About the festival
A new concept
Our mission is to revolutionise the conventional retreat and festival mindset. Rather than viewing it solely as an escape from daily life, we encourage you to embrace it as an opportunity for profound self-reflection. It serves as a moment to evaluate your current situations, habits, and practices, fostering positive changes.
A personal experience
We invite you to choose from three distinct activity paths, each offering a perfect balance of wellness and valuable time for reflection.
Engaging in a combination of mind and body workshops throughout the weekend will inspire you to continue and integrate these practices into your life.
On arrival you will collect your free journal to use as you like throughout the weekend. Giving you a chance to write, doodle, sketch and express your thoughts and feelings in a medium you can take away at the end.
Using this as a resource to help remind ways to continue your wellbeing journey in a way that works for them.
More than the weekend
We understand that a weekend filled with wholesome activities might not be sufficient to instigate significant changes in our habits for a lasting positive impact.
To address this, we are committed to maintaining engagement with our festival community both before and after the festival weekend. Our goal is to provide workshops, ideas, and information that foster a holistic approach to physical and mental well-being.
Our pre-festival podcast aims to demystify some of the practices offered at the festival, accompanied by free online practices to initiate positive changes. We seek to offer a preview that encourages participants to embrace these practices and integrate them into their daily lives.
Furthermore, a carefully planned schedule of email and social media marketing will be employed to deepen our connection with the festival community. Through these channels, we aspire to stimulate conversations, generate intrigue, and inspire individuals to actively pursue improvements in their health and cultivate a healthier lifestyle.

It's not always about being perfect
Our lives can become overwhelming at times. We may be aware of what can help us feel better, but we don't always know where to begin or how to start.
