You know exactly what is wrong. Your shoulders still live next to your ears.
11 to 14 February 2027 · A small castle in Bensheim · 10 women only (4 spots available)
Anger. Grief. Joy. Four days to feel all of it, out loud, in your body, with women who stay.
An initiation into your sensual soft power and your raw truth, without losing your edge.
Sends you to Telegram to message me to find the best payment option for you. €1666, or €1777 with the 1:1 container. Flexible payment plans available at no extra cost.
You have done the therapy. You have done the circles, the journals, the books, the breathwork.
You have language for everything. You can explain your patterns better than most people can explain their jobs.
And still you say yes when your body says no. Still you apologise for taking up space. Still you hold it all together and call it strength.
You are not lazy. You do not need more insight. Your body learned a long time ago that safety comes from being useful, calm and in control. So even now, softness feels risky and rest feels like dropping the ball.
This retreat is where that loop ends.
You do not come to understand it again. You come to live it, in your body, with women who witness you.
Four days. Ten women. One small castle.
You take the mask off. You say the true thing out loud and someone hears it. You move, shake, cry, laugh and rest until softness feels safe in your body. You meet the good girl who worked so hard to be loved, you hold her, and you let her go. You step into the Raw Rebel and name her.
You do not arrive to be fixed. You arrive to be witnessed, expressed, released and claimed.
Ten women, not forty. I keep it at ten because I would not feel safe, held or looked after in a bigger room. Neither would you. Ten means nobody disappears in the crowd, and I am present with every single woman.
A small castle that feels like a home. Cosy corners everywhere. Soft blankets, warm tea, a room to curl up in. You get your own single room.
Women who come back. Five of the women already in the room were at our last retreat. They chose to come back.
One woman holds the whole thing. Every practice, every ritual and the whole journey is held by me. I do the small things too, like the tea and the welcome. You will feel it.
Come as you are. Be seen as you are. You arrive uncurated and uncomposed, name what you have been holding and say it out loud. Unshaming here is expressed, embodied and freeing.
You release: self censorship, the strong one mask.
You reclaim: self honesty, safety in being seen.
Soft power is the strength to hold rage, grief, joy, play and stillness in the same body. You move, shake and let emotion take the space it needs. On the other side, softness feels safe again.
You release: suppressed emotion, control.
You reclaim: softness, pleasure, play.
The day of choosing. You meet the good girl, thank her and let her go. Then you step into the Raw Rebel, name her out loud and feel what she is no longer available for.
You release: people pleasing, old identity rules.
You reclaim: standards, self respect, desire.
This is where it becomes normal. You move, celebrate and let joy exist without earning it. You anchor it at home, in your relationships and in your work. You leave initiated, and the weeks after build on it.
You release: going back to "normal".
You reclaim: a life that feels like yours.
Everything is included. You bring yourself.
Three nights in the castle in Bensheim.
Your own single room. Shared bathrooms.
Hot tub and sauna.
A 60 minute massage for every woman.
Every practice, ritual and the full initiation journey held by me.
A candlelight dinner of the senses.
A Raw Rebel embodiment photoshoot, with edited images to take home.
Ritual materials, gifts and embodiment anchors to take home.
Fabian, our private chef, cooking vegetarian ayurvedic food that feeds your body, mind and soul. All meals and drinks included.
Before the retreat: a private WhatsApp group so you meet the women before you arrive, a call together before we meet, a gentle prep guide (PDF) and a dietary form so the food is right for you.
After the retreat: the WhatsApp group stays open for one week, and we meet again on a call one month later, so it keeps landing in real life.
"It truly is a gift I give myself: a place to slow down and connect with myself (to feel the feelings and emotions that surface), with a community of like-minded women, and with nature."
"Things come to the surface, I share as much or as little as I want, I am witnessed and then come an enormous release. This being witnessed is truly so healing to me. That's why I keep coming back."
"There were so many practices and rituals that I really enjoyed, and some of them even surprised me a little."
"And I really enjoyed the company of the other women and the conversations we had."
Paulina Burzynska
I am Paulina, founder of Raw Rebellion. I am a somatic liberation guide, yoga teacher and cacao ceremony facilitator, trained in trauma informed approaches and Neuro Yoga.
I have been doing this work since 2020. I have taught over 1000 hours of classes, hosted 9 retreats and supported hundreds of women through my classes, my community and my emails.
I was born in Poland, grew up in the UK and have lived in Germany since I was 21. I guide women out of the Strong One mask and back into their body, their truth and their soft power.
At this retreat I hold every practice and every ritual myself. Ten women, one host. You will know exactly who is in the room with you.
Six women have already said yes. Four spots are left.
The hard part is not the days away. It is putting something in the calendar months ahead and giving yourself permission. Theresa, who is coming back for her 3rd retreat, put it like this: "I had to remind myself that it's okay to prioritize myself in this way."
February is the month everyone else is still tired from Christmas and quietly gone off their January promises. You walk into it with a place already held for you, in a castle, with ten women who get it.
The spots go one by one. Yours is next.

Crying is welcome here, and so is staying quiet. You share as much or as little as you want. Nobody is put on the spot and nobody is pushed. You are witnessed, not managed.
You are not asked to believe anything. The work is in the body: moving, shaking, breathing, resting, saying the true thing out loud and being heard. There are rituals too, and a candlelight dinner. You take what lands and leave what does not.
