Retreat Testimonials
Martin and Irena I have no words to explain how I feel from this weekend. I had the deepest sessions and biggest shifts I’ve ever had in my life. I have the deepest love and respect for you both and for what you have put together, especially the material you have designed around how we operate in life and how to change that. My expectations have been far exceeded - outstanding value for money. Thank you! D.H., Builder, Maroubra, NSW.
With the knowledge and experience Martin and Irena bring to this vast body of work, the individual unique needs of everyone’s issues are met with 100% clarity. The creativity and genius used to work with every individual in the group setting is truly mind-blowing. Most of all, love is what prevails in each moment, at every stage of the work. I loved the male/female polarity most of all! S.S., Chef, Bondi, NSW.
Amazing! Incredible value for money. Loved the family constellation. Excellent facilitators. Thank you Martin and Irena. L.T., Retired Business Owner, Northmead, NSW
All I can say is that you are both so amazing, no amount of money can pay for the love & effort you put into your work - it really comes from the heart. You empowered all of us & that I hope will make us better human beings. L.T., Retired Business Owner, Northmead, NSW.
I am grateful for the work I did this weekend and the breakthroughs I had. Very challenging for me and time to integrate what I have discovered about myself. I recommend this work highly if you want to find your own inner peace. Thank you Martin and Irena for leading the retreat, the assistants Jude, Lisa and Leo and the other participants for travelling the journey with me. P.F., Teacher / Manager in Education, Kensington, NSW.
As a beginner it was a manageable course. Once I got into it I found my rhythm and each day brought new results. The information alone is worth a rave. As a man going through divorce, having lost so much, most of all myself, The Big Shift definitely helped me find inner healing to many areas, most of all to my masculinity and sexuality. I can honestly say I’ve got my mojo back. Look out world. I’m empowered to live life to the fullest! B.G., Entrepreneur, Wollongong, NSW.
I felt a lot of resistance coming to this retreat but I am so glad I did. The Big Shift has been a real journey. I got the best support, guidance, understanding and love from Martin and Irena. I experienced some life changing openings, insights and inputs that will affect my life personally but also professionally, in my later work as a psychologist.

Well explained with loving attention to detail. Thank you very much. I’m so glad for this course and the amazing support I received. P.L., Property Manager, Ourimbah, NSW.
Great event, massive learning experience, fun, laughter, caring and expert facilitators. This event is amazing. I leave understanding myself better and clearer than ever in my direction. B.P., Business Analyst, Turramurra, NSW
Illuminating and risky! I threw myself in and periodically got exhausted then liberated as we ploughed through family of origin stuff and current life experiences. I hoped to explore my body, my mind and its mysteries, and we did that ten times over. I feel refreshed and open, ready for anything! M.K., Business Owner, Mullumbimby, NSW
Amazing weekend of transformation. It really was!!! Thankyou for the creation of an incredible opportunity to move so much "stuff", and to discover the layers that have been hiding in dark corners. Irena Opacak and Martin Wilks - you hold it all so well and I can see how you stay so present with everyone by allowing everything to flow through you. It was beautiful to be in the presence of such presence. Big shout out to Lisa and Leo - their gentleness and fierceness combine to create a very safe container for healing. I truly thankyou for the creation of this weekend.
If you are looking for a way to move stuck energy in your body this is the course.

I'm not big on testimonials but feel compelled to share my experience. So this is for those that are serious about living in a state of LOVE and JOY permanently. I saw 12 people (inclusive of myself) go through the mental, emotional, physical and most profound: energetic processes, enabling transformation to take place. I am in awe of the love, support and expertise that created this space to allow each person with their own unique 'story' to process what they needed to in order to heal. Irena and Martin both do individual work which is extremely powerful, using cathartic breathwork, bio energetics and intuition. If you are reading this, believe that it IS pure coincidence - a mathematical term meaning to 'fit together perfectly', not accidentally.
If you are called to look at yourself and what you are creating in your life, GET ON BOARD. The retreat centre offered up lush accommodation, lovingly made food, which definitely hit the spot. Thank you to EACH person present making my healing process possible. And a massive 'high five' to myself, as participating was a true act of self love in motion.

To anyone who’s struggled to make any lasting changes through counseling try these workshops! In a safe environment you’ll tap into some deep emotional states stored in the body and cleanse yourself of triggers that are negatively affecting your life.

Best and only process that has ever led to healing.
I felt Martin and Irena bring enormous emotional intelligence, are deeply skilled in breathwork and core energetics work. I felt held, supported and transformed by their work. Thankyou !
