The Restorative Winter Retreat 

2024

4th - 6th December

A Soul-Nourishing Winter Retreat. ~ For Women to Gather 

For years, I have lovingly held these Restorative Winter Retreats at Florence House in Sussex, creating a sanctuary where you can step away from the busyness of life and enter a world with a more gentle pace, warmth, and deep connection. This gathering is a rare opportunity to slow down and be held in the glow of candlelight, the warmth of a crackling fire, and the nurturing embrace of a Women's Circle.

It is an invitation to release the constant urge to manage and do, and instead, reconnect with the natural flow of life, giving our nervous systems the rest they deeply crave. It is remembering the gift beauty of simply being and coming home to ourselves, together.

Throughout our time together, we’ll move through practices that soothe the body, open the heart, and gently awaken a “yes” to life. Each day, we’ll sit together in Circle, sharing ‘Heart Awakening’ practices that invite profound connection and shared wisdom. Our days will be enriched with deeply relaxing Yoga Nidra, guided restorative Yoga and Embodied Movement, and gentle Breathwork, all woven into the rhythms of deep winter.

Whether you choose to rest, take a peaceful walk to the nearby beach, or cosy up by the fire, there is room for to meet your  unique needs. This retreat is about honouring where you are, with freedom to do as much or as little as feels right.

By taking this time for yourself, you'll not only discover a deeper presence within but also gain tools to carry this tranquility into your everyday life.

Together, we’ll listen to the whispers of winter, embrace its stillness, and let healing naturally unfold.

Answer winter's call and join us. We look forward to welcoming you into the Circle.

TANYA & GEETA

I’m delighted to be collaborating with Geeta Jajani—Circle Facilitator, beloved friend, and an all-around beautiful human —to bring this retreat to life.

We are seasoned Retreat Hosts, Rest and Embodiment Therapists with over five decades of experience between us.

We have also been in a Circle together for the past 3 years so know the power firsthand. 

Our work centres on community and ritual, and co-creating spaces of deep restoration, connection and transformation.

THE GATHER/ REST SPACE

Nestled with views of the South Downs, the Rest Space is a sanctuary for rest, reflection, and connection. Cosy and inviting, it’s designed to offer the utmost comfort and ease—a perfect setting for our time together. 

Here, we gather in circle, breathe deeply, and embrace a welcoming atmosphere that nurtures the heart and soul.

This is the space where the magic happens.
