Will be be taking Psychedelics?
No. We will be learning about how they work in the brain and why they have therapeutic value for some mental health conditions.

No, there will be no ‘trauma dumping’ sessions - this is a retreat where we will refresh and revisit how we look at things as nurses.

Do I have to do the activities?
No. All activities are catered to beginners and are optional. There are extensions offered should you want to extend your yoga practices. Alternatively, you are welcome to flow into your own practice extensions during session.

I’ve never done yoga before…
Neither had we before we started yoga! It is suitable for beginners and you are encouraged to work with your own body at your own pace. There are no competitions or winners here.

I cannot sit still for meditation…
That’s ok, because this is a pre bed, lying down with blankets on, mediation. An hour of cosy rest while you are warm under blankets and allowing your mind to travel. We encourage pj’s and bra’s are not required. We are confident you will sleep well after this!
