Would you like space to stop and reset your whole health with guided, personal support?

Do you feel you need to take control of managing daily tension?

Would you like clarity on nutrition centred around the gut microbiome & why it has a profound impact on health & wellbeing?

Our unique 3-day retreat gives you space to begin this journey with award-winning Nutritionist Dr Lucy Williamson, Master breath work instructor David Jackson, Physiologist and Health Coach Catherine Jackson and accredited Coach, Author and Educator in self-compassion, Cara Wheatley McGrain. We combine a holistic approach with evidence-based Gut Health learning to leave you restored, reconnected to self and with renewed direction. All in the most stunning wilderness of Findhorn, a pretty coastal village on the edge of the Scottish Highlands. All food is provided by Mohini's Kitchen locally or made together and shared around our table. (please note breakfast is only included if you choose options inclusive of accommodation)

Findhorn, on Scotland's Morayshire Coast, is a 45 minute drive from the Cairngorm National Park, it has its own bakery, 2 cosy pubs, local produce market, and miles of sandy beach on our doorstep. It's also a nature reserve with a seal colony in residence!

Travel & Accommodation:

We choose this remote yet gentle Scottish place for our retreat because to dig deep and renew requires us to fully escape... Our retreat takes place in Rosebay Cottage, Findhorn. Accommodation is provided for you next door in beautiful Boisdale House.

Why not make this part of a longer holiday? We have 'retreat only' booking options available (no accommodation) - please check these links for finding your own self-catering accommodation if this option suits you:  Findhorn Booking.com  Findhorn Air B&B

Here's what previous guests have said:

Karen: "The changes I have made have been beyond my expectations. It was a truly life-changing experience thank you!"

Ruth: "I loved that it wasn’t a large gathering & felt comfortable coming on my own. I loved the accommodation too & the wonderful space + all the activities. I loved your insights into the nutrition & your scientific approach. It has further embedded my good practices (as a yoga teacher) but also encouraged me to eat more variety.... I definitely want to travel back to Findhorn!"
