Our courses are taught by Alison Pothier or in-house practitioners who have been sponsored by Inside Out Retreats following intensive training under the Academy of the Inner Self Personal Development Program. Organised under five areas of focus: Intuition, Expression, Energy, Emotion and Aspiration, all courses can be taken independently or as an structured program for personal development. If you are wondering where to begin, we recommend starting with the foundation courses in Intuitive Development and Intuitive Healing as these set the framework for all other courses.
Intuition is our navigator, without it we lose our sense of direction. Working with your own personal intuitive style and capabilities, these courses help you to renew your trust and belief in your sense of self and the world around you.
To fully express ourselves in our lives, we free our inner voice to share through a language of its very own. Working with creativity, these courses offer a means to unleash your authentic and inspired self.
All that lies unexpressed within us, is still expressed through us energetically. Learning to sense, understand, and engage with your energy as well as your energetic connection with others, these courses help promote balance and wellness in your life and in the lives of all those you 'touch'.
The greater the level of intuitive development work, the greater the need to understand how to engage with and integrate emotion. These courses help you to discover that true freedom is arrived at by working from the inside out.
When we are in touch with our aspirations, we are on the path to inspiration. These courses help you to remember, reflect, and reconnect with the 'who' that you are, the 'what' that you want for yourself, and the 'dream' within you as you listen to and work with your most authentic aspirations.
Working with “Intuition”
Intuition is the navigator, without it we lose our sense of direction. To intuit is to know from within. It is an inner knowing or awareness that combines the senses but is also beyond them. We have in every one of us, the ability to intuit more than we can rationally know, see, feel, hear or touch. In every one of us, we have a sixth sense, some call it a ‘sick’ sense, some call it ‘gut instinct’, but we know it universally as intuition, because it is simply what we know, from within. To learn to trust our intuition, our inner knowing, is to learn to trust our self, our inspired self.

The Dreamer Within Intuition and the Wisdom of Dreams
Are you a dreamer in the nights or a dreamer in the day? No matter the time, no matter the way, the dreamer in you has something to say.
After a restless night of active dreaming, those of us who dream at night carry the emotion of the dream state into our daily lives and practices if we miss the opportunity to connect with and understand our dreams. Those of us who dream during the day, either through visualisation or daydreaming, carry the emotion of the dream state into our daily lives if we miss the opportunity to connect with and understand our visions. Dreams hold the key to our deepest sentiments and the path to our intuitive self.
This workshop is an introduction to working with visualization and dreams. A ‘workout’ for the intuitive within you, this course helps you to access your intuition at a much deeper level connecting you to your own personal intuitive language and symbology for practical application.
Expanding intuitive awareness, this course forms part of the Intuitive Healing Practitioner’s certification and the Intuitive Guidance Practitioner Certification.

The greater the level of intuitive development work, the greater the need to understand how to engage with and integrate emotion. These workshops combine to form a two-day series dedicated to emotional intuition and emotional freedom.
Sticks & Stones Identifying emotional triggers and neutralising the impact of "labels"
Sticks and stones may break my bones, but who said names would never hurt me? Working with name-calling, labels, branding, and the nature of all that offends, this workshop is dedicated to the promotion of emotional freedom through the integration and release of all that could ever hurt us. Releasing bully-victim consciousness, this workshop turns your world (and the world around you) inside-out empowering individuals to move from self-awareness to laughter.
During this powerful workshop you will gain valuable tools to create a heightened sense of emotional balance and perspective on the world around you. It is a playful day of emotional development aiming to replace a frown with a smile where sticks and stones would have in the past broken bones!
This course is combined with “Dancing with my Shadow” in a weekend dedicated to emotional freedom. It forms part of the Intuitive Healing Practitioner’s certification as well as the Intuitive Guidance Practitioner Certification.
Dancing with my Shadow Exploring the beliefs defining your personal law of attraction
A day of personal reckoning and emotional freedom, this workshop focuses on engaging with the ‘shadow self’ – the belief systems that lay hidden within our hearts and minds that play out in the world around us. This workshop provides a framework for understanding how to work with the shadow to release emotional projection and create personal accountability for improving the world around you. Promoting empowerment, this workshop inspires change through personal transformation.
Working with intuition is likened to inviting a great flashlight into our soul. The greater the light and the higher the vibration of the work we do, the more we give way to the things which linger in the shadow of our existence. In order to create more positive life experience and expand intuitive capabilities, one can embrace the dance with the shadow self. This workshop provides tools and insight for engaging positively in your dance – your reflection in the mirror of the world around you and your ability to create peace by simply smiling back at it.
