Couples’ Retreat: Heal, Grow & Thrive Together

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.

Fully Inclusive Package

  • Three nights’ accommodation in an ensuite room furnished with a 5-star eco bed, organic bedding and manchester and sustainable furnishings. Although modest in size, the rooms are conveniently located and have their own storage.
  • A 1-hour full body massage per person.
  • A 2-hour group healing hot/cold spa circuit – water therapy for detoxification and rejuvenation, including sauna, steam room, ozone hydrotherapy spa and cold magnesium plunge.
  • A healing 90-minute Yin Yoga class to take you on an inward journey, drop you out of your head and into your body. There will also be some white tantric yoga sprinkled in to help use the energy of the body to reach a higher state of consciousness.
  • A 2-hour sound healing session (also known as vibrational medicine) and woven in will be breathwork and wisdom around understanding how the masculine and feminine dynamics within ourselves can support our relationships.
  • Guided nature walk in the beautiful surroundings of Gymea.
  • Mindful movement sessions, breathwork, meditation, and a variety of workshops designed to increase awareness, shift perception, expand knowledge, tap into emotions, heal, feel, grow, and transform. There will be sessions around inner-child work, forgiveness, limiting beliefs and much more.
  • 100% organic vegan food that will flood your body with goodness and leave you feeling full of vitality. There is an abundance of food! Here’s an example of the meals: potato, eggplant and green bean curry and cauliflower dahl served on brown rice, followed by chocolate pudding with vanilla coconut yoghurt for dessert. And Indonesian-inspired ‘gado-gado’ with sesame tempeh, followed by sticky black rice pudding with coconut custard.
  • Assorted teas/dandelion/coffee available at all times.
  • Seasonal fruit bowl available at all times.
  • Fire ceremony: to release and let go of limiting beliefs and what no longer serves you.
  • Full use of the 20m long resort style magnesium swimming pool which enjoys incredible views of Mt Warning (Wollumbin) and the beautiful Bundjalung Hinterland.

Words from some men & women who have attended this retreat

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

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.

I have just returned from a couple’s retreat held by my wife Belinda Anderson. Belinda normally facilitates women’s wellness retreats but this time she held her first couples retreat and what an absolute success it was!

I didn’t join the retreat to help out, I joined the group to participate. I knew, or I thought I knew, what she did on these retreats, oh yeah you help women find themselves, look within etc etc but I was completely blown away and in awe of how smart, compassionate, honest and a true leader and facilitator she is!

The way she helps heal wounds, self doubt and guides you and  how she takes you to a level of peace, love and self worth is a true gift. I’ve seen it happen to all guests (men and women) and myself included. It was an amazing experience to be involved with and I am very grateful .

Thank you Bin for shining a light where it needed to be shined.

Darren

Belinda you provide a gift to women, and now men, and couples. A safe nurturing space for self reflection and personal growth through meditation, movement and sharing of wisdom.

It feels like you sprinkle us with magic dust; reminding us that we have the power to change, to heal, to grow and lead a happy life.

Both of us have taken away enormous hope and renewal for our relationship, with ourselves and each other. The future is ours to choose and you have gifted us with a pathway. Thank you for all that you do.

The ripple effect is real and I feel very blessed to have experienced this first couple’s retreat and feel the transformational change with everyone who attended. An emotional journey from challenges, reflections and healing, to calm and excitement for what’s next.

Thank you again!! Feeling blessed.

Julie

Belinda Anderson I just want to start off by saying thank you so much for a very inspiring retreat. My experience was nothing short of eye opening. I wasn’t sure what to expect and I wasn’t sure how I’d feel and I didn’t think I needed it, but I soon realised it was exactly what I needed! Leaving the retreat I had mixed emotions; feelings between sad and happy.

I had so many limiting beliefs, and the inner child work we did really brought out my emotions and helped me understand myself better. All this work has opened me up, helped me feel worthy and motivated to put the work in daily little by little to make the right changes.

Belinda you are such an amazing person and I will never forget this time with you, and no words could ever explain how truly inspiring you are. I’m still in awe by how much I’ve learnt in such a small time frame. Honestly, thank you so much.

Emanuel

Last week Mark and I attended the first-ever couple’s retreat run by Belinda.

I have found it hard to find the words to explain what we experienced. It was so much more than I could have ever imagined – we laughed, we cried, we ate insanely delicious vegan food and we attended workshops that Belinda and her team created to teach you things that you will carry with you for the rest of your life!

Mark and I connected on a whole new level, and I will never be able to thank Belinda enough for that and for helping me change my life.

I can’t explain how good it felt to put myself first after a lifetime of not thinking I was worthy enough of my own time. That’s all changed now and I can feel a shift in not only myself and Mark but also in our beautiful kids.

The ripple effect is happening before our eyes. We have friends and family who are now also making small changes in their lives, and that’s all it takes.

Belinda, you are a very special soul who has touched so many lives. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Ash

Belinda, It’s been a week since our couple’s retreat and I want to express how amazing and transformational your retreats truly are.

The places you help us go to reconnect with our true selves, honour who we truly are, uplevel, know our worth, reach our higher self and see our true potential is astounding.

You’re ability to read the room and hold space with grace and poise is intuitively spot on.

I call my March 2022 retreat with you my awakening. I have grown and up-levelled so much since then, continuing to integrate the learnings daily, and trust in myself enough to change my vision, release the shackles of feeling restrained and follow the feeling of being destined for something more. I found the spark of excitement, passion and drive in me.

I hoped the couple’s retreat would allow me to open my heart more, let my guard down, release control and bring my relationship to new heights. For me and for us. It delivered!

We’re missing being surrounded by the like-minded souls we shared this experience with. You’re not the same person leaving as you were when you walked in. And that is a beautiful elated feeling.

I have no hesitation in booking another retreat in the future with you to continue to grow.
