Embrace the support of like-minded individuals and kindred spirits, allowing your spirit to flourish in a space free of judgment and filled with warmth.  Engage in daily meditation and mindfulness practices that quieten the mind and soothe and rejuvenate the soul.

Reflect on the Past, Embrace the Present 

At Heartland Meadows, we believe that our past experiences, including the challenges of the previous year, have shaped us and brought us to this present moment. During the retreat, we’ll explore and honour the lessons learned from the past year with gratitude and acceptance. By understanding where we have been, we gain the power to consciously manifest the future we desire.

Release Old Habits, Embrace New Ways 

It’s time to let go of the old habits that no longer serve you as you step into the new year. Our retreat offers a safe and supportive space to identify and release the habits of thought and action that hinder your progress.

Together, we will delve into transformative practices and techniques that harmonize our being, empowering us to move forward in positive directions. Experience the joy and fulfillment that comes from aligning with your true purpose.

 Discover Your Word for the Year 

Words have incredible power. During our retreat, we will guide you in finding a word for the year, a word that becomes your guiding light, shaping your decision-making and actions. This word acts as a compass, keeping you on track to create the life you desire to live. As you carry this word with you throughout 2026, you’ll find yourself aligning with its energy, unlocking new levels of growth and fulfillment.

Meet Your Host

Craig Harmer walks the path of a Kriya Yogi, Meditation and Pranayama Teacher, Vision Guidance Reader, and Divine Source Enhancement Healer, but above all, he sees himself as a companion for those seeking to remember their true essence.

His own awakening began in 2006 when meditation opened a doorway to stillness and inner transformation. Drawn by spirit to deepen this journey, Craig travelled to India in 2011, where the ancient practice of Pranayama Yoga expanded his breath, his awareness, and his ability to guide others into healing and balance.

Over the years, Craig has been blessed to weave together sacred practices – Divine Source Enhancement Healing and Vision Guidance readings – that open pathways for release, clarity, and spiritual renewal. With a gentle presence and an open heart, he creates spaces where others can reconnect to their soul, rediscover peace, and awaken to the light that has always lived within them.

Read what past guests have to say about Craig’s Retreats

I have recently attended the 3-night meditation and intuition retreat with Craig at Heartland Meadows at Chatsworth. I had never been to a retreat before, so I was somewhat nervous and dubious as to what I would gain from attending. The whole experience. Right from driving up the driveway to meeting Craig and our hosts Jenny and Dave was such a magical and fulfilling experience. Craig is a master at what he does. He is so exceptionally skilled and insightful. The breathing practices and meditation I’ve learnt from Craig have literally changed my life. At the retreat, the 80 acres you stay at are beautiful with green rolling hills and the accommodation was clean, comfortable and I felt completely at home and very well looked after. If you are looking to have time out from this frantic busy world, you want to slow down, take a breath and regain your peace and sanity…I highly recommend you do Craig’s retreats, classes or sessions. You are worth it! It will change your life. 💕Fleur

I just spent a week with Craig at Heartland Meadows and what an amazing week it was. Craig has a beautiful way of guiding, encouraging, and mastering the art of meditation. He has a very gentle approach in the way he shares his knowledge, and I’ve learnt so much in such a short time. Next up is Divine Source Enhancement, so watch this space. 💕Denise

I recently attended a retreat held at Heartland Meadows facilitated by Craig. Craig created a very sacred, safe and comfortable space for us to meditate, learn and transform. He taught us breathwork techniques that can be easily integrated into daily practice which have proven invaluable in shutting off an overactive mind. As well as facilitating a beautiful healing with oils, we were all encouraged and nurtured to connect with our hearts and intuition and with each other. Picked up some great information about food as well with some great recipes from Thomas and Imke for cleaner eating. Was a very enjoyable retreat and would highly recommend Craig as a retreat leader and also Heartland Meadows as a wonderful venue for self-discovery. 💕 Antoinette

As I left Craig’s recent retreat weekend I felt calm, centred & inspired. It was, without doubt, the greatest gift I have given myself, a true investment in Me. Heartland Meadows is the perfect setting ; Craig, Jenny & Dave are welcoming, the accommodation is comfortable, the food is hearty & cooked with love . The weekend delivered an idyllic break from day to day routines & habits. The structure allowed for free time to connect with others, sauna & swim or take quiet space & process. I learned meditation techniques to integrate into my new daily routines. I made friendships, laughed & cried, feeling seen & heard on so many levels. All of this is only possible within a sacred space, which Craig curated with skill & reverence. If you feel called to this retreat I urge you to attend. 💕Annette

So last Friday I did something that 12 months ago I never could have imagined myself doing. I headed off on a 3.5 hour solo road trip to Heartland Meadows for a Spiritual Retreat. The only words to describe my experience are absolutely life changing. From Friday evening to mid morning Monday I participated in workshops, meditations and breathing sessions and a fire ceremony. I have learned so much about myself and now know where my life is headed. I met some incredible souls, some of whom, I am now blessed to call friends. I laughed, I cried, I connected with my higher self and I found who I am. I am eternally grateful to Craig Harmer, Jenny and Dave, for helping to make all of this possible. You are incredibly beautiful souls. I will def be going back again to Heartland Meadows. It is a relaxing, serene and safe place to allow myself to be me. For the first time in as long as I can remember, I am truly happy. From here life is just going to get better and I am ready to soar. Love & Light.  💕 Vanessa

Heartland Meadows is THE place to go to find yourself again. I went there thinking my journey was going in one direction, only to be taken in a completely different one! Jenny and Dave are absolutely amazing! And Craig’s healing abilities are on another level! I was able to ease out of my ‘fight or flight’ that had me entangled in a life of tension and unease for over three years! And I didn’t even know I was in it! I was able to journey at my own pace, experience opportunities that could only be experienced in a place of pure trust, unconditional love, and complete self acceptance. And this was all possible because of the combination of how the retreat was run, the welcoming nature of its energies and the energies of the attendees, and the opportunities of the workshops and extra services available. The food was absolutely a main attraction too! It was like eating love with every bite! I could not fault anything! I have a greater sense of self, a toolbox of coping mechanisms and self observation techniques, and (most importantly) a sense of hope. I WANT to live now. I want to share in joy and experiences, and I want to connect. A vast difference to the person who made the 2 hour journey on day one. Thank you all for everything you have provided me. Amazing opportunity. Much love 💕 Amanda

After wanting to go to a retreat for a long time but holding off every time for different reasons, I know now why I made the decision to go to Heartland Meadows as my first retreat ever. From the moment of arriving until the moment of leaving it was just pure love. Jenny and Dave are running a wonderful retreat centre where you will feel welcome as if it is your own home, they are so kind and loving and both have great characters. They’ve invited Craig Harmer to run the retreat and he had an awesome programme for us with great content and guidance. The food they provide which is made with a smile in a warming calming environment with beautiful surroundings, everything just connected for me. I can’t recommend these guys and this place enough, I know I’ll be back.
Much love guys!🙏 💕Jereon

An uplifting experience, shared with an amazing group of women. Jenny and Dave I thank you for the beautiful food, the time and energy you both put into making your guests feel so welcome and sharing your piece of paradise with our group. Loved it 😊. This was my 4th retreat “A Heroes Journey” facilitated by the lovely Wendy House. If you’re thinking of attending one of these beautiful retreats you will not be disappointed. Much love xxx

💕 Kathy

I am grateful to have had a transforming experience at Heartland Meadows. I participated in an art therapy workshop titled ‘A Hero’s Journey’ and my outlook to the challenges I am facing has completely changed. I am finding my joy and creativity again. Jenny was an amazing, caring, wise and insightful host. The food was healthy and yummy and I’m sure the nourishment enhanced my wellness and contributed to the extra spring I have in my step. Thank-you Dave. While the facilities were not luxurious they were spotlessly clean and the property was serine. I am not looking for luxury when I go away like this. I’m looking for a humble space at an affordable price that provides the opportunity to connect with nature. I am also looking for a place that helps me to reconnect with my joy. Heartland Meadows delivered this and more. My husband wants me to go to Heartland more regularly. He feels like he has his wife back.

💕 Kerry

This is a tiny slice of heaven in sunny coast hinterland. The crew are incredible. Jenny and Dave the horses and the whole team make any time spent there just magical. I witnessed miracles during my time there and will be returning as soon as I can get my kids looked after again. Jenny in particular did all she could to help me when I was in a place of pain and exhaustion. I’m beyond grateful for my time there. Food. Environment. Pool. View. Workshops. All of it is wonderful. Thank you, Jenny. I’m so grateful.

💕 Niki

Amazing retreat. All the little things that make a difference like our names on our door when we arrive and special care with our likes and dislikes. Jenny’s energy and positivity along with her professionalism and caring nature as well as her team of workers, made the whole experience something to cherish. I will be going back.

💕 Julie

I went to find peace and found transformation. I could say so many things to convince you to go, but in reality, you have to feel inside if you’re open to experiencing it. For me, it was utterly an important step to change my ways of functioning in life and for sure I’ll be coming back. Thanks, Jenny and Dave for being so caring and lovable human beings.

Are you ready to start your healing journey?
From autoimmunity to anxiety, fatigue to inflammation, healing your gut can be the first step in healing everything.

Join us for an amazing weekend of healing, learning, and reconnection—where science meets soul, and your body is supported to truly repair. Through expert guidance, nourishing food, emotional insight, and evidence-based protocols, you’ll discover the tools to restore your gut and reclaim your vitality—naturally, gently, and deeply.

Heal your Gut: Reignite your Vitality

Your gut is more than just a digestive system—it’s a second brain, a powerful centre of immunity, intuition, and emotional wisdom. When the gut is inflamed or out of balance, it can ripple through every part of your life, leaving you feeling exhausted, foggy, anxious, or unwell without knowing why. And the gut is known to be a significant factor in the diagnosis of many illnesses including autoimmune diseases.

At Heartland Meadows, we believe that healing the gut is about more than just what you eat—it’s about how you live, how you feel, and how you honour your body’s wisdom. That’s why this retreat weaves together functional nutrition, emotional wellness, and holistic healing in a safe, nurturing space surrounded by nature.

This weekend is a chance to pause and listen to your body with kindness. Whether you’re facing chronic digestive issues, autoimmune conditions, fatigue, or just an intuitive knowing that something is off—we invite you to come home to yourself. To slow down. To be nourished. To learn powerful tools for gut restoration and emotional balance that you can carry into everyday life.

This retreat is not just informed by research – it’s lived, embodied, and heart-earned. Both Jenny and Dave, your hosts at Heartland Meadows, have walked their own healing journeys using the very tools and protocols they now share with others. Jenny’s path through PTSD, ulcerative colitis, and rheumatoid arthritis – and Dave’s experience with multiple sclerosis—have given them firsthand insight into the complexity of chronic illness, as well as the profound hope that comes with true, sustainable healing. While they don’t make bold claims or offer quick fixes, what they do offer is wisdom grounded in personal transformation, clinical knowledge, and deep compassion.

Led by Jenny – qualified Functional Nutrition Coach – you’ll be gently guided through evidence-based knowledge, experiential learning, and deeply supportive practices to help you understand the root causes of imbalance and begin to restore your inner ecosystem.

You don’t need to have it all figured out. You just need to be ready to begin.

A healthy gut is the foundation of vibrant physical, emotional, and mental well-being. Whether you’re struggling with digestive discomfort, autoimmune issues, food intolerances, or just want to understand your body on a deeper level, this intimate weekend retreat is for you.

Join us for this immersive experience focused on gut health restoration and microbiome support. This is not just a weekend away; it’s a deep reset for your entire being.

Join us on this Journey

Join us on this transformative journey where each step is a conscious choice towards wellness, and each moment is an opportunity to reconnect with your truest self. This retreat invites you to take a leap towards a more vibrant, balanced, and meaningful life. Embrace the invitation and let this weekend become a gateway to your holistic well-being.

Just a footnote, I have Parkinson’s Disease and never once felt uneasy or anxious Jenny and Dave were all over it and made sure I was always cared for and safe.  Highly so highly recommend them for your next retreat.” – Robert

“I love going here!! Jenny is amazing. I can’t thank her enough for all of her kindness, love and understanding. I’ve learnt so much and I will be forever grateful. Dave is fantastic as well and makes the best food! Highly recommend 💕” Sam

“Heartland Retreat is a beautiful sacred space that rejuvenates the mind, body and soul. Hosts Jenny and Dave give nurturing care and support and provide for whatever you need. Their openness and love allow everyone to feel relaxed, safe and at peace. The native environment is interspersed with many spiritual statues, chimes, words of wisdom and vibrant colour. The cabins are neat, tidy and very comfortable. The infra red sauna is very therapeutic with intense heat and one is fully invigorated with a dip in the magnesium pool. The whole property is a wonderful area for one to thoroughly immerse into nature and feel the magic of the universe. I highly recommend Heartland Meadows and various workshops offered by Jenny and Dave. I am truly very grateful for the time spent at this retreat and have taken away so much relaxation, shared knowledge and wisdom. Thankyou, Thankyou, Thankyou. 💕– Chris

“Do yourself the favour and visit this piece of paradise! This affordable retreat was the most amazing week that really kicked off 2023. Jenny & Dave are awesome hosts who look after absolutely everything you could possibly need. Healthy, nutritious and scrumptious food (all dietary types catered for) informative and fun workshops and lots of time for relaxation of your choosing. Make new friends, get amongst nature with bush walks, mini ponies and fresh air. Unplugging from the busy day to day life, creating and belonging to a community and learning skills that will carry you through life’s struggles. Rejuvenate your mind and body – you deserve it! Can’t wait to return again soon.“ – Helen

A Transformative Weekend of Creation, Connection and Sacred Ceremony.

Join us for a profound journey of self-discovery and creation at Heartland Meadows from 27-30 March.  Birthing Your Sacred Medicine Drum is an immersive, long weekend retreat where you’ll be guided in crafting your own Shamanic Medicine Drum – a deeply personal and sacred tool for healing and connection. In a circle of like-minded souls, under the guidance of Michelle, a skilled Shamanic Practitioner and Drum Doula, you will enter a space of reflection, reverence, and transformation, connecting with the ancient energies of Spirit, Mother Earth, and your own inner wisdom.

The Drum as a Bridge Between Worlds
From the dawn of humanity, the drum has been a universal tool of communication, ritual, and healing across diverse cultures. It carries the power to connect us with Spirit Medicine, grounding us in our body while opening pathways to the spiritual realm. Crafting your drum is a deeply moving experience that reflects your journey through life – from your own birth to this present moment. Each drum holds a unique story, woven with the spirit of its maker. This retreat is a chance to birth not only a physical drum but also a renewed connection to yourself, to Spirit, and to the lineage of ancestors who walked before you.

An Invitation to Craft, Heal, and Transform
This is more than a retreat; it is a sacred pilgrimage inward. Over the course of the weekend, you will participate in rituals, teachings, and creative processes that honour each step of the drum-making journey. Beginning Friday afternoon and concluding Monday morning, this experience includes not only the birthing of your drum but also the creation of your drum beater, instruction on the Medicine Wheel, and the gift of guided journeys that bring insights and healing.

What to Expect on This Sacred Journey:

• Drum Birthing Ceremony: With reverence for the materials and the spirit they embody, you will birth your own drum under Michelle’s expert guidance. This ceremony honours the animal spirit of the hide and the wood of the frame, acknowledging the sacred gifts they offer.
• Creating Your Drum Beater: Just as the drum itself is a personal journey, so too is the crafting of your drum beater. This essential tool, shaped by your hands, carries your intentions and completes your sacred instrument.
• Medicine Wheel Teachings: Learn to navigate the Medicine Wheel, an ancient tool for understanding the cycles of life, healing, and self-discovery. The wisdom of the Medicine Wheel will help you deepen your connection to the natural world, guiding you in your spiritual growth.
• Guided Inner Journeys and Meditation: Through guided visualisations and meditation, you’ll explore the depths of your soul, gaining valuable insights into your path, your purpose, and your relationship with Spirit.
• Sacred Movement and Ritual: Participate in grounding practices and movement that connect you with the earth and harmonise your energy with the rhythm of the drum. Rituals will help you set intentions, release old energies, and align with your true self.

Held in a Sacred Container of Support and Growth
In this safe and sacred space, you’ll be supported on a journey of personal reflection and healing. Each step of the drum-making process mirrors the cycles and stages of life, offering a unique opportunity to reflect on your own birth, the births of your children (if you have any), and the stories of your ancestors. This retreat provides a container where you can process memories, honour life’s milestones, and connect with Spirit in a deeply meaningful way.

The Sacred Hoop and Our Connection to All Beings
We are each a part of the Sacred Hoop, a circle that holds all life, connecting us to Mother Earth and to each other. As you walk through each day of this retreat, you’ll cultivate a sense of belonging to something greater than yourself. It is through honouring our individual paths that we contribute to the strength of the collective. The drum you birth will carry this connection, serving as a reminder of your place within the Sacred Hoop, a sacred bond that you can carry forward.

An Intimate and Transformative Experience
Bookings for this retreat are strictly limited to 13 participants, ensuring that each person receives the personal attention and support needed for such a transformative experience. This retreat is designed for those who feel the call to birth their own medicine drum, connect with Spirit, and embrace the sacredness of their journey in the company of others on a similar path. Here, friendships are born, laughter is shared, and each person is celebrated for the unique medicine they bring to the circle.

Your Retreat Journey Includes:

• Sacred Drum Birthing: Craft your own Shamanic Medicine Drum in  ceremony that honours the spirit of the materials and the sacredness of the process.
• Drum Beater Creation: Design and create your drum beater, infusing it with your energy and intentions.
• Rituals and Ceremonies: Participate in transformative rituals that align you with Spirit and deepen your connection to your drum.
• Inner Journeys and Meditation: Experience guided meditations and inner journeys that offer healing, clarity, and a profound sense of peace.
• Movement and Sound Healing: Engage in practices that help integrate your experiences and harmonise your spirit with the rhythm of the drum.
• Time for Rest and Connection: In the tranquil setting of Heartland Meadows, you’ll find moments for quiet reflection, time to connect with others, and space to enjoy the peace of nature.

Birthing Your Drum: A Journey of Sacred Intentions
The journey of crafting your own medicine drum is one of awareness, consciousness, and respect. As you work with the hide of the animal and the wood of the frame, you’ll be encouraged to honor the spirit of these gifts and to approach the process with reverence. This retreat supports you in creating not only a unique shamanic tool but also a bond with the drum that will serve as a lifelong ally on your spiritual path.

Come Join Us on This Sacred Path
Each beat of the drum echoes the heartbeat of Mother Earth, calling you to reconnect with yourself and the sacred world around you. This retreat is a chance to pause, reflect, and create something deeply personal and powerful – a medicine drum that embodies your spirit and carries your intentions into the world.

About the Drum

The medicine drum is a shamanic tool used for healing and transformation since ancient times. Drumming has the power to synchronise brain hemispheres and create altered states of consciousness in which healing and wisdom from the higher self can be obtained.

The drum echoes the heartbeat of the Earth and enables us to connect with the rhythm of life. Studies have shown that the Earth vibrates at a frequency of 7.8 – 12 cycles per second. The drum has a frequency of 7 – 14 cycles per second so when we listen to a drum beat we are aligning ourselves with the earth’s vibration. Each time we beat the drum we send out healing vibrations to the Earth. The indigenous people of North America call the drumbeat the heartbeat of the Earth and believe that through the drum we can feel the heartbeat of the Earth.

About Michelle

I AM SHAMANIC PRACTITIONER, DRUM DOULA, HEALER, WORTCUNNER, AND TOOL MAKER

GRANDDAUGHTER OF ROCKY RIVER MOUNTAIN

GREAT GRANDDAUGHTER OF BOHEMIA

HEARTH FIRE WOMAN

SPIDER WARRIOR WOMAN

I CARRY THE HEART OF TWO BEARS

A LIGHT-BRINGER, I ALSO WALK IN SHADOWS

MY ANCESTORS ARE ADVENTURERS, DROVERS, SHEARERS AND STONE MASONS

WALKING BETWEEN MANY WORLDS, I WALK TO THE BEAT OF MY OWN DRUM

When you discover your connection with Spirit you will find that certain objects facilitate those connections and support you to accomplish your work more easily. These may include sacred drums, sacred sticks, rattles, accoutrements, smudge stick fans or plant medicine.

As a Shamanic practitioner, I birthed the tools I needed to continue my journey. During this process, I found a passion and love for crafting tools. I began Craft of Heart and Hearth to create and provide Shamanic tools to assist those travelling on their spiritual journey.

All of my work is forged in sacred space, whilst calling in Spirit into each item and embodying the material’s characteristics.

Whether the tool is to be used to create a sacred sound whilst on a journey or a power object used to amplify your intention, Tools From the Spirit can be custom made for each client.

I work with the separate elements that will become the tool and the spirits in those elements deepens the client’s connection to the final product. All animal materials have been ethically sourced or foraged from deceased animals.

I have been blessed to have wonderful teachers (Heather Price, Richard Littlefeather, Matthew Stonehouse and Jane Elworthy) who have provided me with the foundations and practices I now use to help others.

Meet Your Host

Craig Harmer walks the path of a Kriya Yogi, Meditation and Pranayama Teacher, Vision Guidance Reader, and Divine Source Enhancement Healer, but above all, he sees himself as a companion for those seeking to remember their true essence.

His own awakening began in 2006 when meditation opened a doorway to stillness and inner transformation. Drawn by spirit to deepen this journey, Craig travelled to India in 2011, where the ancient practice of Pranayama Yoga expanded his breath, his awareness, and his ability to guide others into healing and balance.

Over the years, Craig has been blessed to weave together sacred practices – Divine Source Enhancement Healing and Vision Guidance readings – that open pathways for release, clarity, and spiritual renewal. With a gentle presence and an open heart, he creates spaces where others can reconnect to their soul, rediscover peace, and awaken to the light that has always lived within them.

Read what past guests have to say about Craig’s Retreats

I have recently attended the 3-night meditation and intuition retreat with Craig at Heartland Meadows at Chatsworth. I had never been to a retreat before, so I was somewhat nervous and dubious as to what I would gain from attending. The whole experience. Right from driving up the driveway to meeting Craig and our hosts Jenny and Dave was such a magical and fulfilling experience. Craig is a master at what he does. He is so exceptionally skilled and insightful. The breathing practices and meditation I’ve learnt from Craig have literally changed my life. At the retreat, the 80 acres you stay at are beautiful with green rolling hills and the accommodation was clean, comfortable and I felt completely at home and very well looked after. If you are looking to have time out from this frantic busy world, you want to slow down, take a breath and regain your peace and sanity…I highly recommend you do Craig’s retreats, classes or sessions. You are worth it! It will change your life. 💕Fleur

I just spent a week with Craig at Heartland Meadows and what an amazing week it was. Craig has a beautiful way of guiding, encouraging, and mastering the art of meditation. He has a very gentle approach in the way he shares his knowledge, and I’ve learnt so much in such a short time. Next up is Divine Source Enhancement, so watch this space. 💕Denise

I recently attended a retreat held at Heartland Meadows facilitated by Craig. Craig created a very sacred, safe and comfortable space for us to meditate, learn and transform. He taught us breathwork techniques that can be easily integrated into daily practice which have proven invaluable in shutting off an overactive mind. As well as facilitating a beautiful healing with oils, we were all encouraged and nurtured to connect with our hearts and intuition and with each other. Picked up some great information about food as well with some great recipes from Thomas and Imke for cleaner eating. Was a very enjoyable retreat and would highly recommend Craig as a retreat leader and also Heartland Meadows as a wonderful venue for self-discovery. 💕 Antoinette

As I left Craig’s recent retreat weekend I felt calm, centred & inspired. It was, without doubt, the greatest gift I have given myself, a true investment in Me. Heartland Meadows is the perfect setting ; Craig, Jenny & Dave are welcoming, the accommodation is comfortable, the food is hearty & cooked with love . The weekend delivered an idyllic break from day to day routines & habits. The structure allowed for free time to connect with others, sauna & swim or take quiet space & process. I learned meditation techniques to integrate into my new daily routines. I made friendships, laughed & cried, feeling seen & heard on so many levels. All of this is only possible within a sacred space, which Craig curated with skill & reverence. If you feel called to this retreat I urge you to attend. 💕Annette

So last Friday I did something that 12 months ago I never could have imagined myself doing. I headed off on a 3.5 hour solo road trip to Heartland Meadows for a Spiritual Retreat. The only words to describe my experience are absolutely life changing. From Friday evening to mid morning Monday I participated in workshops, meditations and breathing sessions and a fire ceremony. I have learned so much about myself and now know where my life is headed. I met some incredible souls, some of whom, I am now blessed to call friends. I laughed, I cried, I connected with my higher self and I found who I am. I am eternally grateful to Craig Harmer, Jenny and Dave, for helping to make all of this possible. You are incredibly beautiful souls. I will def be going back again to Heartland Meadows. It is a relaxing, serene and safe place to allow myself to be me. For the first time in as long as I can remember, I am truly happy. From here life is just going to get better and I am ready to soar. Love & Light.  💕 Vanessa

Heartland Meadows is THE place to go to find yourself again. I went there thinking my journey was going in one direction, only to be taken in a completely different one! Jenny and Dave are absolutely amazing! And Craig’s healing abilities are on another level! I was able to ease out of my ‘fight or flight’ that had me entangled in a life of tension and unease for over three years! And I didn’t even know I was in it! I was able to journey at my own pace, experience opportunities that could only be experienced in a place of pure trust, unconditional love, and complete self acceptance. And this was all possible because of the combination of how the retreat was run, the welcoming nature of its energies and the energies of the attendees, and the opportunities of the workshops and extra services available. The food was absolutely a main attraction too! It was like eating love with every bite! I could not fault anything! I have a greater sense of self, a toolbox of coping mechanisms and self observation techniques, and (most importantly) a sense of hope. I WANT to live now. I want to share in joy and experiences, and I want to connect. A vast difference to the person who made the 2 hour journey on day one. Thank you all for everything you have provided me. Amazing opportunity. Much love 💕 Amanda

After wanting to go to a retreat for a long time but holding off every time for different reasons, I know now why I made the decision to go to Heartland Meadows as my first retreat ever. From the moment of arriving until the moment of leaving it was just pure love. Jenny and Dave are running a wonderful retreat centre where you will feel welcome as if it is your own home, they are so kind and loving and both have great characters. They’ve invited Craig Harmer to run the retreat and he had an awesome programme for us with great content and guidance. The food they provide which is made with a smile in a warming calming environment with beautiful surroundings, everything just connected for me. I can’t recommend these guys and this place enough, I know I’ll be back.
Much love guys!🙏 💕Jereon

Heartland Meadows is the most special place, I have attended two retreats here and felt so safe, supported and nurtured. The location and physical facilities are paradise but the real gems are Jenny & Dave. The thought and care that is put into each retreat and everything on offer is beyond what you could expect. The food is wholesome and delicious and the workshops are educational and completely soul nourishing. If you’re in need of some self care, time to focus on your health and well being, then look no further. 💕 Laura

My personal journey brought me to Heartlands to stay with Jenny and Dave as a broken soul. Together they have brought me inner wisdom, guidance and an abundance of support that was unwavering. I will be forever grateful for being nourished with wholesome food and supplements, tools to move forward in life and knowing that a piece of Heartland will stay with me. Thankyou both with all my heart. 💕 Justine

I highly recommend Heartland Meadows Retreat. In fact, I couldn’t recommend it highly enough. I have been on two retreats now and I can’t wait to get back there. Jenny does an amazing job of delivering her workshops in a very intelligent and holistic way. It is an educational experience in a relaxing and non-judgemental environment. You definitely feel the love at this place and there are plenty of laughs along the way too. Jenny’s husband, Dave, does such a great job doing all the behind the scenes work and together they create this amazing and beautiful experience. I am so thankful that a friend of mine recommended Heartland Meadows to me. Hugs and kisses to you both Jenny and Dave!!! Thank you! X. 💕 Beth

This is a tiny slice of heaven in sunny coast hinterland. The crew are incredible. Jenny and Dave the horses and the whole team make any time spent there just magical. I witnessed miracles during my time there and will be returning as soon as I can get my kids looked after again. Jenny in particular did all she could to help me when I was in a place of pain and exhaustion. I’m beyond grateful for my time there. Food. Environment. Pool. View. Workshops. All of it is wonderful. Thank you, Jenny. I’m so grateful. 💕 Niki

Heartland Meadows Retreat offers a truly relaxing experience and a chance to take time out from normal life activities and challenges. Jenny and Dave are wonderful hosts who do everything possible to make your stay memorable and enjoyable. Heartland Meadows is a place of tranquillity and peace. You will meet with like-thinking people who soon become friends. I believe that all who attend this retreat will take away Information and practices that will have ongoing benefits to lifestyle and diet. I have thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Heartland Meadows and highly recommend this experience to anyone who wants the chance to stop, relax, reset and come away with a greater understanding of beneficial lifestyle and dietary changes that they can make. 💕 Steve

I went to find peace and found transformation. I could say so many things to convince you to go, but in reality, you have to feel inside if you’re open to experiencing it. For me, it was utterly an important step to change my ways of functioning in life and for sure I’ll be coming back. Thanks, Jenny and Dave for being so caring and lovable human beings. 💕Paula

The most authentic experience I’ve had in a long time. Jenny and Dave embrace you with loving nourishing energy. Highly recommend Heartland Meadows Retreats. 💕Debra

Heartland meadows is an incredible healing space. I’ve attended 3 times and each experience has had enormous impact on my well-being being both mind & body. The costs are unbelievable for what Jenny & Dave offer. The food is divine not to mention the infra-red suana and magnesium pool. You certainly won’t be disappointed once you’ve attended you’ll want to keep going back. 💕Michelle

I love going here!! Jenny is amazing. I can’t thank her enough for all of her kindness, love and understanding. I’ve learnt so much and I will be forever grateful. Dave is fantastic as well and makes the best food! Highly recommend 💕Sam

This is a tiny slice of heaven in sunny coast hinterland. The crew are incredible. Jenny and Dave the horses and the whole team make any time spent there just magical. I witnessed miracles during my time there and will be returning as soon as I can get my kids looked after again. Jenny in particular did all she could to help me when I was in a place of pain and exhaustion. I’m beyond grateful for my time there. Food. Environment. Pool. View. Workshops. All of it is wonderful. Thank you, Jenny. I’m so grateful. 💕 Niki

Amazing retreat. All the little things that make a difference like our names on our door when we arrive and special care with our likes and dislikes. Jenny’s energy and positivity along with her professionalism and caring nature as well as her team of workers, made the whole experience something to cherish. I will be going back. 💕 Julie

I went to find peace and found transformation. I could say so many things to convince you to go, but in reality, you have to feel inside if you’re open to experiencing it. For me, it was utterly an important step to change my ways of functioning in life and for sure I’ll be coming back. Thanks, Jenny and Dave for being so caring and lovable human beings. 💕Paula

Stayed for a week at Heartlands Retreat….what an amazing place Jenny and Dave were wonderful hosts that made each and every one of us feel special. The food was amazing and the program so interesting and very enjoyable and enriching. I went there quite lost in my busy world and left more grounded and nourished in my body mind and soul. Thankyou Jenny, Dave and your lovely family. 💕Sue

Read what previous guests have said about their retreat at Heartland Meadows.

I found me again at Heartland Meadows Retreat. I’d forgotten who I was, how much joy there was in just being. Being present, being nourished, being heard, being seen, being LOVED. Jenny, Craig, Dave and all the wonderful souls that attended the April 2023 ‘Heart Essence of Wellness’ retreat reminded me of this. Such an amazing experience, the place and the people just radiate love and peacefulness.
The accommodation was perfect, comfortable warm beds, fluffy towels and clean bathrooms. The food was amazing.. SO DELICIOUS! I haven’t swam in years, but I loved the warm magnesium pool, especially after a hot sweaty session in the infrared sauna. The property is amazing with beautiful gardens, perfect for watching the sun rise and quiet walks past the horses and the macadamia orchards and through the native bush. Dave and Jenny were amazing facilitators and I loved all of their workshops, every one I came a way with little gems of wisdom that I could apply to my life. I loved everything so much I am going back again this weekend.. not even a week later!! I definitely recommend you take the time to make yourself a priority and get to Heartland Meadows so you can find yourself too.. I’ll see you there!! 💕 Kate

Meet Your Host

Craig Harmer walks the path of a Kriya Yogi, Meditation and Pranayama Teacher, Vision Guidance Reader, and Divine Source Enhancement Healer, but above all, he sees himself as a companion for those seeking to remember their true essence.

His own awakening began in 2006 when meditation opened a doorway to stillness and inner transformation. Drawn by spirit to deepen this journey, Craig travelled to India in 2011, where the ancient practice of Pranayama Yoga expanded his breath, his awareness, and his ability to guide others into healing and balance.

Over the years, Craig has been blessed to weave together sacred practices – Divine Source Enhancement Healing and Vision Guidance readings – that open pathways for release, clarity, and spiritual renewal. With a gentle presence and an open heart, he creates spaces where others can reconnect to their soul, rediscover peace, and awaken to the light that has always lived within them.

Read what past guests have to say about Craig’s Retreats

I have recently attended the 3-night meditation and intuition retreat with Craig at Heartland Meadows at Chatsworth. I had never been to a retreat before, so I was somewhat nervous and dubious as to what I would gain from attending. The whole experience. Right from driving up the driveway to meeting Craig and our hosts Jenny and Dave was such a magical and fulfilling experience. Craig is a master at what he does. He is so exceptionally skilled and insightful. The breathing practices and meditation I’ve learnt from Craig have literally changed my life. At the retreat, the 80 acres you stay at are beautiful with green rolling hills and the accommodation was clean, comfortable and I felt completely at home and very well looked after. If you are looking to have time out from this frantic busy world, you want to slow down, take a breath and regain your peace and sanity…I highly recommend you do Craig’s retreats, classes or sessions. You are worth it! It will change your life. 💕Fleur

I just spent a week with Craig at Heartland Meadows and what an amazing week it was. Craig has a beautiful way of guiding, encouraging, and mastering the art of meditation. He has a very gentle approach in the way he shares his knowledge, and I’ve learnt so much in such a short time. Next up is Divine Source Enhancement, so watch this space. 💕Denise

I recently attended a retreat held at Heartland Meadows facilitated by Craig. Craig created a very sacred, safe and comfortable space for us to meditate, learn and transform. He taught us breathwork techniques that can be easily integrated into daily practice which have proven invaluable in shutting off an overactive mind. As well as facilitating a beautiful healing with oils, we were all encouraged and nurtured to connect with our hearts and intuition and with each other. Picked up some great information about food as well with some great recipes from Thomas and Imke for cleaner eating. Was a very enjoyable retreat and would highly recommend Craig as a retreat leader and also Heartland Meadows as a wonderful venue for self-discovery. 💕 Antoinette

As I left Craig’s recent retreat weekend I felt calm, centred & inspired. It was, without doubt, the greatest gift I have given myself, a true investment in Me. Heartland Meadows is the perfect setting ; Craig, Jenny & Dave are welcoming, the accommodation is comfortable, the food is hearty & cooked with love . The weekend delivered an idyllic break from day to day routines & habits. The structure allowed for free time to connect with others, sauna & swim or take quiet space & process. I learned meditation techniques to integrate into my new daily routines. I made friendships, laughed & cried, feeling seen & heard on so many levels. All of this is only possible within a sacred space, which Craig curated with skill & reverence. If you feel called to this retreat I urge you to attend. 💕Annette

So last Friday I did something that 12 months ago I never could have imagined myself doing. I headed off on a 3.5 hour solo road trip to Heartland Meadows for a Spiritual Retreat. The only words to describe my experience are absolutely life changing. From Friday evening to mid morning Monday I participated in workshops, meditations and breathing sessions and a fire ceremony. I have learned so much about myself and now know where my life is headed. I met some incredible souls, some of whom, I am now blessed to call friends. I laughed, I cried, I connected with my higher self and I found who I am. I am eternally grateful to Craig Harmer, Jenny and Dave, for helping to make all of this possible. You are incredibly beautiful souls. I will def be going back again to Heartland Meadows. It is a relaxing, serene and safe place to allow myself to be me. For the first time in as long as I can remember, I am truly happy. From here life is just going to get better and I am ready to soar. Love & Light.  💕 Vanessa

Heartland Meadows is THE place to go to find yourself again. I went there thinking my journey was going in one direction, only to be taken in a completely different one! Jenny and Dave are absolutely amazing! And Craig’s healing abilities are on another level! I was able to ease out of my ‘fight or flight’ that had me entangled in a life of tension and unease for over three years! And I didn’t even know I was in it! I was able to journey at my own pace, experience opportunities that could only be experienced in a place of pure trust, unconditional love, and complete self acceptance. And this was all possible because of the combination of how the retreat was run, the welcoming nature of its energies and the energies of the attendees, and the opportunities of the workshops and extra services available. The food was absolutely a main attraction too! It was like eating love with every bite! I could not fault anything! I have a greater sense of self, a toolbox of coping mechanisms and self observation techniques, and (most importantly) a sense of hope. I WANT to live now. I want to share in joy and experiences, and I want to connect. A vast difference to the person who made the 2 hour journey on day one. Thank you all for everything you have provided me. Amazing opportunity. Much love 💕 Amanda

After wanting to go to a retreat for a long time but holding off every time for different reasons, I know now why I made the decision to go to Heartland Meadows as my first retreat ever. From the moment of arriving until the moment of leaving it was just pure love. Jenny and Dave are running a wonderful retreat centre where you will feel welcome as if it is your own home, they are so kind and loving and both have great characters. They’ve invited Craig Harmer to run the retreat and he had an awesome programme for us with great content and guidance. The food they provide which is made with a smile in a warming calming environment with beautiful surroundings, everything just connected for me. I can’t recommend these guys and this place enough, I know I’ll be back.
Much love guys!🙏 💕Jereon

“I attend a retreat weekend last weekend with my wife, and I can say we fell in love, not only with the retreat but with Jenny and Dave. Honestly they are the most lovely caring souls, they truly take you into their hearts. The cabins were excellent. the food was divine, the service was excellent and felt personalised. Jenny I can’t thank you enough for what you did for us and the path you guided us to, you are a very special human. We will definitely be back frequently…… Thank you so so much.

“I love going here!! Jenny is amazing. I can’t thank her enough for all of her kindness, love and understanding. I’ve learnt so much and I will be forever grateful. Dave is fantastic as well and makes the best food! Highly recommend 💕” Sam

“Heartland Retreat is a beautiful sacred space that rejuvenates the mind, body and soul. Hosts Jenny and Dave give nurturing care and support and provide for whatever you need. Their openness and love allow everyone to feel relaxed, safe and at peace. The native environment is interspersed with many spiritual statues, chimes, words of wisdom and vibrant colour. The cabins are neat, tidy and very comfortable. The infra red sauna is very therapeutic with intense heat and one is fully invigorated with a dip in the magnesium pool. The whole property is a wonderful area for one to thoroughly immerse into nature and feel the magic of the universe. I highly recommend Heartland Meadows and various workshops offered by Jenny and Dave. I am truly very grateful for the time spent at this retreat and have taken away so much relaxation, shared knowledge and wisdom. Thankyou, Thankyou, Thankyou. 💕– Chris

“Do yourself the favour and visit this piece of paradise! This affordable retreat was the most amazing week that really kicked off 2023. Jenny & Dave are awesome hosts who look after absolutely everything you could possibly need. Healthy, nutritious and scrumptious food (all dietary types catered for) informative and fun workshops and lots of time for relaxation of your choosing. Make new friends, get amongst nature with bush walks, mini ponies and fresh air. Unplugging from the busy day to day life, creating and belonging to a community and learning skills that will carry you through life’s struggles. Rejuvenate your mind and body – you deserve it! Can’t wait to return again soon.“ – Helen

Welcome to Heartland Meadows!

We welcome you with love and joy to experience the magic of Heartland Meadows.

Bountiful blessings and much love,

Step into a deeply restorative and soul-stirring retreat designed exclusively for women ready to explore their inner world through the gentle, powerful lens of art therapy. Nestled in the heart of nature at Heartland Meadows, this retreat offers a nourishing container for you to reconnect with your creative essence, rebuild self-esteem, and discover new levels of self-awareness and resilience.

This is not a retreat about making art that is “good” or “right.” It is about making art that is true – a direct expression of your emotions, stories, and spirit. Whether you consider yourself creative or not, you are welcome here. With warmth and wisdom, Wendy House will guide you through expressive art practices that honour your personal journey and help unlock the hidden layers of your psyche.

✨ A Journey of Creative Discovery and Healing

Over the course of this gentle yet profound long weekend, you will be invited to:

• Reconnect with your authentic voice through mixed-media art processes
• Build emotional resilience by working through self-limiting beliefs in a supportive, nurturing space
• Explore and release internalised stories that no longer serve you
• Cultivate a deeper sense of self-compassion, confidence, and inner strength
• Access states of mindfulness, presence, and peaceful introspection through the act of creation

Art therapy is not about creating a masterpiece – it’s about allowing your inner world to unfold, layer by layer, through paint, chalk, clay, and other tactile materials. Each session is an invitation to listen deeply to yourself, to explore emotions without judgement, and to witness your own inner wisdom emerging on the canvas.

🌿 What You’ll Experience

Art Therapy Sessions using painting, drawing, sculpture, and other mixed media

Guided Meditation to cultivate stillness, inner clarity, and inspiration

Fire Ceremony to symbolically release what no longer serves you and invite in renewal

Women’s Circles to connect, share, and feel deeply seen in a space of unconditional acceptance

Nature Connection through time in the tranquil space of Heartland Meadows

Soulful Rest in peaceful private accommodation surrounded by beauty and calm

Your investment of $1045 will include:

     Private bedroom

    Nourishing meals

    All workshops, art therapy sessions and activities

    Guided meditation

    Magnesium swimming pool

    Infrared sauna

and so much more.

An uplifting experience, shared with an amazing group of women. Jenny and Dave I thank you for the beautiful food, the time and energy you both put into making your guests feel so welcome and sharing your piece of paradise with our group. Loved it 😊This was my 4th retreat facilitated by the lovely Wendy House. If you’re thinking of attending one of these beautiful retreats you will not be disappointed. Much love xxx 💕Kathy

I am grateful to have had a transforming experience at Heartland Meadows. I participated in an art therapy retreat with Wendy and my outlook to the challenges I am facing has completely changed. I am finding my joy and creativity again. Jenny was an amazing, caring, wise and insightful host. The food was healthy and yummy and I’m sure the nourishment enhanced my wellness and contributed to the extra spring I have in my step. Thank-you Dave. While the facilities were not luxurious they were spotlessly clean and the property was serine. I am not looking for luxury when I go away like this. I’m looking for a humble space at an affordable price that provides the opportunity to connect with nature. I am also looking for a place that helps me to reconnect with my joy. Heartland Meadows delivered this and more. My husband wants me to go to Heartland more regularly. He feels like he has his wife back. 💕Kerry

Heartland Meadows is the most special place, I have attended two retreats here and felt so safe, supported and nurtured. The location and physical facilities are paradise but the real gems are Jenny & Dave. The thought and care that is put into each retreat and everything on offer is beyond what you could expect. The food is wholesome and delicious and the workshops are educational and completely soul nourishing. If you’re in need of some self care, time to focus on your health and well being, then look no further. 💕 Laura

My personal journey brought me to Heartlands to stay with Jenny And Dave as a broken soul. Together they have brought me inner wisdom, guidance and an abundance of support that was unwavering. I will be forever grateful for being nourished with wholesome food and supplements, tools to move forward in life and knowing that a piece of Heartland will stay with me. Thankyou both with all my heart. 💕 Justine

This is a tiny slice of heaven in sunny coast hinterland. The crew are incredible. Jenny and Dave the horses and the whole team make any time spent there just magical. I witnessed miracles during my time there and will be returning as soon as I can get my kids looked after again. Jenny in particular did all she could to help me when I was in a place of pain and exhaustion. I’m beyond grateful for my time there. Food. Environment. Pool. View. Workshops. All of it is wonderful. Thank you, Jenny. I’m so grateful. 💕 Niki

I went to find peace and found transformation. I could say so many things to convince you to go, but in reality, you have to feel inside if you’re open to experiencing it. For me, it was utterly an important step to change my ways of functioning in life and for sure I’ll be coming back. Thanks, Jenny and Dave for being so caring and lovable human beings. 💕Paula

Heartland meadows is an incredible healing space. I’ve attended 3 times and each experience has had enormous impact on my well-being being both mind & body. The costs are unbelievable for what Jenny & Dave offer. The food is divine not to mention the infra-red suana and magnesium pool. You certainly won’t be disappointed once you’ve attended you’ll want to keep going back. 💕Michelle
