Who Are You? Who Am I?
Kinder Respectful Relationships with the Enneagram
A 3-day weekend Retreat
Anita
I came to the Retreat to sit with some big decisions. I hoped to gain clarity and find some peace around my purpose and which way to move forward.
The experience and the insights I gained from the weekend has allowed me to discover an authentic sense of self. I can accept the way I feel, knowing I have the tools to choose how I respond. This means greater calm, clarity and purpose for me.
It was lovely to meet new people and share wonderful food during our meal breaks.
I don’t usually do yoga, but this yoga was different, more holistic and meditative…bringing me into the present.
Because of the design of the course, there is literally something for everyone to connect to, learn about themselves and grow from over this weekend. Just do it!
Millions of individuals are grappling with these questions, in the face of conflicting messages about who we should be, how to behave and what’s important in life. We know we need to grow and evolve, but often the journey takes us away from where we want to go and it’s difficult to know when to go with it, and when to take control.
At this 3 day retreat, you will explore body, mind and soul with daily yoga, meditation, and insightful exploration of the enneagram.
The enneagram - meaning map of 9 - is a spiritual & psychological tool, that offers deep insight into personality, including our motivations, fears & defence mechanisms that often lay buried in the unconscious layers of our personality.
It helps you to understand why & how it is that you are as you are, supporting both emotional & spiritual growth.
As you deepen your awareness of what drives you, so too you deepen your understanding of others, cultivating kinder, respectful relationships built on peaceful connection & belonging.
At this 3-day retreat, you will discover the wisdom of this ancient map, to better understand yourself and others. You will gain insight into the 9 different personality traits, delving into the core motivations, defence mechanisms & fears that lie in the unconscious layers of the psyche. You will discover how to recognise the qualities of each type and develop greater respect and appreciation for their gifts.
This retreat brings together the practice of yoga and meditation with the wisdom of the enneagram, so you can better understand your ‘self’, your colleagues, peers & loved ones; enhancing communication, understanding & connection to enjoy kinder, respectful and collaborative relationships.
It is a non-residential retreat, giving you the opportunity to split your time between home & the retreat space, enjoying the best of both during the long weekend, without the expense of travel & accommodation.

Bronwyn
I joined Tania’s Kinder Relationships workshop because I wanted to transition to a more balanced lifestyle for my long-term health. After attending the Kinder Relationships retreat, I feel empowered to make better choices. Tania gave me a workable framework to understand myself and achieve the best outcomes, without needing people around me to make that change. It has improved my confidence to start making relationship choices and I feel very lucky to have chanced upon this kind of guidance!
