For those feeling stagnant, disconnected or trapped, retreat facilitator Di Atherton offers
half day, 1 day and stay-over retreats at Breath Space. Taking time out, stepping away from
the normal routines of life in order to have space to think, plan, dream or even just rest. But
“doing nothing” is sometimes a scary or daunting experience and it’s easy to become
distracted and lose focus. Di holds the space and helps to set the intention for the retreat.
She offers guidance, support and nourishment for the soul. A Breath Space retreat has no
rigid agenda, it’s guided by the needs of the retreatant.

My passion and greatest joy are to empower people to become active participants in their lives, as opposed to passive bystanders. I thrive in helping people become the best versions of themselves, through reconnecting them to their own inner power and Soul voice.
​​
We all have the power within us to create our own lives. When we understand the basic principles of how life operates, and we begin to work with it instead of against it – going with the flow instead of fighting it – and we start to listen to our own Soul voice, the magic starts to happen.
​​
Life today often makes us feel overwhelmed and disempowered. In the past couple of years the challenges have become ever greater! But life was never meant to be a struggle! My passion is to facilitate people reconnecting with their inner power through a variety of techniques, all of which are taught at workshops, courses and retreats as well as through readings, personal guidance, writing and speaking.
​
We shouldn’t always be looking for some future happiness. We shouldn’t be living in the “if only’s” and the “what if’s”. Life is meant to be lived – now, in this moment and from the heart! To do this, we only need to do two things – start being consciously aware of our thoughts and the choices we make; and begin to listen to our own unique Soul voice.
One Day Grief Immersion
A Grief Immersion at Breath Space allows time for reflection and introspection using a variety of tools and practices, incorporating a sound journey and ritual. Spend time in nature and leave with a clearer understanding of how loss shows up, how to work through it and how to implement self-care when grief threatens to overwhelm.
Begin to see that there is, indeed, life after loss. This is a day to simply be with grief, however grief shows up. Grief may not necessarily be the loss of a loved one. It could be the end of a relationship, a dream, loss of way of life. There are many levels and types of grief, each as unique as the person experiencing it.
​
Walking The Path of Grief Immersion is a gentle process that meets a person where they are in their journey of loss.
