August Retreat Day

A Day of Sacred Connection and Renewal

In the gentle embrace of August, we gather together for a day devoted to stillness, creativity, and soulful exploration. The retreat unfolds in a carefully woven sequence, each part inviting us to open further—to the sacred, to one another, and to ourselves.

What to expect:

Opening Sacred Space

We begin our day by honouring the present moment, setting intentions, and inviting a sense of reverence. The sacred space is opened with mindful presence, a quiet invocation that transforms our surroundings into a sanctuary for healing and reflection.

Meditation

Carried by the tranquil energy of our circle, we settle into meditation. I will gently guide you to journey inward, allowing thoughts to soften and peace to arise. The morning’s meditation grounds us, preparing body and spirit for the creative work ahead.

Creating Prayer Beads

With hands and hearts engaged, we move into the tactile practice of crafting prayer beads. Each bead is chosen with intention & care, as we infuse our creations with hopes, prayers, and blessings. This meditative art becomes both a symbol and a tool for ongoing practice.

Lunch

We share a nourishing lunch, a time to restore energy and connect with one another in simple, joyful companionship. The meal is an offering to body and soul, enjoyed in gratitude for the abundance of the present.

Welcoming Dee: The Power of Chanting

The afternoon welcomes a special guest—Dee, a dear friend, and a wise guide. Dee shares with us the rich history of chanting, unveiling its ancient roots and its enduring power to transform mind and spirit. With gentle instruction and infectious enthusiasm, Dee leads us in the practice itself. Voices unite and energies merge as chanting carries us into deep, collective resonance—a culmination of the day’s intention to awaken, connect, and renew.

May this August Retreat Day be a wellspring, nourishing each participant long after we leave, and may the practices we share echo gently through the seasons ahead.

Our day retreats are £40 per person.
