This retreat is designed for those ready to invest in their health, not just lie by the pool (though you’ll have time for that too). If you’re simply looking for a holiday, this may not be the right fit.

Why Optimal with Dr Liz Retreats?

 

Science. Soul. Strategy.

After decades in healthcare, academia, and international practice - including time in Dubai and India - I came to realise that true, lasting health transformation goes far beyond advice. It requires the right environment: immersive, personalised, and deeply restorative.

At my retreats, I bring together the 3 Ms: Mindset, Menu, and Movement, all grounded in evidence, enriched by ancient wisdom, and delivered with compassion. Set in nature-rich and culturally diverse settings, these retreats offer space to pause, reflect, and realign with your purpose, your energy, and the next chapter of your life.

 - Dr Liz

“You’ll be guided by Dr Liz in an ideal setting designed to nurture your healing, growth, and next chapter of life.”

What Clients Say

"What a saviour! I had been a long-term sufferer of Ross River Fever and had tried everything. Based on Dr Liz’s dietary anti-inflammatory recommendations my aches improved within a few days and subsided within a fortnight. I should have known Dr Liz would have the answer - not only is she THE EXPERT on all things nutrition, she has the credentials and academia to back it up. You've given me the freedom to enjoy all the things I love doing in life." - Caroline Campbell
