What past guests say
"A fundamental shift has taken place in me and I have a greater sense of well being. I am holding my body differently, with less tension in multiple areas. I feel more relaxed, my nervous system calmer, even in the face of everyday life stressors. Joanna fosters deep trust and safety"
What's included
A 3 night retreat to nourish and resource those raising children/young adults: come with your spouse/partner, co-parent/guardian or come solo.
This retreat is grounded in connection-based parenting — an approach that meets children's big feelings and difficult behaviour with warmth and curiosity rather than control.
Set inside four unhurried days in the Somerset countryside, we'll explore how to stay connected through the hard moments: meltdowns, defiance, sibling conflict, and the everyday ruptures that test our patience.
Amongst other things, we will consider the specific challenges presented by screens.
Sessions are gentle by design, with plenty of room either side for rest, walking, and quiet company.
We will be based at the beautiful 42 Acres in Somerset.
