Crystal Sound Meditation with Amanda Jane
Whether you're new to meditation or have a well established practice, this self guided meditation experience will be unique.
Sound therapy has now been proven scientifically to assist with healing from stress, pain, depression & many other imbalances we can experience. Using sound therapy to deepen your meditation practice can be immensely calming & enjoyable. Use the power of sound to enhance your meditation practice or simply come along to rest & bathe your energy field in the healing qualities of sound.
After welcoming & opening the space, Amanda will refrain from speaking & play a combination of crystal sound bowls attuned to the 7 chakras along with tuning forks for a duration of the session.

Day Retreat Nourish - Mind - Body - Soul
with
Ashlee Randovan
These women wellness day retreats are designed to nourish you on all levels - mind, body, soul. They are a chance to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of life and come home
to you.
Each retreat will include a beautiful blend of women's circle, yoga, meditation & breath-work, sound journey and more. A workshop will be based around a certain topic which will vary each retreat, but always centered on women's holistic wellness. There will be time to reflect, journal, share, and connect back with yourself and that inner voice, and to connect with other like minded women. Delicious nourishing whole foods & herbal teas will be provided throughout the day.
From the moment you arrive in the lush Bali gardens - surrounded in nature, you can slow down, breathe and just BE. All you need to do is arrive and be present, and let me wrap you up and take care of you and all the rest. Leave feeling a renewed sense of calm, balance and empowerment. I can’t wait to share this magic with you.

This workshop is intended as a reset. There will be 4 sessions of 90 minutes each week which will include: an introduction using personal development tools (intention setting and phrasing, gratitude and joy practices); yoga posture for stress relief to prepare the body to receive the benefits of yoga nidra practice; 50/60 minutes of yoga nidra. This will be a closed group so there will be no newcomers after the first session. Each session will have a different introduction practice and yoga nidra journey.
Yoga Nidra is a powerful technique in which you learn to consciously relax, it is a state of dynamic sleep. Similarly to meditation, both hemisphere of your brain communicate during yoga nidra.
In practice, you will be lying down on your back in shavasana, the corpse pose, and Pauline will guide you through a systematic relaxation, moving your awareness inward. Your body will be completely relaxed while you remain deeply aware.
The Yoga Nidra state will induce complete physical, mental and emotional relaxation. Other benefits include improved sleep, memory and creativity and the possibility to transform one’s nature by the use of the Sankalpa – an intention. It is like compost for a seed of intention to be planted in the mind for personal growth and spiritual development. Yoga Nidra is an aspect of Pratyahara - the withdrawal of the senses and the 5th limb of Raja Yoga.
