Feeling tired and craving a break? Ready to spend some time on yourself? Want some self care that won't cost a million pounds?
Join us for four days of soothing connection at our Rest and Reset Retreat in the stunning and serene English countryside from August 2-5, 2019.
Peacefully picture yourself here:
(Click the small circles at the bottom of each photo to scroll through.)
"I just want a break from the stress of my daily life..."
"I feel overwhelmed by my never-ending to-do list..."
"I'd love to find some peace of mind. Sometimes I can't switch my thoughts off..."
Does this sound familiar? Whether it's struggles at work or at home, or maybe you're sick of anxiety and worrying about the future, scared of what's next or stressed about life.
It's time to stop and pause.
It's time to breathe.
And again.
At this Rest and Reset Retreat you will learn solutions you can use IMMEDIATELY to deal with stress, tension, and time management.
You will participate in group meditation practices and workshops, and we will combine that with time in nature, incredible accomodation, and ample solitude.
We're not going to review deep spiritual philosophies here. We're going to talk about tools you can put into practice. We're going to talk about habits and rituals, beliefs and decisions.
If you need some time away from work, the kids, the relationship or life in general, guess what?
This retreat is for you.
Let's reconnect, relax, and regroup.
(And also eat ridiculously good food.)
Ready to reserve your own room?
If you need your own private space to just be and breathe, this is the perfect option for you.

Share space, time, and conversations with new friends in a beautiful, peaceful place surrounded by nature.
"This was one of the best things I have ever done for myself. The food was incredible, the location was absolutely beautiful, and the workshops were informative and fun. I feel like a different person. I am relaxed, recharged, and ready to take this peace and presence home with me. "

Frequently asked questions:
Where is this happening? Our retreat space is a stunning sanctuary set amidst 700 acres of ancient forest in Somerset, England. It was originally built as a dairy farm in the 1800s, but now serves as a retreat center.
What's the food like? In short, it is high quality, locally-sourced, sustainable, and amazing. Our retreat space also acts as a working farm where fruit and vegetables are grown on the land using farming techniques that regenerate the soil and return nutrients to the land.
How is the retreat space? In a word: Divine. The interior of the space is made from reclaimed materials produced locally by learned craftsman. Organic soaps and shampoos handmade by Somerset-based Victoria Ogilvy are available in all the bathrooms. These products use only pure essential oils, natural ingredients and infusions. In the kitchen, every effort is made to reduce food waste and avoid single-use plastics. Luxury linen and towels will be provided. Solar panels provide energy for not only the retreat space but surrounding homes as well.
What's included? You are responsible for getting there, but we'll take care of everything once you arrive. You can either choose to share a room, or pay a bit more and have your own.
I've never meditated. Is that okay? Absolutely! This retreat is for everyone, and meditation is simply one part of a suite of activities and workshops planned on the weekend. Plus, Holiday has taught hundreds of people how to meditate so you are in safe and experienced hands. If you've ever thought about learning, now is the perfect time.
What will the weather be like? It will be perfect. Like it always is in England. =)
