Description

Are you a parent of a child with additional needs or disabilities and are used to holding everything and everyone - even when you’re running on empty?

You might feel exhausted, stretched thin.

This gentle space is your chance to pause, breathe, and reconnect.

A space where you get to be held.

This 3-hour retreat offers an opportunity to step out of the constant doing, and into a space where you can simply be - supported, held, and understood.

Facilitated by Niina

  • Special Education teacher

  • Inclusion Specialist

  • Certified Breathwork and Yin Yoga teacher

  • Parent of two deaf and autistic children

  • Blending professional expertise with lived experience, Niina offers a space that feels inclusive, understanding, and real — where you don’t have to explain yourself, and you don’t have to hold it all together.

What to Expect

During this retreat, you will have…

🌿 Opportunities to regulate your nervous system through guided Breathwork and Yin Yoga (always at your own pace, with options to rest or pause)

🌿 Gentle invitations to notice and soften what you may be holding — physically, mentally, or emotionally

🌿 Reflection and mindset activities to support clarity, self-awareness, and grounding

🌿 A creative craft activity, with freedom to engage in a way that feels right for you

🌿 Connection with other carers who may understand the complexities of your journey — with no pressure to share

🌿 Light refreshments, tea, and a cacao ritual offered in a calm, supportive space

The Intention

This isn’t about “fixing” yourself or doing it better.

It’s about letting go of pressure, recharging your energy, and reconnecting with yourself - while being supported by people who truly get it.

A gentle return to calm, clarity, and grounding.

Tickets:

Early Bird: $100 (until 3rd May)

$120

Includes light refreshments, tea, cacao, and all materials
