Some of the Individuals I’ve Helped Transform Their Lives
I found ange by pure luck and what a find! I had a near death experience in Mallorca 5 years ago which then lead into undiagnosed ptsd for over 2 yrs. I saw an EMDR psychologist to treat this which helped me a great deal and get me back on track a lot but just couldn’t get back to feeling 100%.
On top of this a work injury which lead into constant nerve pain for over 12 months in my arm and elbow joint. My body has had so much to deal with, so much pain, stress and anxiety, sleep anxiety, which then lead into insomnia and severe sleeping issues, not to mention the mental toll which is probably the biggest.
I just couldn’t get to be fully recovered from what l have been dealt with for the last 5 years and now after seeing Ange he has turned everything around for me.
After having his treatments l am back to feeling amazing again, I actually didn’t think this was even possible. Finding Ange and having our one on one sessions once a week for the sound healing over the last 6 weeks is like the most amazing thing to happen!
I can’t believe the transformation and what has happened to me in this short time, l am stress free, no anxiety, so relaxed, more positive, have a much better outlook on life and generally more positive outlook on everything, he has switched something in my head. There is nothing worse than being in pain constantly, it’s debilitating and defeats you, no matter how strong you are. It was only after 2 sessions l started feeling like a weight had been lifted and was feeling lighter and much better mentally.
I can’t thank Ange enough, l believe he has been the final piece of my jigsaw puzzle to putting and getting me back to a better, happier, pain free, anxiety free and positive lifestyle.
I will be forever grateful to Ange for this and the treatments he does, l can’t recommend him enough!
Cam
The sound baths have been life changing for me. Looking back at my first bath, I was a nervous wreck. 6 months later, it’s incredible how different I feel and am as a person. The 60mins sessions are great, but the 90mins are really where it’s it! I have adhd and have always struggled to meditate or to really connect with myself. But thanks to Ange’s incredible talents, I have finally been able to.
CHARLOTTE
After working with Ange I have felt physically better with the added benefit of having a strategy to regulate my nervous system which has over a life time of fight or flight existence hung onto trapped energy. If you are at your wits end with pain or perhaps it's something else you are feeling is a bit off give it a go.
MARG
I highly recommend for everyone and especially if you want to take your energy work, self-healing, meditation, inner work, whatever you want to call it to the next level.
Authentic, loving, non-toxic and good/high vibrations always here with Ange’s work.
AMBER
Do you wake up tired before the day even starts?
Overstimulated. On edge. Already bracing for what’s ahead?
Just trying to get through, not actually living?
Wondering where your spark went?
Say GOODBYE to Stress & HELLO to Energy, Balance & Safety!
We understand the struggle. Breaking out of stress or survival mode isn’t about trying harder, it's clearing the stored patterns in the body and energy that are creating that.
This retreat is designed as a structured reset to help you release stored stress, reconnect to your body, and rebuild steady, sustainable energy and health.
Here's what happens when you don't address the root cause
Without addressing healing at the level of the mind, body, and energy, you’ll remain stuck in the same stress cycles, repeating the same patterns and wondering why your reality never truly changes.
HERE’S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU DON’T ADDRESS THE ROOT OF THE CYCLE:
You wake up tired, no matter how much sleep you get, and you rely on caffeine just to make it through the day.
Stress becomes your norm, leading to burnout, brain fog, and emotional overwhelm.
No matter how much self work you do and how many specialists you see the same patterns keep repeating different circumstances, same tension underneath.
You feel disconnected from your body, unsure of what it really needs to thrive.
Digestive issues, inflammation, and hormonal imbalances quietly chip away at your energy and mood.
Relationships, work, and personal goals suffer as your physical and mental health take a back seat.
Worst of all, you start to believe that feeling happy vibrant, balanced, and energized just isn’t possible for you.
Hey, I'm Ange... and I've been there too.
I know what it feels like to wake up already EXHAUSTED ANXIOUS & BURTOUT, in a body that doesn't feel like your own, push through the day running on EMPTY, and wonder if this is just how life is supposed to be.
IT’S FRUSTRATING. IT’S LONELY.
And it makes you question if lasting change is even possible.
But here’s what I discovered…
the problem isn’t you
The problem is the endless cycle of short-term solutions that IGNORE the bigger picture of your well-being.
Once I found a balanced, sustainable approach and shifted from chasing quick fixes to understanding my body’s signals, and how to address them everything began to change.
And that’s exactly what the RESET retreat is designed to give you.
A clear path. A balanced approach. Real, lasting results.
Now, I’m here to share this approach to healing with you because I know it can transform your life just like it did mine.

Pennyroyal Otways Retreat
Only 90 mins from Melbourne
THE LOCATION
Just 90 minutes from Melbourne and only 15 minutes inland from Lorne and the beaches of the Great Ocean Road, this retreat is set within the quiet expanse of the Otways.
Surrounded by 60 acres of rolling farmland, rainforest pockets, lakes and native bushland, the property offers panoramic valley views, long timber verandahs and cosy log fires with no traffic, no city noise, and space to truly exhale.
Kangaroos graze at sunset, parrots move through the trees, and the only sounds at night are frogs on the lake and the occasional owl calling through the valley. A meandering creek runs through the land, and hidden paths lead to quiet corners perfect for reflection or stillness.
It’s countryside immersion with the ocean just minutes away. The perfect balance of forest, farmland and coastline.
A place to step out of the noise and return to yourself.
Step Out of Survival Mode.
Step Back Into Yourself.
SOUND HEALING & BIOFIELD TUNING
Through intentional sound healing and frequency work, we gently clear stored emotional charge held in the body and biofield. This helps release subtle stress imprints that keep you looping the same tension patterns and creates space for calm and clarity to return.
SOMATIC RELEASE
Chronic stress lives in the body's connective tissue called the fascia. Through daily guided somatic movement and body-based release, you’ll safely release stored tension and allow your system to soften and heal.
PATTERN REWIRING
Many of your stress responses are unconscious loops shaped by past experiences. Through structured emotional processing and subconscious awareness, you’ll learn how to interrupt these patterns and create healthier responses moving forward.
CONNECTION & COMMUNITY
Healing accelerates in safe, grounded connection. Through held group integration and co-regulated experiences, you’ll feel supported without pressure or performance, rebuilding trust in both yourself and others.
RETURN TO SAFETY
When your body has been in survival mode for too long, calm can feel unfamiliar. This retreat gently guides your system back into steadiness, helping you shift from constant vigilance to grounded presence.
REAL-LIFE INTEGRATION
This isn’t a temporary escape. You’ll leave with practical, repeatable tools that support emotional regulation and sustainable energy so the shifts you create here continue long after you return home.
SAFETY
Before anything can shift, your nervous system needs to feel safe.
We begin by slowing everything down — grounding practices, gentle somatic movement, guided opening circles, and immersive sound journeys designed to settle your system. You’ll disconnect from external noise, soften the constant stimulation, and begin rebuilding trust in your body.
When the body feels safe, it finally stops bracing.
This is where the reset begins.
RELEASE
Once safety is established, we gently guide you into releasing what’s been stored.
Through daily somatic and fascial work, sound healing, emotional processing, forgiveness practices, and the fire ceremony, you’ll begin unwinding stress patterns that have been sitting in the body for years. We work with the mind, the physical body, and the energy field — not just surface symptoms.
This isn’t forced catharsis.
It’s structured, supported release.
ACTIVATION
In this phase, we move into embodied activation, intention setting, identity work, relational exercises and movement-based integration such as ecstatic dance. You’re not becoming someone new; you’re stepping back into the version of you that feels steady, confident, and aligned. When your nervous system feels safe, your reality reorganises.
This is where you consciously choose what comes next.
INTEGRATION
Transformation means nothing without integration. We close by grounding everything into practical, repeatable tools you can use in real life, daily regulation practices, awareness techniques, embodied rituals, and structured action steps. Through nature immersion and final integration circles, you stabilise the shifts so you return home calm, clear, and equipped.
Meet your facilitators
Ange Monitto
I’m Ange Monitto, a Melbourne-based sound healing practitioner supporting people who are navigating stress, burnout, chronic fatigue and emotional overwhelm. My journey it began during my own collapse into survival mode. In my late 20s, despite a full social life and constant movement, I was battling chronic illness severe fatigue, anxiety, recurring illness and burnout. After a sudden health crash which left me bed-bound with heart palpitations, brain fog and debilitating exhaustion for months countless medical tests returned “normal” results but I knew something deeper was wrong.
What I came to understand was that my body hadn’t failed me it had been overwhelmed for years. Stress, emotional suppression and constant pushing had embedded themselves physically. Treating symptoms wasn’t enough. The root patterns in my nervous system, my body, and my energy field needed to be addressed. Discovering sound healing became a turning point creating a release and calm my body hadn’t felt in years, and opening the door to real recovery.
I went on to earn my Diploma in Sound Therapy, train in Tibetan singing bowls in India, and deepen my understanding of how stored stress and trauma live in the body. Today, I create grounded, structured spaces where people can step out of survival mode and learn how to reset safely and sustainably. This retreat is built from lived experience designed to offer the safety, clarity and depth I once needed myself.
Jack Lawton
I’m Jack Lawton, and my work bridges science, embodiment, and lived experience.
With a Bachelor of Science in Physiology and Psychology, I’ve long been fascinated by how stress shapes the body - from fascia and breath patterns to nervous system regulation and behaviour. That understanding became personal when I realised I had lost access to my own expressive body.
Through years of performance, pressure, and chronic activation, I became disconnected from parts of myself. Rebuilding that connection meant returning to my voice, somatic practice, and play - learning how to feel safe in expression again. I also had to consciously develop emotional processing skills that weren’t modelled for me growing up, seeking out education and training to understand how to regulate, integrate, and work with emotion rather than suppress it.
I’ve trained in Human Garage fascial maneuvers, Les Mills Group Fitness Instruction, and as a Singing Athlete Vocal Coach, and I hold Reiki Master certification. At The Reset, I guide the somatic and physical layers of the work - helping you reconnect with your body, restore regulation, and rebuild trust in yourself from the inside out.
