Sarah and long time friend yoga teacher and body worker Bernadette Gavin have created and co facilitate inspiring nurturing weekend retreats for women at Solscape Eco Retreat in Raglan.

 

The retreats are designed to be a balance of women coming to be nourished nurtured and rejuvenated and also supported to be gently challenged in areas they wish to extend themselves.

 

The weekend includes a range of transformative activities such as yoga creative arts, time in nature surfing or beach time, deep ecology and mindfulness practices. Each participant is supported to participate at their own level.

 

Bernadette and Sarah have found that creating and running the retreats has been a wonderful experience.

 

“It has given us a chance to draw together a wealth of experience in healing and personal growth. We thought to ourselves what we would love to experience in a weekend to help us recharge and step off again re energised back into our lives and this has been a big influence on what we have created.We have created the framework and these are the guides for the weekend. But it is the coming together of the individual women who then together create the magic of the experience. Women coming together to support each other with transformational growth & healing is a beautiful and powerful experience.”

 

Sarah says.. “I am passionate about supporting people to live healthier happier lives and this is another avenue where I can use my skills to support people to achieve this.”

 

Sarah draws on her experience as a group & adventure therapist in her facilitation of the retreats. Creating a safe place for people to share and grow is one of Sarah’s strengths.
