'Explore Yourself & Free Yourself' - One day Enneagram Retreat at La Tierra Curativa - Fri Jul 23rd 2021
Friday July 23rd @ La Tierra Curativa, Ourimbah, Central Coast, NSW
“Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.” - Aristotle
Are you intrigued to explore why you think and act in certain ways?
How you show up in relation with others and the world around you?
When fear and anxiety seek to overwhelm you, do you understand why?
Do you ever ask yourself ‘who am I’? Well, who is this sense of self that you take yourself to be?
Would you like some answers?
Are you ready to EXPLORE yourself?
And at the same time, to FREE yourself?
"Life changing - is how I would describe the One Day Enneagram Retreat 'Explore yourself & Free yourself. I've doubted myself for a long time and this is the start of a new me and a new understanding of myself. I now have CLARITY on who, what, why I am who I am. I also feel COURAGEOUS and speaking up in the group gave me confidence."
Con Mitsou - 'Explore Yourself & Free Yourself' 2019 attendee
"The day was a beautiful combination of mind-body awareness and personal growth. An opportunity to reflect on myself, giving me a deeper understanding of my enneagram type and how I relate in the world. I realized that it’s ok for the world to see me as accomplished and achieving".
Angela Farrell - 'Explore Yourself & Free Yourself' 2020 attendee
THE EXPERIENCE:
A One day Retreat Journey woven with nurturing flow yoga, healing yin yoga, developmental coaching, facilitated conversation, Enneagram experiential workshops, meditation, pranayama, nature immersion and relaxation.
Begin your journey to Freedom on this one day reflective and awakening retreat to explore yourself and free yourself using the wisdom of the Enneagram.
The Enneagram is a map of human nature experienced through nine distinct personality types that describe how we think, feel, act and how we stand in relation with the world and others.
Your exploration and discovery will be an experience of reflection and inquiry through shared narrative and dialogue, meditation and yoga.
"Thank you for a beautifully and skilfully facilitated day, full of calm reflection, challenging insights and wonderful epiphanies. All wrapped up in a beautiful hug of meditation, yin yoga, essential oils and kind, respectful non judgmental participants who shared so openly and honestly. The day has been a gentle walk into me. I discovered hidden parts of myself without judgement. I learnt so much about other types of people and their personalities. I will now be able to say 'no' instead of 'yes' and will be able to face conflict. Thank you all for a fabulous day."
Wendy Ballard, 'Explore Yourself & Free Yourself' 2019 attendee

WHAT YOU'LL DISCOVER ABOUT YOURSELF:
• Your inner motivation that informs your sense of self
• The unique gifts that you bring to yourself, others and the world
• See what has been unseen for you, hidden from your conscious awareness, ready to awaken you to your true potential
• Understand your trigger points, how you react to challenges and the habituated thinking patterns that limit your potential
• How you show up in relation with others
"A safe and enlightening journey on the road to further understanding and growth. I now have tools to take with me to integrate into my life and relationships. I now recognise that my fear of conflict can mess with my equilibrium and authenticity. I also see that my inability to say 'no' leads to an unhealthy unbalanced me that impacts those around me. Thank you for the Enneagram teachings."
Kerry Bower - 'Explore Yourself & Free Yourself' 2019 attendee

"I am now aware of the hidden aspects of my personality. The more aware I become of myself, the more I grow. 'Explore yourself and Free yourself' retreat was a journey into self and others to learn and embrace how to be our authentic selves. I learnt how to work on my strengths and turn my weaknesses into strengths. The day retreat showed me how to see these qualities in others and how to communicate with others effectively. I now see that we're all not very different, and that we're all experiencing a battle inside, so kindness is key."

YOUR ENNEAGRAM RETREAT HOST:


Louise Walker is the founder and owner of www.louisewalker.com.au. Previously Louise has worked at The Golden Door (now Elysia Wellness Retreat) as the in-house Transformational NLP coach, Wellness & Resilience coach, and yoga & meditation teacher.
What I have learnt about myself during the coaching, is that I am the author of my reality. I choose how I feel and what I do. Everything is a choice. This has been a very liberating realisation. As a coach, Louise is very intuitive and a fantastic listener. I felt nurtured and encouraged the entire program.”
