TESTIMONIALS
This was my first retreat, and the experience was just beautiful. I respect myself and talk much kinder to myself. This is from the education, tools and safe space that Alyce created for us all. The group of ladies that were there were so special and caring in their own ways. Absolute zero judgement from anyone. If I can suggest one thing is to attend one of Discover A New Paths Retreats and Alyce’s cacao ceremonies. They are life changing.

The total experience of bring with like minded women sharing stories, learning new things. This is the second time I have been on the Reconnect to Nature Retreat in the Yorke Peninsula and both retreats have given me the confidence to move forward in my journey. I would recommend this to anyone who is needing time away from day-to-day life. This experience is something you will always grow and look back on.

I picked up my passport today. I literally walked out of the office smiling from ear to ear. My first passport. My first overseas trip. This year of many firsts for me and I’m so excited! Discover A New Path Retreats has allowed me to tick off so many bucket list experiences, from travelling overseas for the first time, going on night walks in Cape Tribulation and my first-time snorkelling in the Great Barrier Reef. These retreats help me face my fears.

I was lucky enough to meet Alyce at a retreat last year in the Margaret River. I was attracted to her energy, she was so warm and welcoming. When I realised Alyce held her own retreats in my home state SA, I couldn’t book quick enough. I love Alyce’s gentle approach with her healings and ways to truly hold space. There are no expectations or judgement. I felt so comfortable being in such a small and intimate group it didn’t take long to get to know everyone and feel safe to open up. I left the retreat feeling relieved and refreshed. I had new tools I could use every day to help me when triggers came up to the surface.

I have been on a couple of retreats with Discover a New Path, and I have always enjoyed my experience however the location of Klung Kung Bali and the beautiful Balinese community added to a sublime experience which words cannot describe. The level of spirituality, both the light and dark, the polarity, is prevalent in Bali and allows us to go deeply within to acknowledge our darkness as well as our light. Knowing that one cannot exist without the other. My intent was to go deep within myself to accept who I truly am, the polarity. I was able to explore so much more within myself and finally accept my spiritual and personal growth. The guidance of Alyce, the space that she holds for us collectively and individually and the vulnerability that she shares make DANP retreats unique from any other hence why I truly recommend this experience.

The Reconnect to Nature Retreat at Point Turton was amazing. It was the pause I needed in my crazy busy life, and it was a welcomed interruption. I learned so much about myself and the things that I have held onto or even the “rules” I have lived by which has not been serving me. Being surrounded by nature and amazing women really supported me to let go. Alyce organises the retreat in such a peaceful way and her guidance through the cacao ceremonies was great. The hospitality and food were amazing. I felt like I had been away for longer than 4 days. You feel very safe with Alyce. Thank you so much.

This was my second retreat with Alyce and after I attended her retreat in South Australia last year, When she announced that she would be starting up her Bali retreats again, didn't hesitate to sign up for her upcoming Bali Retreat for 2023. This was my first' time to Bali and it didn't disappoint. The Bella Kita resort is set amongst the forest and as soon as you arrive are taken aback by the amazing resort and surrounding. There is an instant sense of peace and relaxation. You can leave your other world behind and immerse yourself amongst the beautiful surroundings and set the scene perfectly for the next 7 days.

It was one of the best self-care decisions I have ever made, and I will still carry the feeling and experience with me long after I have returned, it’s been a trans-formative experience for me. and truly can’t be described, it needs to be felt and experienced. I’m looking forward to attending future Discover a New Path retreats as I always walk away discovering more about myself and making wonderful connections.

There were so many highlights on the Bali retreat, some carefully planned while others totally unexpected. During our time here, we were gifted the opportunity to spend Nyepi day (Bali New Year) at a local village and to be part of the celebrations was a highlight for me. We were made to feel so welcome with the local villagers and were grateful for such an amazing experience. Other highlights included daily Sunrise Yoga amongst the treetops, Sound Bowl Healing Meditation, flower ceremony offerings, Water Purification ceremony, swimming at a local Waterfall, Through the retreat we had moments where we shared time together but there was a lot of free time to spend time to swim, rest, read, journal and relax. It was during one of those moments, I connected with the spiritual nature of the forest and all it had to share with me. It had many gifts and wisdom to share. All I can say is If you want an opportunity to discover your own inner nature and connect with like-minded people amongst the treetops, then this retreat is for you.

I learnt that I'm ok on my own and that self-love is a necessity. I'm too hard on myself at times. This retreat gave me tools that I can continue to use and help myself with to improve myself and relationships with others.

I came in lifeless, full of anxiety and being an international student so alone and sad. I learnt so much on this retreat. I’ve already started spreading the word on how these retreats can change your life for the better. I loved how Alyce shared her knowledge and I was able to let go of the suffering that was inside me. We explored places and had the best food ever! Thankyou Niko, for your bomb chutneys. It’s safe and no one judges. I am coming to many more retreats with Alyce. I have a lot of work to do but I got the basics to help me which I did this morning and I’ve changed for the better. Now I spread love, hugs, and smiles. My eyes shine brighter. I will never forget this trip; it was the best while making life-long friends.
