Deep Dive and Thrive!

Have you felt crazy busy recently? Or overwhelmed and exhausted? Like you are languishing in survival mode, with no energy to rise and shine? Like there is no time to focus on you or what matters in your life? Like you are just running in circles, going nowhere?

When was the last time you felt radiantly happy, healthy and fulfilled?

Sometimes, all we need to do is to press pause and come back into a more loving and honest relationship with ourselves. Deep dive and thrive is a safe, supportive and inspiring space for you to do just that.

Join Maya Nova and Wendy Douglas for this weekend of holistic, deep self-awareness and self-care, designed to restore your wellbeing - the experience of abundant vitality, contentment and joy and a clear sense of purpose.
