Returning to the body’s deep remembrance of safety.

There is a moment on every healing path when we realise that beneath all our searching; for love, peace or purpose, what we are truly longing for is safety.

From a shamanic perspective, that safety is not something we create, it’s something we remember. It lives in the body and it lives in the Earth. When we come back into relationship, the steadiness of the ground beneath us, the breath of the wind, the warmth of the sun; our whole system begins to soften.

Forever Held is an invitation to rest inside that remembrance. A journey back to the deep medicine of safety, where the body, the Earth and the unseen weave together to remind you that you are and have always been, held.

I’m delighted to welcome you to our incredibly beautiful new location in Menorca. It has taken some time to find this gorgeous and charming venue and there is no more beautiful a time to experience this than May, my favourite month on the island when the land bursts alive with wildflowers, the air hums with gentle warmth and everything is in bloom, yet the island feels unhurried and so peaceful. It’s as if the Earth herself is exhaling and inviting us to do the same.

We will reside in the heart of Menorca, where ancient stone walls breathe and wild herbs whisper beneath your feet, in a Menorquian sanctuary shaped by sunlight and silence. A place where life slows, presence deepens and the soul can finally exhale. In May, the meadows are a tapestry of colour, the air scented with rosemary and lemon blossom and every path lined with wild fennel and lavender, nature’s own altar to safety and renewal.

Forever Held is a retreat for those longing to feel safe again, not just in thought but in the living, breathing language of the body. Safety is the quiet ground beneath all healing; the place from which love, rest and creativity can emerge. When we remember it, something inside us softens. The shoulders drop, the jaw unclenches, the breath returns home AND WE RELAX.

Over all the years of curating and presenting healing retreats I’ve come to understand that what most people are truly seeking is not bliss or awakening or transcendence, it’s safety. The simple, sacred safety of being met exactly as you are. The safety to feel. The safety to unravel. The safety to be seen. When that safety is present, everything changes and healing happens naturally, love flows freely and the body remembers how to trust life again.

And I have also found that when we reconnect with the earth energy medicine, the groundedness of soil beneath our feet, we feel held by something ancient and vast. Working with this medicine brings us back into harmony with the natural order and through that connection, the body finally feels safe to rest, to heal and to open again.

This retreat is an invitation to rediscover what it means to be held – by your own body, by the land beneath you, by the pulse of life itself. Through Shamanic Kundalini Yoga, Breathwork, soul rest practices, sound and ceremony, we will explore the deep medicine of safety as both a physical and spiritual path. We’ll learn to meet ourselves with compassion, to listen more closely and to rest in the knowing that we are supported, seen and safe to BE.

During our nourishing days together, we’ll move gently between practice and pause, opening the body in the mornings with powerful SKY practices, delving deeper in our workshop time, softening into stillness in the afternoons and gathering in the evenings for deeply relaxing practices, ceremony and sound journeys beneath the sunsetting sky. We’ll work with the elements; earth, water, fire, air and ether as guides for the nervous system, mirrors for our inner rhythm and reminders that safety is nature’s default state.

Safety, in it’s truest form, is not the absence of challenge, it’s the presence of connection. It’s the ability to stay with ourselves, to trust the intelligence of our own bodies, to let life hold us even when things are uncertain. Together we’ll explore how safety feels, looks and sounds in the body: the softening of the belly, the warmth in the chest, the quiet pulse of “I am home.”

The retreat space is deeply rooted in the landscape — surrounded by olive groves, open skies and the quiet hum of nature. In May, everything is alive and tender, the mornings are bright, the evenings long and golden. Each room is designed for comfort and reflection. Each corner invites presence. Every detail reminds you: you are safe to rest here.

During your stay, you’ll be nourished by fresh, local, plant-based meals, rest, nature and the gentle rhythm of island life. There will be time to move, to be still, to laugh, to feel, to reconnect with the simplicity of being alive.

This is not a retreat of doing. It’s a remembering – a homecoming to the part of you that knows how to rest, how to trust, how to receive. When we root into that truth, the body exhales, the heart opens and life begins to flow again – softer, steadier and more alive.
