Definitely do it! Whether you are looking to have more embodied experiences yourself in a safe and held space, or looking to include embodiment in your normal scope of practice, this workshop will give you the tools!It’s an immersive experience of self in relation to nature, the body and relationships. Explorative and mind opening to other ways of working with psychological issues. A safe and contained space which is free of judgement

Witnessing other therapists’ challenges and ideas, witnessing the fine art of facilitation. personally – I am alone in my practice with mostly individuals and I gained confidence from being in a group of diverse people – in fact – the personal and the professional were very blended for me

It’s rare (and wonderful) to have the opportunity to just be a participant, and the number and variety of experiences meant that I felt like I got a lot of experience in a short space of time.

I had the opportunity to work through a wide range of experiential practices, to witness great facilitation of processes and to have some professional questions addressed

I was not sure what to expect, as this was my first exposure to this kind of training. The experience was the best training I had since starting my career. After all the years of doing therapy, I needed to reconnect with my body and with the medicine I need for healing so that I can show up in a different way for my clients.

Magical location! Great for families. A must if you’re looking to get away from it all!!!

Amazing experience if you are looking for something different + a real family feel from the hosts + stars for Africa.

What an amazing place! I thoroughly enjoyed staying at The Rest. I cannot wait to go back. If you want peace, quiet and solitude, this is the place for you. Walking in the mountains with not a soul in sight. It was pure adventure.

The Rest is a unique and incredible place. There is such a sense of freedom and safety and Paula was a phenomenal host. A wonderful place to get away from normal life and explore the true beauty of the Karoo. Highlights for us included climbing the mountain for sunrise after a snowfall and enjoying hearty meals made with grass fed beef grown right there on the farm. Don’t miss out on that, or a loaf of home made bread!

Fantastic. The Shepherd’s Cottage might be rustic but was well appointed and suited to my purposes, which was a quiet time to do some studies while exploring. There is no cell phone reception but there is a good working WiFi to stay in contact. There is good MTB riding experience or just go for a walk but remember no WiFi away from the cottage. I recommend at least a few days stay to properly appreciate the time there.

Awesome view and ambience. Clean and all you need for a break from the city hassel and bussel.

Rustic and beautiful. Stunning views. Exceptional hospitality. Freshly baked bread on arrival. We enjoyed our stay very much. Magnificent surroundings. Paula and her family are very warm and welcoming.
