Taking place at The Rook Retreat in West Sussex, the fantastic Our Retreat is hosting a free-of-charge day for women in remission to help restore mind, body and soul this December

Following the success of the first Cancer Day Retreat earlier this year in March, Our Retreat is collaborating with The Rook Retreat, deep in the heart of scenic West Sussex, for another free-of-charge event.

Hosted for women in remission to help restore mind, body and soul, up to 12 guests are invited to meet like-minded people and support each other through a day of peaceful activities.

Guests will share stories and experiences, listen to motivational, inspiring talks and enjoy a transformational day of yoga and meditation, woodland walks and sound therapy – as well as sitting down to healthy, nutritious meals.

Lisa Carolan, Founder of Our Retreat and Jemma Frizzel, owner of the recently refurbished The Rook Retreat, were encouraged to create an uplifting space for women to come together to rest and recharge, following their own lives being personally affected by cancer.

In the rural West Sussex countryside, guests will feel a million miles away from their everyday lives as they switch off and unwind in tranquility.

The experience will first begin with a freshly made juice to fuel the day, whilst learning how to make quick, healthy and nutritional meals with plant-based food influencer, Feed Me Momma.

Next, yoga instructor Jade McClernon, who prides herself on empowering women’s sense of body confidence through yoga and Pilates, will teach peaceful yoga sessions throughout the day.

Trained music therapists Tim Wheater and Cherub will also teach a sound healing and sound meditation workshop using gongs, drums and crystal sound bowls, to fuel an inner state of relaxation and mindfulness for guests through vibration.

Motivational Speaker Dr Sam Watts will also be speaking on the emotional effects of cancer and life in remission, designed to inspire supportive discussion amongst the women themselves.

Hosting a series of unforgettable wellbeing and fitness retreats each year across Europe in Somerset, Chamonix, Sardinia and Ibiza, Our Retreat aims to inspire women through hosting retreats in peaceful surroundings – offering women the chance to create memorable bonds and put themselves first through different healing activities.
