And she stopped...and she heard,
What the trees said to her.
And she sat there for hours,
Not wanting to leave.
For the forest said nothing,
It just let her breathe."

To share the space widely, we're especially welcoming applications for cultural gatherings, men's retreats, youth groups and professional development offerings.

This Easter, gift yourself the space to recharge 🌸

Take a sacred rest this 3-6 April and come home to yourself. A time to pause, explore and replenish with the Mana team.

Move gently with yoga, find stillness in meditation, flow through qi gong, express freely in open floor dance and journey inward with the rhythm of the drum.

Join us for our Easter Coming Home To Yourself Retreat at manaretreat.com 🌿

We recently welcomed local herbalist, Clio Meyer, to Mana for her Into the Green Retreat 🍃

Together, participants journeyed into the wisdom of plants and the ways they support healing for ourselves and our communities. Over the days, guests explored crafting herbal medicines, herbal dietas, medicinal plant walks, drum journeys and healing ceremonies.

It’s always a joy to have Clio’s playful wisdom and deep plant knowledge shared here at Mana

In March, we had the joy of welcoming Sacred Earth to Mana for their very first retreat here. Together, Penny, Jethro and their beautiful group of guests co-created a truly special energy that was deeply felt throughout the land.

It was a heartfelt beginning and we're so grateful for the connection that unfolded during their time with us.

We're thrilled to be welcoming Sacred Earth back again next year and look forward to the magic that will continue to grow with this community 🎶

A beautiful message from Ashley, one of our volunteers from the Mana Work Exchange Programme.

"Mana is absolutely its location. The hidden nooks and crannies, spaces like the Octagon that light up as the sun rises, and, of course, the unforgettable Sanctuary. But even more than its location, Mana is its people. As a volunteer, it's immediately clear that Mana fosters a strong sense of community. Part of the beauty of this place is that everyone is there by choice. Each one of us made our own decisions, big and small, that have led us to being together here and now. For that reason, we all treat each other and Mana with respect and care. The tranquility of the land and the support of its community are the perfect space for inner reflection and growth. I've grown so much from my time at Mana, both as an artist and as a person. I'll always carry Mana with me as I continue on my journey."

It has been a joy to have Ashley, along with all of our volunteers, as part of the Mana community. The care and love they pour into the land can be felt all around us, and we are deeply grateful for the presence, energy and heart they bring to Mana. 🌿
