Summer Solstice Wild Woman Gathering
Saturday 21st June
10am–3pm | Private 34-acre woodland near Tadcaster
10 women only | £145
You are warmly invited to step away from the noise of the everyday and into the magic of the wild.
The Summer Solstice is the longest day of the year—a potent time of light, celebration, and inner power. It’s a moment to pause and reflect on how far you’ve come, to release what no longer serves you, and to realign with what truly matters. For thousands of years, women have gathered at this time to honour the land, the light, and each other—and this is your invitation to do the same.
Held in 34 acres of private woodland and meadow near Tadcaster, this intimate 5-hour retreat is a soul-deep experience designed to reconnect you with nature, your intuition, and the strength of sacred sisterhood.
What to Expect on the Day:
Cacao & Solstice Shamanic Journey
We’ll begin with a sacred cacao ceremony, using ceremonial-grade cacao to open the heart, ground the body, and awaken the senses. From this space, you'll be guided through a shamanic journey meditation—connecting you with the energy of the Solstice, the element of fire, and the parts of you that are ready to rise, shine, and expand. Expect clarity, warmth, and deep inner insight.
Barefoot Foraging Walk
Together, we’ll walk the land slowly and mindfully—barefoot for those who feel called—awakening our connection with the earth beneath us. Along the way, you'll be introduced to wild, edible, and medicinal plants that grow in our native hedgerows and meadows. This is a grounding, sensory-rich experience that reminds us we belong to the land, and it belongs to us.
Flower Crown Crafting
Using seasonal and foraged flowers, herbs, and foliage, you’ll create your own flower crown—a symbol of your power, beauty, and connection to nature. This is a creative and meditative process that invites you to honour yourself and the season with your hands and heart.
Crystal Bowl Sound Bath & Reiki Energy Healing
Lie back, rest, and receive as you're bathed in the healing frequencies of crystal singing bowls, layered with gentle Reiki energy. This powerful combination works deeply on the nervous system, helping you to release tension, restore balance, and integrate everything you've experienced so far.
Sharing Circle & Fire Ritual
We’ll close the day by gathering around the fire—a place of warmth, truth, and transformation. In a safe and sacred circle, you’ll be invited to share anything that’s alive in your heart. Then, using the ancient ritual of fire, we’ll release what we’re ready to let go of and call in what we wish to grow. For those who feel brave and joyful: fire jumping is welcome but always optional—a symbolic leap into the next season of your life.
Nourishing Woodland Lunch
Enjoy a grounding, seasonal, plant-based meal lovingly prepared and served outdoors. You’ll also be welcomed with warm drinks and sweet treats throughout the day. Food is a vital part of the nourishment we share as women, and every bite is part of the ceremony.
This gathering is for anyone who feels called to slow down, reconnect, and return to the wisdom of the earth. You don’t need to know anything about Solstice, ceremony, or foraging to feel held here—just bring your open heart, a willingness to be in nature, and the longing to remember what it means to truly belong.
