 Exploring ways of being in nature

Leave us a message and we will get back to you with more info and a registration link shortly.

The School of Being are hosting our very first in person retreat in beautiful Jervis Bay on Yuin Country to explore practices to restore wellbeing within ourselves, our relations, our places and our living world. Our learning journeys aim to develop inner capacity to help you to increase your presence, your capacity to sense and respond, resilience, and creativity.
The retreat will be held on a beautiful 8 acre bush property close to national parks and beaches in Jervis Bay (2-2.5 hours from Sydney and Canberra).
This weekend immersion is for people interested in wellbeing and new ways of being, who wish to explore practices informed by Somatic, Creative, Nature-based and Regenerative approaches within a small learning community.
Together, we will work with practices that can support the inner changes required for individual and collective transformation. Through cultivating deeper awareness of ourselves, we are better placed to reimagine and actualise a flourishing living world for our lives and all of our kin.
It is our intention that you leave rested, nourished, and connected to yourself, each other and with nature.
The retreat is designed for a small group (approx. 8, so please register soon if you would like to come.
Come gather with a like-mined and like-hearted community.
