Public Announcement

I am putting this out there to let everyone know that from the 25th November until the 6th January I will be taking a very much needed self imposed long service leave. During this time I will not be answering SMS, texts and emails. My wonderful Admin staff will be monitoring these in my absence.

I am now fully booked out until the week of the 15th November so if anyone is interested in either a private tantra session, counselling or phone consult with me now is your time to book in advance.

So proud and honored to be featured in the latest edition of the incredible Y Magazine Australia alongside 7 other beautiful and talented ladies as a 2019 woman of influence. Thank you Shar and all the team for this special opportunity to shine my love and light out into the world. ❤️🌟❤️🌟

It's not every day I can say that I am featured in Australia's leading empowerment magazine for women but today another dream has comes true and I am so honored to be featured in the latest edition of Y Magazine on the subject of Self-Belief and helping more woman be empowered to be the best version of themselves that they can possibly be.

Self-belief comes from a knowing that you are enough, that your soul quality is a precious and unique gift and it is yours and yours alone to share with the world, that if you fall down, pick yourself up, dust yourself off and keep believing in your dreams, your goals, your gifts to share for the greater good of humanity.

It is finally here!!!!

TESTIMONY

"As it was our 34th Wedding Anniversary we decided to enroll for the Couples Retreat for a quiet but special break away. We'd read a little about "Tantra" many years ago but really had no idea and had received no formal instruction. The weekend was absolutely life-changing for us in our relationship. We believe we've been given a precious gift, enhancing our relationship and bringing us closer together in our Coupleship than we ever could have imagined.

Cathy and her team presented information to us in such a beautiful, respectful and professional manner. It was a truly magical experience and we'd recommend the retreat, workshops and indeed everything at the Sanctuary to any couple devoted to enriching their relationship". (S & B Perth)

TWO FREE ‘MINI’ WORKSHOPS

On the 20th July the Film Director and Producer will be coming to Perth to film me teaching a "mini workshop" and to meet the potential actors for my new TV series. Originally the producers named this "The Tantric Life", however, this has now changed to "The World of Sacred Love - A six part lifestyle series".

I will be teaching on the topics of Esoteric Tantra and Sacred Love.  If you attend you will have to be comfortable being filmed.  This will not be viewed anywhere publicly.

THE DETAILS ARE:

• THIS Saturday the 20^th July at the Sanctuary of Ananda
• 10am to 12pm OR
• 1pm to 3pm

We are also seeking interested parties, both couples and singles, who wish to be involved in both class and individual filming to be produced and filmed in Greece and W.A. early 2020.

Please send a brief CV, some photos along with filling out the questions below:

1. Do you think there is a need for this TV series? If so why?
2. What would you like to encourage Catherine to cover and focus on from your perspective? Topics, teachings experiences, life experience, Tantric love, healing from abuse and toxic relationships. 
3. Here are our six episode working titles... any thoughts? Would you like anything else covered? 
4. We are filming portions of this in Greece, do you consider this romantic and exotic location would enhance our teachings and the message we wish to share? If so, why? 
5. How intimate and real do you think we should produce the subject material and content? We understand this will have a MA TV rating…. 
6. Would you be interested in being part of the filming in Perth and possibly Greece? If so, what do you think you might bring to the project and why do you think you might be perfect for this? There would be some intimacy and some nudity required. 
7. Do you have any further thoughts or suggestions?      

Numbers are strictly limited so please PM or email [email protected] to register.  First in best dressed :-)

Hi and welcome to our latest newsletter. 

Today I realised that the last newsletter I wrote was back in March, it is amazing how quickly this year is rushing by and into June already. 

The last few months have been focused on the Accredited Trainings both in Perth and Sydney. What I have noticed more and more of when teaching these Modules lately is all the  students who come together to learn display nothing but respect, love, understanding and harmlessness towards one another that unifies the group in light.  These are the major key ingredients to walking an authentic spiritual Path.

This is such a safe and professional environment to learn in with many reflections and aha moments. You will definitely be challenged but in a good way that pushes you out of your comfort zone to bring growth and change. This training concentrates more on spiritual growth through knowledge of the mind and love through the heart, not the overstimulation of emotions and glamour.

Many thanks to all the students who have attended these so far, to Bella for and Beth for assisting me and the groups, to Kale for preparing our meals and last but not least the volunteers who put their hands up to assist the Practitioners in training to further their learning. I love to teach ‘hands on’ training because it really is the only way to learn about the different aspects of personalities, bodies, and the witness of Self.

In 2020 these trainings will change and I will be teaching less of them due to a new project coming up in Greece.  I am also leaving for Japan in November for a few months study so if anyone is interested the last dates for these trainings are below.

Much love,

Catherine xox 

Coming Soon!

Reiki was my first love and it was a journey that changed my life dramatically bringing so much healing and accelerated growth through awareness of consciousness, so much so that it catapulted my career as a spiritual teacher.  I have been blessed to have studied with the International House of Reiki in Sydney and the incredible Professor Mari Hall, founder of the International Association of Reiki.

What is Tantra?

Tantra is one of the oldest healing practices in the world. It means to “weave” weaving the form (the body) with higher consciousness (the soul). The practice of Tantra is duality to unity which lifts humanity one step up from the animal kingdom, the basic primal desire nature and into the heart of the Divine.

Tantra is a science of evolution, unlocking and decoding life’s many mysteries and discovering the mystery of self, self-realization, self-knowledge and self-love. When self-love is awakened, we recognize this as unconditional love in others, our community, humanity and the soul.

The benefits of learning Tantra

• Eastern Tantra is a pathway to ‘know thyself’ as both a form of matter (body) and as a soul (higher self).
• Tantra celebrates and honours the body, pleasures and Indriyas (senses).
• Tantra is a gateway to higher consciousness that lifts the lower primal sex expression into the sacredness of the divine.
• Tantra is a journey of duality to Unity, liberation from the human kingdom and a passageway into the Divine.
• Tantra moves us out of involution and into the heart of evolution so that we keep growing.
• Tantra is amazing, incredible, inspirational and life changing!
• Tantra is a gift of sacred love

Men’s Workshop – Do you know what women really want?

• Date:   18^th August 2019
• Time:  10am to 5pm
• Cost:   $195 (all inclusive: Lunch and Manual)
• Venue: The Sanctuary of Ananda Perth
• Book Online

Due to so many inquiries of late we have decided to teach this workshop one last time for 2019.  This is a fantastic day for men to not only learn ‘what women really want’ spiritually, physically and emotionally but also to ponder on what is true masculine energy and how this energy holds space for yourself and your partner.   If you are interested please click on the link below, Rebekah and I would love to see you there. 

Couples Retreat – Celebrating Sacred Love

Hi and welcome to our latest Newsletter.

I trust that all is going well in your world and the last few months have been wonderful for you so far.  My world has been incredibly busy of late with lots of travelling for recent Workshops and trainings in Adelaide, Melbourne and Perth.  It was such a joy to be able to share my teachings outside of Perth. Thank you to the lovely Jesse Miller and Elise Carr for co-facilitating these events with me.

So what’s coming up at the Sanctuary?

TRAINING

Perth - 4th - 8th May 

Sydney - 20th - 26th May 

Internationally Accredited Tantra Practitioner Training Foundered since 2006

Module 1 Accredited Certificate in Eastern Tantra

Module 2 Accredited An Mo Tantric and Chakra Balancing Massage

Relationships are one of the most sacred and important aspects in our life. This includes the relationship we have with ourselves as well as friends, family and partners. Most people desire to be in a relationship that is based in connection, loving understanding, passion and harmony yet so many struggle with communication and intimacy issues, conflicts, and incompatibility; never really finding the Sacred Union that their heart and soul ultimately desires.

Tantra is one of the oldest healing practices in the world. It means to “weave” weaving the form (the body) with higher consciousness (the soul). The practice of Tantra is duality to unity which lifts humanity one step up from the animal kingdom, the basic primal desire nature and into the heart of the Divine.

The essence of Tantra is that of Sacred Love.

This Accredited Tantra Training is a four part module system held over 12 months that will enable the student to gain deeper knowledge and insight into the teachings and philosophy of Eastern Tantra and to understand the principle teachings of consciousness and self-love. When self-love is awakened, we recognize this as unconditional love for others, our community, humanity and all souls.

If you are searching for authentic spiritual wisdom, to gain a deeper insight into self, to add and utilize skills for a new or existing holistic business and to really make a difference in the world, then this life changing training is for you.

Article

One of the best explanations I’ve heard on what the word spiritual means:

The word “spiritual” does not refer to religious matters, so called. All activity which drives the human being forward towards some form of development - physical, emotional, mental, intuitional, social - if it is in advance of his present state, is essentially spiritual in nature and is indicative of the livingness of the inner divine. The spirit of man is undying; it forever endures, progressing from point to point, and stage to stage upon the Path of Evolution, unfolding steadily and sequentially the divine attributes and aspects. (Master DK) 

Namaste,

Welcome to a wonderful new year at the Sanctuary. 2019 marks our 19^th year in business and I honestly don’t know where the time has gone.

If you are looking for further spiritual inspiration, direction and guidance to improve yourself and your relationship this year then please take a look at our Events coming up for 2019.  We also have a fabulous fundraiser to win a place at the Couples Retreat which will be held at the beautiful Pullman Bunker Bay in Dunsborough.  Full details are located at the end of this Newsletter.

Wishing you a fabulous year and looking forward to sharing my continual passion of Tantra and the Esoteric Arts.

With love, Cathy

Private Counselling Sessions

These sessions are available in person or via phone/skype for couples, women and men that are focused on a combination of therapies such as Counselling, Tantra, Sacred Sexuality, Spirituality and Esoteric teachings, depending upon what the client needs.

For the last 7 years I have been studying the ways of esoteric psychology which brings both the Eastern and Western traditions together as well as teaching and studying Tantra for the last 30 years.  I don’t believe that I “heal” people; my passion lies in wanting people to learn how to heal themselves.  True healing can only take place when a pattern or a blind spot is seen and understood and sometimes it takes time to navigate the links to the deepest cores of these patterns so ongoing counselling is always recommended. Through these skills, I am able to show and explain the blind spots, blockages, repressions, self-sabotage and wounds from a mental perspective and why they continue to play out in your life in a perpetual cycle of suffering and emotional confusion.  This process starts with awareness and through awareness the first steps of taking control of your own life begins.  This also includes self-love and self-realization, two key elements to really discovering and knowing who you are.  From here the development of mental training and heart awakening begins. The mind sees the heart feels and this is the true liberation and unconditional love that these teachings bring.  Imagine living a life every day filled with purpose and joy.

If this resonates with you, then please click on our booking links below or feel free to send me an email [email protected] and I would be more than happy to chat briefly regarding any aspects of these sessions and what would be most beneficial for you.
