When did you last have a full day just for you?

Not ticking boxes. Not being needed. Just — present, quiet, and genuinely connected to yourself. So many of us are burnt out from overdoing and giving so much. We're all craving to have just simple space and time to pause.

The Soul Discovery Day Retreat is a beautifully held day in the lush Noosa Hinterland, designed to help you slow right down and hear what's been waiting to be heard. A whole day where you can step fully into receiving mode.

Sound healing. Soul meditation. Nourishing organic food. Guided ritual and reflection. Small group. Sacred space.

Saturday 18th April 2026
· The Grove - Cooroy Mountain, Noosa Hinterland
All-inclusive · Strictly limited numbers · $450 AUD

“When we are unable to find tranquility within ourselves, it is useless to seek it elsewhere.”
Love this quote by François de La Rochefoucauld.
Speaks to the deep wisdom of the simple practice of solitude... and the tranquil space that's always waiting for us when we stop long enough to feel it.

Nature is always teaching us, and the black swans on our dam always seem to find their own rhythm of solitude and togetherness.

When did you last have a whole day... just for you?

Not rushing. Not checking your phone. Not being needed by anyone.

Just... you.

That’s exactly what the Soul Discovery Day Retreat is.

It’s a fully held day in the Noosa Hinterland — amidst beautiful lush gardens, nourishing organic food, sound healing, guided meditations, cacao ceremony. This offers a real space to slow down and reconnect with yourself.

This day retreat offers the best of what we offer in our longer retreats, but in a format that makes it easier to find the time and space to commit to yourself.

Saturday the 18th of April.
Strictly limited spots.

We hope you can join us! 😊

A walking retreat and pilgrimage through one of Italy's most stunning areas!
We are super excited about this offering, having sourced some amazing places to stay, along the way including organic farms and even a castle!
Slow travel on foot invites a very different way of seeing and being with a place. You get to drop in, breathe, deeply observe, and be with all the hidden secrets of nature. This pilgrimage likewise invites you to more deeply connect with yourself and enjoy all the inspiring and nourishing aspects of a retreat while you walk... it really is the best of both!!

Join us for travel, adventure, challenge... plus contemplation, transformation and recharge.

So excited about our upcoming mind-body reset retreat in the stunning Italian alps later this year. We are partnering with the incredible Buhelwirt eco wellness hotel for this retreat. It's going to be an amazing week of nature connection with forest bathing, alpine hikes and some herbal foraging to yoga, meditation, sauna and massage.
One of the reasons we chose this hotel as our venue was their commitment to and passion for nourishing and 100% organic food...something we also share. When our bodies are nourished with delicious wholesome and natural foods, we can more easily connect with our mind and spirit.
This retreat is going to be the perfect combination of time out for rest and renewal as well as nature connection, adventure and fun.

We hope you can join us! 😊

We love getting out bushwalking on the weekend in the local forests and this time of year has the added bonus of mushrooms! So good at this time of year with the combination of warm and wet weather, the forests are laden with all sorts of goodies!

When last in Europe on pilgrimage we were there for porcini and truffle season - which is very special, but local chantarelles are hard to beat! Chanterelle is the common name of several species of agaricomycetous fungi in the genera Cantharellus, Craterellus, Gomphus and Polyozellus. These fungi are orange, yellow or white, meaty and funnel-shaped. Many species emit a fruity aroma and often have a mildly peppery and delicious taste!

And asks the best questions
This part of you is waiting for you

There's so much to love about Tuscany! Stunning landscapes, divine food, family style hospitality, rich culture and fascinating history. What better way is there to partake in all these gems than journeying on foot as a pilgrimage?
Sacred slow travel invites a whole new connection to self and landscapes - both inner and outer. That's what we love ❤️

Join us in 2026 for a new beginning ✨️

We are on a short break in Sydney, but still love to get out walking every day. We came across a gorgeous bush track along the bay near Willoughby today. So much abundance of nature... from lush ferns and fragrant bush flowers to giant red gum trees, tiny fungi and water monitors (lizards). But the show stealers were of course the birds! When we come home to Australia after trips in Europe we're always welcomed home by our abundant and noisy birds!

Australia is home to about 10% of the world's bird species with almost 50% of these only found in Australia. Our song birds are both rich in colour and unique melodies that are the heart beat of our forests, coastlines and even cities.
The classic kookaburras, cockatoos and lorikeets can be heard here in this little reel!!
We wish you happy days walking outside this season. May you many small joys of discovering nature's abundance in your local area 🍃 🚶‍♂️ 🌳

So love this quote by Frederick Turner ❤️

It takes a moment to sit with and fully grasp the deeper layers of meaning.
Nature is one perennial beauty that generously gives, with little effort and nothing to prove or lose. Pure acceptance, and the simplicity of being with what is.

How do we also find our way to living with nothing to lose and everything to give way?

By understanding and accepting our unique nature and inner beauty, discovering our authentic voice and freely sharing our truth and wisdom with courage and vulnerability, whatever edge we find ourselves on.

When life gets too busy, for too long, we need to slow down, stop and take time out. We aren’t meant to keep pushing through.

Our transformational retreats give you space to breathe again and rediscover your true self.
Guided healing, deep rest, clarity and breakthrough in stunning locations, immersed deep in nature.

The ultimate reset for the mind, body and soul.

Are you ready to feel like you again?
Join us for an incredible journey of self discovery, reflection and recharge.
