Countryside Retreats

During our weekend countryside getaways, we focus primarily on helping you to practice self-appreciation, to explore your personal values and your sense of purpose and we explore with you the real meaning of love in interpersonal relationships.

To be able to love, we must be able to practice forgiveness, acceptance, kindness, and compassion on a daily basis. We must be emotionally intelligent, predominantly selfless rather than self-centered in what we bring to and what we hope for from our loving relationships.

We will help to guide you to understand how to handle expectations and set boundaries within relationships in a healthy manner. As we evolve as individuals, as we develop a deeper understanding of ourselves, of our values and our needs and drivers, so our understanding of love, of what we hope for from love and want to give to love changes as well. Part of this evolution is to set values that are deeply personal to ourselves and which genuinely inform our sense of personal purpose.

Reflection on our interpersonal relationships and the potential they may hold for us is a far more valuable exercise when informed not by shallow and temporary impulses such as physical attraction or admiration but by deeper, more permanent factors such as shared or compatible values or a commonly understood sense of purpose. Love that stems from these emotions and from the assurance and confidence that flows from self-understanding and self-appreciation is a love that is more likely to last – and more likely to be reciprocated.

Our first Countryside Retreat Programme will be held at Somerset, UK in 2022
