Summary
Join us for a journey of self-discovery, working with different energetic tools to help bring understanding and healing to your life path, all taking place within the dramatic Scottish Highlands.
From a higher perspective, we are all on the planet for a specific reason. We can become unhappy, feel unfulfilled, and may feel at a crossroads or lost with no sense of direction when we lose touch with what we're really supposed to be doing with our lives. During this retreat there will be exploratory work with tools such as crystals, Astrology, and the Bach Flower Remedies, as well as meditations and sharings, in order to help bring clarity over what your life purpose may be, and to help you to move forwards with more direction in life. There are also periods of free time in which to explore the beautiful area of mountains and forests surrounding us.

Where possible produce is locally sourced, some is home grown (depending on the season) and where possible organic.
Lunch is usually home made soup and we have a main meal in the evening.
