Connecting To The Self
Nourishing • Therapeutic • Rejuvenating
In order to create a therapeutic and nourishing yoga experience for you, we have selected this beautiful Georgian farmhouse in Blandford Dorset. It's tucked away in Tarrant Valley in north Dorset, with access to over 900 acres of organic farmland with miles of trails for walking and biking.
​
The purpose of this retreat is to take time to nourish the body and mind and reconnect with our essential nature, which is the intrinsic happiness and fullness. This special place will allow you to relax and immerse yourself into a conscious and mindful state and allow you to connect with the inner experience of wellbeing and peace.
​
The day will be made up of morning flow yoga, followed by a freshly prepared plant based brunch catered for by Bournemouth based independent catering business Green Label Kitchen. This will be followed in the afternoon by yin yoga / restorative yoga, and then we will then be ready for our delicious, home cooked dinner. There will also be a dedicated workshop scheduled during the day, as well as an optional guided walk to allow you to explore the area if you wish.
Our retreats are designed to be relaxed and informal, if you wish to you can explore the grounds in between classes, or simply enjoy the countryside fresh air. This day retreat allows you to fully relax by taking time to be by yourself, or enjoy the space with llike minded people.
What You Can Expect
Yoga
All sessions are suitable for all levels. They are designed in a supportive environment for those who are looking to learn or return to the foundations of yoga postures, alignment, breathing, and technique. It will be a mixture of Vinyasa flow, Hatha, and Yin / Restorative. Daily practice will help you to feel grounded, centred and rejuvenated.
​
Yoga Nidra & Singing Bowl Meditation
Yoga nidra promotes deep rest and relaxation that isn’t found in your average meditation practice. The stages of body scan and breath awareness alone can be practiced to calm the nervous system, leading to less stress and better health. In combination with singing bowl meditation, it takes you to a deeper relaxation on a cellular level.
​
Pranayama & Meditation
In the medical community, there is a growing appreciation for the positive impact that deep breathing can have on the physiology, both in the mind and the body. Both Pranayama and meditation helps reduce anxiety and depression, lower/stabilise blood pressure, decrease feelings of stress and overwhelm, improve immunity.
​
Plant-Based Nourishing Food
We provide fresh, home-cooked plant based food catered by a Bournemouth based small independent catering business. Dishes incorporate modern twists to create fresh and exciting flavours. We can accommodate dietary requirements such as gluten-free etc. Please do let us know in advance.
