HOME | NYD Half Day Retreat

For those of us who wake up on New Year’s Day looking for something nourishing to do, HOME is the retreat you never knew you needed, or maybe the one you’ve quietly been craving.

Christmas and New Year can be bright, fun and full of celebration, and they can also bring up more than we expect. The season amplifies everything at once, from joy and connection to stress, emotion and the constant movement. There is the overindulging, the late nights and a pace that can leave the body feeling sluggish or overstretched.

HOME is a soft reset. A mini retreat to fill your own cup and nourish your mind, body and spirit. It is for people who do a lot, feel deeply and know they need a real break. Every practice is an invitation to reset gently, refill your energy and create a bubble of intention, love and joy around you before the year begins to unfold.

At its heart, HOME is about coming back to yourself. Returning to a steady, grounded place within you. A space where you feel clear, centred and connected again.

💚 Closing Circle

This closing circle brings you back to your own centre, back to softness in the body and back to what HOME really is, a steady place within you that you can return to anytime.

This is a day to meet, connect and hang out with like-minded people who want to start the year in a meaningful way.
