Harnessing the healing power of nature and the Ancestors...

Immerse into a weekend of sacred women’s circle, women’s initiation and ceremony on the Sacred Lands and Waters of Mystery Bay, nestled at the foot of the Sacred Gulaga Mountain. This weekend is an invitation into building a deeper connection to your own body, to our Earth Mother and to the potent wisdom of Nature.

We will take part in a Traditional Sacred Letting Go Ceremony in this sacred place. The ceremony harnesses the power of the four elements, to deeply cleanse the body, mind and spirit. The women spirits, and healing power of the Spirit of the Land support deep transformation. This ceremony forms a strong basis of this weekend retreat, the perfect preparation for the planting of seeds of intention for the new Moon.

As you are held by the power of the Sacred Gulaga Mountain and surrounding lands and waters, and Grandmothers that watch over Mystery Bay, you will journey deep into your connection to your own personal connection and communication with the land, your own body, and the power that unfolds inside of us as we connect to the healing power of nature.

Through this deeper space with yourself, and the Spirit of the Earth and Creation, you can cultivate a profound sense of trust in the unfolding of life, and know the depth of these connections that hold you through life’s changing tides.

This retreat is for you if you want to...

• Be part of an Ancient Letting Go Ceremony, that supports you to let go of anything that has been weighing on you or continues to distract you from your true nature.

All my programs open a gentle, sacred and safe container for all women, of all ages, abilities, sexualities, faiths and beliefs and cultures.

Trauma informed

This is a trauma informed program, designed to give you freedom to choose and explore in a way that feels right for you:

Everything in this workshop is an invitation. The offerings are carefully designed to support you to explore yourself, your relationship to others, to your creativity and to life. If there are any experiences you do not wish to take part in, I will work with you to either support you to be involved in a way that feels good for you, and the group, or to find a different offering that feels nurturing for you in its place.

This retreat is accessible regardless of your physical ability. Please get in touch if you would like to discuss this.

Our Community

I believe that being a part of a strong and supportive community of women is a powerful foundation on the journey of self-discovery. Sharing stories, being seen and heard, witnessed, and witnessing other women’s journeys, validates who we are, and can give us strength on our journeys in the weird, wonderful and diverse experience that is Life.

This community offers weekly opportunities, and three monthly Re-Treats to connect with other women through meaningful and uplifting experiences, and social connection and community. When women come together as a group with a supportive intention, magic happens. Our community includes women from all walks of life. The diversity offers a rich tapestry of our humanity and womanhood, to celebrate, and learn more about ourselves as women.

YOUR ACCOMMODATION OPTIONS

Guests should know that the camp sites are unpowered, whilst I don’t encourage use of phones during the retreat, you should bring a car charger if you require. My phone number can be given to your loved ones in case of emergency. It is an opportunity and an invitation to really connect with yourself and your surroundings without the interruption of technology.

The retreat also has cold showers only, and our beautiful big blue ocean of course, for bathing. Bring a hot water bottle if you are concerned being cold in the evening, however given it will be almost summer, it should be mild weather.
