Here’s to creating a happier, kinder world - together! 🌍
The last couple of years have been a real chance to live what we’ve been learning, haven’t they? Some of us may have taken comfort in spreading kindness and happiness to others, while some of us may have found we needed to retreat a little, or even a lot just to stay afloat. But now that things are more or less ‘back to normal’, or hopefully, heading into a better one, we feel it’s a great time to come together, in person, and really connect heart to heart, human to human, to nourish ourselves with all the love, kindness and happiness that we are always sending out into the world.
With this intention in our hearts, we have created a time and space just for us to drop all the pressures of life for one day, to really nourish ourselves and deepen the learning and practices we have been cultivating.
We offer you….The Heart of Happiness Retreat!
“Each moment is a chance for us to make peace with the world” - Thich Naht Hahn
Our Co-Founder, Vicky has had the joy and honour of being on retreat recently at Thich Nhat Hanh's monastery, Plum Village in France. She is so excited to share the magic with you and more!
This one day heart-felt, delicious retreat will be like warm, kind hands nurturing your whole being all day.
Consider this the ultimate self-care gift to yourself: protected time to experience practices that welcome in the beautiful energies of love and happiness.
We invite you to grow your heart of happiness from within!
