If you need time to reset, come home to your self then I can really recommend this retreat. I have attended a few of Katie’s 8 week Mindful courses and day silent retreats. I encourage you to enrol straight away if you are called to take time out for your self. I am silently very excited 🥰🤣🤣🤣
Mindful Living Retreat
Rest, Relax, Rejuvenate and Release
Allow the Earth to ground you, the Sky to whisper on the Wind to you, and the Sea to bathe your Soul.
Experience this wellbeing and contemplative weekend in a beautiful environment at Moanariri, surrounded by native plantings, bush, farmland and the sea. Just as the tides ebb and flow, a woman’s body, mind and soul are forever growing and evolving like the constantly changing landscape. On this retreat you will learn skills for wellbeing and ways to nourish the body and mind.
With Katie, take the opportunity for contemplative walks, meditation, time out and sharing women’s wisdom. And gather with Kristin in the kitchen to prepare nourishing nutritional whole foods that are easy to prepare and make at home. This retreat is about YOU, for YOU,- putting YOU first so you can care for those you love and work with
