Winter Bliss Mini Retreat - Kilnhanger Studio - Farley Heath | Surrey Hills

Winter Bliss - Mini Retreat

A nurturing afternoon of yoga, sound, stillness & seasonal wellbeing

Saturday 21st November | 2.30- 5.15pm
Kilnhanger Studio, Farley Heath, Surrey Hills
£45 + small booking fee

As the days grow shorter and we gently move towards winter, we invite you to slow down, turn inward and take some time to nurture yourself. Join Tania from Wild Beauty Wellness and Claire Beasley Sound Meditation for a cosy and restorative afternoon immersed in nature at the beautiful Kilnhanger Studio in the Surrey Hills. Winter Bliss is an invitation to pause from the busyness of everyday life and embrace the quieter energy of the season through gentle movement, soothing sound, reflection and simple rituals of self-care.

What to expect

• Cacao welcome & ritual - Begin the afternoon with a gentle cacao ritual - a warm, grounding opportunity to arrive, settle and connect with yourself and the season.
• Nurturing yoga with Tania - gentle, grounding movement to help you slow down, soften and reconnect with your body.
• A deeply relaxing sound bath with Claire, using Himalayan and crystal singing bowls to create a peaceful space for rest and stillness.
• Herbal tea & seasonal refreshments - take some time to pause, chat and enjoy something nourishing.
• Journaling & reflection - space to put down your thoughts, tune into yourself and reflect on what you may need as we enter the winter months.
• Oracle cards - a gentle opportunity for reflection, curiosity and perhaps a little seasonal guidance.
• Optional Reiki healing - an opportunity to receive some additional nurturing and relaxation if you feel drawn to it.

All of this takes place in the beautiful, peaceful surroundings of Kilnhanger, nestled amongst nature in the Surrey Hills.

A little invitation to slow down...

Winter naturally encourages us to do things a little differently... To slow our pace... To turn our attention inwards... To rest, reflect and replenish. Rather than fighting against the darker, quieter months, Winter Bliss is an opportunity to embrace them - creating a little space for warmth, connection, stillness and nourishment. Think cosy, calming and nurturing. Think blankets, herbal tea, gentle movement, soothing sounds and time to simply be. You don't need to have any previous experience of yoga and sound meditation. Everything is offered gently and you are invited to take part in whatever feels right for you. Come as you are. Leave feeling nourished, rested and ready to embrace the season ahead.

Location:

Kilnhanger is approximately a 20 minute drive from Guildford, 5 minutes drive from Shamley Green, 10 minutes drive from Shere village. The address is: Kilnhanger, Farley Heath Road, Farley Heath, Near Guildford, Surrey, GU5 9EW

The dirt track that leads up to Kilnhanger is situated just off Farley Heath Road. Drive down the track past Kilnhanger stables & then turn right and drive straight up to Kilnhanger Main house.

Kilnhanger is a beautiful, rural location tucked away in the Surrey Hills. I recommend using this Google Maps link for accurate directions.

Parking:

Parking is located at the end of the dirt track just before entering the gravel driveway at Kilnhanger. It is just before the gate in the clearing on your left hand side, you will see a Kilnhanger Parking sign. If that parking area is full then you are welcome to park in the main driveway area near Kilnhanger Main house or Kilnhanger cottage. Please kindly avoid parking directly in front of Kilnhanger Yoga Studio or blocking any other vehicles in.

Accessibility:

Kilnhanger Yoga Studio is located on the ground. Please note that the toilet facilities are located up one flight of stairs and are not wheelchair accessible.
