Why We Don’t Say No…

by Rhianna on March 31, 2014

I think I have mentioned before, that during the Embracing Health Detoxification Retreats, we often see themes develop in the groups we get. We have seen the ‘Constipation Group’, the ‘Thyroid Group’, the ‘Headache Group’ and the ‘Low Self Worth Group’. These themes occur purely by the design of the universe and the magic of

When It Happens, It Happens!

by Rhianna on March 27, 2014

While away in Byron Bay last week for the Embracing Health Detox Retreat, we enjoyed quite a few rough storms during the nights. One morning after a particularly strong storm, I was walking towards the shala when I saw a newly abandon cicada cast (the shell bit, actually called an exuvia upon further research!) on

How Kind Are You To YOU?

by Rhianna on March 7, 2014

Just a quick blog today on self love. How often do you show yourself that you love you? It is sad to think that the majority of women out there have a head full of negative self talk, rather than positive love and affirmation for their individual, divine beauty. I know it can be hard,

Leisa’s Diary #5; Reviewing Beliefs

by Leisa on March 6, 2014

I had a wonderful opportunity to review a belief I was holding onto quite tightly just last week, and it has been a refreshing insight into how easily we can become caught up in beliefs that don’t serve us, or those around us. I’ve written before about the processes I go through to explore negative feelings

Leisa’s Diary #4; Healing Takes Time

by Leisa on February 5, 2014

One of the main reasons I’m slowing down and taking some time out this year, is not just to finish my book, but it is to create the space to allow time for me to heal and to take my health to another level. It is quite amazing how much time it really does take

Leisa’s Diary #3; Life Values

by Leisa on January 29, 2014

Following on from my last diary entry about busyness, another concept that I’ve been playing with, is about values and how our life is a reflection of that which we value the most. One of the things that I am factoring into my ‘slower’ days, is the listening to podcasts from my favourite speakers – and

Getting Back To Nature

by Rhianna on January 29, 2014

Biophilia– noun, (according to a theory of the biologist E.O. Wilson) there exists an innate and genetically determined affinity of human beings with the natural world. Most of us know that it does us good to ‘get out in nature’ as often as possible. And for many people that might include walking the dog in

Leisa’s Diary #2; Business, Busyness

by Leisa on January 21, 2014

Busyness. It can be such a loaded word, and it’s one that I am currently pondering. How did this word and what it stands for, came to be such a big part of my life? I look back and realise that I wasn’t always ‘busy’. Once upon a time I had balance in my life.

I’m not sure if you heard but our last Byron Bay retreat was one of the best retreats we have ever run! So many incredible transformations and such an amazing group of people. We have no doubt that the next Byron Bay Retreat is going to be just as inspiring.  Byron Bay is absolutely beautiful at

Cells Respond To Different Kinds Of Happiness

by Leisa on October 8, 2013

I was reading one of my favourite magazines on the weekend, Nexus Magazine, and came across this article on happiness. I love anything to do with the emotional aspects of healing and the mind-body connection in medicine – we know from the work of many amazing people such as Dr Candace Pert, Dr Bruce Lipton, and
