29 Jun Autumn Retreat | Cotswolds | 29 Sept-1 Oct
“Surrender is the simple but profound wisdom of yielding to rather than opposing the flow of life.” Eckhart Tolle
Mother nature is one of our greatest gurus
She teaches us that life is cyclical. That it ebbs and flows. That it is a continuous cycle of deaths and rebirths
Let’s look at the life of a tree.
- In spring, it sprouts its buds and they flourish into leaves.
- In summer, the tree is in full bloom, rich and abundant.
- In autumn, the leaves effortlessly fall to the ground to die away.
- In winter, the tree is barren and bare. In the darkness, it prepares its environment for the next cycle of growth.
This is how we are supposed to live – honouring our changing energy – knowing there is a time to do and a time to be; a time to play and a time to rest; a time to create and a time to dream; a time to hold on and a time to let go.
Linear living
However, many of us are far removed from this way of living.
We have been conditioned to believe that life is linear.
That we should always be switched on – planning, doing, achieving and accomplishing. Perhaps feeling guilty when we slow down or take time to rest.
We live with a dominant outwards energy – always giving to our external world, constantly disconnecting from ourselves and our bodies.
This way of living creates imbalances physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually.
Time to surrender
I invite you to join me on my luxury and transformational three-day retreat in the beautiful Cotswolds.
Through a carefully crafted programme of yoga, breathwork, coaching, meditation, sound healing, shamanic journeying and connecting to nature – I will teach you the magic of cyclical living and how it allows you live from an inner stability, with your wisdom and intuition leading the way.
We will tune into and work with the energy of Autumn – the season of slowing down, reflecting and releasing.
Mother Earth’s biggest lesson during this season is the art of surrendering. Going with the flow. Effortlessly letting go of all that is past its sell-by date.
You will go on a powerful journey of self-discovery. You will explore your limiting beliefs and behaviours that hold you back from surrendering to the flow of life and shedding what is no longer yours to to carry.
I will hold the space for you to:
- go inwards and take the time to celebrate all the beauty and abundance you have attracted into your life so far this year.
- reflect on any challenges you have endured and the lessons they have offered you
- shine a light on what is past its sell-by date and what needs to be left behind
This is a wonderful opportunity to retreat to the picturesque Cotswolds where you can fully immerse yourself in nourishing healing practices and spend valuable time reconnecting back to you and your precious soul.
The beautiful Cotswolds venue
The venue is a gorgeous and spacious Cotswolds stone house with its own private lake located just outside one of the area’s most charming towns. I will give you the exact location of the venue when you enquire to reserve a space.
Unlike most retreat venues, it has a separate studio overlooking the lake where all our healing practices will take place.
The house is surrounded by picturesque countryside for nature walks or it’s a 20-min stroll along a country lane to the nearby town where you will find quaint shops, bakeries and plenty of restaurants.
There is a wonderful open-plan kitchen and dining area overlooking the patio and lake where we will come together every meal time to feast and socialise. There’s a huge, welcoming lounge with a log burner where you can relax, chill or read a book during your free time.
All bedrooms are large and spacious. Some are en-suite and some share a bathroom. The price per person varies depending on the room type. All detailed below.
