Schedule

Arrive at the Space

Meet Trudi & Tamara and get settled into your accommodation. Explore the grounds and all the spaces where you can Do Less and Be More.

Do Less, Be More (and Later Arrivals)

Rest, relax, have a cup of tea, explore the space. The retreat formally starts at 6pm. We ask that retreatants make efforts to arrive by this time so as not to disturb others already on site.

Orientation & Sharing Food

Join Tamara & Trudi for the Welcome to the Group and Orientation to the weekend as we cook and share food together.

The team will share the immersive creative process for the weekend.

Option to use the fully functioning kitchen or we have plenty of BBQ Barrels if you prefer to cook over fire.

Everyone to bring food to prepare and share together (veggie if possible!)

Let's Move

Music, movement, dancing, friends old and new.

In the white room or barn if wet weather - or (fingers crossed) we can use the courtyard.

Let's meditate under the expansive branches of Big Momma

Breakfast

Take your time to have a healthy breakfast out in the sunny courtyard.

Do Less, Be more Physically Expanded

Mindful movement and stretching in the Courtyard.

Catching the morning sun and gently moving and expanding the body in a mindful tai chi style.

Suitable for all levels and abilities.

Lunch & Chill & Do Less Be More

Anywhere you wish!

Do Less, Be More Expansive with Creativity

Music, movement and creative mayhem in the courtyard (and other spaces). Come and play with paints, chalks or natural materials and find the media that helps you to express your experience in the best way.

We will integrate embodied experience with creative expression. Make mistakes, start again...enter into the creative spiral.

Let's find out how we can expand body, mind and heart through creative practice.

Courtyard

Do Less, Be More Reflective - Sundowner

Let's meet at the Unstables Cafe to pause with the setting sun and perhaps do some gentle tai chi movements.

BBQ Time!

Tamara will be making veggie skewers with halloumi and offering a range of BBQ goodies. We will provide a veggie meal but can have a separate BBQ for meat eaters (you will need to bring this).

Light a Fire & Performance

Our evening activities will offer a chance to engage with a performance and light a fire.

Courtyard or Barn

What do I need now? Do I need to Do Less or Be More?

See what your body needs ...... please be mindful of those who wish to rest if you choose to stay up. The team will be retiring at 11pm.
