(Commences Saturday 13th December 2025)​
 

This half-day retreat's theme is winter slowdown, which acknowledges the changes of the seasons. It honours and embraces the slow shift from autumn to the approaching winter season, and it centres on pausing, resting, and reflecting. Winter is a period of shorter days and colder and darker months, and it encourages us to cocoon, turn inward both mentally and physically, and nourish and strengthen our deepest reserves.

It can sometimes be quite easy to lose touch with that quiet space and inner glow that exists within us, that place where peace, clarity, and renewal lives. This half-day flow, restorative yoga, and sound healing retreat is an immersive experience and a special and intentional time dedicated to putting yourself first and prioritizing rest and self-care.
This retreat is an invitation to step away, pause, and disconnect from today’s fast-paced and technology-driven world, full of to-do lists, responsibilities, expectations, distractions, stress, and pressure of everyday life.

This retreat will take place in a converted barn, nestled in the Sussex countryside at Hackhurst Farm, providing you with the opportunity to escape and unwind from the constant stimulation and hustle and bustle of everyday life. Providing you with the space to slow down, breathe deeply, and align yourself to nature's rhythm, and your internal rhythm, and restore and nourish your mind, body, and soul, and fill your heart with love, light, peace, and joy.

Come and cocoon with us and reconnect with that quiet place and inner glow within you in this serene, safe, and nurturing space. Surrounded by the soft, warm glow and flicker of a sea of warm, inviting candles and fairy lights for a deeply nourishing, candlelit, gentle flow and restorative yoga, meditation, and sound healing.

This is an opportunity to connect with yourself and nature and nourish every layer of your being: emotional, mind, body, and spirit, in the peaceful, serene surroundings of this beautiful Sussex countryside. Whilst being cocooned within the comfort, peace, and stillness of this beautiful, converted barn. Whilst you are within the space, there is a felt sense of connecting to the natural world outside, surrounded by woodland, green fields, herb gardens, ponds, wood, animals, and a beautiful farm, abound with grassland.

​

Join Caroline under the warm glow of the serene embrace of soft candlelight for a gentle, slow flow and calming and soothing restorative yoga practice, where you will be taken through a relaxing, nurturing practice, allowing your body time to stretch and unwind. This gentle, soft flow emphasizes pace and mindfulness as you transition from one pose to the next. Unravel and let go, and allow your body and mind to rest. Then followed by a restorative yoga practice, which involves holding poses, enabling a gentle stretch, opening your body, and bringing warmth to your heart. Props are our pals, and there is lots of bolster time! Multiple options are provided for a more individualised and embodiment practice. Encompassing mindful breathing and meditation with a focus on using the breath as a tool both on and off the mat! With each breath, melting a little deeper, releasing tension, inviting softness, and surrendering into serenity. Ending by winding down and relaxing in savasana.

 

Then sink into stillness and surrender as Rose guides you through a deeply relaxing Nidra (yogic sleep) under the soft and soothing glow of candlelight. Then go on to retire to a warm cocoon of a sound journey and guided meditation with Rose under the warm, soothing glow of candles, fairy lights, soothing aromas, and grounding vibrations. Breathe deeply and surrender and immerse yourself in the calming, soothing sounds and deep healing tones, therapeutic vibrations, and resonant sound of the paiste symphonic gong, Himalayan and frosted singing bowls, the handheld frame drum, the rain stick, rain maker, koshi chimes, rattles, and various other therapeutic sound healing instruments.

Let go and allow the immersive experience to unfold organically and softly and gently drift into a place of calm and deep relaxation. Allowing the gentle and deeply nourishing, soothing and healing sounds, tones and vibrations to wash over and through your whole body, quieting your mind, soothing your nervous system, dissolving tension, restoring balance to your mind, body and spirit, and restoring and realigning your energy.
