New Year Forest Bathing & Fire Circle

A gentle, grounding session to reconnect after the rush.

Places are limited and include tea, fire, and healthy treats

You don’t need to start strong.

You just need to start in rhythm.

If the new year has left your mind foggy, your body tired, and your senses overdone from all the socialising, this is your invitation to pause.

No pressure to set goals.
No 10-step routines to follow.
Just trees, stillness, warmth, and your breath returning to its own pace.

A Slow Start Is a Sacred One

January can be noisy.
Plans. Resets. Calendars. Goals.
But your nervous system doesn’t move on a spreadsheet.
It moves like the Earth, slowly, intuitively, seasonally.

This 2.5-hour mini-retreat offers you space to:

• Clear the mental cobwebs of festive overload
• Come back to your senses, and yourself
• Rest in the company of trees, not expectations
• Feel your feet on the floor again
• Sip something warm by the fire and exhale

What’s Included

Guided Forest Bathing session
No experience needed, just a willingness to slow down. You’ll be gently led through grounding sensory exercises, invitations to pause, and quiet moments of presence. Expect deep stillness and a rekindled sense of connection.

Fire Circle + Reflection
We’ll end with tea, snacks, and a simple reflection by the fire, no pressure to share, just space to be. This is a time to feel held, not hurried.

Herbal & wild teas + healthy treats
All included, served with care and warmth around the fire.

Who is this for?

• Craving calm after the chaos of the festive season
• Overwhelmed by pressure to “hit the ground running”

Why this is worth your time

In a world that asks you to perform, push, and plan from day one of the year…

This is your reminder that you are allowed to begin softly.

To land in your body.
To be in Nature.
To feel what’s true for you - without noise or pressure.

What Others Say

“Some people spend vast sums on spa days — but for me, sitting in the forest was priceless.

- Past participant

“I did not expect to have such a powerful experience with Forest Bathing. I enjoy being in Nature and well-being so was curious to try and it definitely delivered. I felt so incredibly calm and at peace. I completely lost track of time and got lost in the moment. Tansy was very friendly and professional and lead us on a magical journey. I will definitely be back!”

- Vanessa - Sevenoaks

Location

This session takes place in a private, secluded woodland just outside the grounds of Hever Castle. We’ll be tucked away in a wild-feeling base camp with a firepit, surrounded by trees, peace, and birdsong.

Note: Toilets are a 10-minute walk away at the Hever Golf Club. You'll be sent full directions and a packing list after booking.
