3 Night Retreat Reconnecting with Yourself and the Natural World in Spectacular and Comfortable Surroundings
These retreats will be held in the wild woodlands and mountains of Eryri and will take you on both inner and outer journeys by exploring the inner quiet that allows us to perceive and appreciate the natural world more fully.
Through mindfulness practice, discussion and walks through the spectacular Dyffryn Nantlle landscape, you will explore the concept of rewilding the environment and the self as an approach to conserving and healing the natural world. You will cultivate a more direct experience with Nature.
While not completely a silent retreat we will be dedicating ourselves to silence both in meditation and in developing a mindful presence in the wild.

Mindfulness and Rewilding and are both topics that are receiving much attention and interest in these ever-more complicated and confusing modern times. This three-day retreat will give participants an opportunity to reconnect with themselves and with the natural world in the spectacular yet comfortable surroundings of Trigonos, North Wales.
Contemporary interest in conservation in Britain, in Europe and beyond is being rejuvenated through the concept of “rewilding”. What can this mean, both for the countryside and to the people living within it? We will further explore – through mindfulness practice, discussion and through walks in the spectacular Dyffryn Nantlle – the concept of ReWilding the environment and the self as an approach to conserving and healing the natural world, as well as cultivating a more direct experience with Nature.
Open to all adults (individuals, couples, and friends) who are looking for peace and reconnection. You will meet like-minded people in a group of no more than eight. Newcomers warmly welcome.
