3 Night Couples Retreat | with Belinda Anderson.

More and more couples are seeking dedicated time to deepen their connection, heal, and grow together. This retreat offers you and your partner — whether in a heterosexual or same-sex relationship — an opportunity to step away from the distractions of everyday life and focus on what truly matters: your relationship.
A healthy relationship starts with you. When you do the inner work, break free from old patterns, and learn to communicate with honesty and openness, it transforms not just you, but the bond you share with your partner.
What you’ll experience
Deep self-awareness—understand your own triggers, wounds & patterns.
Real communication—learn how to express yourselves and manage conflict in a healthy way.
Emotional connection—move beyond surface-level conversations.
Healing & growth—break cycles that no longer serve your relationship.
Passion & intimacy—reignite the spark & feel truly seen by your partner.
This isn’t about creating the perfect relationship—because that doesn’t exist. It’s about showing up for yourself and your partner in a way that feels real, connected, and fulfilling.
If you’re looking for perfect, this retreat isn’t for you.
If you’re looking for real, this retreat is for you.
We welcome couples who are ready to drop their armour, be vulnerable, do the work, and build a deeper, more connected relationship.
Who is this retreat for?
It is for couples who are willing to attend with an open mind and heart. Couples who are prepared to let their armour down and go “all in”. Couples who are committed to diving deep into their inner self for the purpose of self-exploration, self-accountability, healing, and transformation. Couples who want to learn, grow together and as individuals. Couples who want to understand one another better, improve their communication and ignite the passion and intimacy in their relationship.
This retreat is not about creating “perfect couples”, the “perfect relationship”, or a “perfect person” as there is no such thing; it is about understanding yourself and your partner better to enhance the connection you have with yourself, and with them.
You cannot build a deep connection with someone who is disconnected from themselves.
Relationships are our greatest spiritual assignments; they magnify whatever it is that’s going on within. They are a mirror to show us things about ourselves and it’s up to us to see what the mirror is reflecting.
The truth about relationships is that you and your partner need to be prepared to ride the waves together, do the work individually, and as a couple, love each other, and choose each other.
If you want perfect, this retreat is not for you.
If you want real, this retreat is for you.
This retreat welcomes couples who are prepared to get vulnerable, have positive intentions and a willingness to build a healthy relationship.

Where to begin… as a 37 year old business owner with 3 young kids, life was pretty hectic! At least I thought it was anyway… that was before I went on Belinda’s “couples” retreat.
Calling it a couples retreat might make it seem as if you should only go if your relationship is in strife, but it was far from that.
As pointed out from the moment we got there, we all have our own issues going on and if we sort ourselves out then it goes without saying your relationship will strengthen too! Which has definitely been the case with myself and Ashlee.
Not only has our relationship grown (we’ve been together for nearly 20 years) but also my relationship with my kids, my family, my friends, my employees… pretty much anyone I come in to contact with these days!
Before I went on the retreat my mind was constantly in fast forward and I was living my life in some future version in my head which almost never eventuated the way I was picturing it. Belinda stated that there was going to be downtime throughout the retreat (my worst nightmare, I always had to be doing something).
I never realised how much I needed this and how much it has changed my life. I had zero expectations on any of the activities that we partook in, but I committed myself to doing them at 100%. I can’t describe exactly what happened during the sound healing session, but it flicked a switch within me that has completely cleared my mind of overthinking and slowed everything down for me which has been life changing!
I was contemplating as to whether Ashlee and I should go along to this upcoming retreat as well but I don’t want to take up a spot that might benefit someone else like it has for me!
No doubt we will cross paths with Belinda and Darren again sometime soon!

Mark’s wife Ashlee said: I am so proud of how far he has come and I can honestly say it all started at your retreat Belinda. We are in the best place we have ever been in our 20 year relationship. And I’m so excited for what’s to come because we are still growing and working on ourselves daily. Thank you will never be enough.
