Expand Into Summer - Knepp Estate 1 Day Retreat - May 2027

Join me for a nourishing day retreat at Knepp, the wild heart of the Sussex countryside, as we move from the energy of spring into summer.

This immersive day is designed to help you slow down, reset your energy, and feel well as the season begins to open outward. Through seasonal group acupuncture, meditative Qi Gong, and simple Chinese medicine self-care practices, you’ll be gently supported to feel steadier, clearer, and more like yourself again.

Set on the Knepp Estate, famous for its pioneering rewilding project, this is a rare chance to spend a full day resting and restoring in a landscape that has been allowed to return to nature. In May the estate is at its most alive, full of birdsong, blossom and fresh green growth. It’s the kind of place that helps your whole system begin to soften the moment you arrive.

The day includes a delicious seasonal two-course vegetarian lunch, along with tea and snacks.

How Chinese medicine can help you feel better

Chinese medicine takes its cues from the natural world, seeing it as a reflection of what is happening inside us. As the seasons shift, our energy can shift too. The move from spring into summer often brings more movement, more activity, and a stronger outward focus, which can affect us physically and emotionally.

This retreat is designed to support that transition gently, helping you settle your nervous system, restore your energy, and move into summer with more ease. Spending the day surrounded by the abundance of Knepp’s wild landscape makes it an especially fitting place to do this.

Includes

• Seasonal group acupuncture
• Meditative Qi Gong suitable for all levels
• [A gentle mindful walk on the estate, if that’s part of the plan]
• Delicious seasonal two-course vegetarian lunch
• Tea and snacks throughout the day
