A day of rest, relaxation and connection with nature in a stunning woodland setting.A wonderful opportunity to step back from the busyness of life, by simply allowing yourself this time to pause to restore your body and mind in the beautiful, tranquil setting of Beechbrae Wood.
Throughout the day you'll be invited to experience various types of mindfulness meditation in the spacious studio, a mindful walk in stunning surroundings, including a contemplative labyrinth walk, and ending with a relaxing soundbath.
This day-retreat offers you the opportunity to step away from the distractions and stresses of daily life.
In this safe and supportive space you can give yourself permission to relax and restore your mental well-being, alongside other like-minded individuals.
