Heartworks Lomi Lomi Hot Stones Course ... June 2010 ... 2 day workshop

"A wonderful nurturing, nourishing and soul fulfilling weekend. Thankyou for teaching us such a valuable technique and for anabling us to grow within ourselves. A beautiful detox for mind, body and soul." Thankyou. Erin
"A truly joyful experience to de-tox and cleanse the whole body while learning a wonderful new healing massage technique." GV.
"Wonderful feel from the first arrival - covered a lot of material while still keeping it fun and light hearted." Leif.



Often we want to explore a new skill or treat ourselves to a special experience, but are put off by the thought that it may be beyond our ability or won't give us any ongoing value. Well I think we all need to be pampered occasionally and I think it is great to learn new things, so here is a weekend where you can achieve both.... Heartworks Lomi Lomi massage is one of the most luxurious massages you could ever wish to receive, it is simple and non strenuous to learn & give. The beautiful thing about our course is that you get to spend 3 days in an idyllic bush land retreat, being looked after with beautiful gourmet meals, sharing great fun company, taught by highly trained facilitators whilst giving and especially receiving lots and lots of wonderful massages all weekend........ahhhhhh There is time to lie in the sun, bush walking or just watch the wallabies graze on the lawn...but most of all you will be nurturing yourself. After all this beautiful self indulgence, you will have a wonderful skill that you can share with friends & relatives or there is even the possibility to earn a little extra money from home giving massages. Anything is possible. Heartworks Lomi Lomi is a wonderful massage that incorporates the awareness of energy healing through the hands, it can be combined with many other modalities to increase and compliment your skill range if you already work in this area. A wonderful way to celebrate a wedding anniversary or give as a gift to a special friend or family member.

Come and experience how to give a Hawaiian style massage in a hands-on healing & learning residential workshop.
Heartworks Lomi Lomi works with opening the heart using hands, breathing, rhythm and energy flow. Using the hands as the instruments of the heart, you can open up on all levels, to let go of the old and make room for the new energy and love.

"Level Two"

Expand on the teachings of LEVEL 1 to take your massage further and expand your own heart to share the loving touch in a pure and honest healing massage.
The Heartworks Lomi Lomi method is a form of healing therapy that has its roots firmly planted in the intuitive or spiritual core of bodywork.
Using the medium of touch from the heart and inner focus through meditation we can heal ourselves, release the past and embrace the now with an open heart.

" Intimate Life Healing "

Discover your true self, sexually and spiritually utilising teachings from the Taoist and Tantric philosophecy.

We are lucky enough to be able to offer our weekend workshops privately with just one couple at a time, giving you all our attention and a far more personal experience to truely discover your inner God and Goddess.
OR
We are taking individual students in a 9 week program of weekly sessions (approx 3- 4 hrs each) to discover your own spiritual / sexual path in life.

Bringing about a greater intimacy into your true selves and with others .....INTIMACY....."into me I see"

The couples weekend workshop is done over a two day period with all meals and accommodation included, you get the comfort and quiet of the lodge all to yourselves, as well as use of pool and other facilities .
We structure the workshop to suit your needs after discussing it with you in a pre-workshop interview. (either in person or by phone)
The individual course is done as weekly visits here with either Gillian or Barry (or both) generally they are about 3 or 4 hours of exercises , demonstrations & discussion.

"Tantra is not just a collection of techniques to enhance sexual experience. It is a complete science of self-realization, based on the cumulative wisdom of centuries of exploration into the meaning of life and consciousness. Tantra the word means 'to weave' is a set of powerful, transformative tools that can be used to bring new meaning and joy to every aspect of our daily life. You are the lab; the whole experiment is to go on within you. This is not a religion, this is a science. No belief is needed. Only a daringness to experiment is enough; courage to experiment is enough." Osho

Situated on 77 acres of native bush land, at the southern end of the Watagan ranges and adjacent to state forest. The retreat sits high on a cleared plateau with bush and native wildlife all around. Peace and quiet as well as privacy. Though still only 10 minutes to the shops.

We are located on the Central Coast (north of Wyong) and just 10 minutes to the F3 freeway and 50 minutes to either Sydney or Newcastle, making it a very accessible venue for this region. Our entry is via a 3.5 km drive on forest road, which gives us our special seclusion.

Accommodation is a fully self-contained 30 bed lodge with 9 bedrooms containing single bunks and double/queen beds (blankets & pillows provided). Large lounge area, dining area & fully equipped kitchen. Two double bathrooms and change room. (BYO linen).

Many facilities are available to guests including the 11 meter ionized & solar heated swimming pool and BBQ gazebo, the 144 sq./m barn (club, activity or seminar room), private meditation room and many fresh water dams and walking trails.

The "BARN" is a beautiful rustic building (144sq/m) with a sound system, 2 wood heaters and lots of atmosphere. Perfect for workshop groups and gatherings.

There is also a small meditation room, situated in the centre of the lawn, perfect for small group meditations, massage, healing or simply having some quiet time .

A very important point, our retreat is fully self-sufficient on tank water and SOLAR POWER, due to this we request that NO electrical items be brought to the retreat without first checking with us. i.e. no hairdryers, electric kettles, toasters or heaters. We ask you to be aware of how you use all powered items, only leave lights on that you need and be aware that the water is pumped via an electric pump as well. When necessary a generator comes on automatically to back-up the solar system.
We live and encourage a minimilist, sustainable lifestyle, using resources wisely.
               There is always power, we just use it wisely.                

Activities are endless depending on the needs of the workshop & individuals. The retreat is clothing optional (by arrangement only) and can usually accommodate most requests. Bush walking, mountain biking, meditation, vision questing, yoga, massage, spiritual healing & solitude are all available by arrangement. There are no structured or set activities everyday, we try to work to the needs of our guests. We tailor our workshops to your individual requirements.

Regular visits from local wildlife of all kinds, the red-neck wallabies are a particular favorite.
