The Mandala Retreat
Monday 7 April - Friday 11 April 2025
"Each person's life is like a mandala - a vast, limitless circle. We stand in the centre of our own circle, and everything we see, hear and think forms the mandala of our life... everything that shows up in your mandala is a vehicle for your awakening." Pema Chödrön
A Retreat for Deep Reflection & Inner Exploration
If you feel caught in a cycle of wanting change, stepping toward it, and then retreating…
If you’re tending to everyone else and sense it’s time to turn your attention inward…
If there's an inner voice calling for your attention, and you’re ready to listen…
Then this retreat is for you.
Held in a secluded farmhouse in the Herefordshire countryside, this is a space for stillness, self-inquiry, and gentle transformation. A time to step away from the demands of daily life and reconnect with yourself in the presence of a small, supportive group of women.
In the quiet of nature, surrounded by open landscapes and birdsong, you’ll have the space to hear your own voice more clearly - without pressure, without expectation, simply with curiosity and care.
Your Journey Over Five Days
Guided by Henny and Debbie, you’ll explore whatever feels most present for you, supported by a blend of practices designed to help you deepen your self-awareness and move forward with greater clarity and ease.
Together, we will:
- Set meaningful intentions and explore what you truly want from this next stage of life
- Create space for daily meditation and journaling, if you choose
- Work with beliefs that may be shaping your path and develop practices to support you
- Receive a private coaching session to further deepen your awareness of what will most support - and explore the actions you'll take
- Experience a deeply relaxing (optional) treatment with our qualified therapist
And, most importantly, you’ll have time to simply be - to rest, to reflect, and to allow insights to arise in their own way.
What Makes This Retreat Special?
We keep our group small - just four women - so this experience remains intimate and deeply personal.
Each guest has their own private room and bathroom, offering space to process and reflect. You’ll be nourished with home-cooked meals, surrounded by nature, and invited to step into a rhythm that honours both the depth of the work and the need for rest.
This retreat is designed not as an escape, but as a return - to yourself, to what matters, to the quiet wisdom already within you.

What others have said:
"You are both special women weaving magic to create a gentle loving space in a beautiful place. The retreat was one of the best things I’ve done for years. A BIG thank you. Xxxxx"

"I had no expectations of the Mandala retreat, I just signed up and turned up and let it unfold. If you had said that I would have taken away as much as I have taken away, I wouldn't have believed you. And the learnings are still coming. The drive to my parents, my time at my parents, the drive home and being home....learnings are coming. And I know they will continue and I am so excited about what that might mean for me but equally I have no expectations and will see what flows.
So what am I thanking you both for? Providing the space to really think about me. Giving me the gift to really understand that this is about me. Freeing me from all other ideas that it is anything else. Allowing me to trust that I can be fully me (even if I haven't quite worked out what that is yet). For giving me such a glorious start to my journey. For being you. For sharing you.
There are so many other things to thank you for which are more tangible, the food, the massage, the valley, the cards, the wonderful welcome card and gifts, the other guests, the wildlife, the nature, the hot water bottle!...so many beautiful touches that made it what it was. A safe nurturing space to discover self."

"Go, immerse yourself in the wonderful experience, the nurture, the love, the care, give yourself opportunity to slow down and really drop in, be where ever you need to be… restore your mind and body."
"
"This is an amazing opportunity for self reflection and nurturing."
"
"This was such a beautifully held space with such kindness and generosity throughout. There was such skill and ease and such an incredible set of sessions for us to discover things about ourselves. It was incredibly nurturing and challenging at the same time. You both have such strengths and range of skills. The days seamlessly travelled and I felt very safe. It was a lovely pace. I found I wanted to rest as much as possible between sessions to absorb and process. I thought you offered so much… such a lot of chances for us to consider how we are, who we could be.. the range and number of sessions was surprising - more than I thought there would be. And I found I trusted what was happening without needing to know more in advance. It was SO kind of you to include the massage and 121 session plus all of the goodies in our rooms too! The food was AMAZING."
"
"There was a beautiful positive feeling from the moment I arrived, and I really felt at ease. Debbie and Henny made that happen. It couldn’t have been delivered by a more focused and competent team."
"
"Thank you for creating such a safe environment for me to feel able to share my experiences and realise that others have similar challenges."
"
"Come! It was magical. Deeper, kinder, more nurturing and transformational than I ever could have imagined it to be."
