As the season turns and the pace of life begins to shift inward, this half-day retreat offers a real reset for body, breath and mind.
It's rooted in the Ayurvedic understanding of agni - the fire that governs not just digestion, but the digestion of thoughts, emotions and experience itself. When agni burns steadily, things tend to feel clear and resilient; when it's weak or scattered, so do we.
Late autumn is traditionally seen as a cool, dry, mobile time of year - exactly the conditions that can leave agni depleted if it isn't tended to. This retreat tends to it.
The morning moves through a clear arc. We begin with an energising, fiery yoga practice, awakening circulation, building real heat, and gathering the energy that autumn tends to scatter. From there, breathwork refines and steadies what's been kindled, before the practice softens into deha shuddhi: a slower, more inward purification practice that lets you meet your own body as lived experience, not performance. The morning closes with light seasonal refreshments, to keep fueling the fire you've just built.
Expect a genuine balance across the morning: warmth and stillness, effort and rest, movement and reflection, all held in a grounded, unhurried space.
If you've been feeling this season's pull toward slowing down, clearing out, and steadying your own inner rhythm, this is a real place to take it - but with 15 spaces for a full Saturday morning, it's worth booking early rather than waiting.
