EARTH ENERGIES SANCTUARY RETREAT REFLECTION
Jul 14, 2021
Serene, tranquil, peaceful, relaxation at its finest… was exactly how I felt about the Earth Energy Sanctuary Retreat that my partner and I had the privilege of experiencing just a few short weeks ago.
I’ll be honest, I was on the brink of burning out, and in desperate need to slow down when we booked ourselves some much needed time off. However, if you know anything about me, you’ll know I am very much an active relaxer.
Whenever I am on holiday or travelling, it is often about how much I can cram into the time away. Whether that is exploring new places, reading a certain number of books or focusing on completing things that are helping me work on the business, but not in it.
But I knew this holiday had to be different, or I would come back just as burnt out as when I left.
So, when I found Earth Energies Sanctuary I was truly so excited! It sounded perfect and just what we needed. Unfortunately, at such short notice, they were fully booked for months in advance.
Knowing deep in my heart that this was calling me, I set my mind to it, and decided to try my luck anyway! I was so fortunate that the beautiful owner was beyond generous and chose to open up for us specially on a Sunday when they are normally closed so we could have the magical experience.
THE EXPERIENCE
The day started out with a warm mug of tea with honey made from the organic farm on the land, and a foot bath whilst we got the rundown on our day ahead. First treatment was an intimate red light sauna experience with my partner and I, followed by a float tank (I loved this so much, I even fell asleep), we shared some light nibbles before having an aromatherapy massage.
It was during the massage that I was able to just completely surrender, my body had already had a couple of hours of relaxation by this point, and Marie (owner) said to me “no one needs anything from you right now”… and it was exactly what my body and mind needed to give myself full permission to just relax. I was in a state of pure bliss!
After the massage I was moved to a zero gravity chair (so cool) for secrets of the skull treatment and deeper relaxation. We then had some further time to spend together as a couple, a few more snacks and then a hypnotherapy treatment, working through the chakras to round out the day.
LESSONS LEARNED
The service and serenity that this retreat offered us was so transformative, I honestly can’t remember ever being so relaxed in my life! I was truly grateful for this experience and the precious time I got to spend with my partner – a recharge both of us needed!
It taught me just how important it is to slow down and actually switch off, not switch to the next productive thing, and it is something I have tried to apply to my daily life since returning!
If you are in need of a break or getaway, (this is in no way sponsored btw), then I couldn’t recommend Marie and Duncan’s Earth Energies Sanctuary!
Yours in Health,
