Step Away From Your Busy Life To Calm Your Mind And Fill Your Cup

Immerse yourself for a weekend - in nature, silence & meditative practices to take back into your daily life, to help you find your calm.

Life is busy - it can be difficult to slow down enough to fill YOUR cup.

Do you crave a break from your usual routine, your mobile phone and your chattering mind?

Imagine...stepping away from your devices, from your responsibilities and your worries for 3 glorious days.

Imagine...having your whole weekend planned for you, and all meals prepared by a private chef.

Imagine...what you will discover about yourself in that space: your inner peace, your calm, your clarity and your answers.

I create the time and the space for you to find your calm...for a whole weekend, in the most beautiful spaces in nature.

With your entire schedule planned out for you (with plenty of spare time too) so you don't need to THINK, you don't need to plan. Our private chef will keep your belly very happy with healthy and delicious meals.

Why go on a silent retreat?

This is a common question I get asked. It is difficult to describe the experience, but this video will give you an idea.

The most thoughtful of gifts...

Many of our guests on weekend and one-day retreats are there because a very caring friend or family member realised they need some time out. Life can get overwhelming and a retreat can put things back into balance again.

We can send you a beautiful gift voucher presented in a gold card, for you to give to them, or we can email you a digital copy. They have 12 months to use the voucher on any retreat they like.

You can choose a dollar amount or specify the retreat you'd like to book them in for, or send us a message and we can tailor the perfect retreat experience for your loved one.

A little about me...

Before my life as a retreat and yoga studio owner, I created and ran for 15 years, 3 Day Spas on the Gold Coast. My specialty was bringing groups together for very indulgent Pamper Days...and for the last 8 years I have taken "self-indulgence" to a whole other level with weekend immersions into silence, self-reflection and connection. Giving people the space and tools to slow down in this so very fast paced world.

Teaching people how to easily meditate is a very great love of mine and the results are life-changing for so many people. I look forward to going on a journey into silence with you!
