Mindful Self Compassion
A nourishing week of mindfulness, self-compassion, gentle movement and silence in the foothills of the French Pyrenees
A residential retreat offers a rare opportunity to step away from the busyness and demands of everyday life and spend sustained time nurturing our relationship with ourselves.
Who is the retreat for?
This retreat is open to those who are new to mindfulness and self-compassion as well as those wishing to deepen an existing practice.
Some previous experience of mindfulness can be helpful for a longer retreat, but it is not essential. If you are completely new to mindfulness or retreat practice, we can have a conversation together about what the retreat involves and whether it feels like the right experience for you.
No previous experience of yoga is necessary. The yoga and somatic mindfulness practices will be gentle and offered with an emphasis on listening to your own body and working at your own pace.
As part of the preparation for the retreat, Leanne will meet individually with every participant on Zoom before the retreat begins. This will be an opportunity to get to know one another, talk through what to expect, ask any questions you may have and make sure that the retreat feels like a good fit for you.
Whether you are relatively new to these practices or have been practising for many years, you will be invited to approach the retreat in your own way and at your own pace.
