Satori Rising with Mandy Maree

16/10/2026

Have you heard of FND?

I hadn’t imagined it would become part of my life, but earlier this year I was diagnosed with Functional Neurological Disorder.

It affects everyone differently. For me, it can feel like my whole body shuts down, particularly my left side. I can become unable to move, with symptoms that resemble a stroke.

Mentally, I can feel okay. Frustrated that my body won’t do what I’m asking, but still very much myself inside.

Since sharing my experience, I’ve connected with other women living with it too.

FND is complex, and I can’t speak for what causes someone else’s symptoms. But my experience has made me reflect on how much we expect ourselves to carry, and how little space we leave to receive support.

We’re working, running businesses, raising children and keeping households going.

We’re meant to be at work by 8.30, but school drop-off is at 9.
Work finishes at 5, but school pick-up is at 3.

Then there’s sport, dinner, washing, bills, appointments and remembering everything for everyone.

Even the lunchbox feels like a bloody performance review.

A Vegemite sandwich, a popper and an apple?
Now we’re comparing sushi bowls, carrot sticks and fu***ng hummus dip. 😂

Somewhere in all that caring, organising and providing… where are YOU?

When did you last receive care without organising it for everyone else first?

When did you last have space to feel what’s been sitting beneath “I’m fine”?

The grief you haven’t had room for.
The hurt you keep pushing aside.
The pressure to hold everything together.
The parts of yourself you miss.

My own experience has deepened the intention behind the spaces I create.

From January 14–17, I’m inviting you to four days at O’Reilly’s in the Queensland hinterland, where you get to be supported too. 🌿

We begin with a welcoming ceremony, gently exploring what you’re ready to put down and what you want to welcome into your life.

Through Spinal Flow sessions, meditation, sound healing and reflection, you’ll have opportunities to turn towards yourself with kindness. To acknowledge what you’ve been carrying and explore what letting go could mean for you, at your own pace.

There will be nourishing meals prepared for you. Time in the rainforest. Quiet moments without another task waiting. Connection with people who welcome you as you are.

My intention is for you to leave feeling more connected to yourself, clearer about what you need and supported in choosing what you want to carry forward.

You deserve care because you matter, too.

If you’ve been craving a space where you can finally receive, message me RETREAT. I’d love to talk with you about joining us. 🤍

ARE YOU CRAVING CONNECTION WITH YOURSELF AGAIN?

You’ve carried so much for so long that you’ve forgotten what it feels like to live without that heaviness.

To wake up without already feeling exhausted.
To enjoy a moment without your mind being somewhere else.
To feel like yourself, beyond everything everyone needs you to be.

Instead, it’s become “same s**t, different day.”

You keep going. Keep giving. Keep holding it together.
And somewhere along the way, you’ve started accepting that this is as good as it gets.

But what if it doesn’t have to stay this way?

Through my work, I’ve supported women who felt overwhelmed, disconnected and depleted. Women who have shared that they’re sleeping better, feeling clearer and finding joy in life again.

Every woman’s experience is different. But being supported can create space for something you may have pushed aside for years: yourself.

You don’t have to explain every painful chapter.
You don’t have to arrive knowing how to let go.
And you don’t have to keep carrying everything alone.

Join me for four days at O’Reilly’s in the Queensland Hinterland, January 14–17, 2027.

Everything is taken care of. No meals to cook. No one to organise. Space to receive instead of give.

Through gentle Spinal Flow sessions, meditation, sound healing and time in the rainforest, you’ll be invited to reconnect within. To meet the grief, hurt and stories you’ve been carrying with compassion. To explore what you’re ready to release—and what you choose to carry forward.

Imagine heading home with more room to breathe. A softer relationship with yourself. A sense of possibility where there used to be only getting through the day.

You deserve to feel held, too.

DM me “RETREAT” for the details.

11/10/2026

Hey you,
I see you pretending you’re okay… when deep down, you feel like you’re hanging on by a thread. 🤍

Getting through another day.
Being who everyone needs you to be.
Waiting for the “right time” to stop—but wondering how much longer you can keep going like this.

Mentally drained.
Physically exhausted.
Constantly tired, even after sleep.

Sometimes the heaviness comes from more than a busy week. It’s the grief you haven’t had space for. The hurt you’ve pushed aside. The years of holding everything together without feeling held yourself.

Babe, you deserve space for those parts of you, too.

This is why I created the Satori Healers Retreat.

Four days to pause, feel supported and begin reconnecting with the woman beneath all the responsibilities.

From our welcoming ceremony, you’ll be invited to set intentions for what you’re ready to leave behind. Through gentle healing experiences, reflection and connection, there is space to explore what you’ve been carrying—and what you want to carry forward.

To find moments of lightness.
To remember your spark.
To honour yourself and your needs again.

With your meals prepared and the rainforest surrounding you, there’s nothing to organise and no one you need to hold everything together for.

Let yourself be held for a change. 🤍

🌿 January 14–17, 2027

What if the life you’ve accepted isn’t actually the life you’re meant to keep living?

You’ve become so used to carrying it that you barely question it anymore.

The grief you never really processed.
The experiences you told yourself you were “over.”
The hurt you buried because life had to keep moving.
The parts of yourself you silenced to keep everyone else happy.

You learnt how to cope.

How to push through.

How to be strong.

How to keep functioning even when something inside you was screaming I can’t keep doing this.

And eventually, survival became normal.

You stopped asking “How do I want to feel?”

And started asking “How do I just get through today?”

But I don’t believe you came here just to get through your life.

Hi, I’m Mandy.

I’m a holistic healer, and I hold space for people who are ready to go deeper than simply feeling better for a few hours.

Because sometimes we don’t need another distraction from what we’re carrying.

We need the space to finally meet it.

That is the intention behind this retreat.

We begin by reconnecting with you.

Not the mum.
Not the partner.
Not the business owner.
Not the person everyone relies on.

You.

From there, the healing journey gently takes you into the layers you’ve been carrying — the stories, grief, hurt, emotions and heaviness that may have shaped the way you see yourself and your life.

Not to relive your past.

But to create space to acknowledge what’s there, process what you're ready for, and begin loosening your grip on what you no longer want defining your future.

And then we move into something beautiful…

Reconnection. Heart opening. Rebirth.

Who are you when you’re no longer carrying everything you thought you had to?

What becomes possible when you stop living entirely from survival?

What do you want your life to feel like from here?

This is where we begin meeting the woman underneath the armour.

The woman who can breathe deeply again.

Who can hear herself again.

Who can choose herself without guilt.

Who feels connected to her body, her heart and what she actually wants.

This retreat isn't about escaping your life for three days.

It’s about creating a line in the sand between what you’ve been carrying…

and what you choose to carry forward.

January 14–16 at O’Reilly’s Rainforest Retreat.

Three days of intentional healing, release, reconnection and integration — held within the rainforest and designed as one complete journey.

You don’t need to become someone new.

Maybe it’s time to come back to the person who was there underneath it all.

DM me HEALING and I’ll send you the details. 🤍

✨ WELCOME TO SATORI HEALERS ✨

I feel like it’s time to reintroduce myself and share the heart behind this space. 🤍

I’m Mandy — a healer, Spinal Flow Practitioner, Reiki Master, business coach and retreat facilitator.

But more than anything, I’m someone who understands how easy it is to spend your life holding everything and everyone else together… and forget that you need somewhere to be held too.

That is the heart behind Satori Healers Retreats.

Our healing retreats are for anyone who feels the calling for deep healing, rest, reconnection and a pause from everyday life.

You don’t need to be in business.
You don’t need to be a healer.
You don’t need to arrive with a goal or something you need to achieve.

You can simply arrive as you are. 🤍

Maybe you’ve been exhausted.

Maybe you’ve been carrying more than anyone realises.

Maybe life has been asking a lot of you lately.

Or maybe something inside you is simply saying…

I need a break. I need to come back to me.

I want these retreats to be a place where you can put everything down for a while.

No meals to cook.
Nothing to clean.
No one needing anything from you.

A space to receive healing, rest deeply, reconnect with yourself and allow someone else to hold the space for you.

✨ And then there is Satori Rising.

Our business retreats are created specifically for women in wellness who love the work they do, but know they’re ready for something more.

More clarity.
More confidence.
More income.
More freedom.
And a business that doesn’t require them to constantly give more of themselves to grow.

These retreats bring together business strategy, coaching, healing and genuine connection so you can step out of the day-to-day running of your business and finally have the space to look at where you’re going next.

Depending on the focus of each retreat, we may work on your marketing and visibility, pricing and offers, multiple income streams, positioning, business growth and the shifts required to move from constantly doing in your business to actually leading it.

The purpose isn’t simply to leave with pages of notes and more things to do.

It’s to leave with clarity around your next level, a plan for how you’re going to get there, and the belief and capacity to actually create it.

Because I don’t believe business growth should come at the expense of you.

Sometimes you need the space to grow.

And sometimes you need the space to heal.

And sometimes… you need both. 🤍

That’s what I want Satori Healers to become.

A home for beautiful in-person experiences where you can step away from the noise, be supported and receive what you need in this season of your life.

🌿 If you’re local to Tamworth, you don’t have to wait for a retreat to experience this work. In-person healing sessions are available through Break Away Beauty, Massage & Wellness in Tamworth, NSW, including Spinal Flow, Reiki, massage and wellness treatments.

So whether you’re here because your body is asking you to slow down…

your soul is asking for healing…

or your business and life are calling you into something bigger…

you are welcome here.

Welcome to Satori Healers. 🤍

HOLDING SPACE FOR HEALING 🌿

You’re exhausted.

Not necessarily the kind of tired that one good night’s sleep fixes.

The kind that comes from holding everything together for everyone else.

You’re the one people rely on.
The one who keeps going.
The one who makes sure everyone else is okay.

But when was the last time you were the one being looked after?

For 3 days, I want to invite you to put it all down.

No meals to cook.
Nothing to clean.
No one needing something from you.
Nowhere else you need to be.

Just space to slow down, receive healing, rest, reconnect and simply be.

🌿 Healing sessions
🌿 Meditation & sound healing
🌿 Time to rest amongst the rainforest
🌿 Nourishing meals prepared for you
🌿 2 nights private accommodation
🌿 A 1-hour massage included

14–16 January 2027
O’Reilly’s Rainforest Retreat, Queensland

This retreat has been intentionally kept intimate so we can create a space where you feel genuinely supported and held.

If something inside you is reading this and thinking...

“I need this.”

Maybe this is your invitation to finally listen to that part of you.

You spend so much of your life holding space for everyone else.

For these 3 days, let us hold space for you. 🤍

When was the last time you truly stopped and gave back to yourself?

Not a quick coffee between appointments.
Not scrolling your phone in bed at night.
Not a weekend spent catching up on everything you've fallen behind on.

I mean really stopped.

No responsibilities.
No expectations.
No being everything to everyone.

Just you.

Because if you're honest, you're exhausted.

You've been holding it together for so long that you've forgotten what it feels like not to be carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders.

You're running on empty.
Your patience is shorter.
Your motivation is gone.
The things you once loved feel like hard work.

And yet you keep telling yourself you'll rest when things slow down.

But what if they never do?

What if the pause your body is craving isn't a luxury?

What if it's essential?

This is why Satori Rising isn't just another retreat.

It's a healing retreat.

A chance to step away from the noise.
To reconnect with yourself.
To breathe deeply again.
To regulate your nervous system.
To release the stress, pressure, and emotions you've been carrying for far too long.

Through healing, connection, business planning, relaxation, and time to simply be, you'll give yourself the reset you've been needing.

And here's the beautiful part...

When you return home, everything changes.

You show up differently.

You have more energy.
More clarity.
More motivation.
More patience.
More creativity.

You make better decisions.
You stop operating from survival mode.
You remember why you started.

Because the most powerful thing you can do for your business isn't always another strategy.

Sometimes it's healing the woman behind the business.

💛 Satori Rising Retreat – October

If your soul is craving a pause, perhaps this is the sign you've been waiting for.

If your following along for Spinal Flow, make sure you jump over to Break Away Beauty to keep updated 🙏

I recently worked with a young boy on the spectrum who had been struggling with severe constipation and poor sleep for quite some time.

After just one session, his parent messaged me to say he went to the bathroom multiple times…
and slept through the entire night.

Let that sink in for a second.

Because here’s what most people don’t realise…

We’ve been taught to manage symptoms—
not understand the root cause.

When the nervous system is stuck in stress (fight or flight), the body doesn’t prioritise things like digestion, rest, or repair.

That’s when we start to see the flow-on effects: • Constipation or IBS
• Broken sleep
• Headaches
• Tension in the body
• Emotional dysregulation

And over time… people start to believe: “This is just how life is now.”

But it’s not.

When the body feels safe—
when the nervous system begins to regulate—
things start to shift.

Through modalities like Spinal Flow and Reiki, we’re not forcing the body to change…
we’re allowing it to do what it was always designed to do.

Regulate. Restore. Heal.

Sometimes the shifts are subtle…
and sometimes they’re life-changing.

If you’ve been relying on quick fixes, or feeling like you’ve “tried everything”…

Maybe it’s time to look at this differently.

Your body isn’t broken.
It’s just been stuck in survival mode.

✨ And it doesn’t have to stay there.

DM me “RESET” or book your session to experience it for yourself.
