Dear Friends, as the pandemic impacted tourism in Vietnam so heavily we have had to close Gratitude Vietnam. Gratitude Worldwide now exists as a company, and the hope is to open a retreat in Europe in the coming year or so. If you like what you see here, please join the mailing list for updates on progress towards the next chapter. Thank you for your love and support. With gratitude and love, Naomi and Hannah

Testimonials
Carol Lorac
Reiki
"Naomi is the bomb: gentle, genuinely caring and sincere, unhurried, loving and all that you could want for when receiving a Reiki treatment.
She and Hannah have created the most beautiful retreat centre in a very tranquil setting. It's well worth making a trip to them during a stay in Hoi An - thank you."
Ilke Aldemir
Sound bowl & Reiki
"I tried a combination of sound bowl and Reiki treatment which were both new to me and was amazed by the result. As I have back problems, I suffer from tenseness and pain in my neck, shoulders and back.
The treatment relieved a lot of pain in those areas and gave me a very relaxed feeling."
Marzia Glisenti
Reiki
"Once you come to Gratitude, you’ll never want to leave! Hannah and Naomi are two beautiful souls who put all their kindness and talent into making your holiday meaningful and memorable.
The location is ideal, 5 star service, lovely decor, amazing food, best reiki I’ve ever had."

Workshops
Naomi runs thoughtful and insightful workshops. Her approach is subtle and always gentle, allowing you to determine your own boundaries and I found at the end I had come much further than I thought or anticipated at the beginning.
She also provides constructive tools to take away to everyday life after the retreat.
I would highly recommend this retreat to anyone considering a retreat in Vietnam.

Everything is energy, everything is vibration.
Formally a music teacher and pastoral leader of 12 years, my ‘previous’ life was focused on bringing young people into alignment with themselves. I helped children and young adults develop their confidence, nurture self-worth and find their creative energies, so often quashed by the need to achieve and succeed.
Having taken a leap of faith and left a stable career to pursue a lifetime passion for mindfulness, meditation and energetic healing, I am now a Reiki Master/Teacher, Sound Bowl practitioner and retreat leader, and fortunate to be in a position to combine the tools and experience of the teaching profession with my core beliefs and practices.
A ‘trauma’ geek (and trauma aware), I am driven by the concept of the body-mind connection, whether neuroscientific, energetic, physiological or psychological. I believe that modern science is only now beginning scratch the surface of ancient wisdom; being aware of our thoughts, bodily sensations, intuition, actions and reactions enables us to retrain our habitual patterns into a life of gratitude, love and compassion – towards self and other.
Through my own journey, I have explored various practices and found many tools along the way that make individual empowerment possible. All of our retreats are carefully planned and tailored to give you a gentle, powerful journey of self, and time to explore how you can embed these tools into your daily life, once you leave the safe bubble of ‘time out’.
I look forward to welcoming you for a gentle, present and healing session here at Gratitude Vietnam.
I also offer a range of 1:1 in-person sessions, distance Reiki and online workshops:
Inner Child workshops
Mindfulness workshops
