Introduction
These weekends provide an opportunity to explore the whole you on every level; physically, spiritually and emotionally. If you would like to access more of your creativity, self-expression, spontaneity, personal power as well as find more joy, peace and contentment, you will love this weekend!
They take place in a beautiful setting, which offers both stunning countryside and glorious seaside. A wonderful, peaceful place, surrounded by nature and exquisite scenery.
Coming together with a group of like-minded people, the weekend consists of a range of workshops, both indoor and outdoor, downtime and relaxation, as well as visiting the nearby beautiful Georgian town of Rye.
A safe, supportive and non-judgemental space is created so that you can explore yourself using a range of tools such as breathwork, meditation, visualisation, singing, visioning and goal-setting, complementary therapies such as massage and physical exercise.
Doing everything from scenic morning walks to healing around emotional blocks to singing on the cliff tops overlooking the sea, you will leave feeling rejuvenated, uplifted and more in touch with the real you. You will have a new sense of freedom with a clear vision of what you would like to create in your life… and you will have had some serious fun!
