For me Andrea has been a true mentor on my quest in finding my true self. She is one of a kind with so much wisdom, love and compassion and a deep knowledge of various healing modalities. Every technique is different as are people s needs in their life journey. I had reiki, reiki training, aguahara and a wonderful retreat which have all taught me beautiful lessons and helped in letting go that which was no longer needed.
​
All i can say is that whichever modality you choose, Andrea will gently guide you in finding the answers to your questions, doubts, fears or emotions which truly lie within each and every one of us. Her techniques and gentleness will stay present in your heart. This is a true gift to give oneself and to the collective <3

A true spiritual teacher and healer teaches you that you are your own Guru and shows you how to access and utilize your power. This is what Andrea has done for me. She embodies authenticity and unconditional love. She has patiently and lovingly shown me how to make space for myself and come back into my own truth, how to deal with past traumas, how to shift my perspective when needed and most importantly, how to unconditionally love myself.

~ Alissa, USA


​One of the deepest retreats on spiritual growth. I recommend the retreat for soul connection, experiencing the Self and the voices of the Universe. For some it may be unusual that there is no fixed schedule with teaching content and strategies. But it felt that especially this freedom allows access to yourself and to your deepest emotions. For me it was possible to deeply connect in silence empowered by nature and playful guidance.
Andrea as a guide offers a big variety of healings that are naturally dedicated to your needs – different as it happens in other retreats. Often the focus is on yoga, detoxification or sharing with others. Schedules and big groups often limit progressing your own path – this experience was very much focused and pushed me to go deep and deeper. Andrea gives you room for what you need most in your current life phase. I felt the positive energies of the island, the special atmosphere in the house and lived and enjoyed healing processes.
Andrea has created a really special place with her presence and abilities. She is so warm and open and loving. Her intuition impressed me. She feels exactly what your soul desires. Her energy is influencing. She is authentic in what spirituality really means. The experience with Andrea was very mind-opening and I felt home.

~ Anom

Sometimes in life you meet someone for a reason, persons of great wisdom to teach you, persons of deep passion to become a better and loving person, you meet persons to guide you, if it seems you are lost. Or just a as a dear friend, giving you friendship and makes you feel you are not alone. Andrea is that all for me, her spiritual teachings makes me feel one with our universe.

~ Rene, Netherlands

A wholistic approach to life transformation.
The farm house is ancient but has an expansive feeling where Andrea leads in a calm and gentle manner. Nothing is forced. Exercises, and activities are offered and one can participate at the level at which they choose. Life experiences and the different ways of viewing our spiritual selves are welcomed. I am a beginner to yoga practice and eating vegan , and it was an excellent introduction to both practices, that I intend to begin introducing into my lifestyle. The meals were simple but hearty and I never felt hungry. Sincere thanks to Andrea and her community of women who are offering their gifts and authentic selves, so that other women can participate and grow. I also loved the cats. Especially Blackie who would be in my room and keep me company during siesta.

~ Janette, Canada

I had Aguahara treatment with Andrea. This is a deep emotional experience that is difficult to express in words. Mystical. You go beyond the framework of this world where there are no words and the physical world. Only pure energy stays. Thank you Andrea for this journey with all my heart.

~ Dag, Poland


I have recently completed a Reiki level 3 course with Andrea, having previously done levels 1 and 2 with her. It has changed my life for the better, and my self-confidence has increased immeasurably. Andrea has so much wisdom and experience, and such insight into life, and her enthusiasm permeates through to everyone she teaches. I am looking forward to maintaining a friendship with her, and I know I will benefit from her knowledge. She came into my life at a time when I was looking for spiritual progress, and boy, did she deliver!! Thank you Andrea,. And if anyone is not sure about following up on her courses or her meetings, hesitate no longer, just do it. I guarantee you will benefit in so many ways.

~ Jackie, France

When you feel like it's all a bit hectic and a little too much to handle, or if you just want to know yourself better on another level, I recommend that you find your way to Andrea Ridgway. Somehow I ended up on a beautiful retreat in Gozo with her. Andrea is the most in tune, sensitive person I have ever met and things have began to change in my life since I met her. A lovely place to take some nurturing time out and you can be sure that what you need at that time will be there for you. A great experience to slow down, look within, be aware of what you need to let go of and what you want to embrace. 
Andrea Ridgway, I don't know how to put in words what your nurturing, awareness and wise words meant to me. Thank you xx. Such a pleasure to spend time with you


~ Heather, Ireland

I've had to travel over 3,000 miles and 15+ hours of traveling to take part in this retreat. Andrea is such a mindful, caring, genuine and thoughtful host! Her entire team- Petra (Vegan chef) and Antje (Yoga teacher) are experts, warm and passionate about what they do. The space is beautiful and everything listed in that program was accounted for. Every euro that I've paid for this Cooking, Healing and Yoga Retreat was well worth it! I can summarize the whole experience in just one word...EXCEPTIONAL! A Magnitude of Gratitude to Andrea...thank you forever!

~ Amira, Lebanon

Anything and everything I can say about Andrea will not be enough. She encourages me to follow my path. She is helping me to heal, with lot of love and kindness, she respects my own rythme. I know she knows more than she is telling me, because she is able to wait for the right moment. Since years ago I knew I wanted to be Reiki healer and it was not until I found her that I decided to start the process. She knows very well what she is doing, she is very helpful and aware person, with lot of love. One more time, anything and everything I can say about her is not enough and I recommend to everyone who want to heal and work in their own development to get in touch with her.

~ Vanessa, Spain

Andrea has the most beautiful, welcoming and calm home. It’s a space where I felt relaxed, a place where I could be myself, where I could just sit, read and breathe and simply just have the time to be in the present moment and to remember and embrace just how that really feels.
From yoga down by the sea and inside of a wonderful cave, to an energy healing session, playing games, learning how to make delicious treats and eating amazing and nutritious meals which were always made with so much love.
Andrea is the most powerful, beautiful, inspirational and wonderful woman I have met so far in my journey. Throughout my time at the retreat Andrea was always by me side, there to listen to me and guide me. She gave me her time and patience which I greatly admire and which I am so very grateful for.
Without travelling to Gozo and going on this yoga retreat, I would have never met Andrea. But I just knew in my heart that I was being called to go there, there was a reason and honestly from the bottom of my heart I can say that Andrea has truly changed my perspective on life. She has taught me the importance of just being myself, to appreciate myself more and the simple importance of always remaining true to myself no matter what as well as much more! I would not be where I am today and feel the way I do today without Andrea.
There is so much I could share, so many words I can express but I know now in my life that I need to think more about myself and what makes me happy and to pursue this and make it happen. I have also learnt how pure and simple experiences in life can bring so much happiness and clarity to our minds, our worlds. Even just sitting on the wall beside the pool overlooking the sea brought so much joy to my heart and I was finally feeling as if I was at peace with myself.
I write this review with a tear in my eye and I ask you to please support Andrea and go on a retreat whilst visiting the beautiful island of Gozo. It has been a truly emotional and transformational journey for me and one thing for sure is that, if I had the chance to go back and do the retreat all again, I would in a heartbeat, it was my first time and I can assure you that it certainly will not be the last!

~ Rebecca, Scotland 


We seek in so many ways to be spiritual… but as Andrea said ”We are not human trying to be spiritual, we are spiritual in human bodies”…
Andrea’s teachings will no doubt make an impact in your life… It is hard to describe in words the way she works as this can only be felt by her energy and what she transmits to the ‘other’…
I attended a Silent Retreat and a couple of Aguahara sessions and what I can share in a few words is that its the space she holds that makes a session or a retreat so impactful…
I really recommend Aguahara!...Water, when surrendered, moves so much inside of you, it is truly a beautiful experience although no matter if its Reiki, Aguahara or a specific retreat, she herself doesn’t feel the need to label the sort of work she does but instead holds the space and moves and works along with what comes up in that moment and that is powerful!…
She holds ancient wisdom inside of her, this is what I felt from her… So grateful for you Andrea <3

~ Romina, Malta ​

Everything I didn't know I needed...
Andrea's presence is simple and profound. I came ready to explore whatever she wanted to share, and was so thankful that she came ready to meet me where I was. Her home was comfortable and welcoming. The conversation was natural and insightful. Andrea's cooking was beyond impressive. The island's natural beauty was the perfect backdrop for reflection and adventure. I knew I needed some time to reflect and was so blessed to have her perspective and gentle guidance all week.

~ Josh, Canada

I've had an amazing time with Andrea, who provided space, comfort and guidance for my healing journey. Joining a retreat with her was probably the best present I have ever given myself. I can't wait to be back.

​~ Jana, Switzerland


Andrea is just amazing. So caring and committed to helping you get clear and heal with a loving heart. She knew so precisely where I'm at in life right now and whats important to focus on and work with that it left me stunned about the way she must experience reality, how connected she is to another realm where she can see just what is. So grateful for the session and her friendship. Everything she said made perfect sense and made it very clear for me to see what is going on, where I'm at right now and what to do. As if I knew it but couldn't see it clearly. Her Intuition and understanding are amazing and she has a great ability to connect all the dots so you can see the whole picture. I highly recommend her if you're looking for a clear vision and beyond what you're able to see yourself, understanding, guidance, introspection, direction and support. She is amazing and you'll be surprised how much! Such a loving and caring heart.

​~ Kristina, Germany

Andrea was like an angel. Her openness and love make you feel so relaxed and welcoming in her home. It was a beautiful place to just be. I really appreciated Andreas wisdom and knowing of what you need. The food was amazing! We will meet again one day.

~ Leighann, Switzerland

She always had, and she still has a big impact on my life.  We were meant to meet and I was ready to receive what she had to offer and to share.  She taught me Reiki when I was in need for help and healing.  She shared her spiritual knowledge and her wisdom with me and I think I can say that she's definitely a mentor for me. She always seem to have the right answer for what I need to hear in a specific moment. The way she explains and expresses herself in a way that makes me think differently and I see things from a perspective I haven't even considered.

She is a very grounded and down to earth person, what I can feel when I'm next to her.
Our paths have crossed 3 times in 2 countries and the universe will bring us together when the time is right again. I love to see how she is expanding her field of healing to help us, healing ourselves. I can't wait for our next encounter and have a play in the water.

Beloved Andrea, thank you for coming into my life. sharing, teaching, loving, being the best example for a strong and beautiful woman. But most of all, thank you for your beautiful friendship. I love you to the moon and back.

~ Denise, Germany

It is impossible to concisely write all my gratitude, love, and appreciation for Andrea. My world has changed for the better because of her presence in ways that are immeasurable. She exudes healing energy, love, kindness, and compassion. Growing up in a "traditional" Midwestern environment, I was skeptical of all things related to self-healing.
Wouldn't you know it? Andrea comes along, shakes up my world in a kind way, has checked in consistently over the last few years, and made a monumental impact on my heart, my soul, and my life.
Her knowledge is expansive, her business made from loving kindness, her love is felt immediately, and she vibrates the most beautiful energy our world needs.

~ Allyson, USA

Andrea is one of the kindest, truest people I know. She has a calming, connected presence and is genuinely passionate about her work. Would highly recommend her to anyone.

~ Amy, Taiwan

I have always been skeptical of people working in this field and a little hesitant to put much faith in healers and their work but Andrea is sincere. I have known her for many years but recently I got to experience it first hand. I can't recommend her enough!!
