Heart & Soul Care Trauma Healing Retreats for Domestic Abuse Survivors

Heart & Soul Care is a not-for-profit charity entitled to receive donations that are tax deductible. Some of the agencies supporting the charity include:  Yoga Impact Charity, Orana, Moving Forward, Leichhardt Women’s Health Center, SAHSSI and the Yoga Foundation.

The retreats support those suffering from the effects of domestic abuse and family violence by providing a holistic retreat experience in a secure and natural community environment that empowers abuse victims with the skills and support needed to recover and heal.

The retreats are the perfect place to heal and recover, close to pristine forests, beaches, organic gardens and wildlife, cliff walks.

All the retreats are run by volunteers, who are experienced clinical psychologists, professional therapists and trauma-informed yoga teachers. Their combined skills and support help heal and provide guests with effective self-care strategies that will carry them forward into a new life, connected to community and self.

The retreats start on Friday afternoon with a welcome circle, dinner and sound healing.  On Saturday and Sunday, activities include Trauma Informed Yoga, nature walks and therapies, Sheng Zhen meditation, SoulCollage , Sound Healing, Meditations, a Self Love workshop and free online courses with Bhakti Rose and As You Are Life School.

The March 25-27 retreat is highly subsidised, with the guest paying $195 for the weekend. This includes all accommodation, meals, counselling and emotional support. We also have a few fully sponsored spots available. Please book early as spaces are limited to 12.
