Anantara Layan Phuket Resort is a unique wellness retreat. Set amidst the lush oasis of northern Phuket, Anantara Layan invites women from around the world to take part in The Goddess Sanctuary, a four-day retreat offering a private haven to help transform themselves and their relationship with food.

The retreat, which will be the first for Mel Wells in Thailand, will encourage emotional, physical and nutritional restoration and relief for women who want to set themselves free of diets and fall in love with their bodies. Mel will use her certification as a Health and Eating Psychology Coach to help women gently transform their mindset and make peace with food. Carefully selected for its location, Anantara Layan will help to bring to life her positive self-love message, encouraging goddess of every type to celebrate themselves and each other in a safe and luxurious environment.

The retreat programme has been out together to ensure that Goddesses will get to embrace the peace and harmony of their surroundings, be nourished by the team of chefs and relax within the glamourous private spaces. The workshops will be an extension of Wells' best-selling book 'The Goddess Revolution', a handbook for women to help them make peace with food, love their bodies and reclaim their lives. It is a collection of tools, mindset shifts and lessons, as well as stories from her own journey and those of other women that she has worked with. One of the most important parts of the transformation is nutrition, so Anantara has worked closely with Mel to offer a dedicated menu of healthy and wholesome dishes and meals throughout the retreat.
