Announcing Our New Women’s Retreat
Voices of the Divine Feminine – New Zealand Women’s Retreat
March 22-26
Sing. Pray. Love.
Travel to the enchanting ‘Land of the Long White Cloud‘, New Zealand, for our special Women’s Retreat where we will delve deeply into the mystery of our Divine Feminine Nature. In the exquisite sanctuary of the Mana Retreat Center we will nourish, heal and rejuvenate our bodies, minds and souls. Together, we will embody the beauty and grace of our natural feminine power.
Find Your Voice
Through ancient matriarchal teachings that explain how you can use the cyclical flow of your feminine fluidity, you will untangle blockages and learn to access the reservoir of your hidden resources. Through chanting, meditation and feminine spiritual practices, we will invoke our true voices so we can listen, clarify and strengthen our path with heart.
Join Amara Charles, Shyena Venice and special guest Sharman Okan for a delightful journey you will never forget. Enjoy the spirit of this gorgeous land as well as premier accommodations, spa treatments, fine food and remarkably friendly people. If you have always wanted to visit New Zealand, or long to bathe in the tranquility of your feminine beauty, this is the way to do it.
This Voices of the Divine Feminine Retreat has come about through many years of dreaming together with Sharman Okan, and a number of elegant adventures with Shyena to New Zealand. We did our first and only retreat together many years ago in Wirunii, Australia. It was called Mystic Rapture, which is precisely what it was. It was a fully spontaneous event where we co created from our different traditions from the deep affinity of our spirits. It was a full immersion into feminine ceremonies of initiation from the Shamanic, Taoist, Tantric and Buddhist lineages we carry. Voices of the Divine Feminine will thus be a reunion continuing what we began seven years ago. It’s going to be a sublime experience of ceremonial chant, meditation, deep reflection and joy opening the space to discover the true vibrations of your natural voice.
