You’re invited to join us on a beautiful Retreat in the heart of Byron Bay staying at our friends unique hotel, The Atlantic. This is going to be an intimate Retreat experience with Jac around expanding into our higher selves, our most creative and curious selves. We are going to explore philosophy and concepts and models to live an aligned life, as well as have ocean swims, have a curated yoga experience, do a beautiful hike, eat delicious food and of course meditate deeply. This Retreat isn’t about taking ourselves away from the world so much as it is about learning how to really integrate ourselves within it, to meet each day with intimacy and presence. This is going to be a beautifully heart opening, raw, immersive experiencel bare foot walks, oceanic dives, sweeping coastal walks and views, eating local, organic food cooked on fire with our hands and will involve writing, journaling, creative exploration.

TESTIMONIALS
“I could not imagine a more idyllic environment for a meditation retreat than Byron Bay and the Atlantic. The setting, the vibes, the energy there was calm, serene, creative, blissful and beautiful. The food was nourishing and grounding and absolutely delicious. That alone would’ve been enough for an amazing retreat!! Enter The Broad Place who are some of the most kind, loving and compassionate people I have ever met. They facilitated the most inspiring retreat. I have wanting to learn formal meditation for so long and they taught it in such a way that it was not the least bit intimidating, it just felt like coming home. I have never felt more grateful that this opportunity was placed in my path. The way everything was planned flowed effortlessly and felt so supportive. I learned more than I possibly could have imagined. If there is any part of you that feels called to this, don’t hesitate. The Broad Place and Jac especially are endlessly patient, responsive, available, warm and inspiring. No matter what, this retreat will exceed all of your expectations. Thank you all from the bottom of my grateful heart!!!!” – Zoe Howard
“The retreat strikes the perfect balance of learning and luxuriating, insight and exercise, reflection and beauty.“ – Maree Webster
“Jac has created something truly beautiful. Jac is so refreshingly honest and relatable. The Byron Retreat is something you need to experience. You leave feeling calm and focused ready to take on life’s challenges with little tools and nuggets of wisdom. It reminds you of our precious life to slow down take in the little moments. That no matter how bad a situation is there is something wonderful in the wings. The food is amazing (think Gourmet Traveller –totally Instagram meals!), nourishing and delicious, the Atlantic is like being in a beautiful home (that you never want to leave) and the other people who come on the retreat are just so lovely and supportive.” – Kelly Stoll
