Does life feel like hard work right now?

Always busy. Always on. Pushing through, even when you’re running on empty. Somewhere along the way, you started believing that everything has to be a struggle, and that rest is something you have to earn.

Effortlessly You is a full day retreat to help you let go of the pressure you put on yourself, slow down, and move into the new year feeling calm, rested and at ease with who you are.

This is not a workshop. It is not a course. It is a day created entirely for you.

This day is for you if

You feel tired, stretched, or close to burnout.
You find it hard to switch off, even when you have the chance.
You feel guilty when you rest or put yourself first.
You want to end the year feeling lighter and start the next one with ease.

What your day includes

A warm welcome, with lunch, dinner and refreshments throughout the day, so you can arrive and simply be present. All food is vegetarian or vegan.

We open the day with intention setting, so you’re clear on what you want to take home with you.

In the morning, Paul works with your conscious mind, using movement-based NLP to get beneath the surface and create real shifts.

In the afternoon, Maddie works with your subconscious mind, guiding you into deep relaxation with hypnotherapy.

A one-hour session from a guest practitioner.

A closing fire ceremony: a symbolic and powerful ritual to release what no longer serves you and set your intentions for the year ahead.

Location: The Vedanta, Branston, a Grade II listed Elizabethan estate set in 75 acres of woodlands, meadows and lakes near Lincoln. Full directions are sent on booking.
