In the heart of the Herefordshire countryside, where rolling hills meet beautiful private woodlands, there lies a sanctuary designed  for you to replenish your energy and restore. Our Woodland Yoga and Relaxation Retreat is a day dedicated to you—a chance to step away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and reconnect with nature, and find a new peace, pace and deeply relax.

If you are seeking a break to nurture your well-being, this retreat is your invitation to pause, breathe deeply, and embrace the profound benefits of yoga, sound healing, meditation, breathing, relaxation and story telling.

Surrounded by ancient trees, birdsong, and fresh woodland air, this day retreat offers a rare opportunity to rest, reset, and reconnect,  both
with nature and yourself. Come with friends, alone, in a group, you are all welcome, including beginners. If you have never been on a retreat before this is a great introduction, and for seasoned Retreat goers this Retreat is for you!

🌲 The Benefits of Retreating in the Woods

Time spent in nature—often called forest bathing—is proven to:

• Reduce stress and anxiety

• Calm the nervous system

• Improve mood and mental clarity

• Support immune health

Combined with yoga, sound, breathwork, and meditation, this day becomes a powerful reset for body, mind, and spirit.

I love to share a myriad of practices to develop positive energy and grow inner reserves beautifully, Scaravelli inspired yoga focuses on grounding, healing the spine through mindful movement and the breath. Working from the inside out, this practice brings a deep inner connection, new alignment and self-healing. I write and create my own unique guided meditations and relaxations. Accessible yoga, non-competitive, open to all. I am a trained celebrant and run workshops, retreats, ceremonies, as well as Yoga classes and Meditation classes.

I trained in Scaravelli inspired yoga and qualified at Morley college Westminster, London in 2006.
My work is intuitive, heart centred, deeply releasing relaxing and grounding.

Angie Latham

“Fully qualified and experienced Sound Therapist specialising in group mediation and relaxation”

“Angie uses beautiful and restful sounds such as the sacred gong, crystal singing bowls and harmonic chimes to facilitate deep relaxation and rest for body, mind and spirit. She uses these sounds expertly to calm the mind and bring you back to our heart centre –the gateway to our inner wisdom and unconditional love. She plays specific notes and frequencies that slow us down and switch the autonomic nervous system from the ‘fight or flight' stress response to the ‘rest and repair’ healing response of relaxation.”

Valerie Dean

I love to tell stories that help connect people to place, to landscape and
to the natural world. Stories that follow the seasons , of a year, or a
life. We have always told stories, shared stories, tales of help and
healing, of adventure and courage , of beauty and laughter and love. In
these times sharing such stories is much needed medicine, food for body
and soul. Let me tell you a story………………
