Monthly Countryside Retreats
Small group gatherings in South Devon
£45 Regular | £40 Early Bird (until Sunday 5th July)
Escape to the tranquillity of the Devon countryside and sink into an afternoon of deep rest, gentle reconnection, and renewal.
Set in a stunning location with breathtaking views, our monthly retreats offer a nourishing pause from the pace of everyday life — a space where your nervous system can settle, your body can restore, and your mind can find peace.
Each month we explore a different theme, drawing from a rich blend of practices including kundalini-inspired yoga, somatic movement, breathwork, mindfulness, and mantra. Together, these practices help release tension and guide you into a deeper awareness of your body and inner landscape.
The afternoon melts into a deeply restful yoga nidra, where you’ll be held in waves of soothing sound, allowing the body to unwind, the mind to soften, and the heart to open.
Whether you’re experienced or completely new to these practices, you’ll be warmly welcomed into a supportive and nurturing space.
Our retreats are intentionally held in small groups, allowing the experience to remain personal, spacious, and deeply supportive.
I look forward to welcoming you.

Summer Presence
Come home to yourself in nature's gentle embrace
Sunday 12th July from 1-4pm
Step into an afternoon of mindfulness, gentle movement, and deeply nourishing rest, held in the warmth of summer and the quiet of nature.
Through these beautiful and simple practices, we'll gently reconnect with our bodies and minds, rediscovering the joy of being fully present. Then, through Yoga Nidra, you'll be guided inwards to that quiet garden within, where everything unfolds naturally and effortlessly.
Bathed in nature's rhythm and the warmth of summer's embrace, thoughts begin to settle, emotions soften, and the nervous system begins to unwind, gently guiding you back to the quiet joy of simply being.
Nothing to do. Nowhere to go. Simply allowing presence to emerge from the stillness.
