We are very proud and excited to present for the
first time ever four very special spiritual days at the Ballyoncree Animal Sanctuary led by
Billie Dean and Andrew Einspruch.

Easter is traditionally a time of recuperation and rejuvenation. We are offering a small group of people a chance to replenish their spirit in the beautiful valley which is Ballyoncree. This four-day rustic retreat is a time of renewal for the soul, and encourages a much deeper understanding of animals’ sentience and spirituality, teaches how to be better animal guardians, and helps move you into a more sacred way of being with yourself and the entire natural world.

• Learn to communicate with animals and nature.
• Open up your intuitive, psychic and creative abilities through a variety processes which are fun, gentle and restorative.
• Learn sacred wisdom teachings, including tools for longevity, relationships, healing, manifestation, and living through earth changes.
• Meditate with the eagles on the mountain.
• Enjoy sacred storytelling, songs, drumming and journeying around the evening fire.
• Spend time in nature learning to be still, and understanding the messages from the trees, wind, fairies and others of the natural world.
  Interact with the Ballyoncree rescue animals.
• Special Bonus: the first eight people who register receive a one-hour, one-on-one private session with Billie.

Give yourself the gift of time –
time for yourself and your own development.

About Billie Dean and Andrew Einspruch

Billie Dean is Australia’s foremost animal communicator. She was born with the ability to communicate with animals and nature, but it wasn’t until her early 20s that she began developing her gift into what it is today. Billie has practised professional interspecies communication for two decades, and also works as a professional writer and filmmaker.

Both she and her husband, author, comic and filmmaker Andrew Einspruch, studied with various elders and shamans from different cultures, were initiated into the Seneca Wolf Clan Teaching Lodge by Grandmother Kitty, and adopted by a Maori tribe. Billie is also a member of the Order of Bards, Ovates and Druids. She has received the Munay-Ki – the luminous codes for the new human – during her study with Inka Elders and shaman Alberto Villoldo, PHD.

Billie and Andrew’s path is one of connecting to the sacred, reawakening ancient gifts, lighting the path of the heart for a new humanity, and treating all of life with reverence. They teach in the old tradition of storytelling and practical experience.

Billie and Andrew also run Ballyoncree Animal Sanctuary, a holistic forever home. They are strong supporters of animal rights and are dedicated to promoting ethics, integrity, compassion and commitment in humans working for and living with animals.
