𝐖𝐞𝐥𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞!
We invite you to join us for an immersive healing retreat in Canberra, created exclusively for women, where we'll awaken your pleasure as the life force energy that animates your entire being. Through Shakti Yoga, Voice Activation, Sound Healing and intuitive Art Therapy, you'll journey from raw instinctual wisdom - all the way into your true spiritual essence, where the most refined aspects of self, spirit, and the divine come alive.
💫 This is a guided journey welcoming a full-body awakening to the pleasure that is your birthright... the vital force that makes you feel truly alive in your body.
We'll create a sacred container where your body's wisdom leads the way. Where movement becomes medicine. Where your voice carries power. Where creativity flows without judgment. Where you experience the delight of your sensual body. Where pleasure isn't something you seek but something you embody.

The event isn't about sexual energy... it's the life force itself.
To be clear: this is NOT about cultivating sexual energy or creating orgasms. There is no touching of other bodies or genital exploration. We are not tantric practitioners or sexologists.
This is a fully clothed experience. During this retreat, we explore pleasure through our senses... imagine inhaling a rose's perfume, feeling sunlight on your skin, bringing gentle touch to, and moving energy around your own body. There will be self-touch as invitation only... perhaps tracing your fingertips along your forearm, cradling your own face, or exploring the landscape of your hands.

✨ Your pleasure isn't just about sensuality or joy... it's the fundamental life force energy that keeps you connected to your intuition, creativity, and authentic power.
When you're disconnected from pleasure, you're not just missing out on feeling good. You're cut off from the very energy that helps you make aligned decisions, create from your truth, and move through the world with magnetic presence.
This isn't about becoming more indulgent or self-focused. It's about recognising that your pleasure... your aliveness... your embodied presence is medicine for a world that's forgotten how to feel.

𝐑𝐞𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐢𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐚𝐥𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬
It’s time to remember that you are pleasure itself... that every cell of your body was designed to feel, sense, and respond to life with exquisite sensitivity.
❤️ This day is about coming home to the truth that your pleasure isn't selfish... it's sacred. It's the channel through which life force moves through you and into the world.
𝐕𝐞𝐧𝐮𝐞: The beautiful venue features floor-to-ceiling windows that bathe the space in natural light, inviting nature in, with views to the lake.
𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐁𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠: Please wear comfortable clothes you can move in freely. Bring a water bottle, journal, yoga mat, cushions and blankets/shawls for your comfort. Eye mask/pillow and personal art supplies that you love to use (basics supplied).
Contraindications: While Sound Healing is generally gentle and non-invasive, there are certain circumstances where caution is required.
The following can be contraindications for Sound Healing that we need to be aware of - Epilepsy, Medical Implants, Acute Inflammations/Tumours, Recent Surgery, or Pregnancy.

𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐅𝐚𝐜𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐬:
🔻 𝐊𝐚𝐭𝐞 will guide you through Shakti Yoga practices that awaken the raw, instinctual wisdom of your womb and body. Through flowing movements that follow your body's natural rhythms rather than prescribed forms, you'll discover how pleasure moves through you when you stop trying to control it. Voice activation practices will free the sounds your body longs to make... the expressions that have been silenced for too long.

🎶 𝐀𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐚 brings a layer of refinement and deep integration through sound healing that washes your cells in frequencies of remembrance, supporting the clearing of stagnant energy so your life force can circulate freely and expand, restoring presence to your internal systems and reconnecting you with your innate sensuous nature. This isn’t about pleasure for pleasure’s sake - it’s a sacred activation that harmonises the heart and opens the pathways for full-body pleasure to move as an expression of love and feminine radiance. Her intuitive art therapy then creates a spacious, non-verbal channel for this renewed aliveness to flow through colour and instinctive creation.

𝐓𝐨𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫, we weave these practices to take you on a complete journey... from the raw, primal awakening of your life force through movement and voice,into the refined expression of your spiritual essence through art and sound. 💫
You'll have complete permission to move at your own pace, to rest when needed, to express or remain silent as feels true. This journey is about connecting to your sensual nature, gently, and lovingly awakening what's already alive within you. Not to perform femininity, not to force an experience - but to honour your authentic and real expression.
No prior experience with yoga, art, or voice work is needed... just a willingness to explore what aliveness feels like in your body.

However your path unfolds, may you remember that your pleasure is sacred, your aliveness is needed, and your embodied presence is a gift to the world.
With love and anticipation,
❤️ Kate & Alisha
