Ever crave a day to step back, take a deep breath, and reconnect with yourself? Break free from the daily hustle and rediscover your inner serenity at the ‘Reset & Recharge’ Retreat. Immerse yourself in an experience designed to break away from the ordinary, where you can unwind, reconnect with yourself, and connect with like-minded individuals.
This day retreat will take place at PAUS, the breathtaking Scandinavian-inspired venue on Saturday 13th July. PAUS stretches across 24 acres of land, including 13 acres of wild meadows.
The morning starts off with a teas/coffees before moving to a feel-good yoga flow (not too fast, not too slow). Next up, you’ll indulge in a delicious 3-course vegetarian/vegan lunch at the cozy Hilltop Bistro, where you can take in the stunning countryside views.
In the afternoon, you’ll get back to nature with a barefoot sensory meadow walk and enjoy some relaxation time in the Hilltop bathing facilities. Head over to the open air, wood-fired red cedar hot tubs, barrel sauna and cold tubs (if you are brave enough) for the ultimate healing experience.
For those who prefer a more laid-back approach, there are chill out spaces available, complete with deck chairs and hammocks for you to read, chat, share stories and laugh together.
At the end of the day, we will gather for a rejuvenating sound bath session. The gentle sounds will wash over you, melting away any lingering tension and restoring balance to mind, body, and spirit.
This is the perfect opportunity to unwind, recharge, and connect with others in a unique, tranquil setting.
Food and drink options include morning tea/coffee, a delicious 3-course vegetarian/vegan lunch, and refreshment while bathing (with your choice of prosecco, G&T, or elderflower presse). Additional drinks are self-funded.
Please note that although this is a private event where we will have our own use of hot tubs, yoga studio and lunch area, PAUS is open to other people.
