Pawanmuktanasana – joint freeing series with feet on the earth
Staying at a spacious bunkhouse barn which has its own private field leading down to the River Ribble.
One of the 3 peaks, Pen-y-ghent, is nearby – plenty of time to ramble or hike. There is a huge adjoining barn which has been converted as a dance and party space. Let’s celebrate! It’s the full moon on Friday 😊 and summer solstice is nearing … dance to the drum of our ancestors with the breath of now.
Creating magic moments
As always I’ll be inviting great guest facilitators to help make the magic happen:
- art workshop leaders Angela and Simon Dawson
- world music dj Milena Dragic
- and a couple of guests yet to secure but … I have some very high hopes .. eeep!
The accommodation can sleep 54 but numbers are limited to 24 to ensure everyone has a quieter bedroom and so our commUNITY can grow. Camping and a private flat also available.
Delicious food and drinks all provided.
A long weekend from 4pm Thursday June 3rd to 3pm Sunday June 6th
that extra day makes all the difference – this isnt a retreat to work as a salve for life, a temporary relief. Its more like a sacred medicine for your life, helping you make changes to help you live more fully and with more joy.
£286 early bird price (by the end of December) – deposit £60. Happy to arrange payment plans. Camping £156 early bird price. For private accommodation in the self contained adjoining flat for 2 people add £160.

Autumn Healing Yoga Retreat
A long break from 5 pm Wednesday 30 Sept to 2pm Sunday 4 October
in a beautiful huge old Victorian house in the North Yorkshire Moors.
Earth warriors on the lawn!
Wood panelled walls, open fires, rambling stair cases, comfy bedrooms, a dedicated yoga studio, meditation room … surrounded by Nature. You can hear the sound of silence.
Years of running retreats has taught me one important thing. Friday to Sunday is not long enough to enable real benefit.
This retreat is specifically designed to enable you to relax deeply and profoundly, to enable the mindbody to release held stresses, to rebalance and re-energise. From this state so real health and vitality can be embodied.
We have 3 full days to yoga, get a massage, walk, play with arts and crafts …
side opening in sukkhasana
Giving more time
to yourself
is a wise, wise investment.
The retreat will include:
- Yoga in Nature
- dynamic, restorative and therapeutic Hatha Yoga
- pranayama (breathwork)
- meditation
- a one hour therapy of your choice
- art/craft sessions
- being Autumn – a good time to detox – a couple of kriyas (cleansing practices)
- lots of free time to walk, read, talk, sleep … follow that heart!
Limited to 12 places.
The house can accommodate many more people but the aim of this retreat is to offer space, easy friendship and peace.
