Winter Wellbeing morning retreat & lunch

Sunday 5th February, 2023 - 10:00 am - 1:30 pm

A gentle, warming retreat and lunch to see you through to the end of winter

Would you like to show yourself a little more care and attention in 2023?

Do you feel like winter has been dragging on and on?

By February it can feel like the world has been cold and dark for a very long time, and Spring STILL isn’t here. But there are still plenty of small pleasures to be found at this time of year; in nature, good company and warming food.

This morning retreat will help you reconnect with a sense of inner joy and warmth, and you’ll leave feeling more optimistic and hopeful, however cold it might be outside.

Join us in the peaceful surroundings of St Ethelwold’s House and gardens for a gentle morning of mindfulness and reflective activities. We’ll end by enjoying a delicious, warming plant-based lunch together.

All activities will be suitable for beginners, and you don’t have to be able to sit cross-legged on the floor (unless you want to!) We welcome people of all ages, genders and walks of life.

Included in your ticket:

  • Meditation and self-compassion practices guided by Sally Harris
  • Delicious plant-based lunch and cake from Kate at Down to Earth
  • Hot drinks and snacks available throughout
  • Time to rest, relax and explore the beautiful gardens at St Ethelwold’s House

Feedback from our last retreat:

  • ‘great teachers, great activities, great venue, great vegan food! I’d recommend to a friend and would love to join similar retreats’
  • ‘without a doubt I’d recommend to a friend, you make a great double act’
  • ‘I think the balance between wellbeing/journaling and mindfulness practice was perfect’

About the venue

St Ethelwold’s House is a beautiful historic building by the River Thames in Abingdon. We’ll have access to their beautiful gardens as well as cosy indoor space in the Garden Room.
