This April (17–19 April), join Stephen Archer for a Weekend Mindfulness Retreat at Te Moata.

This silent retreat offers a rare opportunity to step away from noise, deadlines and everyday pressures and settle into the quiet that’s already within you.

Through a series of guided sessions, you’ll explore practical mindfulness approaches including focused attention, self-compassion, and awareness, and how these can support greater clarity, emotional balance, and wellbeing in everyday life.

Set in the peaceful surroundings of Te Moata in the Coromandel, the retreat provides a simple, structured, and supportive environment suitable for both beginners and those with an existing practice.

Women's Silent Retreat - Relax and Unwind In Gentle Silence
April 9-12th

This retreat is lightly held, with permission to follow your heart. Attend all the wonderful offerings, or take time out reading, walking or resting, while sharing the silence in a group of women. Woven into the weekend is meditation, sacred chanting, movement, poetry, walking the labyrinth, time in nature connecting with the trees, water and land of Te Moata, and more. The delicious Te Moata meals taste even better in silence, with time to appreciate every mouthful. There is time at the first evening meal and the final lunch to socialise. This is a special opportunity for you to rest deeply, to remember who you are and to emerge refreshed and nurtured. Facilitated by Beccy, Kibriya and Suni and supported by Marnie’s presence who has led this reatreat for 25 years.
