Therapeutic Retreat: Deeply Resourced 2025 DATES COMING SOON 4 Nights & 3 Full Days Luxury Farmhouse Stay All Inclusive Nourishing Vegetarian Meal Plan Intimate Group: Max 10

In today's fast-paced world, it's common for the connection between our bodies and minds to become overwhelmed due to stress, anxiety, and the demands of everyday life. This retreat offers a space in which we can slow down, pay attention, and explore our relationship with ourselves and our bodies. Using evidence based therapeutic interventions, embodied practice and plenty of space to just be you, we hope you will leave feeling more empowered, resourced within yourself and able to make conscious choices that support balanced living.

But it's not all serious introspection—expect moments of joy, laughter, and genuine connections with like-minded individuals. This is a space for growth and community, where you'll be supported every step of the way. Guided by myself, along with my trusted collaborator Kristal, together we bring years of experience in psychotherapy, group work, yoga, meditation, and holistic wellness. Our focus is creating a fertile ground for you to let go, relax, learn, laugh, build friendships and leave feeling nourished inside and out.

Free Time:

Our hope for this retreat is that you will leave feeling fully resourced within yourself, saturated with new knowledge and awareness in abundance. However, we also know that to fully integrate the teaching quiet space to breathe is vital. Hence, we have incorporated free time throughout or schedule together. Space to just be you. read a book, have a chat, make friends, go for a walk, sleep, rest. Your time.

Online Integration Group:

3 weeks after our retreat you will have the opportunity to join our online integration group. A space to reconnect to the group, reflect on your time since leaving the retreat, offer support, share wisdom, learn and continue to deepen your growth.

The work that’s on offer on this retreat is backed by insights from neuroscience, therapeutic theory and yogic principles. You'll rediscover the language your body uses to communicate with you, enabling you to understand your own needs and in turn meet them. The aim being that you are better equipped to navigate the ups and downs of life without becoming chronically overwhelmed, exhausted and burnt-out. We will approach this learning with a top-down / bottom-up approach, which in plain English means we engage the mind (top down) and the body (bottom up).

Using therapeutic interventions we will explore:

• The function of the autonomic nervous system
• The impact of stress, anxiety and overwhelm on the body
• Internal, external and relational origins of overwhelm
• Actions that support your body in balance and regulation
• Practical tools & techniques for self-regulation
• Healthy co-regulation strategies to utilise with others

Using embodied somatic practices, such as:

• Meditation & breathwork
• Yoga & movement
• Inner critic exploration
• Authentic relating games
• Boundaries exploration exercises
• Ritual and ceremony

If your reading this thinking I have no idea what any of this means? Don't worry, by the end of the retreat you will. All of our workshops and practices are designed to support growth, which means we explore the edges of our comfort zones with curiosity and a light hearted gentle approach.  Nothing is compulsory, respecting your body and boundary's greatly encouraged.
