Welcome to the Gaian Oasis
We're busy renovating a tired old finca in Alicante, Spain with the aim of turning it into an ecotherapy and animal-assisted therapy centre for people struggling with depression, anxiety, overwhelm and burnout.♥
Join us on our journey today.
We’re creating a sacred space for lost and wounded Souls to find sanctuary from the chaos in the world, and find their own unique pathway to feeling healthy, happy and whole.
Who we are
I’m Maria and I’m married to my best friend and Soulmate Mac. After struggling with some mental and physical health issues we made the decision in 2015 to move from the UK to Spain. We moved lock, stock and barrel with 5 of our 6 kids, 5 dogs and 2 ponies.
We’ve always dreamed of renovating a property and finally we have the opportunity. But this isn’t just about turning a house into a home. We want to create a sustainable, self sufficient farm that we can share with others who want to heal through connection with nature.
Curious? Follow our journey to find out more.
We weave ecotherapy, herbalism and animal-assisted therapy with ceremonial practices and sacred circles, creating transformative experiences that restore self esteem, build confidence and help you find inner peace.
About our mission
We want to work with people who suffer from depression, anxiety, overwhelm and loneliness, no matter what the root cause.
Certified in a variety of therapies, we want to offer complementary approaches for people who are seeking more than just therapy and medication.
Our work revolves around connection, community, creativity and compassion, helping people heal their wounds through working and playing in nature.
Find out more about the property, the residents and our work over on our YouTube channel.
At the Gaian Oasis, we believe true healing happens when we reconnect with nature, animals, ourselves and each other.

“Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength that will endure as long as life lasts.
There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of nature – the assurance that dawn comes after night, and spring after winter.”
Rachel Carson

Can’t get to Spain to visit us?
No problem!
Whether you’re here for depression recovery, anxiety support, sustainable living inspiration, or just because something about this resonates – welcome to the Gaian family.
We love creating sacred spaces for lost, wounded, or just plain exhausted Souls to heal and thrive.
With that in mind, we’ve created The Gaian Oasis Online Community so you can join us from wherever you are in the world.
What you’ll find in the online community: –
We’ll be sharing our journey to building the Gaian Oasis – everything from the renovation of the gardens to introducing the animals and wildlife that we share the finca with.
We’re going to be learning all about sustainable living and how it affects our mental and physical health.
There’ll be lots of stories, tips, tools and even a generous sprinkle of Gaian Magick to inspire you.
And we’ll share details of upcoming events that you’ll have VIP access to as a member of the community.
This isn’t just about OUR journey building a Gaian sanctuary.
We hope that you’ll be inspired to create your very own Gaian Oasis, wherever you are.
Maybe you’ll do it alone, just with your family or maybe you’ll be inspired to create something amazing with a community of like minded people.
Creating a Gaian Oasis is about choosing to live differently – creating connection with what really matters and learning how to break free from the things that hold us back from feeling healthy, happy and whole.
The society we live in is directly contributing to a collective tsunami of depression. We’ll explore how we can change the world through collaboration instead of competition, compassion versus capitalism, people and planet over profit and patriarchy, inclusivity, equality and decolonisation.
We want to make space for what’s important to you, to see your tips, your gardens, your animal companions and your recommendations for making the world a better place.
How much does it cost to join the community?
NOTHING! It’s totally free! So come on over and join us for a chat today.
