In this transformative retreat, you'll delve into the intricacies of relationships and gain valuable insights and tools to enhance your connections. With the support of Family Constellation Therapy and grounding movement, we’ll explore the hidden dynamics that shape how we relate—to ourselves, to others, and to those who came before us.

By addressing and healing these dynamics, you can create a ripple effect that frees your children from inherited patterns and fosters healthier relationships for future generations.
What we heal within ourselves can heal our children.
Relationships can be at the core of everything we do.

This retreat is ideal for:

Individuals seeking to understand and improve their personal relationships
Couples looking to strengthen their bond and navigate challenges together
Families wanting to heal and enhance their familial connections
Anyone thinking about having children or have children and wanting to break cycles
People curious about how their past influences their present
Those wanting tools and insights to foster healthier relationships in all areas of life

Their collaborative facilitation draws on both personal and professional experience, bringing together relational depth, systemic awareness, and a calm, steady presence that holds participants with care and confidence.

Jo brings a compassionate and holistic approach to healing. With a background in teaching, postgraduate studies in counselling and guidance, and training in Reiki and Yin Yoga, she creates a nurturing, intuitive space where participants feel deeply supported and seen. Her work is grounded in honouring each person’s unique path and capacity to transform.

John is a trained facilitator in Family Constellation Therapy, bringing a steady and grounded presence to every retreat. His background in carpentry reflects his values and deep connection to nature.

His love for sustainable living and mindful building complements the healing journey, offering a solid foundation for others to explore, release, and reconnect.

Together, Jo and John have been walking life’s path as partners for over 26 years. Their shared experience infuses each retreat with authenticity, integrity, and heartfelt care. This creates a retreat space that feels safe, real, and deeply held—where participants are invited not just to witness their own patterns, but to feel supported by a living example of relational resilience and connection.
