Refresh your soul, Rediscover your sparkle and Re-connect with your reality
A Retreat means taking time out to think, meditate, pray, to focus on the needs of your soul and to attend to the sacred, you. It may also mean creating a space to sort out a problem or turn around a difficult state of mind. The traditional practice is to be apart for a time of serenity and seclusion, alone, or with like-minded others, under a Director, who is there to guide and support you.
I facilitate two retreats for women every year, in beautiful Safety Bay, Western Australia. Enjoy your own room with en-suite, delicious meals and nurturing silence. All this together with meditations, brief addresses to create a focus, and one on one consultation should you require it.
My retreats are unique in the first place because they are genuinely silent. I know that we only really begin to get into the silence if it is uninterrupted. If one breaks it up for chat time people are staying involved with the other retreatants and it becomes more ‘encounter group’ than ‘retreat’ as I understand the term. Secondly these week-ends are special and different because they are designed for women, based in women’s experience, women’s issues, and though they are underpinned by our Christian faith the material is based in spiritual/ personal concerns rather than being specific to a particular religious point of view. The women who attend may belong to any church or not have any interests in that direction at all. That is no concern of mine. The best way of finding out what it is all about is to come!
I am happy to conduct retreats for other organisations or groups. Call any time to discuss this possibility.

What Retreatants Have To Say…
Your retreats really are a symbiosis of exhaustingly uplifting new ideas and fabulous interconnections, and relaxing meditations! The energy is at once uplifting and nurturing – I guess it can best be summed up as providing food for thought equally to head and heart.
Thank you for being so talented and so wonderfully generous with it all!
