Retreats with a personal touch

Welcome brother / sister,

Honoured to have you visit us and for you to have been led this way.

It is our passion to serve, to truly help people at the deepest level to release what holds them back, to feel the Higher Love that calls them and to know that they are held in the arms of Great Spirit.

Every retreat with us is different as we specialise in connecting with your I AM Presence/Higher Self to ask what you really need to help you on the journey of healing your heart and soul. This can be done for an individual or guidance for a group.

This is why all are retreats are tailored to who is called to join and what they need. Not what we think they need, yes that can sometimes come in intuitive flow but by feeling intuitively and receiving messsages and images from the Higher Self of the person or people who are coming to truly serve what their God/Goddess Self shares with us.

This is by far the most effective way to work with the energies of Spirit. Believe us when we say it has taken so many years for both us us to be able to hold a space like this and to receive this wisdom. Both Grey Elk and White Feathers Woman are Xhosa Bead Carriers and have been blessed with Universal Pipes from the Cree Nation. They have both been through the spiritual initiations that occur to serve, the initiations of life that can break you down just so you can serve better and be a better vessel, as you become the hollow bone for Great Spirit to move through.

During our work we really encourage you to let what resonates, if we use words that do not resonate, change them so they resonate with you, after all we are connecting in with the One Spirit of Source Love that has over a million names - the Nameless One that is the Source of All. So we tend to use I AM Presence/Higher Self to represent that part that is connected to you i.e. your God Goddess Self or your true Spirit.

About your Retreat Leaders

Grey Elk (Paul O’Halloran) and White Feathers Woman (Melanie O’Halloran-Gomes) are your retreat leaders, with a collective experience of over 50 years in energy work.

Melanie O’Halloran-Gomes (White Feathers Woman – Water Rose Priestess & Medicine Woman)

Melanie was led to the spiritual work through her health and life’s experiences.

Melanie trained as a marine conservation biologist and worked for 20 years in different fields. Melanie remains very passionate about the sea and has been led to believe that health and consciousness are deeply related and nature is one of our greatest teachers.

Melanie is shamanically trained and fully initiated to Medicine Woman and is also trained as a Rose Priestess and a Moon Mother. Melanie was initiated directly by the water spirits and has received a gift from the sea - the water rose. Melanie has assisted Paul with many of the shamanic courses and primarily works with rose initiations, deep soul healing, Rahanni Celestial Healing and kambo.

Paul O’Halloran (Grey Elk - Shaman)

Paul grew up on a farm in Connemara, West of Ireland, where cutting turf, saving hay and milking cows were the order of the day! Paul then went on to join the Irish army and spent 9 years serving in the forces, including being sent overseas with United Nations peacekeeping force. During this time, while serving in Lebanon, Paul had a near death experience and came home with a different outlook on life.

Paul is fully initiated in the Xhosa lineage and has many years experience of healing land and houses and people and has worked on healing around 5,000 properties in Ireland. This work has had shamanism at the very core of it and as such Paul now teaches shamanic studies at the Pathway teaching School of Shamanic Studies. His work focuses on shamanic training through the courses and workshops and healing (both land and people).

Paul with Melanie run Pathway teaching – Healing for the Heart and Soul. Please see the website www.pathwayteaching.com for more details thank you!

For more details on your retreat leaders please see here. Thank you.

How long are the personalised retreats?

They can be 1, 2, or 3 days totally up to you and how much you wish to do. For longer periods we run retreats for groups and retreats on set dates such as the retreat for the Shamanic Rose Spiral, the Healing for the Heart and Soul Retreat and the Water Rose Spiral.

How do I know if I am ready?

If you have anything in you that you feel you need to heal, or anything in you that you feel you could do with help to release be it a repeating story, be it repetitive dreams, emotions that seem irrational, fears that you don’t understand these can all be things that have a deeper resonance and that are there to help you to find the path into your own heart and of your souls call. We take people with no experience in energy work and with experience as long as you are open and are sincerely willing to give it a go.

If you feel you are called to this special island, that has multiple energy lines that help the evolution of the soul and the healing of the heart, you are welcome to go ahead to book a free call with us to arrange your personalised retreat or see below for the process! Thank you.

Process of attending a personalised retreat with us:

Please contact us when you feel you are interested in planning a personalised retreat with us and we will schedule a free zoom call to talk with you, we sometimes pick up alot from the call as we listen and spend time with you to feel into what you are sharing and its deeper meaning. The vibration of the story often gives us real clues as to what the soul is calling you to heal next! Please write down any dreams or repeating thought patterns/ behaviour patterns that you may feel you need to work on or that may be messages from your Soul. Then if you wish to go ahead and book we send you the booking link with a non-refundable, non-exchangeable booking fee of 250Euros.

You then email us a photograph (if its a group we can discuss the group and then ideally before the group comes to the Azores we will have their names) and we tune in and ask your Higher Self/ I AM Presence what you need right now (or the group collective Highest Consciousness what we need to do). What do you need to help your soul evolve? What do you need to heal? What do you need to help you to further deepen and connect to why you are here as a soul? These are the questions we ask, they are always for the good of the Highest Consciousness.

We put together a unique program for your souls healing and evolution and to help your heart to heal. You go as deep as you wish to go there is never any forcing or pushing here. It is our intention to work from heart based energy. Then we send you the program and arrange dates for the retreat that suit you to come to São Miguel, Azores.

The remainder of the energy exchange (payment) is to be settled before or on the first morning of the retreat.

Price:

Prices drop according to the number of people attending and also if you wish to come for more than one day the price also decreases.

If you really wish to heal these retreats have the potential to really help you although please note that it is likely that there will be some emotional processing where your emotions will come up before or after the retreat.

 The retreats are held in a beautiful family run 4 star hotel Senora Da Rosa Nature and Tradition Hotel on the island of São Miguel. The retreat includes a delicious lunch of local Azorean food, breaks with snacks and local fruit and yummy bites! The hotel has a pool and beautiful gardens and a roof top terrace with a sea view. Really wonderful if you want to stay on the island for a while and soak in this beautiful place.

Please note these prices do not include accommodation.

Once booked if you have any questions, you can contact us by email or by phone.

Please note we also need to feel we can actually help you so occasionally there are people that we are guided not to run retreats with for one reason or another (Spirit always knows best) so if for any reason we turn you away it is not personal and we are just following the guidance of Spirit. It just may not be the right time. Thank you for your understanding.

How to get to the island of São Miguel:

• If you are flying from Lisbon, the airlines that fly here regularly include Sata Azores Airlines (from Portugal, Lisbon or Porto). TAP Airlines (who also fly from Dublin to Lisbon (as do Aer Lingus) and from Gatwick and Heathrow in the UK) also fly to the Azores. Easy Jet also fly from Edinburgh, Bristol or London Luton. We find TAP Portugal the best as you can check your bag through from Dublin through Lisbon to Ponta Delgada.

• You can also fly via Porto (Oporto) from the UK and Ireland then on to the Azores.

• From the USA or Canada: Sata Azores Airlines operate direct flights from Boston and Toronto to São Miguel.

  Please note: We recommend that you do not book flights too close together as occasionally airlines can change their schedules. We cannot guarantee any of your flight bookings and these are done independently by you.

  It is our honour to serve you and help you the best way we can. If you have any questions please contact us and we will do our best to answer them. Thank you.
