Seasonal 1-Day Embodiment Retreats
Because you're ready to rest. Collectively, life is speeding up. Exhaustion is a common thread. Connection on screens trumps real life warmth, joy, community and present moment attunement. Individually, it's time to slow down and tend to the quiet voice inside that is calling you home.
My seasonal one-day Embodiment Retreats are an invitation to deepen the relationship between the earth, your mind and your body. This is your invitation to gather together with a small group of womxn seasonally, in circle in our rainforest studio and surrounds, creating a safe container to come home inside your body. Each one-day retreat will focus on a seasonal theme and will include, journaling, gentle movement, symbolic and eco-somatic practices to gently guide you back into earth, mind, body unity.
As always, there'll be reserved places for mob at reduced cost, or scholarship. Just reach out for a yarn.

Somatic Sovereignty Series
Earth, Mind, Body Unity
FOLLOW YOUR IMPULSE: Find Your Flow
Friday, 30th October, 2026
10.00am - 4.00pm
Our impulses are the body's innate intelligence guiding us toward protection, connection, completion and vitality. Yet many of us have learned to override or suppress these natural responses in order to survive. In this experiential workshop, you'll explore how to recognise, trust and safely follow your authentic impulses through somatic practice, helping to restore resilience, spontaneity and a deeper sense of aliveness.
THE TOUCH WE LONG FOR: Nourishing the Protectors Inside
Friday, 27th November, 2026
10.00am - 4.00pm
Touch is one of our earliest languages of safety, connection and belonging. When nurturing touch has been absent, inconsistent or unsafe, its effects can echo throughout our lives. Drawing on NeuroAffective Touch® principles and trauma-informed somatic practice, this workshop explores how therapeutic touch can gently support repair, helping to restore a felt sense of safety, nourishment and connection within ourselves and in relationship with others.
