Nature is awakening to the dawn of a new Spring.  The land is lifting its head to the sun. We’ve had time to rest in the slumber of winter, to reflect, to turn inward.  Now, our hearts are opening to the possibilities of fresh starts and new beginnings.  In Traditional Chinese Medicine, Spring is governed by the Wood element, a time when the Liver energy rises like sap in the trees, seeking expression, clarity, and growth. Just as nature stretches towards the sun, so too does your spirit yearn for movement, vision, and renewal.

Held in the arms of nature and the magic of Spring.  Set in the sacred landscape of St Nectan’s Glen and timed with the Spring Equinox, this retreat supports you to reconnect with the energies of wonder, clarity, hope and magic. Together, you will be nourished in body, mind, and spirit through stillness, connection, and gentle joyful exploration.

“What if by connecting more deeply with the energy of wonder and turning inward with gentle curiosity you could discover new possibilities that lead to a more expansive, free-flowing, and joyful life in the everyday?” 

Do you..

- Yearn for time and space to slow down and reconnect with what really matters?

- Long to feel held by nature, and to rediscover your sense of curiosity and joy?

- Sense a new beginning stirring within you, but aren’t sure how to nourish it?

- Feel stuck or uninspired, and crave clarity, lightness, and new insight?

- Often feel the weight of the world, and long to soften your edges in a gentler, more grounded way?

- Want to strengthen your connection to your body, your intuition, and the natural world?

If any of this resonates, the Wonder Retreat is calling you home to yourself.

Introducing the Wonder Retreat

Spring is the Golden Dawn, a time of gentle awakening, potential, and presence.   A time for simply being.  At St Nectan’s Glen, the veil is thin.  Nature speaks in whispers, song and movement, and time stretches and softens.  The glen, its ancient trees, its sacred waters, birdsong, and elemental beings invite you to remember your natural state: connected, open, joyful.

This is a chance to step out of the noise, to clear stagnant energy, and to tune into your inner rhythm.  An opportunity to synch the cycles of nature with your own cycles and to support your needs.  No striving, no pressure; just trust, curiosity, and a soft return to yourself.  We’ll align with the equinox energy to clear, renew, and reimagine.  A space to be present with what is and open to what might become.  To plant seeds for the year ahead and water those planted in the last cycle.

Set atop an ancient rainforest in private cabins, you’ll be held in a space of comfort.  Sitting out on the lawn or the balcony sipping your morning coffee to the symphony of birdsong and whispers of the trees.  Or setting off for an early morning walk, you’ll feel the gentle caress of the golden light streaming through the vibrant canopy of majestic trees.  The guardians of this land.  Surrounded by ancient mosses and ferns, you can feel the wisdom held by nature.  Perhaps you may choose to have a soothing cleanse by the waterfalls or rest within the nature trail and cloud watch.  Besides the inviting programme that we are creating, you will have free time to make this retreat your own.
