Discover and embrace more of your 'Shadow Self'. This dynamic and supportive circle will "hold you" so you can uncover and challenge more of your out-of-date belief systems that create your repetitive self-destructive behaviours. We will create and participate in ceremony, self-exploration and self-discovery and practise stilling ourselves to listen deeply to the voices of wisdom within and around us.....Call your Spirit back from whatever drains your passion. Wrap yourself in self-kindness and tenderness.
Remember what you are really here for......♡
"………it is from those who walk beside us that we gain the strength and the courage to remain true to our purpose. ………in the presence of a person who is real you take off your veils of illusion…" ~

where you'll be in bali
Our Retreat is in the perfect and magical environment of Bali that we just adored so much in January that we can't wait to return. Our Retreat is a sanctuary just 10 minutes out of wonderful Ubud and is a villa complex set in beautiful gardens surrounded with lush green jungle with valley views and the Agung river below. There are a number of separate
houses with each building offering privacy. Rooms are twin or triple share and will be allocated on "first come first served" basis.
PRE-REQUISITE: READING EAT PRAY ♡LOVE BY ELIZABETH GILBERT :)
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.....
It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?
Actually, who are you NOT to be.........?
As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others." ~ Marianne Williamson

This RETREAT is for YOU to Explore and Celebrate Your many Strengths and Gifts and to give You
an opportunity to:-
- Reflect on where You are in Your life right now – Asking:“Who am I?”- what is showing up in your life - your habits, your patterns. Ask am I living my life authentically/being fully me? Am I being the best possible me?
- Formulate your goals, desires, hopes, dreams, visions for the future – “What do I want to do with My life?”
- Discover What’s blocking me?” and receive guidance/coaching/ processes to explore and unravel obstacles, barriers, false out-dated beliefs and conditioning that are limiting your growth - making the connection between the frustrations you’re experiencing now and your frustrations in childhood.
- Check in with the different parts of yourself to ensure that the needs of all the parts of You are being heard, honoured and taken into account – particularly the INNER CHILD – “Is my life in BALANCE and expressing the TRUE ME and honouring all my myriad Selves?”
- Break free from self-defeating, addictive behaviours (over-eating, smoking, drinking, working…….etc) and begin to replace them with satisfaction of your real needs.
- Learn new ways to replace your out-of-date 'survival strategies' and defences
- Do lots of REPETITION and experimenting and exercising with the new ways - space and time for PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE!
- Learn and practice never-fail Communication ♡TOOLS, ☆SKILLS & Tips that are of practical use for life
- Practice processes that boost productivity & success in all areas of your life and work
Says a past participant:
"I discovered what has really been going on and how I haven't been able to see the hurtful stuff I've been repeating - I thought it was because of what he was doing!!" ~ Bernie, Seattle.
This work is a big key to unlocking much of the conflict and repeating patterns you
find yourself in..
We will be using written and verbal exercises, sand-tray, meditation and guided imagery, journalling, movement and music and learning communication & assertiveness Skills and new energy techniques that achieve rapid and dramatic changes with stress, anxiety, phobias and trauma, ….. for any emotionally disturbing circumstances or issues.
Take care of your Unfinished Business - unresolved feelings, patterns, beliefs, behaviours, relationships……..
ALL that limits you and prevents you BEING FULLY ALIVE.

WHY YOU'LL LOVE THE RETREAT
"This is most powerful and transformative work because although the couples work gives you the tools to relate at a deeper level, without understanding our own unique unconscious "stuff" one continues stumbling along quite blind in their relationships unaware of what really drives their relationship choices and why we resort again and again to the same self sabotaging defences.
I now realize how important it is to understand your own history (individuals work) as well as grow your relationship skills (couples work) and that without both parts of the puzzle we can't be truly conscious in relationship." ~ Sarcha, Perth.
"Thank you for this amazing work... It started unblocking a lot of not-wanting-to-let-go attitudes and opened up a whole new world, with some fantastic goals to work towards with the help and support of my new friends. Thank you." ~ Sandy Melbourne.
Enormous thanks and gratitude Susie - you have a gift for touching hearts and spreading love xx"
~ Catriona, Brisbane.
"I love the positiveness of direction in relationships and the fulfillment that is achievable by doing the work that you teach. Best of all is that it is achievable in all of us, individuals and couples ♡♡♡" Anne, Perth.
