In this year of restrictions and lockdowns we were unbelievably lucky to have managed to squeeze in a “normal” retreat in the brief time between rule changes. Changes in government regulations meant we weren’t sure right up to the last few days whether we could go ahead but we shared a magical week of yoga and connection in the sunshine at the beautiful West Lexham.

I used the wonderful words and illustrations from Charlie Mackesey’s book The Boy, the mole, the fox and the horse to highlight yogic themes for our classes as we enjoyed incredible vegan food (thank you Purple Plum catering!), and explored our bodies and our minds through hard physical work, rest and gentle relaxation, meditation, a positive psychology workshop, gong bath, and time spent together in yoga satsang.
