Allow your nervous system to relax while being held by mamma ocean and guided by experienced, heart-centred, and uplifting facilitators. This is a once-in-a-lifetime, truly magical opportunity. Ancient stories of mermaids exist in many cultures around the world, and her essence invites us to dive in and trust.

Testimonials

info

I built so much more confidence and feel proud of being a mermaid, and my foxy self. And the sisterhood element. The journey with Anua and other sisters helped me to trust women & I learned so much about my femininity. Voice healing was another key element I received from the last mermaid reatreat.

Tanya, Australia

Anua’a space holding is intimate, playful and grounded in truth. She pulls through deep wisdom while giving space for collaborative explorations and insights to emerge. I’m always left feeling energized, invigorated and more aligned to my truth. Anua is a magical mermaid medicine woman with a heart of gold!

Leah, USA

Thanks so much to Anua for holding this session for our sisters to connect from all over the world! Anua led us through the magical importance of water & the power it holds astrologically, spiritually, physically. It was super meaningful for me to connect & share experiences with all the wise women Anua brought together in safe space during a healing time in my life. It's an experience I will always hold dear to my heart & soul.
