Healthy Boundaries help conserve our energy

This self-care retreat will be focused on setting healthy boundaries so you can preserve your energy.

Do you feel drained from overgiving?
Do you feel guilty when you take time out for yourself?
Is it time you gave yourself a break?

At the self-care yoga retreat day you will:-

• Discover simple ways to set healthy boundaries.
• Recharge your batteries.
• Experience deep rest and relaxation.
• Explore ways to be kinder to yourself.
• Pick up simple daily self-care rituals.

We know setting healthy boundaries is key to conserving our energy but we might struggle to put them in place, which can leave us feeling drained.

In this retreat, we’ll explore simple ways to set healthy boundaries without feeling guilty. The day is made up of yoga and embodied practices, discussing ideas, and time for reflection. We’ll pause for a nourishing lunch break and end the day to absorb all the goodness with a guided deep relaxation.

During the retreat day we’ll be exploring a wide variety of practises that are simple and easy to do.  If you find one that works well for you keep doing it.  In order to change our habits we need to make new ones stronger. The only way of doing this is through regular repetition.

Who’s it designed for?

This is retreat day is prefect for busy people who want to quick and easy ways to prioritise their self-care.

Do you often find yourself :-
– blaming yourself for things going wrong
– wishing you we’re different
– putting tonnes of effort in and still feeling like you could have done more
– treating yourself like you’d treat your worst enemy
– wishing someone would look after your needs for a change

Who’s it’s not designed for?

This isn’t a fit if you

• want to attend a yoga retreat with a whole day of strong physical practice.
• You want to work on improving your yoga poses.
• If you’re already great at self-compassion, setting boundaries and can’t hear your inner critic or
• If you feel you would benefit from speaking to a counsellor or therapist one to one about your thoughts and feelings.

What to expect

The retreat day is about slowing down, there’s lots of space and time to absorb the effects and information form the day.

The day is broken down into seasons, starting with spring where we let go of things, summer where we taking in nourishment, autumn where we reflect on habits we might want to change and winter where you allow your body and mind to totally rest.

People have said how much they feel supported during the day, that there’s space to talk or be quiet, that there’s space to share or not.

To me it’s really important for the day to feel like you’re in pressure free zone, you can listen to what you need throughout the day.

During the retreat you’ll experience the nourishing space where you give yourself permission to slow down and relax.

Bring self care into every day

My aim is to offer you space and time to relax along with offering tips of simple things you can do every day to help replenish yourself. I’ll offer a few different experiments for you to try, that can shift how you feel in your body and mind.  These are designed to create fast and deep changes that stick. 

So it’s not only about the experience have on the day.  By the end of the day you’ll be able choose which tools you’d like to start practicing. Which are helpful for recharge your batteries and which are useful to preserve the precious energy you’ve generated. Helping you to gain a better balance in your day to day life. 

I’m really passionate about supporting people to reconnect with their body’s wisdom, in simple, practical ways that are quick and effective.  I believe when we live in harmony with our body, we can feel more in control and make choices that support what we truly need.
