Saturday Retreats - 2024/2025

We are offering an assortment of one day retreats throughout the year. These are listed below, with more information about how to book.

  • Heartspace - Retreat days to nourish the heart

    These are opportunities to come together to share silence, open the ‘ears’ of our hearts and rest in being. Sometimes a deepening sense of presence and connectedness can arise within our experience as we sit, immersing ourselves in the living, wild beauty of Dartmoor.

    Each day will have a simple rhythm of silent sitting;  Kum Nye (Tibetan yoga); walking meditation, outside if possible; and practices of the heart. 

    Everyone is welcome!

    The days will start at 10:00am and finish at 3:00pm.

    Please bring your own lunch. Teas and coffee are provided.
