What to expect?
Join Sarah for a day of the ultimate 'Self-care' time. A chance to move and breathe together through a selection of nourishing yoga practices at The Granary near Brogborough. The morning yoga session will be dynamic and uplifting and we will then enjoy a Thai yoga massage workshop (outside if the weather is nice!), where you will learn some self massage techniques.
After a blissful and healing sound bath with Lucie, you will then be guided through a Yin Yoga and Yoga Nidra practice.
Lunch will be a feast of plant based treats, de-tox teas and cold drinks, followed by afternoon cake and beverages served towards the end of our day together.

Yoga
Morning Hatha Vinyasa Yoga
​
We will begin with a bespoke Yoga Class focused on strengthening the back body and opening the chest and shoulders. This creative sequence of heart openers will encourage you to flow with your breath - warming the body - as well as giving you time to pause and work more deeply into peak poses.
Pranayama with Visualisation
Experience a transformative visualisation for Summer with breath work to cultivate a calm and focused mind.
Lunchtime Feast
Lunch will be a feast of vegetarian and plant based treats. You will then have time to relax and perhaps even sit outside if the weather allows!
Soundbath
As the immersive, healing sounds and vibrations of Lucie’s gongs, tuning forks and crystal bowls wash over your body and mind, you will enter a deeper state of relaxation and consciousness such as during meditation.
Relax
We will continue to release the shoulders and chest as we leisurely move through a series of long hold, floor-based heart opening poses.
Yin Yoga invites the body to completely relax as we work deep into our connective tissue and fascia, dissolving hidden areas of tension. This meditative practice encourages both your body and mind to unwind.
Yummy Treats
Your experience will begin with de-tox teas and a yummy blissball.
We will end our time together with a warming drink, delicious cakes and sweet treats to leave you feeling nourished and nurtured right to the end of our time together.
Escape & Recharge
A day retreat is the perfect chance to get away and make the most of some precious ‘me time’ as we spend the day reconnecting with ourselves and our bodies. You'll return home feeling relaxed and revitalised.
