What Awaits You

Sacred space — a tranquil natural environment for deep reflection, healing, and connection.

Nourishing food — a vegetarian menu designed to support your body and spirit, allowing you to feel grounded and restored.

Minimal activities, maximum connection — shared ritual, sound healing, energy work, ceremony, yoga, and circle work, or simply rest and connect with like souls.

Co-creation — being present with other like-minded and like-hearted women creates a tapestry of wisdom and healing that enriches us all.


Together we can make magic. In the melding of our energies we ignite transformation – not just for ourselves, but for the collective. This is not just a retreat; it is a harmonic convergence, a living embodiment of the spiral of healing and awakening.  


The essence of our gathering is a sacred communion where the divine presence flows through our shared intention, creating a space of deep connection, grace, and healing.  


The retreat will be led by Brisbane-based Rebecca Harrison supported by Canberra-based Liz Cotterell and Clare O'Dwyer.      

  • Rebecca is trained in trauma-informed breathwork, meditation, Vedic psychology and Neuroencoding and works with the Akashic Records, energy healing, voice, vibration and other intuitive practices.
  • Liz offers multi-dimensional energy sessions and sound journeys, and organises and runs retreats.
  • Clare is a yoga teacher who specialises in slow-flow and Hatha-based yoga and is also qualified in trauma-aware, Yin and restorative yoga.

Sample programme

Thursday — guests arrive at the retreat venue from 2pm. Settle in ahead of a group mandala and cake-making session, dinner, and an evening cacao ceremony and fire circle to set our intentions for the retreat.


Friday — morning yoga, a Fire Horse meditation and Akashic Records activation, transformational breathwork and a group Dharma talk, evening Yoga Nidra and fire.


Saturday — morning yoga, a meditation, afternoon free time to rest and connect, a sound journey, and ecstatic dance and fire in the evening.


Sunday — slow flow yoga, closing circle, guests depart by 2pm.


Everything on the programme is optional. Our invitation to you is to honour what you need in any given moment, whether that's full participation, quiet rest, or something in between.


The lovely Clare O’Dwyer will be offering yoga throughout the retreat, creating opportunities to move, stretch and reconnect with the body.


There is plenty of space in the programme for communing with nature, private reflection and integration. See a more detailed draft programme.

Rebecca Harrison

Elevated Transformation, Qld

Rebecca Harrison is deeply attuned to the conscious field, working with the Akashic Records, breathwork, energy healing, voice and vibration to help people reconnect with their own inner wisdom.


Trained in trauma-informed breathwork, meditation, Vedic psychology and Neuroencoding, she describes herself as a channel for light and love, with a deep connection to nature and the unseen intelligence around us.  


Rebecca experiences her body as an antenna, receiving and translating energy into images, feelings, words, sensations or a simple sense of knowing. Her approach is both spiritual and grounded, valuing discernment and personal choice, and honouring each person's experience as unique.

Accessibility and suitability

Murrah Dream Retreat has limited accessibility. The grounds include uneven surfaces and walking distances between facilities, and there are steps, limited wheelchair access, no wheelchair-accessible bathroom or shower, and limited accessible parking and step-free entry.  


The retreat programme also includes transformational breathwork, which can be physically and emotionally intense and may not be suitable for everyone, particularly people with certain health conditions.  


If you have any accessibility needs, health considerations or concerns about whether the venue or program will suit you, please get in touch before booking. I'll be happy to talk it through with you, discuss any support you might need, and help you work out whether the retreat is a good fit.

Beyond the retreat: 1:1 integration session

Each residential attendee is offered a 45–60 minute multi-dimensional energy work session with Liz, included in your retreat investment, to be taken within eight weeks of our gathering.


This is a gentle continuation of what we create together. The days and weeks after a retreat are often where the deeper integration happens – when you return to family, to clients, to ordinary life, carrying everything the retreat opened in you. A 1:1 session is a chance to be held again, to work with anything that has surfaced, and to integrate what you received.


Sessions are customised to each participant and offered in person in Canberra, by phone or by Zoom, whichever supports you best. Sessions are available from one week after the retreat closes through to mid-December 2026.


You are welcome to book your session as soon as your deposit is confirmed – many practitioners appreciate having it locked into their calendar before life takes over. We will send booking details with your retreat confirmation.  

Booking and payment

As the retreat is now less than a month away, payment is due in full at the time of booking.  


You're welcome to pay by bank transfer, which avoids the Humanitix fee - both options are fine, whichever suits you. If you'd prefer to pay by bank transfer please reach out to us for the account details.


We understand that choosing a retreat is a personal decision. If you'd like to learn more before booking, or simply have a chat to see whether this retreat feels like the right fit, please reach out. We are happy to answer your questions, share more about what to expect, and help you decide if it's the right fit for you.
