Day One - Science
The first day centres on the science of breath and nervous system regulation, exploring how breathing patterns can influence performance, resilience and overall wellbeing.
Led by Jamie, the day begins with an introduction to breathwork, before moving into sessions focused on functional and performance-based techniques. Guests will discover how to refine their breathing to support energy, improve focus and aid recovery, alongside workshops designed to calm the nervous system and ease stress.
The day draws to a close with a restorative sound bowl experience led by Lime Wood practitioner Katie Hailey, followed by an extended conscious connected breathing session, offering time to deepen the practice and fully integrate the day’s learnings.
Day Two - Spirituality
The second day moves into a more intuitive rhythm, focusing on spiritual connection, presence and inner awareness. After a gentle opening practice led by Jamie, guests are guided through a deeper conscious connected breathing session designed to encourage release, reflection and emotional clarity.
In the afternoon, a foraging and nature immersion experience with resident forager Sammie Longhorn brings the retreat back into the landscape of the New Forest, inviting a deeper connection to the natural world and the seasons that shape it.
The experience concludes with a meditative gong bath led by Lime Wood practitioner Rich Hale, providing a restorative, sensory finale and leaving guests with a renewed sense of balance, calm and restoration.
