Group Coaching Retreat with Galina Singer
SAFE TO BE ME is a transformative retreat for individuals ready to stop performing, start feeling, and reclaim their authenticity in relationships with self and others.
WHAT YOU'LL EXPERIENCE:
Over the course of 6 days/5 nights (October 20 - 25, 2026) in Palmaïa, you'll be guided into deeper self-trust and embodiment through:
- Somatic healing: reconnecting with your nervous system's signals and needs
- Reparenting practices: softening patterns of self-abandonment and cultivating inner safety
- Sacred circle connection: being witnessed, without fixing or performance
- Voice and expression work: releasing shame and reclaiming your truth
- Rest + Nature: time for integration, stillness, and joy
What previous participants are saying:
“I would rank Galina's Safe To Be Me Retreat in Mexico as one of the top 3 life-changing events in my life, following the births of my children and walking the Camino. I feel as if something deep inside me has shifted and freed me from long-held past resentments, anger, and shame. I arrived home feeling lighter and more at peace. Something powerful inside me has shifted, and as a result, relationships that I had struggled with for decades have been unexplainably repaired or greatly improved. Galina has a gift, and words fail me in expressing my gratitude to her for her wisdom, compassion, and guidance."
- S.S
This is not a retreat to become someone new.
It's a retreat to remember who you are when you feel safe enough to be real.
THIS IMMERSIVE RETREAT WILL SUPPORT YOU IN:
- Reclaiming your inner authority and stepping into sovereign self-leadership.
- Exploring the internalized narratives that have shaped your relationships and your sense of identity.
- Identifying and releasing inherited patterns of self-abandonment, codependency, and performance.
- Remembering what authenticity feels like in your body, and how to honor it in your choices.
- Balancing your need for belonging with your devotion to truth and inner alignment.
- Creating space for clarity, connection, and the deeper unfolding of your purpose.
What previous participants are saying:
“Galina Singer's Safe to Be Me retreat in Playa del Carmen, MX October, 2025 was absolutely the best gift I've given myself in my lifetime. The stunning location built on wellness and sustainability, my fellow participants, Galina's wisdom, insight, and guidance, the very applicable activities offered by the resort, the vegan/vegetarian meals, and much more all contributed to life-changing emotional and physical nourishment, healing, transformation, and connection. Each day was filled with safety, wisdom, sharing, authentic support and care, laughter, tears, awe, gratitude, joy, and insight in the most beautiful place filled with sun, sand, water, and an abundance of lush tropical greenery. The transformation of each of us into our own feelings of safety in being who we are and in moving through and beyond what no longer serves us was incredible to witness and to be a part of. With certainty and excitement, I encourage you to join Galina's next retreat!”

THE RETREAT LEADER
Hi, I'm Galina Singer
I am a Relating and Intimacy coach, certified in somatic healing and sexology.
SAFE TO BE ME is a culmination of 15 years of my own growth and healing. I took the essence of what worked and filtered out what didn’t. It is wisdom I accessed through sweat, blood and many tears of my own process and working with hundreds of others.
After over 30 years of marriage, I have upgraded my relationship with my husband. I have become a better mother, a better friend, and now have the privilege of guiding others to building more authentic relationships.
I’ve liberated myself from automatic responses, inherited survival mechanisms and ancestral trauma, karmic patterns, and limiting beliefs about who I am and what is possible for me.
I believe that becoming self-responsible adults, free and safe in our authentic self-expression, is the needed and missing piece in our relationships and in society at large.
What previous participants of in-person retreat with Galina are saying:
“My gratitude is overflowing.
I am still processing and trying to find words. What I know for sure is that was the most significant personal experience I have had since getting married and having children. "
- JB
“Incredible!!! Highly highly recommend! As one who went, it has changed my life, truly. If you're on the fence, do it! Give the gift to yourself.”
- HC
“Feeling safer than l've ever felt! This was an incredible retreat & re-entry to myself. Oceans of love and gratitude to Galina and these wonderful women.”

THE DESTINATION
Exactly a year ago, my husband and I let go of all of our possessions and came to Playa del Carmen, Mexico, where we currently spend majority of our time. I have never felt happier. We absolutely fell in love with this place. I want to share some of its beauty and culture with you!
Welcome to Palmaïa - The House of AïA
A Sanctuary for the Soul
Strategically situated at the southern end of the most beautiful beach in Playa del Carmen, Mexico, and surrounded by more than 400 hectares of virgin jungle, Palmaïa is a private, safe, and exclusive location that offers a sanctuary for those seeking tranquility.
This is more than a luxury resort - it’s a sanctuary for transformation, offering a sacred, eco-luxury environment intentionally designed for deep healing, awakening, and conscious connection.
Soulful design, plant-based cuisine, sound healing, and a wellness philosophy rooted in ancient rituals, Mayan wisdom and modern spirituality, create a setting where time slows down - and self-inquiry unfolds naturally.
Being at Palmaïa allows you to detoxify your body, purify your mind, and reignite your soul.
HOLISTIC CUISINE
The Nourishing Biome is a unique food program available only at Palmaïa, where every meal is designed for optimal health. We simply remove the most toxic ingredients from the modern food system. Our menus consist of a healthy integrative food offering that promote various health benefits,
including weight loss, reduced inflammation, stress relief and longevity. Each dish is always tasty, creative, and freshly prepared.
From vegan tacos to upscale Mediterranean, you have access to all of the restaurants, bars, and room service available. Including
beachside drinks, a taco truck, a standalone coffee and juice cafe, in addition to room service and sit-down meals.
SPA & WELLNESS
The Atlantis SPA draws on the healing powers of nature to create rejuvenating experiences.
Using the philosophy that emotions are the root cause of physical pain, emotional and mental stresses are treated with ancient rituals such as Temazcal ceremonies and reiki healing before taking a refreshing dip in the hidden cenote.
Centered around ancestral traditions and natural healing methods, the Spa fosters connection to nature and ultimately, relaxation.
ACCOMODATIONS
Immerse yourself in mindful luxury. All suites are designed to make you relax and feel connected to the natural elements within and around Palmaïa.

An Optional Post-Retreat Extension
Some previous participants found staying in the hotel for additional 1 or 2 nights post retreat of great benefit - to integrate the material, to deepen transformation, to let their insights land without rushing back into daily life. I am now offering it as an intentional option for those interested to have more time to ground and process. Reach out to me directly, and I will help you arrange your extended stay.
What previous participants are saying:
“I’m so thrilled to have done the Safe to Be Me Retreat with Galina. It was a total sensory experience that gave me such deeper access into my own body, its wisdom and memories. I was able to connect with the parts that wanted to let go and heal. And I was also able to connect with the parts that wanted to expand and be seen and the part of me that felt ready to open and receive love. The presence of each woman who attended felt sacred in that each came completely as themselves and with total honesty in sharing difficult & often hidden parts of themselves. This created such an atmosphere of trust. I don’t think I’ve ever felt anything like it. This was truly a week of healing and renewal. ”
