Being Yoga

Bali Yoga Retreats are the absolute best week of our year!!!
Back in 2008 we ran our first yoga and meditation retreat in Bali.

This was a dream come true! We couldn't really believe that what started out as a passion had become an international lifestyle. Wow!

We had no idea that nearly two decades later we’d still be hosting these weeks together.

What keeps us doing it is what we see happen every single retreat.

People arrive tired, busy and often a little disconnected from themselves.

But after a few days something shifts.

The nervous system settles.

Laughter returns.

People rediscover a deeper sense of calm and clarity.

We've actually had many students make really significant life shifts when they return home, after giving themselves this precious time away to reset and reconnect.

This September we’ll be returning to Bali again for a beautiful week of yoga, meditation and rest.

6–12 September.

If you're feeling the call for a reset, I'd love to share the experience with you.

It was just a little over 3 months ago when I realised my entire nervous system had been absolutely fried after the past 6 years - Covid, caring for my dad before he passed, then caring for my mum for 4 years before she passed.

I realised I just needed to get away and do a little 'self retreat' in Bali to replenish the tanks. I went with one intention - to move, breathe, meditate and reflect on what's most important in my life.

Now, looking back, this was the single best decision of my recent life. This time away has fundamentally changed me at a very deep level. I'm more alive, smiling all the time, filled with energy and with this strange almost child like enthusiasm to get out there and explore life...

Sometimes you just need to heed the call and follow your heart, even if everyone else tells you otherwise. Holidays are nice but focused time off with practices like yoga, meditation, journalling and reflection are really potent change makers.

I think this is one of the reasons we keep going back to Bali every year to teach our annual Yoga and Meditation Retreat. Since 2008 we have been sending groups back to Australia after their week in the Rice Fields, with bright glowing faces and huge open hearts.

Sometimes what we really need in life isn't another productivity strategy or therapy or self help.

We need space.

Space to breathe.
Space to move our bodies.
Space to reconnect with ourselves.

This September myself and Vanessa will be hosting a 7-day Yoga & Meditation Retreat in beautiful Bali.

A small group experience focused on:

• Yoga and mindful movement
• Meditation and nervous system reset
• Beautiful food and nature
• Time to rest, reflect and reconnect

If Bali has been quietly calling your name, this might be your moment.

6–12 September

Starting 1 February for 3 Months - All Online with a wonderful community of diverse people all looking to discover the inner code for living a happier, more fulfilled and contented life.

Is Happiness genuinely possible in such times of seeming conflict, uncertainty and change?

The answer is a resounding yet but we need to reframe the idea of what Happiness actually is. It's not merely pleasure. It's not the absence of pain or discomfort. It's not the opposite of unhappiness.

No.

True happiness is something else entirely. It's both a deep natural state of the human heart and it's also a learned and trainable set of inner skills. Why else is the Dalai Lama, someone who has had so much taken from him and his people, always smiling?

In this three month module - taught one Sunday morning each month, we connect to learn about specific forms of meditation that aren't as much about quieting the mind as they are about opening and awakening the heart.

Happiness, gratitude, loving kindness, compassion, deep joy alongside wisdom, acceptance and forgiveness are the qualities that truly light up the inner being.

No Upfront Cost - join me and a lovely community of new friends.

Let's bring a richer smile to 2026...

Having explored Hypnosis (realising we are in a trance more than awake), creating my reality, learning of the Sanskrit version of 'Maha Maya' and pondering the present 'living in a simulation' thought experiment - this simple line in a nursery rhyme has always intrigued me.

IF "Life is but a dream"

Then every thought, belief, and story you hold becomes the structure of the world you walk through. Telling yourself “this is just how it is,” reinforces the illusion! Instead, in those moments, pause, wake up and realise nothing is set in stone!

You realize you’re inside the dream, not bound by it—and in that moment, the dream begins to bend. Colors sharpen, possibilities open, and life becomes lucid. You can paint it brighter, softer, more aligned with your heart.

So, what dream are you ready to wake into?
