My One Day Wellness Retreats
Step Into Stillness — Just for a Day.
Take a breath, drop your shoulders, and give yourself a day to reconnect. My one-day retreats are seasonal sanctuaries — gentle, powerful pauses rooted in Chinese medicine and women’s health. Held in beautiful Sussex locations, each retreat offers a deep exhale from the noise of everyday life, inviting you to rest, replenish, and feel more like yourself.
Seasonal Spaces for Realignment
These day-long immersions are crafted to harmonise with the shifting energy of the seasons. From the brightness of summer to the quiet pull of autumn, each one is an opportunity to tune in to your body, the natural world, and what you need most right now. Expect connection, delicious food, nourishing practices, and a sprinkle of magic — all in the space of one day.
Below you’ll find upcoming day retreats. Have a wander, see what resonates, and if you’d like to ask anything, I’d love to hear from you.
Experience the Essence of Late Summer
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), late summer is recognised as the fifth season, associated with the Earth element. This period emphasises grounding and nurturing, aligning perfectly with my retreat's focus on holistic well-being.
Join me, root down into the earth element and find your centre and your steadiness, in the pioneering and beautiful, Knepp Estate on Sunday 9th August 2026, 10.30am - 5pm.
Let Go and Breathe Into Autumn
I’ve created a very special day retreat to help you ease into Autumn with one of my favourite local therapists. It’s going to be an intimate gathering and tickets will be very limited.
Transitional acupuncture; releasing qi gong, gorgeous food, treats and teas plus sauna and swim AND include a transformational breathwork session plus a walking meditation to help ground and assimilate the day’s work.
Sunday 13th September.
Embrace Winter’s Stillness
As nature turns inward, winter invites us to rest, restore, and cultivate deep renewal. This is the season to nourish your roots and
embrace quiet strength.
Join me Sunday, 8th November '26 to slow down and align with winter’s wisdom.
