Here's a personal note from Sarah, the organiser, to the sports community in New Zealand about Te Whenua Retreat:

Hey everyone,
Sarah here from Te Whenua Retreat. For those passionate about sports and mindfulness, she's got an exciting opportunity lined up. Sarah is keen to help you find more clarity and presence in your interactions through an 8-week course on Insight Dialogue. You’ll dive into guided meditation, reflection, and small group dialogues to fine-tune those deep listening skills. This is open to everyone, whether you're new to meditation or you’re already practising.
Te Whenua isn't just a retreat centre; it’s a spot where you'll feel right at home. Sarah made sure the private accommodations are comfy and tranquil, giving you the perfect setting to unwind. You'll love the "heart-to-table" plant-focused meals – they’re not just tasty but also great for your body and mind. Sarah’s team whips them up with heaps of love and care to boost your overall wellbeing.
The yoga and meditation space here is serene and purpose-built, inviting you to deepen your practice. Whether you’re a newbie or a seasoned practitioner, it's a peaceful place to connect with yourself, quiet your mind, and find that balance.
Nestled in the stunning Gibbston Valley, Te Whenua Retreat offers breathtaking landscapes that’s perfect for nature lovers. Plus, it’s only 20 minutes from Queenstown airport, so getting here couldn’t be easier, whether you’re local or visiting from afar.
Sarah's vision at Te Whenua isn't just about outer transformation but also inner healing. The retreats and events are designed to slow you down, help you be present, and reconnect. From meditation, yoga, and mindfulness to cooking and art, you’ll find activities that help tap into your inner wisdom and healing power.
Te Whenua offers everything from weekend getaways to day-long relaxation or transformative retreats. It’s a sanctuary for personal growth and wellbeing, where you can recharge, find clarity, and gather inspiration for a balanced, purposeful life.
Looking forward to seeing you at Te Whenua Retreat!
Cheers, Sarah.
