Rewild Retreats

Excited to be guest facilitating at this new moon workshop with our friend and co-creater Courtney Quintrell of BRAVE SOUL. If you want to come along for the adventure, get in touch and book your ticket 🥰

Event link for more info & bookings: New Moon in Cancer Water Contrast Therapy & Intention Setting Workshop

There are only 2 EARLY BIRD PRICING TICKETS AVAILABLE NOW UNTIL THE 30th June 2024!

Join us on an incredible life changing adventure to remember who you are and reconnect to the parts of you that have been lost. A chance to celebrate you in one of the most magical places in Aotearoa / New Zealand, the gorgeous Pelorus Sound.

This will be an expedition that helps you cultivate self awareness, explore areas of self development, connect with like minded individuals, reinvigorate your zest for life, experience challenging & fun outdoor adventures, express yourself creatively, and drop into mindful practices that can reset the mind, body & spirit. Think of it like Outward Bound meets a more creative & feminine twist.

The ethos behind Rewild Retreats is one of connection, empowerment and embodiment. The intention that drives Rewild is to help you get started on this journey, continue this path or to help you find your way back to your own self discovery. Bringing together different modalities, practices, adventures, creative expression, community, and connection to wild nature, we are able to bring about powerful transformation and really flip the script on how we perceive ourselves and what we are truly capable of.

Rediscover and reclaim parts of you that you had forgotten about or never knew you had. Explore your relationship with the wild around you and the wild within. See yourself through another person's eyes and witness the vitality & fierceness that you hold. Share your stories and hear others as we hold space for each other & connect on a deeper level. Explore your emotional landscape and start to unpack the layers of you. Dive deep as we explore techniques and tools to feel more confident, more self aware, & understanding of our self worth. Rediscovering our passions, our intentions and reconnecting to our bodies. Reigniting or stoking the flames that keep us living a more meaningful life aligned with the values that mean most to us.

Join us for a one of a kind adventure amidst one of our rustic & remote locations here in the heart of the South Island... Lake Ohau Quarters will be our home of growth & transformation for this weekend!

We were all born as wild souls, and through the course of time, amidst societal & cultural pressures, we have lost touch with that divine source within us. Call it your feminine, your inner goddess, your passion, your purpose, your essence.... that feeling inside that drives your creative life force and makes you, uniquely you.

See yourself through another person's eyes and witness the beauty & fierceness that you hold. Share your stories and hear others as we hold space for each other. Learn from incredible coaches, guest speakers, healers, and educators.

Located at the edge of Lake Ohau, The Quarters is our home in the back country for 3 days as we dive deep into what it is to Rewild, to find what has been lost and begin that journey of transformation, self discovery & reconnection. Connect with nature, disconnect from wifi/cell phone reception, enjoy the rustic beauty of the high country, bathe in the ancient forests of Temple Valley and revive your connection to the wild. Warm cosy fires to keep us toasty, beautiful nourishing meals provided by our in house chef & master foragers Abby & Mat of Bush to Buffet, and experience amazing connections & powerful transformations to be made throughout the weekend.

We customise this experience to suit each group that attends making each retreat we run incredibly unique!

For those with horses, you can bring your bestie to this retreat and get photos with your horse if you're keen! PM us for details.

The investment in yourself for this 3 day/ 2 night weekend of transformation is all inclusive. Your food/drink is provided by our in house professional chef, accomodation on site, 30 min photo session on location including minimum 20+ fully edited photos, and access to all of the experiences & workshops.

Optional add-ons to think about once you decide to book in & we can discuss at the time:

$180 - Makeup & Hair Styling for your Rewild Portrait Session
$85 - Reiki Session / 1 hour
$85 - Massage Session / 1 hour
$75 - 1:1 trauma informed counseling session

If you need help getting to the venue, get in touch and we can see how we can help. The venue is easily accessible by car, and we do often have carpool options available.

If this is all resonating with you and you'd like to book in, let us know by messaging here on the page or email the facilitator/host Kassandra Lynne at [email protected]

The Investment in Yourself:

This is an invitation to reflect on your access to resources and privilege, the value of the work put into these retreats and what you'll get out of it, what you can genuinely afford, and what you might pay for in a comparable retreat experience. By committing to what is truly within your means you make it possible for others to show up within theirs and we are all grateful for this:

1st Tier - $1775- For those who are financially well-resourced, pay it forward pricing that allows us to offer a scholarship spot on this self discovery experience.

2nd Tier - $1575 - For those on medium incomes and access to financial

3rd Tier - $1375 - For those on low incomes, caring responsibilities and from marginalized communities. Flexible payment plans available.

Today's post is shared from my inspiring friend Jane Pike of Confident Rider & Jane Pike: Writing & Poetry ... Love the sentiment here as she breaks down what this phrase really speaks to:

"Birds coast when they can."

"Now, as you travel through your day, really pay attention to the birds you see as they move through the air. Even the tiniest bird, with the smallest of wings, will have moments of suspended rest.
Moments not only of surrender, but of expectation; expectation that the currents around them, the landscape they are a part of will carry them for part of their journey.

Birds coast where they can is a reminder to let yourself be supported.

A reminder to look for opportunities for ease, and where you, yourself, may be complicating things in a way that isn’t necessary. Doing too much for what is required.

The experience of allowing yourself to be carried wherever it’s possible is what makes the experience of flight- of life- sustainable. It doesn’t prevent the moment forward; it’s an intrinsic part of it." - Jane Pike / Confident Rider

My thoughts:

How many of us find it hard to reach out for support or really lean into it? Hands up if that's you! Me too. I've gotten better at it over the years and I am grateful for the solid team I have around me but I'm often still finding myself making things more complicated than they need to be.

The over thinking, the what ifs, elements of micro management overshadowed by a lack of trust that someone or something will come to carry me for part of my journey. On the flip side of that, I have this insurmountable trust in the universe. That everything in fact, will be ok, so long as I get out of my own way. That silly old chestnut!

This surrender & expectation that you can take flight towards whatever your dreams may be is so integral to leading a live well lived. If we continue to flap our wings and never coast, we'll burn out and come crashing down. It doesn't mean you stop what you are doing but that you trust in the bigger picture. That what you are working towards is a part of the collective dream, a interconnected way of being.

How can you create space for sustainability & a opportunity to surrender in your life?

I was at my doctor's office the other day and we started discussing health & wellness as we do. She's not your average run of the mill doc, more on who she is coming soon...But she's an incredible advocate for healthy foundations. She said to me yesterday that we need a wellness system, not a sickness system. By the time people arrive at the hospital or something similar, they are already dealing with the symptoms of a dis-ease that has been long in the making. There are so many contributing factors and so many ways in which we can actually prevent dis-ease, however that shows up for us. More on this soon I promise!

At Rewild Retreats, we wholeheartedly embrace this wisdom. Our mission goes beyond a simple escape; it's about nurturing a profound connection with yourself and the world around you.

🎨 Through creative expression and art therapy, we guide you on a journey of self-discovery. You'll tap into your inner artist, exploring the depths of your emotions and thoughts in a supportive, nurturing environment.

🏞️ Outdoor adventures, though challenging, are a gateway to self-realization. We push boundaries, helping you discover your untapped potential and the incredible feats you're capable of achieving.

🔄 Our approach to wellness is 360°. We don't just focus on connecting with nature, spirituality, and creativity; we address your holistic well-being. From nutrition to environmental awareness, from mindful breathing to trauma healing, we leave no stone unturned.

🥗 Nourish your body with wholesome nutrition, creating a solid foundation for your well-being.

🌍 Understand the impact of your environment and learn to harmonize with it.

🌬️ Harness the power of breath to enhance your mental and physical vitality.

🌱 Embark on a journey of healing, releasing the burdens of the past and embracing a brighter, more vibrant future.

Join us at Rewild Retreats, where we journey together upstream, exploring the depths of your true self while forging an unbreakable connection with self, nature and a thriving, holistic approach to wellness.
