A three-day-two-night retreat for women who are burned out, and need to rest and reset

It’s the end of term, the scholastic year. Perhaps you’re in education, perhaps you’re a full on parent or carer, perhaps work has burdened you beyond belief.

Take time out, away from it all and accept a weekend where you don’t have to do or decide anything. Allow Viveka Gardens and Fiona hold a safe space for you.

On the retreat rest and reset with:

morning meditation
circle and journalling
gently embodying yoga practices morning and afternoon
meditation walks
an invitation to times of mouna (silence in the group)

VG offers secluded spots on the land here, good vegan food, simple and cosy accommodation, time in nature and space for yourself. Optional 30-minute 1-1 coaching session with Fiona included.

Extend your stay

You have the opportunity to integrate the retreat experience and extend your stay one or two nights, self-guided B&B

Extra 1-1 benefit

You can opt to work 1-1 with Fiona with coaching or yoga practice at a special retreat rate

A beautiful, wild spot for a thoughtful weekend of movement, journaling and meditation, that feels a million miles from ‘real life’. I am grateful for a heartfelt retreat, filled with wisdom and compassion, and precious connection with other women. The accommodation is semi-sharing – with dividers for privacy – with very comfortable beds and a great shower. Very cosy and cottagey. Spectacular, generous home cooking and it was great to share meals and chat. Thoroughly recommended. J, Exeter

Aaaand relax! What a brilliant experience at Viveka Gardens Retreat. Wonderful, gentle yoga, expertly guided by Fiona, delicious vegan food and very comfortable accommodation in a really beautiful location. Buildings and grounds idyllic. We also shared profound silent meditations and profound chats together, along with plenty of giggles! Highly recommended! A, Sheffield

I loved the yoga retreat I just attended with some dear friends. I’m new to yoga and Fiona was so helpful at tailoring the retreat for all of us. The place was beautiful, food was home cooked and delicious. It was in such a beautiful setting and Fiona was pivotal to such a great weekend. I thoroughly recommend a visit. S, Southend

We had such a lovely few days at Viveka Gardens with Fiona, and I’ve come home feeling refreshed and relaxed. She looked after us extremely well in her airy and calm retreat space. Her yoga teaching style was very tailored to our requests and capabilities, and there was plenty of time for rest and reflection, as well as swimming in a beautiful river spot and walking to take in the views.
