It carries any suppressed or painful memories and indicates our spiritual path; ~ it is our vibrational blueprint and a living testimonial of who we are in soul essence.” \n“Our Voice has a Soul Print that we may have been yearning to unravel since birth; a code that signifies our story\, our ‘make-up’ and our ancestral roots &amp; wisdom.” KARINA SCHELDE \n\nMeet your \nTeacher\nKarina Schelde is a powerful mentor and a masterful facilitator.

I have been living in New Zealand for about 20 years. I started my own Yoga company called Yummy Yoga in 2013 and have enjoyed adding more and more classes to our schedule as the demand has increased. Nicki joined me a few years ago and has become my trusty right-hand Teacher at Yummy Yoga.\nI attended a few Retreats at Mana myself a while back\, and then I started holding my own retreats\, along with Nicki and another awesome teacher. I think this is our fifth retreat at Mana and we seem to enjoy it more every time!We are looking forward to offering another wonderful weekend of delicious self-care! Nicki and I will have many offerings for you – and everything will be optional: Some wonderful walks\, Flow yoga\, Yin Yoga\, Fun Yoga and Yoga Nidra Meditations: All available for those of you would like to join us. \n  \n\nNicki I first started going to yoga classes with my Mom and my Gran when I was about 14 years old. However\, I have memories of looking at a picture book of yoga asana that my Gran had\, when I was just a little girl\, and being fascinated with a picture of someone doing Lion pose (with their tongue sticking out as they “roared”) Even today\, Simhasana is probably one of my favourite poses because it reminds me of my Gran. Although I have been practicing yoga on and off for many years\, I decided to dive deeper into it\, (inspired by Caroline) and to train to become a Yoga Teacher. It has been such a wonderful journey and I cannot wait to get back to Mana and share the beauty of yoga with you all on this fabulous Mana Retreat weekend together! \n\nRegistration\n  \nFor further information about the Retreat\, please see Yummy Yoga \nAnd/Or email Caroline@yummyyoga.co.nz \n

SUMMARY:Reiki Retreat
DESCRIPTION:Every year The Reiki Retreat brings forth magical moments\, great connections between like-minded people. \nTogether\, with intention\, we create a space of expression\, compassion\, learning and growth. Each person’s beautiful frequency joins the energy of the group\, forming a vibrant\, nurturing environment. We come to ground and connect deeper into ourselves\, so that we can lift and expand our vibrations higher collectively. \nHealers rarely get time to heal themselves. For each of us\, there is time to stop\, breathe\, and unravel the tensions and complexities of the past year. To rest body\, mind and soul. There is time to come back to yourself\, and be reminded of the true beauty and strength of your own being. To realign with your own path and reconnect to your gifts. The Reiki Retreat will give you an opportunity for reflection\, learning\, and relaxation\, as well as the nourishment of meditation\, spiritual guidance and growth. \nPerhaps you are rekindling a reiki practice that has been on pause\, or strengthening a current one. For many this retreat is an annual recharge. Four days of energy immersion that gives healing inspiration for the year ahead. The group creates the retreat with their shared presence\, and in this environment you will find all the tools that you need to accomplish your intentions. Your facilitators\, Suzie\, Cherry\, Elisabeth and Tanya\, will gently hold the space and guide the schedule\, as we come together to heal and be healed. \nMana Retreat Centre is spectacularly set against the mountains\, halfway between Coromandel and Thames\, with expansive views to the sea\, valleys\, islands\, undulating hills and endless sky. Nestled between forests and abundant gardens and orchards\, it is a place of true rest\, where your nervous system can flow back into the rhythm of nature and quietness comes as a blessing. Cosy sleeping quarters and the tranquil shared communal areas\, are complimented by the beautiful Mana team who mindfully hold the space for us. Three stunning\, healthy\, vegetarian meals are created lovingly for us each day\, nourishing our bodies and spirits. \nRespected Master / Teacher Uli Brell has held a Reiki Retreat at Mana for the last 17 years. Her powerful vision of compassion and gratitude has drawn together many beautiful Reiki souls. This year\, with Uli’s blessing\, Suzie\, Cherry\, Elisabeth and Tanya will provide the creative possibility for the retreat to continue its healing magic. \nPlease note that Reiki Level I is a minimum requirement to attend the Retreat. \n\nEach day we will enjoy:\n● Giving and Receiving Reiki in different settings\n● Circle of Light\n● Meditations\n● Connecting deeply with the land at Mana\n● Deep Sharing Circles and discussions\n● Drawing of Guidance cards\n● Meeting with like-minded people who love Reiki and Energy Work\n● Resources to help you deepen your relationship with Reiki and yourself\n● Free time to explore the beautiful Mana paths and bushwalks to reconnect with Lady Gaia\n● Time to visit the Tara Sanctuary\, or walk the stone labyrinth.

SUMMARY:Tony Backhouse - Sing Your Heart Out
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a Gospel Singing Weekend with Tony Backhouse \n\nIntroducing Your Teacher \nTony Backhouse\, BA\, B.Mus\, is one of the leaders in the Australasian a cappella movement.Tony Backhouse founded Australia’s foremost a cappella gospel choir Café of the Gate of Salvation in 1986 and directed it for 21 years. He arranged and composed the bulk of their repertoire and still writes music regularly for them. He founded a cappella choir the Honeybees and has directed and sung with the reclusive male a cappella group the Heavenly Light Quartet since 1996. In demand for his inspiring teaching style\, Tony has run more than 2000 vocal workshops throughout the world for the public\, for festivals\, schools\, universities\, churches\, organisation’s and corporate training events. \n  \n  \n\nWhat others have said about Tony \n“He is quite simply the finest vocal arranger he knows and Sam Neill reckons he’s a national treasure” – Tim Finn\nTony Backhouse has been\, and continues to be\, a major influence on music in Sydney and beyond. The a cappella revival is almost entirely due to him – Roi Colbert\, New Zealand Listener \nTony Backhouse’s voice can be heard several times on The Cafe of the Gate of Salvation and each time he manages to cleverly shape otherwise simple melodic lines. He’s very effective at blending into the ensemble and then appearing again\, wrapping around notes\, gliding above the sopranos\, growling between the tenors and baritones. Few ensemble leaders have as clear an understanding of their group’s sonic spectrum\, and how their voice fits within as a soloist – Martin Wesley-Smith\, composer\, Australia \nFor more information about Tony Backhouse\, please visit https://www.tonybackhouse.com/ \n  \n

SUMMARY:Invest in Happiness - Meditation and Yoga Retreat with Susan Allen
DESCRIPTION:The Invitation \n\nRetreats NZ offers a six day meditation and yoga retreat immersion at Mana\, NZ’s most popular retreat centre. A sanctuary nestled in the bush covered hills of the Coromandel. \nThis is an all-included meditation retreat with yoga\, spanning 6 days. It will be a complete retreat for you\, an opportunity for deeper practice\, contemplation and connection with the most beautiful New Zealand has to offer. Covered in native bush with views out to the islands\, Mana has a very unique magic. \nDeepen and refine your meditation practice with this retreat led by experienced teacher and practitioner Susan Allen. \n\n\nOur program \n– Morning and afternoon meditation practice with supporting discussion \n– Q & A where you can get personalised suggestions for your meditation practice \n– Morning and afternoon optional yoga sessions \n– Free time for bush walking\, resting\, reading\, sauna and nature nourishment \n– Full set of meditation audio practices to take home \n \n\nYour teacher \nThe retreat is hosted by one of NZ’s most experienced yoga and meditation teachers\, Susan Allen. Susan has been teaching meditation for over 20 years and has an authentic passion for sharing this transformative practice with other. \n  \n  \n  \n  \n\nThe Meditation Path \n1. Refining concentration\, increasing cognition of when the mind wanders. Almost all meditation techniques have a concentration component. When we become skilful in paying attention\, then the tendency to get lost in thought reduces and the mind begins to quieten. These are often called tranquility practices. Concentration objects include the breath\, mindfulness of body sensations and sound. On this retreat you will learn refinement techniques to improve the stability of your concentration or mindfulness. Stability of mind means peace of mind\, we are more able to focus in our daily life\, we indulge less in negative thought patterns\, our stress levels decrease\, and we feel more at ease. These include intensifying practices which are used to bring greater awareness to background thoughts as well as to the dullness that can develop in the mind when meditating. If your meditation progress is stagnating then this improvement in looking more closely at the object of your concentration will enable you to start progressing again. It is through this increased focus that we experience a stilling of the busyness of the mind; a tranquility and clarity arise. \n2. Insight practices; moving beyond identification with self\, thoughts and emotions. Emptiness practices are a central component of Buddhist meditation. Emptiness means ‘a construction of mind.’ In our meditation\, and of course in our daily lives as well\, we get caught up in\, and strongly identified with our thoughts and emotions. The more identified we are\, the more reactive we will be.\nOn this retreat we will introduce emptiness of self\, emptiness of thought and emptiness of emotion practices. This does not mean having no self\, thoughts or emotions but rather realising experientially how our thoughts and emotions are things that the mind is constructing. When we learn this\, we become less emotionally reactive in our relationships and with ourselves\, we tend to be more open and less rigidly entrenched in our views and opinions. These practices are liberating and freeing\, and most importantly they bring ease and joy. \n3. Resting in awareness; a new basis of operation\nMuch of our daily life we tend to be busy thinking\, we operate a lot out of thought\, and for some of us many of these thoughts are repetitive and negative. However when we learn to still the fluctuations of thought we are able to shift to spending more time in awareness\, an awareness that is beyond the busyness of thinking. When we operate out of awareness there is no reactivity and we feel less self-centred and more connected to others; We will investigate and examine the characteristics of operating out of awareness as opposed to thought – exploring qualities such as spaciousness\, connectedness\, and the tendency to fabricate experience. On this retreat we will then practice taking this off the cushion as we interact with others and the nature around us. \n4. Receive personal guidance around your meditation habits so you keep progressing Each of us have habits that we develop in our practice\, some serve our meditation and others don’t. On this retreat Susan will encourage you to be observant and disciplined in the habits that support your practice and bring more awareness to those that don’t\, both on and off the cushion. Personal suggestions will be given to each student so that you can be inspired to develop this life changing and abundant practice. \n\nInvestment:\nSingle private room – $2\,150\nTwin share room – $1\,740 per person \nREGISTER NOW \n\nWhat others have to say\n“Mana is a hidden gem\, one of those retreats you feel so incredibly lucky you stubbled across. Susan Allen and her 6 day Meditation Retreat has set me up on a beautiful trajectory towards a very ancient practice. Meditation for me now is as important as taking your first breath\, it’s revitalising and life changing and who better to introduce you…Susan. Her ability to teach such a complex mind blowing tradition – it’s an incredible gift. Thank you so very much\, I highly recommend trying it – you wont regret it!” (Lucy R.) \n\nFor more info contact Susan Allen\nhttps://retreats.nz/coromandel-meditation-and-yoga-retreat\nph: +64-21-222-6550\nemail: susan@retreats.nz \n\nTerms and conditions from Susan Allen\n1.
