SOL

About us

Two women
stand behind SOL

Two different stories. Two different temperaments. Two paths that, at some point, led us to the same question:

How do we want to live?

We found different answers, but one shared need — more awareness, breath, space, and true connection with ourselves.

From that connection, SOL was born.

For years, I lived in the rhythm of work, obligations, and constant doing. I worked in corporate media, and after the birth of my child I decided to stop and look for my own path — a more conscious life, on my own terms.

That was when I began to discover how much a moment of silence can change. Meditation, yoga, energy work, healthy eating, and natural ways of caring for myself became part of my everyday life. I started searching deeper — not just for answers, but above all for a stronger connection with myself.

Today I believe that sometimes we need to step away from what we know in order to hear what we really need.

From that need, SOL was born — a space for women who want to slow down, breathe, and return to themselves for a while.

Co-founder of SOL

I have been in love with sport for years. That love took me all the way to the Olympic Games. Sport taught me discipline, strength, and consistency — but above all, it taught me how much we can achieve when we truly commit to what matters to us.

Today I'm still a woman of sport — I love movement, action, and new challenges. I have a restless spirit that for a long time couldn't simply stop. Over time, however, I discovered that real rest is not always found outside of us. Meditation, yoga, and mindfulness became an important counterweight to my pace and taught me that rest can also be a source of strength.

From that need, SOL was born — a space for women who live intensely, love movement and growth, but sometimes need to find silence.

Our principles

Intimate

Small groups of women. Everyone is seen, no one gets lost in the crowd. Each participant experiences her own session individually, guided by a professional.

No pressure

The programme is an invitation, not an obligation. You can stay in silence.

Considered in detail

Comfortable cabins, good food and a thoughtfully paced day.

Let's meet on a retreat

Two autumn retreats — The Pause (9–11.10.2026, Góra Spokoju, Inowłódz) and The Return (16–18.10.2026, Oddechowo, Borzymy).
