13 – 15 November 2020: Autumn Women’s Retreat
Join Bee and Su (Women’s Space Holder, Holistic Counsellor and Yoga Teacher) to explore our autumnal phase – of our menstrual cycle, our perimenopausal phase and the season! There is so much overlap between the three. At this retreat we will dive deep into autumn to seek learning and gain wisdom, we will tap into our own inner wisdom and we will learn how best to work with our bodies through healthy lifestyle practices, nutrition and herbal medicine. Autumn can be tricky, uncomfortable and challenging at times, but the opportunity for personal growth is vast and the opportunity to make this time easier to navigate is also great.
Come and spend a weekend immersed with like minded women at the Holy Combe Retreat Centre in the Cotswolds.
Further details TBC.
