Talking Therapy

You will be subtly immersed in the practice of mindfulness throughout your time with us.

Throughout the programme at your Serenity Weekend Wellness Retreat conversations are therapeutic in nature, skilfully guided during your time with Theresa, your qualified counselling psychotherapist and host. She is always aware of the subtlety required between times for speaking, listening and being in silence, in the company of others and time alone. 

You will be able to enjoy spending time in nature during your mindfulness walks and guided mindful photography activities in the extensive gardens at your new home away from home.

You will have ample time to wind down, which will enable you to process, reflect and rejuvenate your body, mind and spirit throughout your day because our programme is guided at a leisurely, relaxed yet progressive pace that ends after your evening meal.
