There’s a version of you
You have been waiting to meet
A long forgotten part from the past
Or maybe a part you’ve not discovered yet
This version of you
Knows exactly what you need
And why you are here
It has all the answers
And asks the best questions
This part of you is waiting for you
At the Authentic Life retreat….
In magical Sintra Portugal where dreams come true
Join us and rediscover your authentic you - and learn how to live with more freedom, flow and joy.
Let go of the past and embrace all that you know is possible. https://theauthentic.life/retreats/portugal-retreat/

There's so much to love about Tuscany! Stunning landscapes, divine food, family style hospitality, rich culture and fascinating history. What better way is there to partake in all these gems than journeying on foot as a pilgrimage?
Sacred slow travel invites a whole new connection to self and landscapes - both inner and outer. That's what we love ❤️

Join us in 2026 for a new beginning ✨️

We are on a short break in Sydney, but still love to get out walking every day. We came across a gorgeous bush track along the bay near Willoughby today. So much abundance of nature... from lush ferns and fragrant bush flowers to giant red gum trees, tiny fungi and water monitors (lizards). But the show stealers were of course the birds! When we come home to Australia after trips in Europe we're always welcomed home by our abundant and noisy birds!

Australia is home to about 10% of the world's bird species with almost 50% of these only found in Australia. Our song birds are both rich in colour and unique melodies that are the heart beat of our forests, coastlines and even cities.
The classic kookaburras, cockatoos and lorikeets can be heard here in this little reel!!
We wish you happy days walking outside this season. May you many small joys of discovering nature's abundance in your local area 🍃 🚶‍♂️ 🌳

So love this quote by Frederick Turner ❤️

It takes a moment to sit with and fully grasp the deeper layers of meaning.
Nature is one perennial beauty that generously gives, with little effort and nothing to prove or lose. Pure acceptance, and the simplicity of being with what is.

How do we also find our way to living with nothing to lose and everything to give way?

By understanding and accepting our unique nature and inner beauty, discovering our authentic voice and freely sharing our truth and wisdom with courage and vulnerability, whatever edge we find ourselves on.

When we're ready for transformation doors open. When we're ready for growth and change doors open.
It sometimes takes courage to walk through those doors but your future self will always thank you for it.
