Spring is the season of awakening and new beginnings—a time for growth, clearing stagnation, and planting seeds for the year ahead. In Chinese medicine, this is the season of the Wood element, encouraging us to find flexibility and direction.
Join me for an uplifting spring retreat, where you’ll experience revitalising Qi Gong, acupressure, and other Chinese medicine techniques to support clarity, creativity, and the smooth flow of energy.
Nestled in a peaceful retreat space in Steyning, Sussex, this day also offers the chance to swim in the natural pond and warm up in the bespoke sauna—a powerful contrast to invigorate your senses and welcome the season's renewal.
