Treat yourself to day for nourishing self care this June…

Do you garden or appreciate plants in their natural surroundings?

Most plants will need special attention to thrive, whether in nature or in your garden.

The soil needs to be prepared, dug over, weeds removed, and enrichment added.

The plants need to be positioned in the right place; just the right mount of light and shade for their needs.

They require sufficient water for the roots to establish and nourish the leaves.

They also require feeding periodically and dead flowers and leaves removed to protect further growth.

If the balance of care isn’t quite right, things can start to go wrong.

And it’s the same for us as humans.

Self care is essential.

This isn’t about having the occasional bath, it’s about considering your needs, setting boundaries, maximising sleep quality, nourishing your body, hydrating your tissues, and clearing the weeds from your mind, to ensure you blossom.

Ignore your needs and optimal conditions at your peril. Weeds will start to proliferate, you will whither and become sick.

The PAUSE day retreat is the perfect opportunity to maximise your growth and blossoming potential.

You’ll take some time to clear the undergrowth, nourish your mind and body, feed your soul and feel firmly planted, restoring yourself to wholeness.

The day will give you space for:

💗Relaxation
💗Reflection
💗Reconnection
💗Restoration
💗Revitalisation

If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to drop me a message.

I’ve made it affordable with the option to pay in 3 installments too.

🌻Come and join us for a summer stroll of the garden this June!

🦋Join Head Gardener, Gail Rowlands, and owner, Sally Edge, for a relaxed and informative guided tour of the garden.

🌻The tour will take about two hours, including a stop at the Granary for hot or cold drinks and seasonal homemade cakes midway.

🦋We will take you to see the whole garden, including the pond, the walled vegetable garden, the meadow, the ‘wilderness’, the composting area, and of course Gail’s wonderful flower beds! We will share our passion of sustainable, regenerative gardening, and tell you about the many ways we are learning to create a garden that is for people and planet.

🌻We love questions and welcome you to ask away, and share your own knowledge and experiences too as we go.
