Sarah – Yoga, Reiki, Meditation and Healing
With a multifaceted approach to your healing and with many years of experience, Sarah provides a full and heartfelt range of therapies. Each therapy moves seamlessly to the next soothing mind, body, emotions and Spirit.
Private Yoga Class, Hatha and/or Yin
You can choose either Hatha or Yin or have a more prescriptive class by mixing the two styles together.
Hatha Yoga - If you want your stretch to increase stamina by getting your heart pumping a little harder then enjoy a Hatha Yoga class, we do not jump from position to position but rather move with ease, strength and grace whilst holding some positions just for a few seconds before moving on and whilst engaging mindfully with the breath.
Yin Yoga -Yin yoga is slow and gentle, it offers us a way to balance a busy life with relaxation, but also provides us with the ability to relax deeply in mind, nourishing the joints of the body and allow each body system to function in an optimal way. A deeply nurturing class to help regulate the nervous system and a gentle way to become mindful of body movement whilst breathing into relaxation.
Private Yoga Class, Hatha and/or Yin, 90 minute Yoga class - £75

Reiki Healing
Reiki is a natural healing energy therapy originating from Japan. Lying fully clothed on a couch under blankets and listening to music, Reiki allows you to go deeper into a meditative state as this is where your own natural healing ability is activated and accelerated. Each session delivers a sense of connection, relaxation, balance and a feeling of being deeply nourished. Many people leave feeling relaxed, yet invigorated and energised. All is welcome in the safe space created.
1 hour - £55
Shamanic Healing
In ancient cultures, those who needed help would have, almost invariably, visited a local shaman, herbalist, or witch who would have restored spiritual balance. In this present day, we can go a whole lifetime, living an unfulfilled life as our energy is blocked, overshadowed, misplaced or dampened. The overall benefit of Shamanic healing is a return of Sovereignty to you, where you will feel more whole, healthy, vital, complete and filled with love. Often the overriding feeling after a session is one of a deep and profound peace and has been described as feeling “happy for no reason”.
2 hours - £155
Meditation class
Here you will learn and experience the stillness of meditation. We’ll try different techniques to practise when you’re at home and find which suits you, as meditation is not a one size fits all, we’re all different and what works for one person may not for another. We will also practise some yogic breathing techniques that help to calm and centre the mind.
-1 hour - £55 - 90 minutes £75.00

Clare - Mindful Walks & Nature Journaling
Founder of the ‘Dwellbeing Prescription’, Clare is an artist, writer and designer.
Her passion is to connect people to place, which she does by using a combination of practices- these are art, design and walking.
‘I love to see people engaged and enthusiastic about the places where they live or visit. I believe that when we observe, understand and explore our surroundings well it gives us a great sense of connection, possession and ultimately protection for the local environment.’
Clare is offering retreat guests two creative activities. No previous experience or skills are required. The creative work is enjoyable and playful and Clare is a supportive and encouraging facilitator. All materials are supplied. Each guest will be given a Dwellbeing gift valued at £12 to take home with them, to further their experience and practice.
Nature Journaling
This is both an artform and meditation. Paying careful attention whilst observing the natural world throughout the seasons gives us a deep sense of wellbeing and connection.
Nature Journaling- £95pp for one session of 90 mins.
Mindful Walks
This is a practice that Clare loves to share with others. Walking in the world mindfully, especially in nature can be deeply healing. Intuitively using a method similar to the Japanese way of shirin-yoku (forest bathing) you will explore the local environment.
Mindful Walks- £95pp for one session of 90 mins.
Claire is happy to discuss prices for more than one guest or for both practices to be taken on the same day.

Carolyn - Acupuncture
The Chinese and other Eastern cultures have been using acupuncture to promote and maintain good health for thousands of years. According to Chinese philosophy, our health is dependent on the smooth flow of energy, or qi, through the body. This flow of qi can be disturbed by any number of factors, such as anxiety, anger and trauma, as well as poor nutrition, viruses and injury. The acupuncturist inserts ultra-fine needles at chosen points along the channels of energy to stimulate the body's own healing response and restore its natural balance.
When you come for treatment, I will ask you all about your current symptoms, what treatment you have received, your medical history, your diet, digestive system, sleeping patterns and emotional state. I will then check your tongue and pulses and make a diagnosis. At this point I choose appropriate points along the meridians to best treat your problem. Acupuncture needles are much finer than needles used for injections and blood tests, so it really doesn't hurt!
27 years of experience, combined with constantly updating my skills, means I can provide highly qualified, safe and effective treatment, whatever your problem.
I specialise in fertility and gynaecological issues, stress, and trauma, but can also treat anything from muscular skeletal conditions such as frozen shoulders, tennis elbow, back, hip problems and arthritis to digestive health and long Covid,. It is also very helpful for more internal issues, for example stress, migraines, IBS, anxiety and panic attacks.
Acupuncture is relaxing, energising and detoxing, and I often combine it with Reiki for a particularly healing experience.
90 mins session. £75.00
Cosmetic Acupuncture, £95.00

Rosie – Reflexology
Reflexology is a wonderfully relaxing therapy whereby the feet are massaged and pressure is applied to certain parts of the feet depending on your body’s needs. The body’s energy zones end in the feet, therefore healing can be initiated and accelerated by applying pressure to specific zones on the feet that are connected to areas of the body.
During the treatment your body enjoys a deep sensation of calm and relaxation. A sensation that can stay with you for a long time. There are many conditions that can benefit from Reflexology including PMS, Sciatica, Sinusitis, Depression, Hormonal imbalance, aches and pains, stress-related conditions,
panic attacks and ME. It is the perfect way to boost your immune system and generate a wonderful sense of wellbeing.
Rosie, in addition to these conditions, also specialises in fertility and hormonal issues. She had a very successful practice for 6 years in Richmond and we are thrilled to be able to offer her skills now at The Retreat.

Sylvia – TRE (Tension Releasing Exercises)
Welcome to TRE, a somatic stress management tool with a range of amazing knock-on effects – both psychological as well as physiological.
TRE works on the principle that when we are stressed, we tense up and store this tension in our muscles. This can cause headaches/migraines, neck/shoulder/back pain, gastrointestinal issues etc. … practising TRE can help you to return to a state of balance.
During your sessions, experience and learn how to:
-
relax deeply and release tension and stress
-
take your health and well-being into your own hands
-
give your busy mind a rest and let the body do the work
And – most importantly – take your new skill home and integrate it into your life.
Your teacher is Sylvia, a certified TRE Provider, who has a business background and knows very well what stress is. Although she used to dismiss it as “but I am having fun”, its impacts were there: teeth-grinding and lower back pain.
Fast forward 20 years and Sylvia truly believes that stress really is the root of all evil, but also knows that we can support our bodies to release stress and tension.
Sylvia's teaching is informative, gentle and empathic – empowering you to take your health into your own hands, well body.
One-to-one: £85 Group session (up to four participants) £65 pp
Laughter Yoga
For groups visiting Witherdens Hall, Sylvia also offers Laughter Yoga. She says:
In Laughter Yoga we really laugh for no reason whatsoever – no jokes, no comedy – just for the pure joy of it. And we don't even need a sense of humour, trust me, I'm German!
Children laugh up to 300 to 400 times a day – adults, on the other hand, about 17 times.
Be childlike, playful, joyful and discover how you can lift your mood, get a good work-out at the same time and experience even more health and well-being benefits. Please check out www.laughforsuccess.co.uk for more information.
