Welcoming Winter Retreat - Yoga Retreat

  • The Oak House Studio & Therapies Church Lane (off Great North Road), George's Gate Hatfield, England, AL9 5HX United Kingdom (map)

With Woodland Yoga

As the days grow shorter and the natural world begins to retreat into winter, we’re invited to slow down and embrace a different rhythm. Yet for many of us, winter is a season we brace ourselves for – the long, dark nights, colder days and a sense of energy and motivation slipping away.

But what if winter wasn’t something to endure, but an opportunity to discover a different kind of wisdom?

Inspired by the natural cycles around us, this nourishing day retreat is an invitation to pause, reconnect and explore how we can better support ourselves through the darker months.

Your Retreat Includes

  • RELEASE | Mindful Yoga

    Begin with a gentle, flowing yoga practice to release physical tension, reconnect with your body and let go of some of the busyness we carry. We’ll explore mindful movement and the invitation to soften into the changing season.

    RESTORE| Breathwork & Mindfulness

    Discover how your breath can become a valuable resource for navigating stress and supporting your wellbeing. Through guided breath awareness, gentle breathing practices and mindfulness meditation, we’ll explore ways to settle the nervous system and cultivate a greater sense of calm.

    RECONNECT | Nature & Reflection

    Enjoy a nourishing seasonal lunch before heading outdoors to explore the beautiful grounds of Hatfield Park. Through mindful walking and nature connection, we’ll reflect on the changing landscape, the wisdom of seasonal cycles and what we might need to let go of as we move towards winter.

    REPLENISH | Deep Rest & Relaxation

    Finish with a deeply nourishing combination of restorative and yin yoga, guided relaxation, yoga nidra and sound. A chance to switch off, soften and give yourself permission to simply be.
