2 - 5 February 2023: Bodhi Khaya Women's Retreat

"There is no force more powerful than a woman determined to RISE." - W.E.B Dubois

Join us on 2 - 5 February for an empowering all Women’s Retreat, in celebration of the rise of the divine feminine within. Allow yourself to be guided on a journey of transformation and embodiment of your feminine light while letting go of all that holds you back from rising into your fullest expression and becoming the co-creator of your life. All within the nourishing and supportive sanctuary of Bodhi Khaya.

Guided by facilitators Maree Mirkovic, Karen Christian and Olivia Moon, this all-women’s retreat is an invitation to reconnect to your true nature, revive your spirit, explore your inner landscape and connect more deeply with your heart.

We will gather in a circle, move, dance, breathe, play, create and reconnect with our being-ness through a variety of supportive modalities, take-home tools and practices. There will also be plenty of time to rest, relax, go for walks, swim in the dams and just BE.

Maree Mirkovic

Combining her deep love for sisterhood together with the sacred plant medicine of cacao, Maree holds safe, healing spaces for women to let go of fear and connect with their hearts, bodies, dreams, desires and each other in the most magical, loving way.

Maree teaches mindful, feel good, alignment based yoga. Known for her soothing voice, expect mantra, meditation and a smooth, seamless sequence of poses designed to open, steady and strengthen the heart, mind and body. Her classes are harmonious and mood-elevating and include rhythmical, flowy movement as well as long, juicy holds, perfectly put together to support students on their journey home to themselves.

Karen Christian

Karen is an intuitive Healing Dance Journey Facilitator. She felt the call to her passion, the first time she heard music and set foot on a dancefloor. Many years later, after years in the film, tv, banking and events industries (and a hip replacement!), she decided to actively follow her heart, and went to her first Secret Sunrise Retreat and found her path amongst the majestic mountains of the Drakensburg - and has literally not looked back!

Weaving various healing modalities and wellness practices to a personally curated playlist, bringing you an experiential journey, she holds space for the transmutation of stale energy, followed by calling in and integrating fresh new positive flow.

Karen is a blessed and deeply grateful woman, surrounded by a strong siSTARhood, that is continually feeding her skillset with learning and growing from the journeys we are all on. She loves to move, she loves music and believes the medicine we seek comes from within.

Olivia Moon

Olivia is a certified Holistic Wellness and Spiritual Life Coach, Yoga and Breathwork Teacher and Retreat Facilitator, as well as Bodhi Khaya's resident teacher. She's on a mission to help women align with their highest self, reconnect to their intuition, cultivate self-love and overcome self-sabotage for good so they can feel amazing and live in flow.

Olivia believes yoga is about finding the essential balance between yin and yang, sun and moon, masculine and feminine that so easily gets lost in our modern world. By finding balance on our mat, we are able to step into the world more whole, centered and present, and this is the gift that yoga gives us.

She is also certified in Hatha, Vinyasa flow, Yin yoga and Conscious Breathwork and incorporates all these styles in her teachings. Olivia believes that our breath is our connection to the universe, it is the bridge between the spiritual and physical. When we cross this bridge using the breath, we are able to access our true essence, waiting to be expressed.
