Grandmother Oya, with husband Michael, have created a sacred container that truly supports and nurtures deep healing, joyful self-discovery and awakening. The sanctuary serves as a refuge, an incubator for body and soul and a practice ground for the pioneering spirit to explore, express and experience new ways of tending the ground of being and the tender shoots

that grow from this rich soil:


Each retreat is a wellspring of blessings,  a unique jewel of discovery and potent medicine that tenderly opens hearts and minds; Every moment is fresh and alive with possibility and a celebration of what it means to liberate from the limited sense of self into something deeper, more true, more compassionate, more aligned with the sacred song of the soul;


A Red Earth Retreat is a gift you really should give yourself


Calendar for 2025 ~ Themed Retreats



  "Meaning is what calls from the depths of our soul, the song that sings us into life, -

Whether we have a meaningful life depends upon whether we can hear this song,

this primal music of the sacred" ~

Body of Wisdom - Women's Spiritual Power and How it Serves


A Restorative and Regenerative  Retreat for Women


What are the seeds that will allow the new story of 'She' to come fully alive, to flower and flourish? The emergence of a new narrative is tied to the mystery of evolution, with each woman contributing her unique nectar in this great unfolding. The soul of the living Earth calls upon women to embody our purified, passionate nature, true sensitivity and innate feminine wisdom. By reconnecting with a deep ecology of consciousness, we can awaken the magical awareness, healing, and  soul medicine essential to cultivate and  nurture a fresh, open and respectful connection with our precious bodies

while honoring  and safeguarding the Soul of the Earth and all creatures


RUMI ~

“The divine feminine is the warrior and the healer…

in a beautiful dance of strength and vulnerability.”

  Don't Worry - Be Present link

                                                               Finding Wholeness

          "Once we can radically accept who we are, we can grow in any direction we choose.”


"If we just open ourselves up to the world, leave a gap in our storyline ~ take a pause from our thoughts, we can see more, hear more, taste and feel more. “Once you open, you’re open to the whole thing — both the sorrow and the beauty. It’s a whole different experience of being alive.”


   Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow 

    it empties today of its juice, joy and possibility"


Meet difficulty with courage and confidence from the smallest annoyances to the greatest upheavals, learn to dwell in the strength of bold vulnerability, where we might learn to see our most stubborn obstacles from the 'sacred view' as potent teachers and become a source of joy for yourself and others ~  Be the guide to your  mind , befriend your mind and  bring relaxation to the body

and  restore calm to your life

 

Awareness 'IS' Key

   Oneness Blossoming link


The Benevolent Unknown


"Meaning is not something that belongs to us; rather, our life becomes meaningful  when we live

The blossoming of oneness"



Oneness is very simple and spectacular ordinary: everything is embraced and permitted to live in harmony and according to its true nature- This is the truth that is unfolding, the chance that is presented to us. The extent to which we seize this opportunity hinges on our level of engagement, the willingness we have to step from the story we tell ourselves, and our dedication to the truth;

 

 "The beauty you see in me is a reflection of you." ~ Rumi

When Love Dances  link


Enter Wakefulness


"greatness of heart"—a courageous love that allows us to meet pain with

compassion and stand steady in the face of life’s difficulties. explore how to deepen and expand this courageous love so that we can respond to challenges with wisdom and care


taking the arrows out of our hearts and  return to the simplicity of  belonging and freedom


untangling the knots that hold you back from embracing your deepest nature 

your indestructible core of love, courage, and intelligence. the place of balance, belonging

and well being  that benefits you and those around you.


All of us want, or need, to be loved. The need for love is one of the most basic human impulses

Love is life’s greatest gift. We seek for love, and yet it is all around and within us. It belongs to the oneness of life, every dewdrop on every leaf, the spider spinning its web, and the soft gaze upwards at the stars. If we open our senses, open our hearts, we can feel its presence. Love is life speaking to us of its real mystery. And in that conversation, so many things can happen, so many miracles  born, the small unsuspecting miracles that we often do not notice—



"the very centre of your heart is where life begins, the most beautiful place on earth"

~Rumi

Earth Beneath Our Feet link


Oxygen for the Soul ~ Nourishment for Spirit


           Balance personal well-being with clear grounded heart-centred, and sacred action 

                           


Our soul is starved from its natural connection to the sacred that deep knowing we belong -The substance of the sacred is woven into the fabric of existence and belongs to the deepest promise of creation and that life is not just a survival game but a passionate

celebration of love, the divine and nature 


Returning we may find a balance resurfacing from deep within, a balance that reconnects and restores us and  allows us to contribute in unseen ways.



Rumi~

You are more valuable than heaven and earth,

what can I say, you don't know your own worth
