ON THE LAND:
A Nature-Led Nervous System Reset
with Brea Segger & Jen Segger
September 15-21, 2026 in Whistler, British Columbia
This retreat is an immersive experience designed to recalibrate the nervous system through intentional movement, nature immersion, and somatic integration.
Set in the mountains of Whistler, this container brings together two complementary disciplines:
guided endurance-based hiking and outdoor leadership, and somatic therapeutic work rooted in nervous system regulation and embodied awareness.
Rather than pushing limits through force or performance, this retreat invites participants into a different relationship with challenge—one that is steady, responsive, and deeply attuned.
Why Join Us In Whistler?
This retreat is designed for those who want to meet themselves through movement, landscape, and direct experience.
Set in the alpine terrain of Whistler, this is an immersive week of epic hiking, exploration, and embodied inquiry. Mornings out in the mountains are paired with somatic integration to help participants understand how their nervous system responds to effort, uncertainty, beauty, fatigue, and awe — in real time.
This is not a retreat about slowing everything down.
It’s about learning how to move through challenge without overriding yourself.
The hikes are co-guided by Brea and her sister, Jen Segger. Jen—an elite endurance athlete, adventure racer, and coach with over two decades of experience—leads with intelligent pacing, terrain awareness, and a grounded relationship to endurance. Brea supports the experience through somatic guidance, emotional attunement, and nervous system awareness, helping participants stay connected to their internal signals as they move. Together, the emphasis is not on performance or comparison, but on cultivating capacity, adaptability, and trust through both body and presence.
Alongside the physical experience, Brea facilitates somatic therapy sessions that help participants track their internal state, notice habitual responses, and integrate what the body is learning through movement. These sessions translate what happens on the trail into practical nervous system skills that can be applied in daily life, leadership, and decision-making.
Together, this work bridges physical stamina and inner regulation — allowing participants to feel strong, present, and internally organized at the same time.
An afternoon at internationally acclaimed Scandinave Spa Whistler supports recovery and integration, reinforcing the understanding that rest is not a reward for effort, but a necessary part of sustainable capacity.
This retreat is for those who:
Want to build endurance with their body rather than against it, reducing cycles of overexertion, shutdown, or burnout
Seek greater steadiness in relationships, communication, and boundaries, especially under stress or responsibility
Are aware of patterns of emotional reactivity, compulsive coping, or internal tension and want to understand how these patterns live in the body
Want to experience challenging, beautiful hikes without performance pressure, meeting effort in a way that feels sustainable and intelligent
Are curious how their nervous system responds under real-world conditions—including uncertainty, fatigue, connection, and awe
Value presence, discernment, and self-trust over pushing, proving, or overriding internal signals
Learn best through direct experience, movement, and embodied awareness rather than theory
You do not need to be an elite athlete. You do need a willingness to engage your body, stay curious, and meet the terrain — internal and external — as it is.
This retreat is an invitation to develop a more honest relationship with effort, resilience, and rest — and to carry that intelligence back into how you move through your life.

What You’ll Leave With.
A regulated, resilient nervous system
A grounded internal rhythm that feels spacious, steady, and calm — not just for the retreat, but as a felt sense you can return to in your daily life.
A softened, reconnected body
The ability to hear your own internal cues again: when to rest, when to move, when to open, when to slow down.
A restored relationship with your feminine
A deeper sense of softness, intuition, and receptivity — without losing your strength or capacity.
Clarity on what truly matters
Space and stillness have a way of revealing truth. You’ll leave with insight into what’s aligned, what’s draining, and what next chapter is quietly calling you.
Tools for real-life regulation
Somatic practices you can actually use — simple, nourishing techniques for grounding, release, and nervous-system reset.
An unshakeable sense of inner enoughness
Not tied to productivity, achievement, or how much you hold for others — but anchored in who you are at your core.
A community of women who understand you
Genuine connection with other high-capacity women who know what it means to lead, to carry, to care — and who are also choosing to return to themselves.
Permission to live in a more easeful rhythm
A felt reminder that you don’t have to push to be worthy, rush to be relevant, or perform to belong.
