“And into the forest I go, to lose my mind and find my soul.” ~ John Muir
Connecting with nature has so many personal benefits - it reduces stress, helps us sleep better, maintains physical health, can make us happier and more resilient to life's ups and downs and reminds us of the beauty and wonder in the world.
But perhaps most importantly, by connecting with nature we connect with something larger than ourselves and begin to see the interconnectedness of all life. This connection brings us home to ourselves and as the mind becomes a little quieter we can hear our hearts call and open to our inner wisdom.
These Woodland Well-Being Days have been born out of the desire to offer the intrinsic, personal benefits that nature can provide by being fully present and awake in the wild, and give you the time and space to be nurtured and supported so that you can reconnect to what is truly important to you.
Through creative art, meditations, mindful movement, poetry, breathwork, dance and more (!) we will journey home to ourselves, let go of what’s no longer needed within, create space in the mind and body and kick start our innate healing capacities.
Allow yourself to be held in a safe space to explore the wisdom of the body, mind and Mother Nature to create greater calm, freedom and lasting happiness. As we learn to keep in harmony with nature and the seasons, we naturally encourage a flow and ease to return.
This retreat will be perfect for you if you:
- feel the call to connect with nature in a more meaningful way
- want to create space and time for your health and well-being
- would like to learn how to follow the seasonal shifts and rhythms of nature
- want to connect with like-minded people and be part of our growing Woodland Yoga community
- would like to be supported and held in a safe space so you can journey inwards
- need some inner nourishment and deep rest
No experience necessary, just a love of nature, and a readiness to journey inwards.
N.B. This retreat will take place at Panshanger Park in a private, secluded woodland. It will go ahead regardless of the weather (more details below) and we will have shelter and a fire but dressing for the weather will be essential.
