Meet Louise
Your curator
Louise has been practicing yoga, meditation and pilates for over 20 years. She has a doctorate in nature conservation and is a passionate advocate for the healing power of nature.
Her mission is to provide a seamless experience for retreat hosts. As well as a safe and supportive space where people can connect to nature and a deeper understanding of themselves.
Louise grew up on the property and has intimate knowledge of the region. She has lovingly crafted Bowen Mountain Retreat into a haven for like minded creators to create healing experiences. The house was built by owner Louise’s father and filled with original artworks created by her mother. Louise’s parents lovingly planted the gardens and forests on the property to support wildlife and create a sense of peace. It’s Louise’s dream to share with you the beauty her parents created.
