Sacred Second Chance Retreat

Awaken the Life Within. Because sometimes life gives us a sacred opportunity to begin again.

Reserve your place for this transformative wellness retreat and experience a unique program inspired by two powerful journeys of healing, awakening, and reclaiming life.

Date: Friday 18th Sep 3:00 PM – Monday 21st September 2026 11:30 AM

One practitioner spent 50 days in palliative care after being diagnosed with terminal bowel cancer. During her healing journey, Chiho Kagawa experienced a profound near-death awakening and made a remarkable recovery without chemotherapy. By following her intuition, often against well-meaning advice, she came to deeply realise through direct experience that human beings are multidimensional beings and that all existence is vibration.

The other transformed his life after overcoming alcohol dependency and now dedicates his path to guiding others through meditation, conscious breathwork, inner stillness, and reconnecting with their true source and inner knowing.

Together, Chiho and Craig offer a deeply authentic retreat experience grounded not only in knowledge but in lived transformation.

This retreat is for those who feel:

• Emotionally exhausted
• Disconnected from themselves
• Ready for positive change
• Recovering from life’s challenges and needing a reset
• Seeking purpose and deeper meaning
• Longing to reconnect with peace, vitality, and well-being

“It is never too late to be what you might have been.” — George Eliot

Guided by two practitioners who have personally journeyed through profound physical, emotional, and spiritual transformation, this retreat offers authentic tools for healing, renewal, and conscious living.

This is more than a retreat. Sacred Second Chance Retreat is a nurturing and transformative experience designed to help you reconnect with your inner wisdom, restore your energy, and awaken the healer within.

Your Facilitators

Chiho Kagawa

Healing Artist | Trauma Reset Therapist | Dip. Regression & Hypnotherapy

Chiho Kagawa is a healing artist who supports the reconnection with the voice of the soul and one’s inner life force. She integrates sound, voice, guided meditation, breathwork, hypnosis, energy work, and expressive arts to create spaces where people can deeply reconnect with their authentic selves.

For over 20 years, Chiho has worked internationally across festivals, events, and symposiums, performing and speaking through voice and harmonic instruments, with a particular focus on the rare crystal instrument known as the Armonica. She has also designed and facilitated workshops and retreats focused on mind-body wellness, including meditation and fasting practices.

In 2019, Chiho spent 50 days in palliative care following a terminal cancer diagnosis. Through a profound healing journey, including a near-death experience whilst overcoming bowel cancer and deep personal transformation, she made a remarkable recovery without undergoing chemotherapy. Through this lived experience, she came to realise that human beings are multidimensional beings and that all existence is vibration.

This journey also revealed to her the power of sound as a living force—one that can harmonise the body, emotions, and consciousness, guiding people back to their essential nature.

Today, Chiho continues to develop her unique work internationally, integrating sound, voice, body, and consciousness at the intersection of art, healing, and transformation.

Craig Harmer

Spiritual Advisor | Kriya Yogi | Meditation & Pranayama Teacher

Craig Harmer walks the path of a Kriya Yogi, Meditation and Pranayama Teacher, Vision Guidance Reader, and Divine Source Enhancement Healer. Above all, he sees himself as a companion for those seeking to remember their true essence.

His own awakening began in 2006 when meditation opened a doorway to stillness and inner transformation. Drawn by spirit to deepen this journey, Craig travelled to India in 2011, where the ancient practice of Pranayama Yoga expanded his breath, his awareness, and his ability to guide others into healing and balance.

Over the years, Craig has been blessed to weave together sacred practices—Divine Source Enhancement Healing and Vision Guidance Readings—that open pathways for release, clarity, and spiritual renewal.

With a gentle presence and an open heart, he creates spaces where others can reconnect to their soul, rediscover peace, and awaken to the light that has always lived within them.

The Armonica

The Armonica is a rare crystal instrument developed in the 18th century by Benjamin Franklin and later refined in Europe. Once performed in orchestras, both Mozart and Beethoven composed works for this remarkable instrument.

The Armonica is also historically associated with Dr Franz Mesmer, who used its sound in therapeutic settings. His work later contributed to the development of “mesmerism,” from which the word mesmerise is derived.

Its rich harmonic tones are said to induce deep relaxation and meditative states and are believed by many to support emotional well-being, energetic balance, and expanded states of awareness.

Sound Qigong

In ancient China, the voice was regarded as a powerful tool for harmonising the body, breath, and consciousness.

Traditional teachings associate specific sounds with particular organs of the body, including the lungs, kidneys, liver, heart, and spleen. By combining breath with these vibrations and directing them through the body, Sound Qigong has traditionally been used to support emotional well-being, energetic balance, and inner harmony.

During this retreat, Chiho will guide you through these ancient sound practices, helping you experience the restorative power of breath, vibration, and voice.

“Craig created a very sacred, safe and comfortable space for us to meditate, learn and transform. The breathwork techniques have proven invaluable in shutting off an overactive mind. I would highly recommend Craig as a retreat leader and Heartland Meadows as a wonderful venue for self-discovery.”
