"The retreat was amazing, a wonderful insight into who we are as spiritual, mindful and receptive souls. I came away with a sense of calm, of letting go, of not being afraid to be ME.

"I had no expectations of what to expect from this retreat but WOW...from the moment I arrived and was greeted by Erin's beautiful smile I suddenly felt a calmness.Through this retreat I have realised the benefits of self care and have found a calmness within me which I didn't even know existed. From a group of strangers, the bond between the Women grew quickly and it was such a pleasure to spend time with these Women. The setting and food was beautiful! "

WHERE WE STAY
One of the world’s most beautiful retreats, Sangsurya is a unique jewel in Byron’s crown. A social enterprise built on the foundation of love, pure intention and service to humanity by the late Mona and Tony Kruger, Sangsurya Retreat Centre has been a place of refuge and healing for thousands of people from all four corners of the globe for 30 years. In the peaceful environment of Sangsurya Retreat Centre you’d never know you were just a few minutes away from downtown Byron Bay, and its diverse range of cafes, restaurants, idyllic beaches and a host of local recreational activities.
Sangsurya is a Sanskrit inspired word meaning “a place where the sun reaches everybody”. Built along the forested ridge of a 10 acre property with easterly views overlooking Arakwal Aboriginal land to the Pacific Ocean, our environmentally friendly retreat venue offers seclusion and tranquillity in the heart of nature, and a sanctuary in which to escape the pressures of a busy life. In these uncertain times, with technology disconnecting us from nature and stress related illness on the rise, spending time in the beauty of Sangsurya is more important than ever.

"This was such a wholesome retreat - a beautiful environment which helped me relax and welcome each section of each day. From day one I did not want it to end. Coming together with a group of unknown Women and feeling a kinship and sisterhood was heart opening. Developing a deep sense of gratitude for just BEING has satisfied my soul and enriched my mind, body and heart. Erin is such an amazing teacher and Woman and I am inspired to walk in her ways. I feel truly blessed."

One of the intentions for this retreat is for you to feel that you have gotten way more value than you paid for. Based on the feedback from 100% of previous retreat participants, this is absolutely the case.
Part of the teachings during this retreat is about decision-making based on feelings (we'll be working on getting very familiar with what 'yes' and 'no' feels like) rather than succumbing to doubt because something is new and you're unsure.
Try it now: take a few deep breaths, and then ask yourself: Based on what I know about this retreat so far, does it feel expansive to say YES?
