🌿 5-Hour Wellness Retreat at Dearden Wood Campsite 🌿
Hosted by Birtle Health, Fitness & Wellbeing
Step away from the everyday and immerse yourself in a soul-nourishing retreat designed to reconnect you with your mind, body, and spirit - all set in the serene embrace of nature at the magical Dearden Wood Campsite.
🧘‍♀️✨ Join us for 5 transformative hours of wellbeing, creativity, movement, and healing in a sacred woodland space, surrounded by birdsong, fresh air, and community.

🌟 Our Journey Begins with Dr Fiona Jane Meechan
A compassionate force for transformation, Dr Fiona Jane Meechan will guide us into the day with a powerful talk on self-compassion and conscious leadership. Fiona is a Harvard-trained lifestyle and wellness coach, Manchester Business School lecturer, and Reiki practitioner, with a deep understanding that true compassion starts within. Her warm, insightful presence will help you drop into your heart space and set the tone for a truly connected day.

🎨 Creative Release with Lucy Waide
Next, you’ll head deep into the woods with Lucy Waide, a trauma-informed artist whose life journey - from teacher to chocolatier to healing guide - is as rich and textured as her art. With music, movement, and paint, Lucy creates a vibrant, somatic experience where you’ll be invited to let go, express, and feel. This joyful, intuitive painting session is all about reconnecting to your gut feelings and letting your inner voice rise to the surface in a safe, expressive space.

🌲❄️ Forest Bathing & Contrast Therapy with Hayley Smith
After your creative immersion, reconnect with the earth through a grounding session of forest bathing led by Hayley Smith of Birtle Health, Fitness & Wellbeing. A deeply experienced Cold Water Therapy and Breathwork Coach, Hayley will then gently guide you through a powerful contrast therapy session - combining hot and cold elements to awaken the senses, calm the nervous system, and restore your body from the inside out.

🍕 Wood-Fired Nourishment
Afterwards, warm up and refuel with a lovingly prepared, delicious pizza from our outdoor pizza oven - because healing happens best when the body is nourished and cared for.

🔔 Reiki, Gong & Sound Bath Among the Trees with Jess, Kate & Hayley
To close our journey, we’ll settle into a profound sound healing session with the magical Jess from New Earth Holistic Sounds & Soul Fitness. With 15+ years of experience in fitness, energy healing, and sound therapy, Jess brings a grounded yet cosmic energy to her work. Surrounded by trees, under open skies, let the gongs and sacred sounds ripple through your body, bringing deep relaxation, alignment, and peace to every cell.
During this closing experience, Jess will be supported with a powerful Reiki session from Kate - a Reiki Master known for her compassionate, heart-led approach to energy healing. Kate will in turn be supported by Hayley, who, alongside her 20 years of expertise in health, fitness, and wellbeing, has recently qualified in Reiki. Together, their combined skills create a deeply nurturing and restorative energy field for participants to immerse themselves in during the sound bath.

🌸 This retreat is your invitation to reconnect - with yourself, with nature, and with a loving, like-minded community.
Let yourself soften. Let yourself heal. Let yourself .
