Dear beautiful souls,

I hope that this message finds you well, as we begin our transition into Spring, probably my favourite season, as we are called to return to the light. ☀️💫✨

Sometimes we can forget that this world is filled with light, and for sure, that depends on where we choose to put our focus, as when we look to the news or when we find ourselves in challenging situations, it can be difficult to see it.

In moments like this, I remember the quote from the famous and poet Rumi:

“If everything around seems dark, look again, you may be the light!”.

For it is my belief that we all have a light within us, and the most important thing that we can do for ourselves, for those around us, and for the world, is to tend to that light. It’s always there, we just need to remember and nurture and protect it.

This Springtime, this moment in time, it feels more important than ever, and this has become my intention for my work – to help others rediscover their light.

Of course, the right environment helps, which is why I am passionate about bringing people to spend time in the Sun and by the Sea; just watching sunrise and sunsets, seeing the light on the water, experiencing the “blue mind” effect has an incredibly powerful impact on our wellbeing, and over the years, especially in Croatia, I have seen people literally transform throughout a week’s retreat, not just physically but emotionally and even spiritually.

If this sounds like something that you would benefit from, and the idea of a week just rediscovering the light within you, then I have a few options over 2025.
