Rewilding Retreat
25 - 29 August 2022
Broughton Hall Estate & Avalon Wellbeing Centre
Yorkshire, Northern England
Framed by moorlands and meadows, head to the English countryside to let go of your old, compromised self and learn new skills to promote a wild, connected and empowered version of you on the Rewilding Retreat in partnership with Balance Holidays.
Graduate from a familiar surroundings and routines to a place of new pleasures and fulfilment on this special experience, which will bind the values of returning to the wild-nature to unlock your true potential. Rediscovering a naturally restful and happy state, immersed in true wilderness. That will also provide time and space for the mind to roam as far as the eyes can go.
Activities and Workshops
Begin by dialling down negative emotions, ready to overcome personal challenges and enrich the connection to yourself and others in an Opening Fire Ceremony. Conducted by a guest expert who is a holistic voice coach and singer, the ceremony will include a mixture of practices infused with a poetic expression of sounds created by our voices will lead us to heightened self-expression and creativity. In this programme, the key focus will be awakening senses, grounding and correcting natural form and posture through exploratory movement and play, as well as igniting the excitement of being in the company of nature and forging new friendships with one another. Through a series of nature-immersive activities, Tony will be guiding individuals to explore a dynamic range of functional and engaging movements, anchored in harmony with the breath. These include barefoot woodland walks, runs, wild swimming, forest bathing and tree climbing. Rest time is equally as important. Generously spaced between activities and outdoor-adventures, take a nap beneath the trees or go on a gentle stroll for some personal downtime.
Find your place of calm within by pausing habitual thinking patterns and strengthening your inner-state through the breath in a Conscious Connected Breathwork workshop with an adept breathwork coach. A naturally instinctive and influential function to help us recalibrate, reset and find alignment in the present and day-to-day living. A Sound Healing Session is scheduled on a separate evening with a sound alchemist specialist to further encourage introspection and alignment with your true core being. Come together to reflect, offer gratitude and set intentions in a Closing Fire Ceremony.
Philosophy and Nutrition
Take this opportunity to also address compromised technology and food consumption patterns on this retreat. Each day, be presented with healthy, gourmet meals using locally sourced ingredients, specially designed by Balance Holidays together with Tony’s input. The use of artificial light will be kept to a minimum throughout this retreat, allowing our bodies to synchronise with natural light, limiting the disruption to our circadian rhythms and allowing deep nourishing sleep.
