It’s time for you to rest, babe.
Join Charlotte and Sian at our incredible Abergavenny sanctuary for a deeply nourishing and uplifting weekend in the Welsh hills.
Celebrate the beauty that can be found in slowing down, and find a more peaceful pace of living to carry into your Autumn and Winter.
Land into your Autumn and Winter with a deeper sense of presence, joy and peace.
Charlotte and Sian dedicate their lives to building spaces and communities in which deep-feeling babes feel at home. Having both experienced mental health challenges, as well as just trying their best in a busy world, they understand the importance of building a life in which your soul feels at home.
“Slow weekend is our love letter to slowing down, resting unapologetically and the magic that can be found in the darker, colder months of the year. As sensitive, heart-led people, we’ve fallen in love with the art of seasonal living. Slow weekend is a space for you to truly nest, turn inwards, and gently ask yourself what you need to feel your best.”

Daily yoga, guided meditations and mindfulness practices for all abilities led by both Charlotte and Sian

TESTIMONIALS
Wow! What an absolutely incredible and utterly inspirational retreat. I left feeling so calm, relaxed & inspired. For anyone who is thinking about going to one of Sian’s workshops/yoga retreats, do it! I promise you will want to change your life!

I recently attended a retreat day hosted by Charlotte and it was exceptional from start to finish. Charlotte was a perfect host - warm, welcoming and attentive. The grounding practices put me back in the room, rather than the 100 different places my mind is normally at. She helped me visualise what my dreams could turn into! This retreat was everything I hoped for and more.

Sian was born to host these retreats - holding such a welcoming, cosy, safe and inclusive space with no expectations or judgement. Everything about Landing was perfect - it was a much needed pause button from everyday life, responsibilities and endless to-do lists! The day flowed so beautifully and the calm & cosy vibes never faltered - nothing ever felt rushed; it was clear that a lot of preparation, planning and thought had gone into the entire day - I loved everything about it and didn't want it to end!
