We live in a world that has encouraged us to forget that through our presence, through our love, we are the most potent source of healing imaginable - for ourselves, for each other, for the planet. You are invited over the course of one weekend to step in with all that you are, all that you're with, and discover the power of embodied community.
In a time where so much of our society is fractured, struggling or lonely, the act of showing up with an open heart becomes profoundly revolutionary. It's a stand for unity, for the power of presence, and for the embodied remembrance of our capacity to love and be loved.
Lee Lester and t h e f e e l g o o d p r o j e c t invite you to a weekend workshop experience that introduces the world of Embodied Empathy - a journey into the heart and soul of what it means to truly connect, to heal, and to inspire change in a world yearning to be felt.
Our retreat takes place in a beautiful, cozy farmhouse—a sanctuary where you can slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with yourself. You’ll be held in a small, supportive group, where meaningful connections flourish over shared meals of delicious, wholesome food.
We’ll dive into practices that invite you to explore how to come down from your mind, into your body, and from there into connection in a way that expands your capacity to relate and at the same time set clear, healthy boundaries.
As the weekend comes to a close, you’ll leave feeling more grounded in your body, more open in your heart, and deeply connected—to yourself, to others, and to a lasting sense of belonging that you can carry with you into your daily life.
Let's rewrite the narrative of our times by rediscovering the magic of embodied community, one heart at a time. We look forward to seeing you there.

Empathy isn't just a word; it's a superpower. It's the ability to open vulnerably to someone’s experience through the lens of your inner recognition - “I feel you, because I feel it in me”. It's about recognising that we are all interconnected, that our well-being is intertwined, and that by showing up with an open heart, we can be a source of healing for each other.
