So special to celebrate Sara’s 23rd birthday on retreat on The Byron Bay Reconnection Retreat.
An Ayurvedic massage, bush walk, group medi, Ayurvedic dinner and birthday cake, Kirtan performance, birthday pressies, and an evening sauna and dip in the mineral pool had our birthday girl declaring “I don’t want this day to end!”
Such a joy to hear those words.
Sara had booked in for the retreat and then in the lead up, like all of us, stepping into this unknown had felt a little daunting. But she’s so glad she did. Daily Puja (gratitude) ceremonies, sunrises, early morning walks with like-minded people, group meditation, breath work, yoga asana (rounding), Vedic and Ayurvedic knowledge by the fire pits ~ “It’s the best thing I’ve ever done. Kate holds space like no other. It was powerful and life changing and I can’t wait to take it out into the world.”
It’s been a beautiful thing to watch Sara over the last 11 months of having Vedic meditation in her life. A business owner and gorgeous woman inside and out, an absolute joy and privilege to share this knowledge, and experience with her, and know that while I didn’t have it in my life at that age, there were a lot of tumultuous years still ahead of me before I’d get there, it’s so so special to know that she does.
Great students make great teachers, and I’m so full of gratitude for all of the beautiful souls that I get to share this path with.
“Kate, where do I begin…Thank-you, thank-you, thank-you. I’m so grateful for what you have brought into my life through meditation. You inspire me to be my authentic self so thank-you. Thank-you for the space you hold for me and all those around you, it’s truely magnificent. I’m feeling good about going back into the world with all this wisdom. So much love always, love Sara xx “
