April 1-9, 2024 I will be leading a 9-day Beyond Trauma workshop hosted by Nature Connexion is designed to help you move past trauma, liberate yourself from emotional burdens, and transform your life. Join me as we embark upon a nature-based healing journey in the South African wilderness as I guide you on the path toward post-traumatic growth.
Not only will this course demystify trauma and the pain it causes, but it will empower you with the resources to help you move past hopelessness as you reclaim your strength and courage. This program which is based upon my award winning book, The Post-Traumatic Growth Guidebook, includes therapeutic writing, guided meditations, conscious breathing, vagal toning, and gentle therapeutic yoga to rewire your resilience.

Discover the Detailed Beyond Trauma Program
Trauma affects the best of us, and its effects can linger, limiting your ability to live with joy and abundance. Whether it occurred during a single event or repeated trauma, recently or in childhood, it can have lifelong effects: anxiety, depression, chronic health issues, flashbacks, a disconnection from the body, trust and intimacy challenges, or feeling worthless and broken.
Yet, as impossible as it may seem, you can return to wholeness.
Beyond Trauma is a retreat designed to support your wellbeing and growth after trauma.
In this heart-opening and experiential setting, you’ll:
You’ll discover that accessing your intrinsic wisdom with practical tools can help you feel more connected to yourself and others — and view these traumatic times as a portal leading to unparalleled growth and empowerment.
Limpopo province is a land of beautiful and contrasting landscapes with scenic beauty and a diversity of wildlife. The highlight of this program will take place in the Timbavati game reserve which provides home for lion, leopard, rhino, elephant, and buffalo.
You will become a bush explore through authentic safaris escorted by professional field guides on foot and in open 4 x 4 vehicles.
Being away from light pollution will allow you to be awed by the millions of stars flickering above your head…Big Skies and Big Dreams.
You will visit the Kruger national park, Blyde River Canyon which is the 3rd largest canyon in the world and visit an elephant orphanage.
This event has been designed to be available to everyone; it is an all-levels event, open to anyone. No specific physical condition is required. The walking terrain is flat and easy and the yoga will be gentle. Any movements offered can also be done seated in a chair. Comfortable clothing is recommended for ease of movement.
Space is limited: This program is limited to 25 attendees to provide a uniquely tailored experience for you.
I hope that you will join me.
