Unlock more of the great power, wisdom and love within your body and receive what is already there, for then you can offer it the world.
Your body is a stunning and remarkable instrument and the sheer force of Life itself throbs and thrums within, longing to sing, dance, collaborate and create. Stress, tension, trauma, illness can all restrict this flow of energy and creativity but thankfully, powerful tools and practices are available which enable us to release what is blocking us from knowing and being our power and expressing ourselves authentically and meaningfully.
In this unique retreat experience, we learn practices and tools you can use for the rest of your life and we begin to heal through breathwork, somatic movement therapy, reiki and tantra. It is not a maybe, you WILL access new sensations, insights, perspectives and pleasure.

REIKI
Reiki is a simple, natural and safe method of spiritual healing, self-regulation and self-care.
Through reiki, we receive the lifeforce energy around us, the energy that flows through all living things, the energy from the sun and the cosmos, the oceans and the earth. This balances and strengthens our own lifeforce.
Our lifeforce is responsive to thoughts and feelings. It becomes disrupted by negative thoughts or feelings we hold about ourselves. These negative thoughts and feelings attach themselves to the energy field and cause a disruption in the flow of life force. This diminishes the vital function of the organs and cells of the physical body.
Reiki heals by flowing through the affected parts of the energy field and charging them with positive energy. It raises the vibratory level of the energy field in and around the physical body where the negative thoughts and feelings are attached. This causes the negative energy to break apart and fall away. In so doing, Reiki clears, straightens and heals the energy pathways, thus allowing the life force to flow in a healthy and natural way. Reiki is extremely helpful in working with Tantric Energy and supports the expansion and growth that comes with it.
THE ATTUNEMENT
The ability to channel Reiki energy is transferred to the student by a Reiki Master during an attunement process.
By receiving an attunement you will gain a valuable tool for self-healing and self-regulation and also become part of a group of people who are using Reiki to share peace, love and expand universal consciousness with others and the Planet. It is a beautiful, relaxing and deeply nurturing experience and I am delighted to be able to share it with you.
