This year we are offering a full day retreat at Owlett Plantation and our residential retreat is back at Avebury Stone Circle and ancient woodlands the following April

A guided nature and forest therapy experience, enabling you to step out of your busy life and feel the tensions melt away as you start slowing down your mind and body, mirroring the nature around us.Welcome back to first Forest Bathe for the season. Spring at this tranquil woodland is a fabulous time to really experience and feel the power of this wellbeing wander.Over the 2.5 to 3 hour session you will offered a variety of activities, designed to help deepen your relations with your inner essence and the natural world that surrounds you.This is a real opportunity to simply pause and breathe. We encourage you to be technology free, demand free and guide you to a sense of timeless flow.This is not a hike, we do not actually walk that far, it is also not a nature class.It is a beautiful morning of slow, calm and stillness, I personally feel this time rebalances, restores and revitalises me.When we connect with nature, we connect with our own true nature.John Muir said” In every walk with Nature one receives far more than he seeks.”There is lots of scientific studies now around forest bathing / shinrin yoku and the benefits that bathing in the phytoncides of the trees naturally give us - including increasing our NK cells, rebalancing blood pressure and reducing our stress response.
