Marahau Retreat, May 2021

The beauty of the Marahau Retreat begins on the lush journey there itself. The water, bush and feeling of familiarity welcome you and when you step into Anna’s haven - you arrive “home”. Home in yourself with a real sense of being somewhere you’re simply, meant to be. Anna builds on this energy, being a source of such a divine and warm energy herself.

Only at Marahau Retreat for a few days - my mini retreat, which I dubbed an in-treat was abundant in deep restful sleeps, nourishing wholesome vegan food and Anna’s intuitive narrative which guided both myself and a dear friend through a weekend that cracked us open and delivered what we didn’t know we needed. I am immensely grateful for the work Anna does and how much space she holds for you to unravel and build yourself up again, in. Thoughts, feelings and realisations surfaced through meditative work, sound bathing, eating, sleeping and being deeply cared for. It is not often we allow ourselves to be taken in and ‘held’ and do we rarely feel the safety to do so, but Anna’s warmth and grace allowed my mind to melt and to simply return to a state of being. Not worrying, not thinking too far ahead. But to just appreciate the beauty that is life. In this connected space, answers were able to surface from the deep and I was able to receive them.

Anna’s vibrational blueprint work really packaged up the work completed during my stay there. Thank you Anna for allowing me to share in the incredible space you’ve grown, eat at your table (which was a highlight of every day) and for stoking the fire within me. I look forward to returning to Marahau Retreat. Until then it will remain a compass I return to in my mind when my feet lift off the ground a little. I recommend Marahau Retreat to anyone wanting to rest, reconnect, replenish and re-evaluate.

Marahau Retreat, May 2021

My friend and I went on the Marahau Retreat together as our 30th birthday reset. We were just hoping to set a few new goals, meditate with Anna and enjoy the surroundings. What we ended up getting was soooo much more than that! It was a complete game changer, and I am so grateful to her. She is a true healer. Anna helped us to change our perspective on everything that was blocking us in our lives and taught us how to be accountable for our own happiness. When she did my spiritual blueprint, I was shocked at how moving it was. I have thought about it every day since and it has given my endeavours a whole deeper meaning. I highly recommend this retreat to anyone wanting to truly enrich their lives.

Private Retreat, April 2019

I spent five days on retreat with Anna at her very special property in Marahau. A truly restorative and peaceful place to begin, with her guidance, transforming my mindset and focus. Anna nourished my body with her phenomenal vegan cooking (note: I am not vegan)...serving me up the most delicious meals, then we worked together on my soul and I can’t quite express adequately here the shift I experienced which has profoundly changed my life. 

I offer the retreats Anna runs at Marahau the highest recommendation. Perfect for anyone who needs time out from what can often feel like a very dense and draining life who may feel like they have hit a wall, have questions and/or want to connect with the very powerful cosmic energies and guidance Anna has access to.

​Private Retreat, June 2018

Through her 1-1 retreats I have been able to explore, grow and shift into my higher state of being whilst being nurtured in the most awe inspiring of environments. Meditating in her yurt is true ecstasy and each gathering offered beautiful energies and insights to treasure deeply. The yummy vegan food, nourishing juices, light frequencies of mantra and crystal singing bowls are just some examples of what awaits you on retreat. The quiet down time I had to contemplate was a gift as I found my creative energies waiting to burst forth with such enthusiasm and power. This was  all due to Anna! Thanks to these experiences,  I am now in the middle of setting up my own  business. All of it came about through my 1-1 retreats with her.

CLFE Dynamic Group Retreat, Castle Hill, Nov 2020

Dear Anna,

I’m still in my retreat bubble - and I don’t feel like coming out of it any time soon.

I had such a wonderful time. I loved my room and my bed. I loved the company of my tribe, even though I felt so far out of my comfort Zone before arriving because I had to do ‘people’. I loved meeting up with S---- again and finding out that O---- just lives up the road from me! 

I loved the opportunity to practice CLFE and give the practice so much time. I loved that the synergy of the group made it easier for me to work with the CLFE. I loved having the Temple space, and the meditations. 

I loved having a chef there, and him doing food so we didn’t have to. 

I loved the music and dancing. Of course, I loved being back at Castle Hill - who wouldn’t!


A big thank you to you from my heart.

A Retreat with Anna Blue Star is like no other. Anna guides you on the most beautiful spiritual journeys that simply flow with the energies. These blissful meditations are supported by Ascended Masters, divas and guides delivering their wisdom from across the realms. They bring deep and powerful insights, opening you to a new awareness that takes you to higher planes. Anna’s deep spiritual knowing is balanced with much laughter and an easy lightness that uplifts the spirit and expands the heart.

It takes place in the protected and sacred space of the yurt, a truly inviting and supportive place surrounded by the nature of Marahau, on the edge of the Abel Tasman National Park. Nature’s magic surrounds you and is always close at hand; with walks on the crystalline beaches or visits to the pristine healing waters of Riwaka Resurgence.
And then there is the constant replenishment of body and soul sustained through the nourishing food lovingly prepared by Anna throughout the retreat. Why did I ever leave?

Mini and Private Retreat Participant, May 2017

Ecstatic drumbeats greet me as I walk in. Resting Buddhas adorn prayerful nooks, fluffy sheepskins beckon me into cosy corners. A feast of colourful vegetables with dollops of hummus is waiting on the table for me. My favourite green pea soup is warming on the stove. Homemade seed crackers are piled up ready for crunching. I feel so completely delighted and nourished.

Our mini urban retreat picks up where our big solo week had left off 6 weeks earlier. Deva Premal is overlaid with beautiful long notes from Anna's crystal singing bowls - it helps me shift into a lighter state. Anna anchors the energy at such a deep level allowing me to fly the higher frequencies. She makes seemingly effortless connections between worlds, opening portals and passageways, so that I can journey further and further each time.
I recommend working with Anna to anyone who is serious about making the most of their precious time here and is ready for major transformations in their life. For me the process facilitates rapid and meaningful change through the dissolving of blocks, peeling away of old layers and a magnetising of my highest potentials.

​5 night Group Retreat, Nov 2016

I have sat down many times over the years to write a testimonial for Anna  and I have always felt constricted by mere words on a page, but I  will try.  

I first met Anna in 2009 when I attended her 'Develop Your Intuition' course in Wellington. It was through this wondrous gate that I tentatively took my first steps on a spiritual path that would change my perception of myself,  the world, and indeed the universe, forever more.  
Thereafter I attended Anna's meditation evenings in Wellington and have been lucky enough to experience two group retreats hosted by Anna. The most recent retreat was at her beautiful property in Marahau and it was an absolute delight for the body, mind and spirit. The retreat was pitched perfectly for the group and the rhythm of activities, qigong, and  meditation sessions was just right. The accommodation and catering was exceptional. I have come back to Wellington refreshed and invigorated and am back on the best path for the life I wish to lead.  
But a little more on Anna. Anna has many gifts which she openly shares with those souls who are drawn to her. No matter what the interaction is,  Anna ensures that you are treated with the utmost compassion and respect. Her work ethic and service-oriented approach to her clients is combined with a vast knowledge and highly evolved spiritual insight. This is a mighty combination and one that has allowed me to develop and evolve so much further than I ever thought possible. In addition to all of her spiritual connections and gifts, Anna is still very much a 'real' person and her lightness of being amidst all of the 3D density of this world is contagious. You will find yourself smiling even within the briefest of interactions with Anna. It just happens.  
Thanks to my time with Anna, I have weathered some of life's most heart-breaking storms with a wealth of 'spiritual tools' to see me through the darkest hours. For that, my family and I are eternally 
grateful. 
I am honoured and humbled to have Anna as a teacher, a mentor, and most importantly, a friend. Thank you, Anna. The world is a better place for having you here. And we are vastly better people for having you as our guide.

Private Retreat, October 2016

I gave myself and my soul a beautiful journey when I did a retreat with Anna in October.

Each day of my 7 days was designed for me personally as I chose a one on one retreat. I had no idea what we were going to do, it just felt perfect…certainly spirit sped things up for us!
I have known Anna for over 20 years and knew it would be an amazing time, however I could not have foreseen the journey we were taken on.

Starting each nurturing day with a yummy organic juice left at my door at 7.30am.. I usually woke early as the sun rise is amazing, I watched the dew lift and the beautiful country side come awake with the bay just a 10 minute walk away. The day would start with movement and Qi gong and anything that came after that was magic… a meditation that became a channeling of Kwan Yin, Serapis Bey, Buddha and so much more….Anna took us on an amazing journey each time.
I was nurtured with divine food and the quiet time to contemplate. On day two morning we walked out onto the beach below the Abel Tasman national park, we did Qi gong on the beach found a big crystal [yes on the beach] to take back to the yurt, meditated on the rocks Anna has named ‘The Temple’ and watched beautiful whimsical, silken creamy white Air Sylphs dance for us in a cove under the national park.. Oh yes! We had also been given an activation whilst meditating and this was only the beginning!
Your soul will create the perfect journey for you to experience when you are in Anna’s presence! Divine! Divine! Divine! Thank you Miss Anna.

With so much love Miss Roslyn

Private Retreat, November 2015

Love, love Loved my retreat. Each time I return to your special part of the world, it continues to shift energetically in such amazing ways. All of it was special and will be held as a significant part of my journey in life, giving  me so much to work with.  The meditations - sublime, each one holding  divine different spaces - offering such beautiful energies and insights to be with. The healing - thankyou.  I keep recognising to just rest as I need to, as it is very ongoing.

The landscape and skyscape are wondrous places to be a part of and daily walk in, with the bird life sending  great text to life.  Going to Riwaka Resurgence  together  was truly splendorous - nature was truly revealing of  itself in ways I will treasure - I felt spoilt and great joy.

All this I know is what you are so masterful at.  Gently creating the space and holding  the energy for others to safely experience such wondrous ways of connecting, communing and being in this wonderful world.  I am excited that always there are more ways to explore, grow and shift. Your retreat gave me such a unique, nurturing opportunity for self, I am blessed for the opportunity.

I thank you from my heart, I thank you from my soul.  Thank you Anna.
Much love and light Kaz Mac x
