Leaving the Retreat, I felt lighter.

Lighter in body and in mind. I had nervously carved a few days of space in my busy life to be a part of what has truly been a game changer in how I feel and think about myself.

The warm welcome by Andrea as each participant first stepped through the doors in the tranquil location, to the soft ‘ahhhh ha!’ moments provided by Donna’s nurturing and insightful delivery of the program combine to bring one back to centre in a safe and inspiring environment.

Kendall’s knowledge of nutrition (and delicious food!), the easy at home exercises, and attention to detail throughout show an unprecedented level of care and dedication to helping individuals find what they are looking for, to get back on track whatever the goal.

It's a place to put you first and hit that reset button, to take a step forward as you leave armed with a bucket load of practical and easily applied tools to return to who you want to be, that you that really is enough.

Since the retreat I am gently focused, kinder to myself, and excited about understanding more about my body and mind.

Thank you Donna, Andrea and Kendall for a truly enlightening experience.

Andrea, thank you so much for the Retreat.

I haven't done anything like that before and it was, for me, quite life-changing.

It was an absolute reinforcement of the 'good stuff' we know in our lives that we should be doing (better health and fitness, better relationships with whanau, live more simply and with purpose), but it also opened up quite a bit of the behind the scenes/back of the mind stuff that I wasn't aware I was carrying around with me- along with all my extra weight. So thank you.

Your team of Sonia, Mary-beth Janna and Sheryl were absolutely wonderful, and all connected with us in a personal and individual way. I don't have the words to express how truly special they all were and I thank you so much for putting such an amazing team together.

My cohort (the Grateful 8) all developed a close and genuine bond and have all remained in contact in the weeks that have followed retreat, leaning on each other when needed and keeping our team updated with any highlights. I look forward to this friendship standing the test of time.

Thanks again Andrea- I appreciate all you've done for me along this journey, and I wish you and your team all the very best for the future.

Ka nui te aroha ki a koe me to whanau. (love and best wishes to you and your family)

Hi Andrea,

Once again thank you to you and your amazing team for the retreat and all the follow-up links and information. Even though I had to leave the retreat early, I have found your team to be so supportive with follow-up messages, love, and support. I will be back to do another retreat to reinforce the learning as it is truly valuable and everyone should undertake this opportunity to find themselves and understand their new way of life.

I have already transferred some of my learning into my workplace and they have been extremely beneficial and helpful when interviewing as I was asked what my values were and could clearly articulate these with pride. Your facilities and location are second to none and you really can retreat from the world to focus on yourself with like-minded individuals. Your staff is a true asset to the business!

Thank you once again, LH

Hi Andrea 

Here I was thinking “How do I convey my sincerest thanks to all of you, especially understanding my own deficiencies & not reflect negatively on my lack of constraints?”

It made sense when David unravelled the machinations of my befuddled brain.

Nowadays, when confronted, I know the past baggage needs to be faced & dealt to.

I think that I have grown exponentially, especially revealing “me”.

Love the self care model & your brilliance.

Empowerment. 

My utmost gratitude always. JA

I’m still buzzing from the retreat.  You have an awesome team there and your passion shows throughout the days spent there with you all.

Thank you so much for sending these resources through Andrea, it is very, very helpful.  I hope past and future participants of the retreat got/get as much guidance and enjoyment from it as I did.

Many thanks, LF

Thank you Andrea it really was the best!!!!!! I have learnt so much from the retreat and the gains are a life time.

I appreciate the effort you all put into following up on patients, it is not seen enough from other practitioners. JL

Thank you to you Sonia, David, Sheryl, Raeleen and The Lovelies for the best 4 days. So wish I was there tonight to see your amazingness work itself again.

Feeling blessed, happy and loved by an amazing community.

Thank you big hugs and love, JM xx 

Hi Andrea,

I’ll say again, FOHL was truly life-changing. Thank you so so much for what you do for your patients.  I feel very privileged that I chose Tailor Clinics and get to experience all your care and expertise. RS xx

Yay! I woke up this morning and spent my workout looking forward to receiving this email. The retreat was life changing and I can't wait to consume all this again.

Give Wattle + Scooter some kisses for me. TB

Many thanks Andrea, the Retreat was certainly life changing in the best possible way. AS

Thank you Andrea.

You have done such an amazing job with the support you have given us and an awesome retreat.

I thoroughly enjoyed it & have been recommending it to people I know.

You are an amazing, caring women. S

It was one month ago today, that I was packing my bags and getting ready for the journey to Ohakune a little uncertain of what lay ahead for me... I guess the old saying ‘embrace uncertainty’ rings true... for me it certainly allowed me to re-evaluate the past and make new choices in light of what transpired over the next four days.... 

Thank-you and to the team for creating a comforting safety-net, for us to come together and share. While many factors influenced the success of the Retreat, the staffs’ passion,  professionalism, generosity of sharing personal experiences, and vulnerability allowed us to really resonate with their stories and help our weight loss journey move forward. 

The food was delicious, the weather amazing, great coffee ☕️, the venue superb, the walks enjoyable and refreshing and created a new found passion (exercise 🙃😃 who would have thought!).. new friendships made, and I came away committed to exploring new things, new ways of thinking and enjoying this WL adventure even more. 

These last few days I have re-read my journal notes, reflected on my ‘card goals’ and basked in the memories of four wonderful days at Ohakune. My temporary tattoo has just washed away😢 and so my new mantra after watching the film Pele .. Success is no accident: it is hard work and perseverance💚💙🤍

Thank you all for your gracious spirit and generous wisdom... I had so much fun and learnt so much. 

Enjoy your day and thanks so much for all you do for us.

Kind regards and much love. JG
