Uplift your spirits in like-minded company. And positively transform the circumstances and relationships in your everyday life. \n\n\n\nIs this retreat for you? \n\n\n\nSo much of our stress and dissatisfaction in modern life arises because we live in increasingly disconnected\, fearful and reactive ways. If you feel any of this\, you are not alone. \n\n\n\nBy becoming skilfully present with the heart\, you make a profound shift. Responsiveness replaces reactivity. Your actions at home and at work have greater impact. You tend to attract love and opportunities. Life becomes more of a flow than a struggle – and you awaken to your true Self. \n\n\n\nThis retreat is open to men and women (aged 18+) and is beginner-friendly! Complete beginners to meditation as well as those with prior meditation/yoga experience or other spiritual practice\, are welcome. The only prerequisite is a willingness to learn and to be present. \n\n\n\nIf this resonates\, then we’d love to have you along. \n\n\n\nWhat to Expect \n\n\n\nWe will explore guided and silent meditation and mindfulness practices that stabilise the mind and heart\, supported by reflective (and fun!) group activities that allow for practical learning and integration into daily life. \n\n\n\nThere will be a balance of formal guided practice\, self-enquiry and quiet time in nature. The retreat also includes a delicious\, nutritious supper\, buffet lunches\, chai and afternoon snacks\, all lovingly prepared by Grace (Natalie’s Mum!)
