One potent day of nature medicine to drop out of your head...and into your heart

What if you stopped trying to frenzily figure it all out
and simply got still enough to hear what you already knows?

HEART MEETS LAND
is a day to step out of the noise, the shoulds, the to-do's and those endless thought-loops (umm..goodbye burnout!) and come back to the most delicious and expansive part of you...

...your heart.

Oh my...I love my heart.
And I want you to befriend this glowing, guiding organ of yours too!

Heart Meets Land Retreat

You’ve done a bunch of healing work…
but still not feeling “ALIVE”.

You’re functioning. You’re doing the work.You’re taking the supplements. Listening to the podcasts. Reading the books. Trying to regulate your nervous system.

And yet…something feels a little flat. That spark for life, that joy, that desire and heart-knowing that you hear some “crazy” people talk about…you don’t quite feel that. You miss - or maybe have never known - that feeling of aliveness.

This is your invite to tap into the living, breathing, beating, wonder of your heart. Because it’s there. Waiting. Ready to bring you back to life!

Filly's Story...

I was there too! My old default pattern was living from my mind (over-thinking, over-doing, over-analysing, over-controlling), which led to body burnout and a whole host of “mystery” health issues. Part of my healing involved putting aside the mind, and really learning to listen to and working with my body. Which led to a remission of symptoms - yay!

But…I was still feeling a bit “flat”. Still not fully “living”. Still playing it safe, with my health, my business, my life. For the last 18 months, I’ve really been surrendering into my heart - and following my heart’s nudges. Which has led to so much more expansion, joy, freedom, play, wonder and awe, including a spontaneous 4-week camping road-trip through Australia with my fam, performing in a 10-show musical production, hosting my first healing retreat, and soon heading to Uluru for a 7-day sacred pilgrimage. All because I listened to and trusted my heart! And each one of these experiences left me so lit up, crying with joy, and high on my own power and awesomeness.

Reflecting back, I also realised that the spontaneous healing of chronic health issues came when I tapped into the power and high-vibe emotional frequencies of my heart. I also realised my heart had been speaking to me all along, right from a little kid, and always, always in nature.

And I want all this + more for you too!

Let the land hold you

Oh my heart. The moment you step into Gleneagle, this special slice of earth, your shoulders will drop, your breathing will slow, your body will take a sigh of release.

You’ll find enchantment in every step. Colourful secret doors. Flourishing man ferns. Waterways. Birds galore.

And here, my love, this land will crack your heart open. To notice more. Feel more. Sense more. Know my. From and through the heart.

So I want to invite you here.

Into stillness. Into movement. Into beauty. Into connection.

And give you a whole day where you don't have to do anything.

You can just be.

Your heart is a guide

Not in a fluffy, throw-your-rational-mind-out-the-window kind of way.

Your heart is a physical, beating organ.

And it's also where you experience some of your deepest:

Knowing.
Desire.
Love.
Connection.
Awe.
Joy.

Your mind can make sense of things.

Your body can tell you what is safe and sustainable.

And your heart can tell you what you need to come alive.

We’ll invite all three into the space - but this day, the heart is the heroine.

Your H.E.A.R.T. Opening

These are the five steps I use to crack open the heart…for the most delicious connection and access to your deepest desires

HOLD

Stop. Breath. Arrive.

The heart is subtle. It is the stillpoint within you. We have to become quiet enough, still enough, to hear. Let the land hold you. Feet on the earth. Ceremonial tea. Slow somatic unwinding.

EMPTY OUT

Release what is getting in the way.

The heart is sensitive, and easily “blocked”. In this phase, we take off the armour and empty out all the stories, conditioning, expectations, protective-patterns, that are keeping the heart locked.

AWAKEN

Come wildly alive.

Ahhh - my favourite! Awaken this beautiful, beating, glowing vessel. Let yourself feel. We’ll open up, move, sing, dance, play, laugh, dream, desire on the soil. The heart is subtle, yes, but once it awakens it is joy and beauty in a way that feels like sunshine radiating from you.

RECEIVE

Open up to what is already here.

In this phase, we’ll feel into what it actually means for you, to know when an intuitive download is coming from the heart, versus coming from fear or conditioning. We'll step into the rainforest. Away from distraction. And...listen. Receive.

TRUST

Trust the nudges from your heart.

Knowing is one thing. Trusting yourself enough to move is another. We'll finish the day by getting clear on your next steps to create your heart’s wantings, and to internally anchor in deep self-trust.

You'll leave with...

You’ll leave feeling more space, more clarity, more connection, more joy, more trust in yourself. 

And that delicious feeling of - “Ohhhh. There I am. Thank you heart.”

You’re not coming here to “work on yourself”. You’re coming here to come alive!

Heart Meets Land Retreat

Make it a whole weekend

Gift yourself a whole weekend to really pause, listen in and integrate.

Two immersive options:

  1. Sleep in one of the beautiful luxury Gleneagle domes, and have an outdoor bath beneath the stars
  2. Immerse yourself even closer to nature, by camping or caravaning at Gleneagle

Stay longer, walk through the rainforests, sit by the fire, look at the stars, wake slowly, have nowhere to be.

Let the land keep holding you.

To gift yourself this time, in this amazing place with these amazing people, is really a huge step forwards in your own healing journey.

And somewhere between the incredible land you'll stay on, the incredible food you'll be served up and the incredible care of Chris and Filly, you might just find a version of yourself that you had forgotten existed.
