Medicine Wheel Magic retreat
20-22 June 2025
This Matariki will see a very special retreat in the beautiful environment of the Samadhi rural retreat centre near Ōtaki.
Come together with a small group in the peaceful natural surrounds at Samadhi for a weekend of magic on the medicine wheel, with some ceremonies, healing techniques, qi gong, yoga, and forest bathing. We will celebrate the rising of Matariki in the skies this weekend, connecting the Medicine Wheel system of earth astrology with the constellation of Matariki, the Pleiades, as well as grounding ourselves deeply into Gaia.
There will be opportunities to stretch your body and your mind, with exploration of the connection between the two, with some excellence guidance by Rebekah, who is trained and qualified in ascension meditation, and Millie Forsyth who is a trained yoga teacher.
We will also have four sessions on an ancient powerful forgiveness and self-healing technique which is great for freeing you from problems, transmuting negative feelings and healing personal relationships. As well as using this personally, we will be applying it to our relationship with Gaia.
If you’re experiencing stress (and who isn’t?) this retreat offers you the chance for some deep personal and Earth healing and is a great time for galactic connection.
You will have some free time available to enjoy the beautiful environment and your companions with some delicious vegetarian food and comfortable shared accommodation, deep in the heart of the Magic Forest.
The price of $599 includes two nights’ shared accommodation and all meals and activities. Massages may be available on request, paid separately. If you can’t afford the cost, please inquire about our exchange opportunities.
Don’t miss this chance to connect more with the earth and the stars and your self.
Samadhi owner and facilitator Rebekah Palmer will be on hand during the weekend to keep you comfortable and soothe your soul with her particular manaakitanga, meditation and mindfulness.
Our yummy yoga teacher will be Millie Forsyth who has more than 20 years’ experience and currently works at Freyberg in Wellington as a Yoga instructor and Personal Trainer.
