The ultimate four-day retreat designed to bring you to a new level of love, joy and success in your life.

The Big Shift uses the techniques of breathwork, body psychotherapy, family constellations and masculine / feminine polarity, interwoven with an approach to responsibility that’s as exciting as it is transformative. Nothing feels as wonderful as watching your
love, life and power grow!

Architects of Joy’s Martin Wilks and Irena Lo Bue bring a combined 26 years of teaching, facilitating and life experience to this program and create a safe environment of masculine and feminine support to go deep, shift issues and even have some fun. Because we are all so different, The Big Shift is designed for an exclusively small group with a high ratio of support, allowing us to tailor techniques to each person.

For this retreat we've added an extra day on Polarity, 
allowing you to explore and understand the ways that we create, or don't create attraction in romantic relationships or in dating.

Our inner and outer realities are always being reflected back to us in our lives. Often, just trying to change or force external circumstances doesn't yield the results we're after. In this weekend retreat we take a deep look at your inner reality and how it's affecting your life and provide ample education, experiences and support to help shift it. Responsibility is powerful, for without it we lack the ability to create what we want.


WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM THE BIG SHIFT:

•    Clear emotional blocks, creating more love, joy and pleasure in your body

•    Be responsible for yourself in a totally new way - it's powerful

•    Create space in your system for more meaningful ways of being you

•    Shift hidden beliefs that are affecting your life around love, money, work

•    Discover your body's defensive style and how it affects your response to life

•    Learn how to build attraction and sexual polarity in your romantic life

•    Learn the secret of creating beautiful and lasting relationships

•    Be in your power and your identity - life just isn't satisfying otherwise

•    Deepen your capacity for intimacy, authenticity and connection

•    Stay in your centre and develop healthy boundaries

•    Explore any chronic health issues and their connection to emotion

•    Allow yourself to detox physically, release tension and relax in your body

The Big Shift  is located one hour north of Sydney in a beautiful bush setting with spa, swimming pool and plush accommodation situated 1 hour north of Sydney. Fully catered vegetarian cuisine is provided. The retreat is exclusively offered to a maximum of twelve people so jump in! We'll take wonderful care of you.

Testimonials

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.

Thankyou, thankyou, thank you. I’ve really enjoyed my sessions with you and gotten so much out of them but this weekend has been out of this world. I can’t even put it into words. I feel as though I have a purpose and am getting my power and femininity back. I can’t thank you enough. I can’t tell you how good it feels to get rid of my guilt around my mother and understand why I have shut myself off. You and Irena are responsible for helping me to start to open up my heart. I’ve never felt so alive. Thank you.

"What an amazing weekend of transformation. It really was!!! Thank you for the creation of an incredible opportunity to move so much "stuff" Irena Lo Bue 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. If you are looking for a way to move stuck energy in your body this is the course." – M. Gwilliam
