STOP HIDING. LET'S PUT AN END TO YOUR STRESS AND STRUGGLE TOGETHER....
Feeling Overwhelmed?
We know what it feels like to be holding it all together on the outside, while inside it’s a very different story. Life gets heavy when you’re carrying so many responsibilities, trying to please everyone, and still feeling like you’ve lost yourself somewhere along the way.
Losing Yourself and Your Direction
Maybe you’ve lost your sense of identity or meaning. Maybe anxiety has crept in and you’ve been outsourcing it in ways you know aren’t helping. Maybe you feel your confidence slipping, your worth questioned, and you’re just tired of running on empty. And deep down, you know you need a clear direction — but it feels impossible to find when you’re so time-poor and overwhelmed.
You Don’t Need More of the Same!
You don’t need more therapy sessions, more self-help books, or another prescription. You need real change. And you need it fast.
How We Help
At Alive, we meet you exactly where you are — with honesty, directness, and zero judgment. We know these struggles because we’ve been there ourselves. That’s why we become more than just a program — we become your second family, your support system, and the people who hold you up while you find your way back to yourself.
Personalised Support Just for You
We work privately with every client, tailoring your journey to your unique needs. Along the way, you’ll rediscover your worth, rebuild your direction, and create an unbreakable relationship with yourself.
Transformation You Can Feel
And — something most people don’t expect — the process is actually fun, inspiring, and full of light moments. This is your reset. Your space to breathe. And your chance to come back to yourself — stronger than ever.
WHAT IF INSTEAD OF JUST 'COPING' WE ACTUALLY TRANSFORMED YOUR LIFE?
Imagine Feeling Whole Again!!
What you really want isn’t another quick fix. You want to feel alive, balanced, and in control — to wake up each day with clarity, energy, and purpose. You want to move beyond stress, anxiety, and burnout, and finally reclaim your sense of self.
Transformation, Not Just Coping or Quick Fixes
That’s why we don’t focus on “managing” or “dealing with” struggles. We focus on real transformation — change that touches every part of your life, not just the surface symptoms. Using proven tools, in the right order, and personalised for you, we guide you to lasting results that actually stick.
A Journey Tailored to Your Uniqueness
Many of our clients arrive having tried everything, and together we design a personalised retreat that gets to the core of what’s holding you back. No cookie-cutter solutions. No one-size-fits-all advice. Just a clear, honest path focused on your story, your needs, your future.
Lasting Change You Can Feel With Full Support
We support you before, during, and long after your retreat, so the breakthroughs you experience don’t fade once you return to everyday life. With your commitment and our proven process, you’ll walk away with more than relief — you’ll gain clarity, strength, and a renewed relationship with yourself that changes everything.
Your Life, Fully Alive
You don’t need another coping strategy. You deserve a life that feels truly alive, purposeful, and vibrant — and we’re here to make sure you get there.
An Empowered Approach To Personal Change
What If We Told You - There’s Nothing Wrong With You!
We want you to know this right away: you’re not broken. You don’t need fixing. What if, instead of focusing on what’s “wrong,” we focused on what’s right with you — your potential, your strengths, your untapped abilities?

Holistic Assessment
You don't need 5 specialists. You need one team to complete a thorough 360 degree view of your life, health, past, mind & future. Rarely is those done correctly if at all. After this assessment the team cultivates a plan for action, healing & transformation that works.
Find The Root Cause
What you believe is the cause of the 'crash' rarely is. And it can seem that there are so many issues to deal with. Using the butterfly effect we target the true core issues that are truly driving the problems & support the whole person to heal through powerful education & rapid healing with full team support.
Natural Balance
We reject guesswork, quick fixes, and approaches that fail to address the root cause. Instead, we focus on holistic, natural, and scientifically validated methods to heal the body, restore balance, and utilize contemporary natural medicine to achieve your desired results for physical energy and mental calmness.
Cleanse The Body
Many of our clients don't realise that their physical health and habits are driving the problem. We ensure we help you thrive (not survive) & help you integrate the fuel your mind and body needs to heal issues at the core with nutrition protocols, diet, detox & natural medicine that works to speed healing of the whole person.
