Held Together – A Couple’s Retreat for Rest & Connection
Kia ora neighbours 💛
I’d love to share something very close to my heart.
On Saturday 27th September, my friend Claudia and I are hosting a special retreat for couples at the beautiful Kohimarama Boat Club, right by the sea.
✨ This retreat is for every couple – whether you’ve just started dating, have been together for years, are engaged, or married. What matters most is your wish to spend meaningful time together.
The afternoon will be gentle, relaxing, and completely beginner-friendly. No experience is needed — just an open heart and a willingness to reconnect.
💑 What’s Included:
• A warm welcome with ceremonial cacao
• Gentle couple yoga with essential oils
• Simple connection practices (mindful, loving, and fun)
• Guided couple meditation
• A live sunset sound journey with violin & cello (an original symphony composed just for this retreat!)
• A nourishing shared dinner by the sea 🌅
This retreat is about slowing down, letting go of life’s busyness, and coming back to what really matters — the love you share. 💞
📍 Kohimarama Boat Club, 80 Tamaki Drive, Mission Bay, Auckland
🕑 2–8 PM | Early bird tickets available until 7th of September.
If this speaks to you, or if you know a couple who would love this experience, we’d be so grateful if you shared it with them.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
