Take Me To Paradise

Hear what others have experienced...

 
 

I was so comfortable with the price of the retreat—it truly reflected the whole experience. Everything was top quality, from the luxury accommodation to the stunning location, delicious food, and beautifully designed program.

I absolutely loved the retreat. Each element played an important role in my healing, nourishment, and self-care. The visit to the waterfall was a highlight, and the cacao ceremony around the fire pit was incredibly special and unique. Every meal was delicious—I know I’ll be making them at home, and I’m sure my family will love them too!

The yoga was wonderful. Fiona is an amazing teacher—truly dedicated, inspiring, gentle, and full of love. Thank you, Fiona. I feel more content, energized, relaxed, and nourished. My body feels cleansed, and spiritually, I feel more aligned. I’ve started to connect with my inner wisdom, learning to trust and honor it.

Next time, I could definitely do with a longer retreat!”

— Ana

Two weeks ago, I had the most amazing experience. Over the years, I’ve had many types of massage—relaxation, remedial, Thai—all of which were great. But when I heard about Lomi Lomi, something about the way it was described really resonated with me.

What I experienced was beyond words. It was deeply transformative. I felt an incredible sense of freedom, emotional release, happiness, and a strong spiritual connection. I was so relaxed—more than I’ve ever felt before. That night, I had the best sleep, and the next day I woke up feeling calm, energized, happy, and truly positive.

Now, two weeks later, that positive energy and happy vibe are still with me. I’m so grateful.”

Fiona Heart

Aloha, I’m Fiona Heart.

I’m an ancient Hawaiian Lomi Lomi bodyworker—this divine, heartfelt practice has been the catalyst for opening my heart and guiding others toward their own healing journeys. Lomi Lomi is more than a massage; it is a sacred integration of body, mind, and heart. It reconnects us to the innate wisdom of our bodies and the compassion of our hearts, restoring harmony within ourselves, our communities, and the Earth.

This unique holistic experience supports healing on all levels—physical, mental, emotional, and energetic. As a wellness alchemist, I hold space for profound transformation.

My journey has also been rooted in yoga for over 20 years. Since becoming a Hatha Yoga teacher in 2015, I’ve been devoted to the philosophy and practices that nurture emotional, spiritual, and mental well-being. I’ve done the deep inner work to understand the principles of manifestation, and I live with the intention to inspire others to do the same—to create a life of self-love, conscious living, and deep nourishment.

I believe in treating the body as a sacred temple, nourishing every cell with mindful movement, soulful food, and conscious thought. Your mind and spirit thrive when they are supported in alignment with your truth.

I invite you to join me on a journey of transformation—into a life lived consciously, with love, intention, and trust in your inner guidance. Together, we can release the patterns and beliefs that no longer serve us and step into the pure essence of who we truly are.

Kat Finnerty

My name is Kat Finnerty. I’m a best-selling author, yoga, health and wellness instructor, nutritionist, speaker, MS advocate and mum of three. I’ve been lucky enough to work as a retreat facilitator/motivator for the Food Matters/Gaia Network, the largest transformational network in the world (2 million + followers). 

When I was 24 I began experiencing the devastating symptoms of multiple sclerosis. I was told I’d probably end up in a wheelchair by the time I was 40. But despite enduring years of debilitating attacks, I managed to reverse nearly all my symptoms and go into long-term remission.

I attribute a large part of this journey to a radical change in mindset. I call it a counter-intuitive approach to happiness. Instead of constantly pursuing my wants and desires, I focused on mastering my disasters. This allowed me to short-cut my way back to happiness and break out of my cycle of suffering.

And the good news is, you can do this too, given the right guidance & tools.

My retreats are where the magic happens - they offer you a chance to break free of the daily grind and learn the life hacks to reset your brain to bring more peace, joy and contentment into your life.

And it all starts with my 12 Principles to become a ‘Master of Disaster’. 

“Your past pain is your greatest strength waiting to be unlocked.” — Kat Finnerty
