Shhh… can you hear it? That gentle whisper calling you back to yourself? 💫
Join us for a day designed to quiet the noise and awaken your inner calm through creativity, meditation, and mindful stillness.
You’ll be gently guided through soulful experiences — from sound bowls and meditation to creative journaling, intuitive art, and sacred self-care. This retreat is your space to exhale, reflect, and simply be. Surrounded by nature, a pond and birdsong.
✨ What’s Included:
🌿 Begin your day with a guided meditation and soothing sound healing
🌿 Infuse your crystal of intention — your quiet companion for the day (and it goes home with you)
🌿 Wander between creative stations at your own pace:
* Write a letter to yourself 💌
* Connect with nature through leaf rubbings & botanical sketches 🌸
* Create an intention or dream page from magazines 🌈
* Try teabag art, intuitive breath drawings, and mandala inserts 🎨
* Pull a symbol stone and reflect on what it means to you 🪶
Your beautiful journal (included) will grow with colour, words, and meaning as the day unfolds.
🌸 Pampering & Peace
Because we all need a little nurturing...
🩷 Foot soak stations (ahh, yes please!)
🩷 Self-pampering including warm stones to hold and melt away tension
Prompts to guide your day:
💫 Inspirational gentle prompts
💫 A space to leave little love notes of encouragement to be shared at the end
A gentle, soul-soothing day to rest, create, and reconnect — surrounded by stillness, soft energy, and kind hearts.
✨ Spaces are limited for this intimate experience.
