Relationships are the most challenging and the most rewarding aspects of life. The more intimate the relationship the larger opportunity for growth we are given. Relationships are mirrors for us to learn more about ourselves.

Unlock your potential ~ moving past Fear

There are many reasons why people find excuses for not really doing what they want to, perhaps lack of money, ability, family, time, motivation. These reasons have a root ~ fear. It may be the fear of upsetting someone, fear of appearing foolish, fear of the unknown, fear of failure, fear of being judged. It may be some or all of these. Our body is like the earth to our spirit, the foundation, the home. to connect with the body is to connect with the earth. This weekend will explore themes around transforming fear looking at, survival, fear, grounding, body image and nourishing our right to be here. The group is a catalyst for the weekends exploration.

Celebrate Your Sexuality

What is Love? What is Intimacy? What is Sexuality?

Remove blocks to intimacy in order to expand your ability to love and create the relationships you want. Embrace your sexuality as a special, and sacred, part of your life.

For many people sexuality is a taboo subject. The workshop is a place to learn and share your concerns about intimate relationships

This weekend will be exploring themes around emotions, sexuality, sexual energy, desire, and pleasure, and our right to feel. We do not appreciate that our thoughts about these topics may prevent us from fully expressing and receiving love. The workshop provides an opportunity to examine these.

Manifest your potential ~ Reclaim your power
This weekend will explore themes around empowerment, Will, determination, assertion, personal power, laughter and joy, and our right to act and manifest our sense of will.

'Let this moment be there, and you in it, and suddenly you have everything - because life is there. Suddenly everything starts showering on you, and then this moment becomes eternal and then there is no time. It is always the now. It never ends, never begins. Then you are in it, not an outsider. You have entered the whole; you have recognized who you are.' (Osho)

29th May - 5th June Retreat in Italy

Living From The Heart ~ Opening Your Heart
This will be a gentle week long retreat. The process of being in a relationship can be a sacred journey, a powerful path of awakening, accelerating our growth. Walking this path can deepen the soul’s capacity for compassion, and the hearts capacity for embracing love. It can be a catalyst for discovering our true essence, moving us toward wholeness and transformation. When we "fall in love" our deepest need to be seen and understood is awoken. We can learn to understand love's cycles of giving and receiving. The closer we come to another, the better we come to know ourselves. On the retreat you will experience love, trust and relationship in a way you've never before thought possible: It will explore themes of Love, wisdom, stability, perseverance, patience, finding equilibrium, and Compassion. We will be exploring our right to love and be loved. By witnessing our own attitudes, we are better able to change. Please see retreat page for more details about the week.

26th - 27th July

Communicate from the Heart

Living our truth as whole beings requires us to live life as a creative act. This weekend will explore how we communicate in relationships and how we express our emotions, exploring our right to speak and hear truth. As we begin to understand our purpose with clarity, we journey towards self-knowledge and increased loving awareness of everything around us  "Crisis resolves in one of three ways." The ordeal may end when "we slowly put ourselves back together again and life goes on in the same overtly or vaguely unsatisfactory way that it did before," or "we become so terrified, agitated or depressed that we wither away or stay in the desert of illness; or we come out transformed, emerging with a new strength, wisdom and vision." (Joan Borysenko)

Connect to Your deepest Desires ~ Dreams, Symbols and Archetypes

This weekend we will explore the world of symbols and archetypes, our imagination, visualization, concentration, Self-mastery and exploring our right to see clearly. Archetypes by their very nature are alive, in folklore, mythology & dreams. They emerge without conscious effort. Connected deeply to instincts, they trigger us emotionally. They help us identify our stage of growth and our place in the world; they are transformative, and regenerative.

'One thing that comes out in myths is that at the bottom of the abyss comes the voice of salvation. The black moment is the moment when the real message of transformation is going to come. At the darkest moment comes the light.' (Joseph Campbell)

29th - 30th November

The Art of Intimacy ~ Awakening to consciousness

We are usually encouraged to experience the world through our physical five senses, so keeping us focused on our outer vision, and disconnected from the intuitive and frequencies in the realm of the unseen. Being in an open and loving state with ourselves creates the way for spiritual energies to move through us with ease and grace. When we do not live from the heart, our spiritual forces are scattered. This weekend will encourage you

discover the rewards for choosing to be awake. To be awake, is to consciously open up to develop self and environmental awareness through the senses, intuition and a connection to a greater whole. You will develop the essence of an internal awareness or witness, moving towards creating a deeper sense of empathy and exploring our right to know and knowledge
