Tree Wisdom Workshop: Medicine, Magic, and LorePicton Castle and Gardens
10.30 - 16.00
4th July 2026
Spend a day in the magical woodlands and gardens that surround Picton Castle, in a deeply healing and restorative retreat that connects you through direct experience with the healing wisdom found in the natural world.
Revitalise your energies, learn how to naturally lower stress levels, and feel a sense of balance and harmony within, in a workshop that brings together aspects of herbal wisdom, healing with trees, meditation, energy and chakra healing, mindfulness practice, folklore, creative inspirations to be found within nature, and a little bit of magic too.
Share company with ancient trees, and enjoy the stunning array of plants found within the walled and physics gardens, the Peach House Wood, and also the Bluebell Wood, the latter in which you will find nestled the beautiful newly created structure of Ty Dewin, the Wizard’s House, where we will base ourselves at various points throughout the day.
What to expect
This will be an immersive and interactive experience, in which nature herself will gently elicit her healing effect upon you as we move through the various teachings and wellbeing practices.
The first part of the day will be spent in the enchanting Bluebell Wood, a peaceful woodland full of paths that lead you through Oak, Cypress, Beech and Hawthorn trees, where you will find hidden log circles, and places just to relax and feel peaceful in.
Here we will connect to nature through energy healing, forest bathing, meditation, sensory awareness, and journalIng.
There will be a break for lunch, and in the afternoon we will make our way over to the physics and walled garden areas, before entering into Peach House Wood to learn about the folklore, natural medicines, and inspirations from the trees and plants that live there. Along the way, we’ll be deepening our understanding of why nature has such a positive impact on our health and well-being, and working with specific energy centres within us for helping to create new healthy energy flow that can benefit all areas of life.
Content of the day will include:-
Understanding the body’s energy systems and how these are connected to the health of the physical body.
