​Remembering Earth in Sri Lanka

The aromatic spices that grow in Sri Lanka such as Cardamom and Nutmeg, have a long history of helping to heal and support digestion on every level; soothing, mending and stabilizing Earth element. We will study and playfully engage with 7 potent spice essential oils that grow in this region.  These oils are key in:

  • Relieving digestive ailments
  • Lifting and transforming ‘damp’ conditions of the body and mind 
  • Treating the energetic core of neediness or over self reliance 
  • Clearing issues with receptivity, including receiving and generating abundance in all areas of life

These oils can help our body and limbic system to remember the warmth and unending generosity of the Earth herself; they give us access to portals that activate...

  • Sacred reciprocity
  • Ability to restore dynamic balance and harmoniousness 
  • Generosity
  • Abundance, Prosperity and Richness in all areas
  • Fertility
  • Nourishment
  • Steadiness and reliability
  • Loyalty with others and with yourself
  • Ability to manifest naturally 
  • Creative and sensual nature
  • Centered security and confidence
  • Access to the intelligence of your entire body
  • Embodiment of the Medicine of Integration


In this 6 night, 7 day retreat, nestled in a bird sanctuary in the stunning Southern Province, you will be immersed in a sweet transformative Space on Earth experience and healing where you will:


  1. Discover the 5 Element perspective on Earth and how these resonances help give clarity and precision to the healing work that you already do

  4. Experience the depth and power of Sri Lankan iconic EO’s for Earth Element: Vetiver, Nutmeg, Pepper, Ginger, Palmarosa, Cardamon and Coriander Seed
  5. Viscerally understand the difference and significance of “grounding” verses “centering” and how to facilitate this energetic movement
  6. More deeply understand what “soul deprivation” is and it’s cultural and clinical significance: Then how to work with it in order to facilitate the movement from soul starvation to stable self-structure with a blossoming Soul inside 
  7. Discover the resonate power of the voice in moving stagnation specifically related to “dampness” and earth-type stagnation 
  8. Understand the nature of Earth Element within the context of your current self, your ancestors, and the creation of future culture

About the Land and Monara Retreat House

Sri Lanka is the home of the most magnificent spice essential oils. And part of this retreat is devoted to visiting the lands from which they come, and seeing these plants within their natural habitat.

Sri Lanka is also home to unbelievably delicious and Earth element healing foods and dishes. You will have the opportunity to take a cooking "class"  with our retreat chef if you like.

Much of the teachings around Earth make reference to our ‘home,’ and what makes us feel safe and comfortable. Monara Retreat house is a sweet and loving "Home" filled with aromas from Indra's cooking, and Chandrae's delightful laughter (the garden man and supplier of our incredible coconuts).  It's a stunning and beautiful retreat place to hold and nourish us located about 1  ½  to 2 hours south of Colombo (main city with airport). The nearest city is Bentota, although Monara is tucked up on a hill at the edge of a small village. It's on a nature reserve and wetlands. You will wake up to divine bird song every morning. Monara House is 5 kilometers from the beach and ideally located for day excursions.

Rooms are either single (private) with fans, or shared accommodations with AC.  There will be up to 10 retreat guests allowing for deeper exploration and healing on all levels.  There are plenty of areas to wonder, read, rest and explore within the House and the property.

You will enjoy  a gorgeous infinity pool for playing and soaking, gardens for relaxing in (I'm sure Chandrae can't wait to show you around 'his' garden!), and outdoor areas for movement or chanting/singing. The village is a 5 to 10 minute walk and we'll go there on 'Farmers Market' day. The locals are some of the kindest folk I have ever known.

The food is… well, beyond magnificent; the fragrances and flavors literally heal the body and mind.  You will be surrounding by the elements, the lush green, the beautiful water within the pool and canal, the moist and rich earth, and the warm breezes that make their way through the trees.

​We have an exceptional Ayurvedic practitioners who offers all sorts of traditional healing treatments at incredible rates (sessions range from $5.00 - $35.00). The traditional head and foot massage with medicinal oils is absolutely divine!

November is one of the best months to visit Sri Lanka. The temperature is very pleasant: 70’s at night, and low 80’s during the day with cleansing rains that may come and go.  Humidity is high, which may take some getting used to. The food and spice helps you acclimate and your skin will love it!

Space on Earth is powerful medicine and antidote for these times. And it’s not just about the experience while you are there. This is about ‘remembering’ and creating fundamental energetic changes in your tissues and cells so that you can transmit this Earth & Space Medicine upon your return home.


Come to Monara, our "Safe House" of goodness and delight. We welcome you with open arms, essential oils, wisdom, movement and delicious food.   Beauty, stability and clarity await us.

Space on Earth ~  Sri Lanka Travel Information 


FLIGHTS:

You will be flying into Colombo International Airport also known as Bandaranaike International Airport (CMB). There are many airlines that fly into this location including Sri Lankan Airlines, Emirates, Qatar, and Etihad Airlines. We suggest starting with an Expedia (or similar site) search. This will provide a list of possible airlines and cost range. The general cost from both East and West coasts to Sri Lanka ranges from $900.00 on up, round trip. Once you have chosen your airline you can then continue booking on third party site or directly with the airline. I have found that booking through the airline site provides more clarity and options (meal types, seats, etc).

Remember that a full day will be added on the way there due to cross of date line. In addition, travel times can range from 18 to 30 hours (depending on layovers).

We strongly suggest arriving one day before the start of the retreat. There are hotels near the airport that are absolutely lovely. You will be in good hands. So plan to fly in, arriving by the 18th. You can spend one night at the suggested hotel below and then a shuttle can pick up a group of you to take you down to Monara House. We have a suggested shuttle service (see below). They are aware of our retreat and we can work together with you to arrange the pick up (you are responsible for cost of shuttle which will be $30.00 - $50.00 USD).



ARRIVAL SUGGESTIONS

  • Arrival Hotel: Green Olive Villa. Please tell them (or write when booking online) that you are with Tiffany’s retreat. Rates are $60.00 - $80.00 USD per night and this includes FREE airport pick-up and drop off even if you get in the middle of the night!
  • https://www.booking.com/hotel/lk/airport-green-olive-villa.html
  • ​ https://www.facebook.com/greenolivevilla/?fref=photo
  • Arrive by the 20th of Nov. and stay one night near the airport, or arrive no later than the morning of the 21st
  • Share a shuttle with others from airport area hotel to Monara House on the 21st, arriving around lunch time
  • Shuttle service to retreat center: Green Olive can provide this. Cost will be $30.00 - $50.00 depending on the number of people and vehicle type


VISAS
The Sri Lanka visa process is extremely easy. It takes about 15 minutes to fill out application online and then the visa will be ready for you “upon arrival.” Here is the official site with online application:
https://www.eta.gov.lk/slvisa/visainfo/center.jsp?locale=en_US​

IMMUNIZATIONS
There are no required immunizations for travel to Sri Lanka, although there are suggested ones (ones that most US citizens already have). You can find out more about this topic here:
http://www.tmb.ie/destinations/vaccinations-for-sri-lanka
http://wwwnc.cdc.gov/travel/destinations/traveler/none/sri-lanka



OTHER CONSIDERATIONS

Plan to bring covered shoes for walking, layered clothing for night time, sunscreen, bathing suit, bug spray, a rain jacket, comfortable loose clothing for movement sessions, a journal and pen, camera, a photocopy of your passport to keep separately. I will send all registrants a complete and very helpful written and audio guide to support you through the planning, packing and traveling process.

Mosquitos that carry disease are prevalent all over the world.  Some mosquitoes in Sri Lanka carry dengue fever, which can be easily prevented.   As a foreign traveler it’s important to take precautions.  Please bring bug spray or essential oils to prevent mosquito bites.  If you choose to use a spray with “deet” please be respectful of others who are sensitive to chemicals and only use outside away from housing areas. We will also be making our effective bug spray together.

​The dengue fever area is concentrated around Colombo and a couple other large cites. We have had no problem with dengue in our area, and in fact the mosquitos are less at Monara House than many other areas of the country.  

Most Sri Lankans speak english and are very eager to help Americans. It is quite easy to communicate and get around there.

For non-Covid related cancellations before Sept 30th 2021, a refund less a $50.00 administrative fee is given
