Experience the enchantment of this stunning retreat center.

Breathe in one, two, three, four........Now release your breath one, two, three, four.

Scented-breezes, swaying trees and melodic bird song greets you as you are ushered into the serenity of the surroundings. A place where heart and soul are given full permission to just be, as you begin to eliminate the stress.

Our first UK retreat will take place in the beautiful and historical town of Lincoln, in a lovely grade ll listed Elizabethan Estate which is nestled amongst 75 acres of woodland, meadows and lakes. Approach this beautiful venue, which is steeped in history, to enjoy the charm and grandeur that has inspired generations.

Retreats are not about escaping life, but they are all about fully embracing it!
Get ready to switch off your phones and enjoy the here and now as you reconnect with your inner self and shout out loud - "This is me!"

We are extremely intentional about curating the perfect group of guests for each retreat, to ensure privacy and personal support, providing a safe and non-judgemental experience to reignite your passions into intentions and to help you discover your true self.
