Join us for a magical journey in Cornwall this summer; a deep dive retreat and immersion into wild Nature, earth wisdom, sacred sites and sound.

Journeying with the celtic wheel, we will be deepening our connection with spirit and the natural world. With practices for cleansing, re-balancing, opening the heart, and mending our sense of belonging to the Earth. This is a week long retreat, living close to the land, being with stone circles, sacred sites and the waters; working with ritual, breath, body, fire, sound, and our native plants.

Held within a beautiful off-grid eco-venue nestled within woodlands, surrounded by springs and wells.Organic, plant-based meals, smoothies & local spring water.

This is a space where we may come together, release and cleanse; open our intuition, inner wisdom and connection with the living earth; share beauty, be inspired, and carry these seeds back out into the world.  

CORNWALL

Cornwall is in the very the South West tip of England ~ a shining land surrounded by the sea. Seeped in history, myth and legend, she is home to many standing stones, stone circles, cairns and holy wells.  With her springs, woodlands and fairy trees; vast skies, cliffs, coves and windswept hills, surrounded by crystal blue sea, this is a special place for journeying and attuning with the ancient ways of our lands.   .    

  RECONNECTING WITH THE LIVING EARTH: 

We are all children of Mother Earth, and connected to all of life. As humanity, we have co-created the world we live within. Alone, we may not be able to create ‘great change’, but we are drops within this great ocean and can heal from within, and transform our thoughts, words and actions. It is a practice and a choice in every moment to weave beauty, love, and seeds of hope into the web of life again.  My intention in offering these retreats is to create a space where we may deepen & heal our connection with self, nature and all our relations. As we heal, we bring healing to the Earth. May these drops of peace ripple out into the turbulen seas of this world.   

LIMINAL SPACE, STONE, SOUND & STILLNESS 

The retreat is a liminal and magical space that you are invited to step into, leaving the outside world behind for a little while.

We journey through inner and outer worlds, and the liminal space in between.

We will be working with ritual, shamanic journeying, self reflection and giving back to life.

We honour the holy tears that flow of the love and grief that are eternally woven together.

We release, mend, grow and remember, make beauty, song and magic together.

We will enter into the sanctuary of Nature, to listen and attune with her rhythms; hear the gentle voice of the winds, the waters, the birds, the songs of the earth.

In the deep silence of the earth, we can touch the sacred, the holy; listen to the ancient voices of the earth, sing with the waters, dream with land, vision with the stars.

“It is almost impossible to separate a ‘favourite part’ as the beauty of the retreat was its weave into an integrated whole; the magnificent land that held us; the deep gentle physical work with our bodies; the cleansing nourishment; the reflections within our circle of women; the prayer and remembering of the sacredness of life. In the miasma of forgetting, they are deeply precious reminders of who we are on this earth, what is our calling, our work, our joy.”  ~ Nicole

“Summarising two years of one-to-one lessons with Lana is a difficult task. Each one is different, fitted to the questions and concerns I’m facing or to an issue that Lana knows is meaningful to me. Yoga, meditation and energy work are the foundations of our time together, but these practices are interspersed with discussion, prayer, song, humour or simply learning to listen again.

Some lessons have been painful and there have been many tears; others have been filled with laughter and a true celebration of life. Through them all I am aware of Lana’s infinitely loving, strong, wise and non-judgemental support. She in turn reminds me that we are both in the presence of a far greater teacher. She challenges me constantly and slowly I’m peeling back the layers of ego, learnt behaviour and fear.

I come away from each session with a deeper understanding of myself, a stronger commitment to the Mother and a life focused on service and love, and more ideas of what’s possible. This is not an easy journey, but I continue to gather from Lana the tools I need to develop emotional and physical strength that I never thought I would have.”  ~ Ingrid

“Dear Lana,

Thank you for Everything. I honour the path only YOU have walked, that could lead to the transmission of these teachings the past 9 moons. YOUR way of BEING and SEEING and holding tender space is an example for me and a teaching in its own right. I struggled to find the right words to encompass all that you offered us because it was beyond words. It was multidimensional and other worldly. But I also want to point to how I truly acknowledge your ability to do both… to go DEEP into your own healing, transformation, death and rebirth, and full on SURRENDER to Life’s plan… while also holding space for our circle when the energies allowed. You truly Walk the Talk and for that I am humbled.”

✨🌹✨

“Special thanks to Lana for creating such a gentle, nurturing space. I find it hard to find words to express what it is that you do, it’s so nuanced & magical.”

✨🌹✨

“Lana, I could not be more grateful for your presence in my life. I feel so very deeply how much you care for all of us and give the right amount of support where needed whilst remaining respectful to the individuals path. I feel that humanity is not lost when the universe gifts us souls such as you. A more beautiful bridge has never existed. So much love and gratitude to you.”

“I am still basking in the beauty of our Dartmoor gathering…”

“This is the best present I have ever given myself, ever! I did not know what to expect, this is the first time I have gone on any sort of retreat and it was a life changing experience. The most outstanding feature of the retreat was how each day stretched us and took us deeper into our spiritual, emotional and physical cleansing, which led to amazing healing and re-connection to soul spirit in ways that I could not have even guessed. Thank you. You have set me on the path to living and healing, to discover and actualise my true path and life purpose. To reconnect to Spirit, Nature, the Ancestors and myself, is a gift that I have no words with which to thank you. Blessings and love to you always.” ~ Naluwembe

“The retreat was a life changing experience. Years later, I still carry with me the experience of the retreat, the medicine walk and the teachings I received. It touched and shaped my life and I am so grateful.”  ~ Sandra

✨🌹✨

“I am deeply grateful for your unfailing non-judgemental support, your wisdom and your kindness, all of which fill me with confidence and a sense of the possibilities before me.” ~ Ingrid

✨🌹✨

“A space filled with love that allows you to connect back with where you are from, creating time and room for reconnecting with your body, heart and nature, realizing what stops you from doing this more often so you can go back to the “real world” feeling a bit stronger and equipped to live a more fulfilling life more in tune with Mother Earth” ~ Wendy

✨🌹✨

“I feel that this way of teaching and understanding myself and my place in the world is deeply wise. I would like to learn more. Life is short and these opportunities to grow and heal are precious.” ~ Amelia

“THANK YOU for being beautiful ancient keys to the sacred doors of the soul… From my heart – I am very blessed to have found you. You are lanterns of warm glowing light, illuminating our paths to unfold as is destined. I now have insight into the beauty, grace, and simplicity of human nature at a deeper level – touched and embraced by this incredible Earth. I am in tune, lovingly honouring myself and have precision clarity. Loving whispers of Great Mothers song have breathed into my soul. I am home. Words are futile – experience is the path. Thank you so much”– Angela, London
