Amsterdam is such a great city. Everything is 5 minutes by bike and the Dutch do everything with style and efficiency. Such a beautiful city to explore with the family.

Sweet memories popped up on my phone this morning from our very first retreat together back in 2019. It was the moment we knew, deep in our bones, that this was what we were meant to be doing.

That week brought three auspicious visits from 🐍 &, during our beautiful outdoors closing practice, a ceremonial fly-over by three black cockatoos… messengers that always seem to arrive at poignant moments, with a very felt sense of blessing, encouragement, & sacred confirmation.

Our beloved teacher, Anandji @theanandmehrotra , told us from the very beginning that our power was in sharing together. How right he was.

Thank you to the beautiful souls who were part of this beginning, and to all the beings who’ve joined us along the journey since. We look forward to many more sweet moments in community, finding our unique way, both individually and together. 💛🙏

After a few days of non-stop surfing, today was a magical adventure to Piedras Blancas national park. Dolphins, snorkelling, jungle, scarlet macaws and exotic organic food.

Wow! What a group we had at this retreat – such beautiful people fostering incredible transformations. 🌿✨

We booked this retreat a year in advance, knowing it would coincide with a super moon, and boy, did it deliver in its intensity. 🌕

Thank you to everyone who was on board. It was truly a roller coaster of ups, downs, and powerful changes. 💫

Master I am not, willing to learn… I am. Just completed 5 days without food at a detox retreat to reset a healthier physical and emotional baseline and unlock my full potential.

I’ve been on a bit of a spirituality journey over the past 10 years but I’m also about to start a hectic filming schedule of ‘Deal or No Deal’ Season 2 so thought I better get myself in the best shape possible with 5 days of fasting, ice baths, meditation, workshops, forest walks, yoga, sauna and swims at the incredible @ohedetoxretreat to slow down my mind, release thoughts/emotions and behaviours that no longer serve me and reclaim my body, mind and spirit.

Sounds pretty woo-woo I know but sometimes you’ve gotta clear the shit out of your head and your body (literally) to reach your happiest, healthiest, highest and best. I ain’t easy! But it’s so worth it.

Fasting has tonnes of benefits, replaces damaged cells, fixes poor gut bacteria (linked to brain function), prevents cancer, improves mood, reduces inflammation, eliminates fatigue & brain fog and repairs damaged bits and literally takes the trash out of ya body from the stress of our lifestyles built up from food, alcohol, experiences and old emotional beliefs etc.

Enormous hugs to the kind, intelligent and inspiring mentors @drmatthewbourke, @deanabourke & @campbellwilson_ for expertly guiding us through 5 days of no food with so much learning, laughs and wonderful progress. Just what I needed. On a big full super-moon too just to lock-in that full mind, body & spirit transformation.

To all the crew with me ‘in the trenches’, thanks for being so open, supportive when I struggled and being just the right people I needed, at just the right time. Love u.

Look, I’m faaaaar from perfect. I’ve lived life large, abused my body and made lots of mistakes. But there’s always room for improvement and it’s never too late to find a better way of doing things, so life simply… continues to stay fun.

Back to posting about fart jokes, race cars and badly framed selfies 😜

Big love,
Gd

The most special people in my life!!! You are my reason to celebrate… 🙌

Just so I have an excuse to get as many of you as possible in one room at the same time!!!

I am absolutely blessed to have so many beautiful friends! I feel loved, supported, nurtured and cared for! You are my rock and my universe! I’m forever grateful for long standing connections and new ones that feel like many life times together!

This year is very very special! My intentions were bravery, vulnerability and receiving! And oh boy, the courage to be vulnerable and authentic creates the yummiest, heartwarming, soul filling relationship ever that gives so much purpose!

You showered me with the most beautiful messages, attention and gifts! And for the first time ever I am able to receive deeply all the love without trying to deflect or feel uncomfortable. It actually lands, I can feel it in my bones and it feels warm & fuzzy & amazing ☺️🥰

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! 🙏❤️❤️❤️

I love you all so much!!! 😘😘😘

The best wish was ‘to many more bdays to come’!!! So true! My life is so full and reach already, all I need is keep living 🤩💫💫💫

Thank you for 3 days of celebrations!!! 🥳🥳🥳
