Details
Tucked away in the stillness of the Northern Rivers hinterland, Breathe Into Love is a fully private, 1:1 weekend retreat for one couple at a time — no groups, no onlookers — only the two of you held in sacred presence upon a tranquil 45-acre sanctuary. Rooted in the healing power of breathwork, meditation, and mindfulness, this retreat is an invitation to pause and come home to one another. Guided breathwork journeys create space for emotional release, deeper listening, and the soft dissolving of words that no longer serve. Between sessions, the land becomes teacher: rest beside the dam, slip into spring-fed plunge pools, cycle the lush Northern Rivers Rail Trail, or surrender to the nurturing heat of the infrared sauna. Wander slowly through the elevated grounds, taking time to walk the land and reconnect with the natural rhythm of the earth. Every meal is a moment of devotion — slowly shared, nourishing to body and bond, and prepared with loving intention. As dusk settles on Saturday, a fire is kindled just for you — beneath a canopy of stars or beside the glowing studio hearth — inviting quiet conversation, soothing baths, and the gentle hush of night. To extend your reconnection beyond the weekend, a complementary 6-week slow breath immersion course is available as a sacred takeaway. Additional offerings such as airport transfers, bike hire, and in-house massage (highly recommended) can also be arranged to enrich your retreat experience. As part of our opening season, this retreat is offered at special promotional pricing for a limited time. This retreat isn’t about fixing; it’s about remembering — remembering how to feel seen, held, and loved through spaciousness, presence, and the quiet rhythm of the breath. Whether navigating distance, seeking deeper intimacy, or simply longing to pause side-by-side, Breathe Into Love offers a soulful return to what matters most: love, truth, and shared stillness.
