Retreats

For a deeper dive into Trauma Healing Work or Natural Health we offer transformational retreats. These are a safe container to work on your inner blocks, to immerse yourself into the process and to enter a space for deep healing and change. Multi-day Retreats are offered as a tailored one to one or small group.

A Note on Personalised Trauma Healing

Trauma work entails a level of sensitivity and safety that goes beyond normal events and retreat spaces. All sessions are confidential, and are held in safe, private containers, with softness, presence, and love.

With a commitment to self awareness and extensive trauma training  the containers are a space to truly let go of the past and know that whatever arises, is welcome.

One to One sessions offer personalised attention and format. Integration is offered for each session. Group trauma work sessions can be experienced in our Deeper Dive Retreats.

The 5 Pillars

of

Natural Health

After years of extensive teachings and experience, the 5 Pillar System to Natural Health offers you a holistic and empowering approach for your health and wellbeing. Our Natural Health courses and retreats focus on offering you these 5 Pillars to give you the key to freedom, wellness, and good health.

The Natural Way.

It is time to REMEMBER!

It starts with us… Is your mindset Growth or Fixed? How is your self care? Are you willing to work on yourself and be self aware?

Earthing, Breathwork, Cold Immersion, Meditation, Shrin Yoku, all serve our physiology in incredible ways, bringing health

Trauma from our past, and our ancestral lines affects us daily through our neurology, we need to clear the past to be present

All we need for our healing is present in the natural world, from foods we can forage to herbalism, the medicines we need are there.

Our systems are part of a wider whole, when we connect to this we feel aligned, grounded and whole

Why "Held In Presence?"

All of the tools that I have been blessed to be introduced to along my healing journey have one thing in common. All of them are ways for me to connect to the divine field, that reaches far beyond my physical self. The field that interconnects with everything, the field that knows no time.

It is in this field that I have experienced healing, through connection to nature, and its natural medicine, through transcendental work, expanded states of consciousness, release of old traumas, through insights, through a recalibration of my cells and neurology as my brain moves into coherence.

Held in Presence
It is in this field that I have found peace, and it is in this field where I am Held In Presence.

There is nothing more or less. Just presence.

This field has an infinite potential, and when we surrender into this space, our selves realise our own infinity, our wholeness.

It is this field that I feel holds me, as I hold others; I can not lay claim to any of it. It guides my way, and so in that guides you.

And it is in this holding, that the healing comes.

We have everything we need to heal.

One to One Coaching, Compassionate Inquiry or Breathwork

floral-decor

One to Ones create a private container where you get personalised attention based on your needs and aims for the sessions.

These can be a one off or done as a series of 5 sessions to create a deeper lasting change.

Every session is tailored to you, options of format can be chosen between three main modalities (Coaching, Compassionate Inquiry, and NeuroDynamic Breathwork).

Coaching sessions are intuitive and include tools from Personal and Business Coaching courses (holistic and executive) and blended with PolyVagal Theory, Emotional Release, NLP etc… They can be goal orientated or free form depending on the coaching needs.

The other two modalities are detailed below.

Sliding scales are available – so always reach out if you need.

Compassionate Inquiry

Compassionate Inquiry is a psychotherapeutic method developed by Dr. Gabor Maté that reveals what lies beneath the appearance we present to the world. Using Compassionate Inquiry, the therapist unveils the level of consciousness, mental climate, hidden assumptions, implicit memories and body states that form the real message that words both express and conceal. Through Compassionate Inquiry, the client can recognize the unconscious dynamics that run their lives and how to liberate themselves from them. Sessions are up to 45 minutes, and at a reduced rate while completing my case studies for course completion.

NeuroDynamic Breathwork

NeuroDynamic Breathwork sessions allow direct access to the unconscious mind through breathwork, where we can become aware of our unconscious blockages, outdated thinking patterns and conditionings and bring them to consciousness for healing. Sessions are done one to one or in small groups on retreat. Full confidentiality and safe container is provided. Neurological healing is the same as accessed in psychedelic therapy but you are in control of the process and substance free. Screening session and medical forms, breathwork session, integration and follow up call.

About Me

Gayle Murphy Costa Rica

Sidenote if you are a science nerd: Aside from what I offer at Held In Presence, I also run workshop series based on The Science of Self. These revolve around neuroscience, trauma and attachment theory, polyvagal theory and neurobiology. For more info on the courses: Relating, Trauma and Attachment and The Science of Self – Gamechanger Intensive please click here for www.thescienceofself.org.

My journey started many years ago, after a turbulent childhood, losing myself in drugs, alcohol, eating disorders and sexuality.

I reached a place of no return around 21 and had no choice but to get help.

The path of self help and more importantly spirituality crossed my path, starting yoga, meditation, chanting. I learned about the syncronicity of life, how our path is guiding us to heal, and how we are always connected to something far more infinite than we can ever know. We are part of it.

It wasn’t an easy ride, and I am still on the path of learning and growing daily.

I have spent the last 15 years building on the first 10, working on my deepest subconscious traumas, learning how to communicate my feelings and needs, cleaning my lifestyle up from all the addictions, learning how to heal myself from nature and all her resources, and gaining huge insights into the science behind my relationship dynamics and neurodiversity.

Overall, you wouldn’t recognise me from the person I was, and what I noticed (and learned the scientific reason for) is that the most powerful tool we have is connecting to that wider field. To the Divine Presence; the magic that is the essence of the whole world we live in and beyond!

Over the years I focussed on learning tools to help me connect to that field, to heal. I learned breathwork practices, meditation, somatic trancework, emotional release practices and regulation tools, and even took and studied psychotropic plants and their allies. Not to mention how to keep the body a clean channel to tune in through diet and lifestyle.

The biggest learning I found in everything, was the art of surrender, getting out of the way so the magic can happen, having to drop any preconceived ideas of I AM, as well as fears and limitations, and truly let go into Grace.

I broke apart all I was, learned how to be humble (and my god I needed it), and learned how to truly listen (most of the time anyway).

This combined with the alignment of our physical self with natural healing, connection to the earth, a transition to natural healing, herbalism, foraging wild plants, and all that is naturally provided to us, that helps us heal. Stepping away from the addictions and strategies we are brought into though our societal systems.

Now my focus is on supporting others with the same tools that have brought me so much. Now I wish to offer myself in service.

Holding the space for the presence to do its work, helping you to connect to nature, the divine field, to yourself.

Because I am just a conduit, as we all are, to this beautiful divine energy. This energy that moves through all of this magical planet, and all that surrounds us.

And so the tools I offer are to help you tune in, heal, let the dirty water run clear, to help your nervous system learn what it feels to feel safe.

To help you let go of what no longer serves you, and break habits that hold you back. Taking steps to a new you, with natural healing.

So you, can be Held In Presence.

Held within a farmhouse in Gozo, The Sanctuary is a cosy space for you to BE.

During Winter months it is a Wellness Centre, open to all and in Summer months it is our Event and Retreat Space, for deeper work.

The Sanctuary offers you access to a place to reflect, be in stillness, attend an wellness session or course during winter months, or just chill with others or alone.

 If you want a deeper dive you can ask me about the Upcoming Remember and Relating Trauma and Attachment Retreats or the Natural Health Retreats returning in 2025 – run personalised to you. If you want to just come and chill there are also beautiful rooms to rent for a peaceful time of relaxation and rest.

The Nook offers a private separate space to be silent, pray, meditate or do yoga when there are no sessions on in there.

The Sanctuary is a building block of a larger project to come and it is thanks to you all, for giving it the gift of your presence every year, that we are moving towards a permanent space.

So thank you!

Please note: The Sanctuary and all events run by The Sanctuary are substance free and promote healing and clean living through tools and lifestyle choices.
