A Day to Exhale

Step away from the busyness of life, slow down and allow yourself a day to relax and replenish.

Join me for A Day to Exhale, held at the beautiful Pūtara Star Loghouse in Minden, Bay of Plenty.

Spaces are limited. Book your place today by contacting Laree Te Kanawa: coaching@lareetekanawa.com

This retreat is an invitation to pause, reconnect and give your nervous system the space to slow down.

Throughout the day, we’ll move, breathe, enjoy nourishing food, laugh, connect, learn and relax.

There is no pressure to achieve anything and nowhere else you need to be. This is your day to exhale, fill your cup and feel good.

Your retreat experience includes:

Yoga & Breath-work

Move, breathe, release tension and reconnect with your body through a gentle and grounding practice suitable for all levels.

Divine Energy Session

Martina Kissel will guide us through a 30-minute Divine Energy session, to further enhance a calm and relaxed state of mind & body.

Nourishing Food

Enjoy a delicious and nutrient dense vegan lunch with teas and banana bread.

Sauna, Cold Plunge & Hot Tub (optional)

Unwind, refresh and enjoy the beautiful wellness facilities at your own pace.

Cacao Ceremony

Gather for a cacao ceremony with cacao generously provided by Māmāmuti. This will be a moment to slow down, connect and set an intention before our final restorative session.

Sound Bath & Guided Meditation

We’ll end our day with a deeply restorative sound bath and guided meditation, allowing you to rest, receive and gently integrate the experience.
