Waterfall Retreat

Enter this sacred Atlantic rainforest waterfall glen & be guided back into a sense of wholeness, nourishment and tranquility on a journey to recenter and reconnect to soul, land & tribe.  

Follow the river to the waterfall portal said (& experienced) to be a gateway between worlds. This is where we find each other for a weekend of deep nourishment and transformation guided by our bodies, ancient Daoist practices, song, ceremony, mantra and indigenous plant medicine. 
 

Expect a deeply nourishing and transformative weekend where you will be infused by the magic of medicine music as night falls at a private waterfall ritual of cleansing and rebirth, work with indigenous plants for a rebalancing of your system and be held by this deeply sacred land and heart centred community. 

If you’re ready for it, return home melted open to the medicine of your own heart and a knowing of the deeper truth residing in your bones. 

“One of the best things I've ever done in my life. So grateful to have met so many like-minded souls that were also on their journeys in life. My heart is brimming with joy as I write this.” ★★★★★ Jonathan

Some of the practices you will experience for re-balancing and a dropping into the nourishment of your body, mind and spirit: Plant ceremony & ritual, Elemental QiGong & Ancient Daosit practices, embodiment & intuition practices, breath work, somatic practices for resetting the nervous system, heart cohesion work, deep nature immersion, song and vocal/creative expression, mantra, dream work and the tending and attuning to the deeper parts of ourselves that are seeking deeper balance, nurture and love.

"Already a month after it happened, the *peak* experience of connection at this retreat still permeates every fiber of my being. I still find astounding how they managed to create such a bubble of heightened consciousness over a weekend where connecting with one's self and the rest of beautiful souls on the same journey felt as easy and fulfilling as it could get.

A bit about this place: 

St. Nectan's glen is steeped in myth and legend, from King Arthur to portals to the otherworld. This is a very potent place to be working on ourselves and connecting to the elemental world and our connection to ourselves and spirit. A place of Druidic magic and pilgrimage, the mystical nature of St, Nectan's glen is palpable. Gaining private access to the falls outside of visiting hours to conduct our ritual and connect to this place at night is a very powerful way of connecting to the magic found here.
