Heart-to-Heart: An Asia Immersion

An embodied immersion where practice and place dissolve into each other and life becomes quiet enough to be heard again. These Heart-to-Heart immersions are not yoga holidays. They are time away from the pace of everyday life, into practice, presence and a more intimate relationship with the body and the world around us.

Through yoga, breath, meditation, movement and stillness, we make contact with the quiet intelligence alive within us. The practices become a form of remembrance. As the outer world softens, what remains is attention, simplicity, and the quiet unfolding of experience as it is.

How the retreats unfold

The retreats move in a rhythm across the years.

Each year, I hold a retreat closer to home in the UK, centred around stillness, meditation and time in nature. Alongside this, the longer retreats move between Europe and Asia.

One year we stay closer, travelling into the warmth and landscape of southern Europe. The next, we travel further, into longer periods of practice and immersion in Asia, where life becomes slower, simpler and more inward.

Each has its own quality and asks something different of us. Together, they allow the work to stay alive over time - depth without depletion, immersion without separation from ordinary life.

Asia - Pilgrimage Immersions

There are also longer stays that move closer to the heart of life. These deeper periods, in Asia, become a pilgrimage into simplicity, stillness and practice.

In March 2028, I will be holding a retreat at Ulpotha in Sri Lanka, where I will be teaching for two weeks. You are welcome to join me for one week or both, allowing time to settle into practice and the natural rhythm around us.

If you would like to hear more, you are welcome to join the waiting list.

The next retreat is:
Ulpotha, Sri Lanka
12th – 26th March 2028

The Inner Pilgrimage. A return to the heart.

Europe - Closer Journeys

Alongside the longer immersions in Asia, there are also shorter retreats held closer to home. These are still deeply immersive, but shaped by a different rhythm - more lightness and space for life to remain in the background while practice continues.

Held in nature and supported by the warmth and simplicity of southern Europe, these retreats are an invitation to slow down, rest deeply and reconnect with what is essential. Here, practice sits alongside nature, nourishment, community and the simple pleasures of everyday life. Together we explore a living question:
How do we live well inside a changing human life?

Through movement, meditation, meaningful rest and time in nature, we begin to remember what truly nourishes us and how we wish to return home.

The next retreat is currently planned for:
Southern Portugal (Algarve)
23rd – 30th October 2027
Limited to 12 spaces

A pause in nature. A chance to return to the deep nature within.

UK - A Stillness Retreat

Alongside the longer immersions in Asia and the nature-based retreats in Europe, there is also a retreat held closer to home.
A retreat centred around stillness.

Meditation forms the heart of the experience, supported by Yin Yoga, gentle movement, breath, sound and time in nature. Periods of quiet are woven naturally through the rhythm of the days, creating space to rest, receive and listen more deeply - to ourselves, to the body and to life as it is.

There is no need to step away from life completely in order to become quiet. Sometimes we simply need enough space around us to hear what has been there all along.

The next retreat is being planned for Somerset, in a beautiful setting surrounded by nature. I am currently finalising the details and hope to share everything in mid-September. If you would like to hear more as plans unfold, you are very welcome to join the waiting list.
