Wellbeing Retreat with Kelly & Katy

Join us for a blissful morning of rest, reflection, and renewal at the Griffin Estate near Chippenham.

Together, Kelly and Katy will facilitate a half day retreat experience inviting you to nurture your wellbeing through yoga, journaling, forest bathing, and a deeply restorative gong bath.

We’ll begin with an opening circle to gently welcome you and set the tone for the morning.

Nourishing Yoga

Kelly will guide you through a 45-minute practice of grounding, nourishing yoga suitable for all levels including complete beginners. Expect a soothing blend of hatha and gentle vinyasa flow to help you move with ease, connect to your breath, and cultivate balance and harmony in body and mind.

Guided Journaling & Reflection

After a restful savasana, Kelly and Katy will lead a journaling session designed to create space for reflection on areas of life we rarely pause to consider. With thoughtful prompts, you’ll be encouraged to slow down, explore fresh perspectives, and leave with greater clarity on how you wish to feel and live day to day.

We’ll then enjoy a relaxed tea and snack break, with coffee and nourishing healthy treats to keep you grounded and connected.

Forest Bathing & Nature Connection

After our break, Katy will lead you outside to the Griffin’s Community Garden where she’ll guide you through some nature therapy and forest bathing practices. You’ll experience nature connection as a way to slow down the thinking mind and become present.

Restorative Gong Bath

We’ll then return indoors to settle in for a deeply restorative sound healing gong bath with Katy. The soothing, resonant tones of gongs and other instruments will work in harmony to calm the nervous system, clear the mind, and rejuvenate the body.

We’ll close our morning with a sharing circle, offering space for reflection and gentle conversation before heading home feeling renewed, grounded, and inspired.

Whether you’re a seasoned yogi, a curious beginner, or simply in need of rest, this event is open to all. No prior experience is needed, just come as you are.
