Hear From Other Doctors
The retreat was a great reminder about the importance of having a regulated nervous system and strategies to achieve this in the face of sticky situations and challenges in leadership. Highly valuable for self improvement at work and life in general.
A greater understanding of the importance of starting with self, bringing mindfulness and emotional regulation into day to day leadership and practical tools to embed this into a coaching approach to leading others to reduce burnout.
This retreat was a great reminder of the power of kindness in leadership - kindness towards yourself as a leader, and kindness to those you lead. I came out of the retreat reinvigorated and ready to face my workplace with renewed enthusiasm and positivity.
About the Location
SOMA Byron Bay: Nature, Stillness, and Subtle Transformation
Just ten minutes from the heart of Byron Bay, SOMA rests gently on 22 acres of pristine rainforest- a tranquil, architecturally designed haven where the natural world holds space for restoration and reflection. Towering bamboo, ancient trees, and quiet walking paths invite a slowing down that feels both rare and necessary.
The land here has long been recognised by Indigenous Australians as a place of deep healing, and it holds that energy still. Within this setting, the gentle soundscape of rustling leaves and birdsong replaces the urgency of alarms and notifications. SOMA’s signature geodesic dome, framed by soaring bamboo, becomes a sanctuary for learning, dialogue, and stillness.
Each detail of the environment is intentionally crafted to support the retreat experience: from the magnesium pool that eases tension, to nourishing, shared meals that sustain clarity and calm. Whether gathered in shared reflection or walking alone among the trees, participants are gently invited to soften- body, mind, and pace.
