🌸 FAQ 🌸
🌸 Who is this event for?
Women aged 18+ wanting to reconnect with themselves + their wild essence!
🌸 Who is this not for?
Pregnant folk and those who have just given birth in the last 12 weeks.
It's also worth noting that this is NOT a luxurious retreat - accommodation is simple yet comfy, there are compost loos (as well as a regular one), and everything you need on a basic level - in the words of many ashrams, 'simple living, higher thinking'. This is a chance to remove yourself from the busyness of city life and be closer to nature.
On the last day there is an hour's tidy/clean where everyone collectively pulls together to tidy the space. Most of the many + ongoing tasks that need to be done to ensure you are comfortable, warm + fed throughout the weekend are already lovingly arranged with our space holders, chefs + fire keepers but this is a collective effort and your willing to contribute if needed is appreciated.
🌸 Where is the event held + is it accessible?
At an incredible private space in Bridgenorth ~ full address sent on booking. Car sharing is encouraged where possible, a Whatsapp group will be created before to arrange this/general details. The venue is in a wild woodland area with unfortunately no ramps for wheelchair access and several sets of stairs.

You are welcome to arrive from 3pm onwards on Fri 9th May to enjoy woodland strolls + settling in etc ~ dinner will be at 6:30pm and our opening circle at 9pm. Please do your best to attend the opening circle as it energetically creates a container for the weekend.
