Ida (my older daughter, who has just turned 11) first suggested we do a day retreat for mum’s and their girls so we could enjoy doing the things we love doing outdoors and get the chance to meet other girls and their mum’s who also love time spent outdoors - we are so pleased to see there’s been a lot of interest in the event - and we’re very much looking forward to meeting you on Sunday!

The day includes:

🌱 Warm and playful welcoming circle in the beautiful @lets.retreat yurts
🌱 Games, connection and laughter between mothers and daughters - getting to know you games and a treasure hunt
🌱 Making beautiful friendship bracelets with gemstone beads whilst discussing self care
🌱 Making self-care jewel boxes
🌱 Relaxing sound bath and a chance to try out the instruments
🌱 Potion making - mixing oils and botanical elements to make bath oils whilst considering self-esteem and affirmations
🌱 A healthy, nourishing and delicious evening meal
🌱 Closing circle and wish-making around the fire

Our evening meal is going to be a selection of delicious locally made quiches (either from Spring Gardens and/or a local vegan baker), a mix of salads and also fresh (hot) pasta with pesto, crusty breads, cheeses, meats and dips - for desert we have beautiful cupcakes made by Melody from Mel’s Bakes and fresh fruit. We will have teas, coffee and squash on arrival and available for top-ups throughout the event - we encourage people to bring their own reusable coffee cups from home if you have them, but no pressure if not, we have disposable cups too. Please use the form below to let me know any dietary requirements or any suggestions if you think your daughter (or you) might not like this meal - I want everyone to have a lovely evening and be well-fed.

Joining instructions:

• ‘Let’s Retreat’ Yurts are located just off the A27 in Angmering, drive to the location in this pin and you will see signs on the road to Let’s Retreat, parkup in the car park on the right and cross into the field with signs to the yurts - https://maps.app.goo.gl/mMSuSZvG5DZWUU549

• Please arrive at 14:30 for a 14:40 start time

• Wear whatever you’re comfortable in, it’s a relaxed day - likely warm with some cloud cover

• With the weather we’ve had recently I’d recommend bringing sun cream, hats and water (we will also have drinks available)

• We will finish up at 19:30 with marshmallows around the fire and sharing our hopes and wishes for the future

Please use the form below to help me get to know you better so I can make sure you have a special afternoon and evening with your daughter, and if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch. See you soon!
