Retreat (rɪˈtriːt)

noun

1. an act of moving back or withdrawing.

In our overwhelming and ever-changing world, the need to retreat has never been greater than now.

To attend a retreat, or to retreat, is a way of stepping back from ordinary living to take time to renew,  reflect, and recentre one’s life. Guided by ancient wisdom and modern science, our retreats offer a revolutionary wellness experience that assists the journey towards self-discovery, healing and transformation for liberated performance.

Our spiritual and plant medicine healing retreats are an opportunity to take a step back from one’s daily life, to sensitise oneself to their current state in order to identify the origins of pain, suffering, release tension and negativity from the mental and emotional bodies, illuminating one’s path, and restoring spiritual vision, heightening intuition, bringing a life of health, creativity and purposeful contribution to the forefront.

Retreat Packages 2022/2023

5 days, 4 nights. Limited to 10 couples per retreat.

At the heart of every relationship is two people with different wants, needs and desires. Many of us find ourselves on the never-ending pursuit for the perfect partnership. We want to find a person with whom the honeymoon phase will never end. 

If you’re like many of our coaching clients, you want your partner to see you for who you really are, you want mutual trust, admiration, respect, passion, play, safety and freedom. You want it all. Who can blame you? You deserve the best! 

But let’s face it, most of us have never seen a “perfect relationship” let alone experienced one. We might have no idea how to actually build a relationship that gives us all those feelings we want to feel – like feeling confident, alive, energised, grounded, supported, clear, and sexy.

Instead, many of us find ourselves entering into a relationship with our “dream partner” only to find ourselves back on the hamster wheel of power-struggles and disappointments.

Not all relationships are meant to last, but there’s a secret that many couples don’t know. 

That sometimes when they’re in the power-struggle phase, they’re facing one of their most potent opportunities to level up. Not just in how they operate in relationships, but in all areas of their lives.

An Intentional Relationship is not something we go out and “attract”, it’s something we co-create, and it’s not always easy, but the fruit of the labour is ultimate fulfilment, and less distraction from chaos so you can focus on what you’re here to do… whether that’s generating wealth to be of service in the world, building and raising a healthy family, or both.

Great relationships take commitment, intention and work. We’re here to guide you through the inner-work so that you and your partner can individually learn what it takes to cultivate a healthy and lasting Intentional Relationship.

If you’re ready to turn your relationship into a container for growth and expansion while also getting the opportunity to feel fully heard, seen and understood by the one you love, then join us for a full week of deep, soul immersion in a safe and vibrant space!

How will the world respond to a new model of masculinity, that is emotionally open and available, willing to be vulnerable, unassuming and not interested in power or control?

Most men feel a sense of wounded masculine energy. Whether originating from a father wound, or from being told all of their lives that their masculinity was inherently bad, something to be ashamed of. 

Most boys grow up today being told that being a man is bad. That men are evil, violent, aggressive and oppressive. Most boys grow up feeling a sense of disdain for their gender, feeling a complete lack of self-respect, and secretly wishing they’d been born women. 

Wounded masculine energy represents the pain men feel inside towards their own masculinity. During this immersive retreat, you will dive deep into the relationship between masculine and feminine energies, and specifically finding ways to heal the unconscious wounds. Going through a process of embodying your masculine and feminine energies, you will embark on a journey of connecting back with your inner child, facing your shadows and revealing the challenges and traumas you faced. Whether you suffered from a father wound, and absent father, an abusive relationship, or you generally lack confidence in your desire to be a man, you will rekindle that relationship with your inner child, to find peace, and to find healing.

Over the three days, you will attend a variety of group workshops that will explore the following topics;
– Shaping Masculinity
– The Masculine Emotion
– Shamanic practice for the Integrated Man
– The Four Insights
– Ancestral wounds and inherited trauma
– The polarity of energies
– Sex, sexuality and intimacy
– The marriage of polarity
– Toxic Masculinity and masculine shadows

The womb houses the greatest power a woman possesses, the power to create on all levels. As women, we are aware of our power to give birth to human beings, but this power can be channelled in to giving birth to projects, personal healing, spiritually and healthy relationships.

The Womb Wisdom retreat supports you to open to your womb’s energetic pathways, clear your past, release toxic emotions, activate your sacred sensual self, bring balance into your relationships and harness your creative potential. It is a gift of reawakening.

This absolutely ah-mazing 3 nights, 3.5 days retreat will empower us with the tools to walk purposely & intentionally in our  authenticity by spiralling back into the womb space to heal and be reborn into our authentic soul’s purpose. 

We will participate in a variety of activities, events, classes, etc that will push us beyond our comfort zone and help face our fears, unpack our traumas and wounds, undo ancestral imprints and so much more!  This pow-her-full retreat is limited to those of us who are really serious about healing their lineage while changing our legacy! 

Our womb holds the power! It is the gateway to magic, creation, birth, and life!  We cannot bring forth healthy life with an unhealthy and wounded womb.

This retreat is centred around individual and/or group soma healing experiences, which will be combined with extensive one-on-one work with facilitators and guides to prepare for the retreat, and then to integrate the insights, emotional shifts, and spiritual gains of the retreat into your regular life after it is done. Safety and support is prioritised within the context of a wholistic program of activities that emphasises connection to nature and the self, and incorporates personal and group ritual.

Clinical and psychological research strongly suggests that psychedelic-assisted therapies using medicines like psilocybin are powerfully effective in treating grief- and trauma-related emotional and mental distress. In practice, our group has seen that psychedelic-assisted therapies are a supremely powerful tool to facilitate healing for bereaved individuals on a mental, emotional, and spiritual level. Many for whom no other kind of grief therapy or intervention has helped, have found real, durable healing in a lovingly guided psychedelic experience.

Client Testimonials

“In November 2020, I spent an amazing weekend with the most incredible women! Having never done anything like this before, I was both excited and nervous! However, being in this magical circle for 2 days allowed me to explore and express myself in ways I have never done before! I was able to release everything that I’ve been holding inside for many, many years! To become vulnerable and raw, emotional and free! Although Kerry is my eldest daughter, that weekend she was my teacher! She held space for me in the most beautiful environment, allowing me to deal with what I needed to let go of, and heal! It was a truly magical experience and one that I would highly recommend, and I and would definitely do again!” – Debbie, South Africa.

“I can’t begin to express what this experience encompassed and meant for me. It was one of the most heartfelt, eye-opening, soul-soothing, rewarding experiences I’ve ever had. I felt totally safe, welcomed and appreciated in the group. I felt a deep connection with all of the women and very related with many of their stories. I was extremely moved and touched throughout the circle as well as totally uninhibited and free during the ceremony. I witnessed first hand that vulnerability is not weakness and that it is the most courageous thing we can do and best means of connections with others.
Kerry, I can’t express enough how grateful I am for you for facilitating this incredible, amazing retreat! I can’t honestly imagine anyone leading this as well as you did, as at home as I felt and as relaxed as I was. You are kind, caring, approachable, relatable, aware of everything and everyone. I could go on and on, but what I want to express is that a great part of this amazing, life-changing experience we all lived during the retreat was because of you. I left the retreat with a feeling of pure wonder for the world around me which is more than I could of ever asked for. I also found a deep love and acceptance of my inner self.” – Mellory, Durban.

“Wow! The weekend was perfect in ever way. I feel absolutely amazing! Everything feels so much cleaner and clearer. I feel so much love and appreciation for each and every person within the container, all sharing such a magical, powerful, playful, gentle and safe space. Time has dissolved this week into a river of moments. It was more than I could ever have imagined!” – Kalanit, Durban South Coast.

“Kerry, what an extra powerful container you created. I am deeply grateful to have spent time in that space. It has revealed in waves just how gentle and powerful it was – the medicine, the learnings, the energy. Like the layers of petals of the ever blossoming flower within. Meeting you, and everyone is that magical container, was simply Divine! I remember who I am!” – Jess, Durban South Coast.

“What a phenomenal group of warrior women. I am beyond grateful to have shared this space with each and every woman that attended this weekend. Being connected to the deep and powerful fire that runs with me and connects me to my womb has been liberating! Haux Haux.” – Cayla, Cape Town.
