About this Event
This very special one-day retreat is for you, if you:
Long to spend time in lovely gardens
Imagine how uplifted you will feel when surrounded by colourful blooms, lush greenery and native bush, with the springy grass beneath your feet, the fresh air on your face, and the rejuvenating aroma of the plants and leaves? Absolutely, and you can experience all of this because the retreat is set amongst the serene beauty of the 64 hectares (156 acres) of the Auckland Botanic Gardens.
Wish you could let go of stress and gain more energy.
Yes, would that be amazing and it’s all possible through the restorative power of tai chi and qigong. I’ll lead you through a unique set of movements that will help you to release stress and cultivate more energy. It is as easy and natural as the trees letting go of their leaves in autumn so they can conserve energy and prepare for spring.
Can’t wait to truly connect with nature and to awaken all of your senses.
This retreat will definitely be for you because you’ll:
- sample the delights of the edible garden,
- feel nature’s patterns with leaf rubbing,
- tap into all that nature can offer with sensory journaling, and
- learn how to create earth art/mandalas
You’ll get to take home all of the above ‘feel good’ vibes, along with:
- The feeling of having a tranquil, garden sanctuary within you.
- The know-how on how to reduce stress and calm your mind at any time, and to keep that ‘inner sanctuary’ of yours connected with mother nature/Papatūānuku.
- A nature journal.
- A set of journaling pens.
- A foraging bag so that you can continue to collect nature’s taonga/treasures when at home.
This 1-day retreat is for anyone aged 18+, who is seeking to reduce stress, rejuvenate their body, reset their mind and renew their spirt. Ideal for beginners.
