Mindful Sunday Escapes
Let us take care of you for a few hours, on this calming mindfulness experience. Immerse yourself in nature in the beautiful surroundings of Ness Gardens.

Time to just be, relax and connect with our inner calm. So here's your invitation to this calming retreat day. Described as a spa for the mind, body and soul, you'll leave feeling rested, relaxed and hopefully a little inspired by the power of mindfulness.
Just turn up and switch off and we'll do the rest:
- Light refreshments on arrival
- Guided mindfulness practices
- Blankets, cushions & mats provided
- A light lunch
- Time to explore the gardens
- A five hour mindful escape (10.00 - 3.30)

AvailabilityWomen are brilliant at looking after everyone else but when it comes to their own space, they often need a little nudge. For the past 4 years, we've been doing a little nudging by creating the perfect calming escapes surrounded by nature. This time we're at Ness Gardens for this beautiful experience limited to just 12 places.

NICE TO MEET YOU
Hi, I’m Julie
I'm passionate about helping people discover a less stressed, more balanced way of living.
I never really considered stress a problem, because it drove me and helped me to achieve. But every so often, I hit a tipping point where the responsibilities I'd taken on, became too much. That led to resentment and finally exhaustion.
Mindfulness changed everything. I learned how our minds and bodies respond to stress and constant thoughts - and for the first time, I realised I wasn't broken.
This was a light bulb moment!
I wanted to share these simple techniques and insights with other women. Helping them to understand and navigate their challenging minds to reclaim calm, clarity and confidence.
