Enjoy a mindful and self-compassionate Christmas!

​

Spend your Christmas practicing the art of mindful living and self-kindness, and gift yourself the space to slow down, and relax deeply. Escape the usual Christmas madness into the peaceful beauty of Devon and enjoy the company of a supportive group, gently guided by our experienced mindfulness teachers.

​

​You can expect:

​

• Your choice of a single or shared room

• Small group of 10 retreatants

• Delicious wholesome vegetarian food prepared by a dedicated chef! We cater for vegans, gluten free etc.

• Experienced leaders who will gently guide you into the practice of mindfulness with guided sessions, mindful walking and periods of silence

• Free time to relax and unwind, supported by deep relaxation sessions.

• Optional movement sessions

• Supportive periods of silence each evening and early morning, including a morning of silence for reflection on Christmas Day.

• Building a sense of community with like-minded people; with the opportunity to bring mindfulness to simple household tasks together e.g. washing up

 

We will spend Christmas morning in silence, yet with a sense of community, by enjoying a guided practice period together; to allow space for peace & contemplation.

​

Offer yourself the time to learn new tools and practices that empower you to live with more peace and ease. There will be periods for self-reflection, and personal sharing within a safe and supportive group.
