When social gets serious.

And the venue? It’s seriously stunning, with all the little luxuries that make a retreat, something truly worthy of a very, very long exhale!
- It's time to get seriously social.

What to Bring
On booking your Seriously Social Long Exhale retreat, we will send you a list of what to bring.
You may be asked to bring your swimmers, a towel, a hat and water bottle.
Please wear cool, loose clothing – anything you feel comfortable in.
We provide everything else – yoga mats, bolsters, blocks, straps, blankets & eye pillows. (BYO mat if you are attached to it).
Nourishment
The simple ritual of sharing food invites warmth, trust and conversation, making it one of the most effortless ways to form meaningful connections.
Our menus are vegetarian (and often vegan), freshly prepared by qualified Ayurvedic Chef Bryony Morgan using home-grown herbs, seasonal produce and Australian native ingredients.
Every dish is intentional, aligned with the seasons, digestive wellness, and the way food impacts mood and energy in midlife. Vegan, wholefood and allergy-friendly options are always available.
Please advise at booking of any dietary requirements.
Please note, our retreats are drug & alcohol free.

We choose venues that feel like a genuine escape – easy to get to, beautiful to be in, and a world away from the everyday.
The Seriously Social Long Exhale is held at a stunning private property 15 minutes from Murwillumbah. Think gentle breezes, shimmering valley views, a sparkling Naked system copper/silver ionised pool, an ozone sanitised spa and Clearlight sauna. There is even a Revel ice bath for the more adventurous. And then there is the natural light-filled studio, meditation garden and mountain trails. It feels a long way from ordinary life. Because it is.
If you have a venue and would like to host a Meet Move Eat retreat, please get in touch!
Movement
Our sessions are designed for bodies that have been busy for a few decades, they are accessible, and genuinely kind to joints that have earned a little extra care.
Expect nurturing practices suitable for all levels, especially those returning to movement after time away. Chair yoga is as good as floor yoga for bringing energy to tight or tense muscles.
Meditations are simple and grounding, offering a gentle way to reconnect with your breath, your inner calm and your body with kindness. And the head massage sends everyone into the next dimension!
No matter where you are in your movement journey, it’s about your body awareness and moving within your limits. We provide options to move and dance; you choose how far.
Other Activities
Depending on the retreat, your day might also include:
- Creative journaling
- Art workshops
- Massage
- Ayurvedic food wisdom
- Pool, river or ocean dips
- Nature walks
- Free dance
- Breathwork
- Sharing circles
- Laughter workshops
Building a Community
After each retreat, we invite participants to remain connected through an optional WhatsApp group, a shared space for the community to organically reconnect, suggest walks or active outings, and gather socially in ways that feel natural and supportive.
For those who prefer a quieter connection, our bi-monthly newsletter offers gentle touchpoints, shared stories, tips to stay grounded and motivated to keep moving as well as upcoming retreats and opportunities to continue nurturing wellbeing and belonging.
