Review by Leigh
"Words can’t describe our beautiful experience yesterday at Awakening Alchemy Retreat Centre, a private sound bath followed by tea, cake and fireside chats, it was the most perfect way to spend my birthday. Tomaz and Dan had thought of everything to provide an indulgent and nurturing experience. Luxurious mats and blankets meant we could fully relax and let go during the most sublime sound bath, followed by delicious cheesecake and chats round the fire. We loved hearing about everything they offer there, and I can’t wait to return! "

Review by Emily
“My sister and I booked the Tranquil Tea Time as a little treat after a hectic work week, and it was heavenly from start to finish. The china cups, the soft music, the scent of freshly baked cake—every detail whispered ‘slow down.’ We chatted over cups of Earl Grey in the sun‑dappled courtyard, then wandered the garden paths, spotting butterflies and bumblebees. It felt as if the whole place belonged to us for those precious moments. We left lighter, calmer, and already planning our next visit.”

COACHING

Reclaim inner harmony and clarity with this profound healing experience designed to empower and renew your spirit.
ALEXANDER TECHNIQUE
From Pain to Peace
Are you suffering from aches and pains, or tension in your body? Often, when we are under stress or have experienced a physical or emotional shock, the nervous system can get stuck in fight, flight, freeze, and this can cause contraction and pain in our muscles. We need to offer ourselves the opposite to feel better - a feeling of safety, warmth and TLC. Force creates more force, tension, more tension. It's time to find more ways to be gentle with ourselves, to support and accelerate the healing process.
If you've struggled to find relief with other types of physical therapy, then the Alexander Technique could hold the key to less tension, less pain and lower stress levels.
The Alexander Technique is a well-established and time-tested method with over 100 years of history and is recommended by the NHS and BMJ research as an extremely effective intervention for long-term back and neck pain. It has also been shown to be of benefit to people with Parkinson's disease.

WHAT OUR GUESTS SAY
TESTIMONIALS
Full of integrity, wisdom, and genuine kindness, Tomaz is a blessing to all who know and work with him! Tomaz does everything from the heart with pure compassion. I had the honour of meeting and working with Tomaz in person at our Spiritual Retreat in England in 2022. I watched in awe as he skilfully worked and administered various healing methods to myself and others, and is masterful at gauging exactly what is needed for every client. He has a deep connection with the spirit world, that guides him in his shamanic, meditative, and practical work, anchored by his extensive knowledge of Ayurveda, plant medicines, meditation, and many other healing practices. The changes I've experienced and witnessed in others have been profound. Tomaz is the man I recommend to anyone seeking a trustworthy and skilled energy healer for their health journey.

Quantum Truths
I was fortunate enough to have a session with Tomaz which I honestly cannot recommend enough. He was able to help me in so many ways, even issues that I had no idea had been laying dormant for many years. It was such a beautiful experience that has changed me for the greater good. I felt totally comfortable and relaxed and received so much insight and information which has enabled me to move forward with the renewed sense of clarity and understanding. I really cannot put into words how beautiful and powerful my session with Tomaz was and certainly one that has shaped me on a personal level and for that I am so very grateful.
EMMA
It is hard for me to sum up my feelings, gratitude and respect for Tomaz Mueller. He’s blown me away on so many levels and brought forward logic with the perfect balance of heart centered compassion. There are techniques and tips that I have used in my every day routine that are both practical and helpful. Tomaz embraces uniqueness and in both his energy work and his knowledge. He intuitively knows exactly what to say and how to make something for work me and my energy signature. I love his way of finding rhythm and flow while he stands in his power. I look up to Tomaz and constantly am learning through and from him. I recommend Tomaz far - wide and through all dimensions!
TAYLOR
In my testimonial video I forgot to mention how delicious the food is at the retreat! From the ingredients to the attention to detail in the presentation, everything was perfect, and my digestion has never been better. The garden is wild and wondrous with water trickling through. I highly recommend exploring to find the little covered swing by the pond. Thank you, Dan and Tomaz for giving me the space and the tools to get what I needed from this retreat.
LOUISE
I had the absolute pleasure of joining Tomaz and Dan during their online retreat. At the beginning of the retreat, my energy was depleted due to some heartache. Little did I know, that with the epic aid of both Tomaz and Dan’s wisdom, heart and knowledge I’d be shaking these emotions off, I’d be washing the emotions away, I’d be remembering who I AM, I’d be connecting fully in to my Body, Mind and Soul and connecting to that little lost inner child, that was so desperately in need of comfort, love and hugs. Tomaz and Dan are an absolute powerhouse of love and both these beautiful souls can change the way you acknowledge and connect with yourself but also your soul. The RRR retreat is breath giving and certainly an experience of delicious soul food, not to be missed.

GalArtic
Tomaz is a gifted shaman and energy healer who has transformed my life. Attending his online retreat and participating in a sacred tobacco ceremony were both profound experiences that brought about significant breakthroughs. Through his guidance, I was able to see the root of my love for sweets and chocolate is a way to compensate for a lack of sweetness in my life. Tomaz's support and the love of others in the ceremony were transformative, reminding me that true happiness can be found without sugar or chocolate. I feel blessed to have had the opportunity to work with Tomaz and cannot recommend him highly enough to anyone seeking true transformation and healing. Thank you, Tomaz, for your extraordinary gift.
