Touching the Earth
19-25th June Solstice Retreat
Wangapeka Study & Retreat Centre
All the mytho-poets say the same thing - we must leave the village, enter the forest and return with the gift.
Touching the Earth is a guided journey inspired by the work of Bill Plotkin and Joanna Macy. It is a nature-based journey of soul; a retreat to embody your true belonging, confidence, resilience and creativity. It will lead you closer to the conversation of the living earth.
We will explore together through Open Floor movement inquiries, non-dual meditations, guided nature reflections and dreamwork. We will aspire to bring together our bodies, hearts and minds with instincts for wisdom in service to the Great Turning away from an Industrial Growth society towards a Life Sustaining one.

Juliana Griese
I have been exploring and sharing progressively since 2007, contemplative practices/meditation moved by a passion in the area of ecology and community care. I worked for more than 15 years in Brazil with NGOs, the environmental movement and research projects focused on wild animal ecology. I am beginning to explore more deeply and delivering The Work that Reconnects for communities and in retreats. I am a NVC passionate and do my best to put it into practice. I am an enthusiastic supporter of community building. Me and Jaime are a couple in awakening, singing, meditating and building a home together. We have the deepest aspiration to support each other in our growth and collaborate in the Great Turning.
