https://tree-space.lodgify.com/ Nic has a 200 hour yoga teaching diploma accredited by the internationally recognised Yoga Alliance.

A bespoke retreat haven nestled under giant beech trees on the Surrey, Hampshire, West Sussex border where your uniqueness is met with curated offerings during your stay. She teaches Hatha and Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga. She is passionate about the mind/body/spirit connection which reveals itself in respiration, posture, movement and muscle tone. With 8 years' well-being experience (emotional coaching, level 3 reiki, taoist massage), Nic incorporates her sensitivity, knowledge and intuition to transmit the ancient yogic practices of pranayama, asana, meditation and philosophy. The classes will hopefully provide a space from everyday routine, a moment to try and let go of the mind, in order to re-meet life from a truer to self perspective. She has led children's movement/mindfulness classes over the years, and has experience teaching French and English to children too. Being 'Mum' to 3 children of her own in this screen-focused age, has highlighted the need for, and benefits of, taking time out from this inactive, artificial lifestyle. She takes great joy in sharing her experience, and in learning from each and every being she meets. She is currently studying anatomy and physiology with the London School of Biodynamic Psychotherapy and regularly attends classes and courses pertinent to the moment for her. She is deeply grateful to her teachers, past and present: Nieves Lahuerta, Raquel Alves, Richard Freeman, Elie l'Antoine, Nathalie Crocetti, Celine Hellegouarch, Elaine Moellers, Matthieu Charton, Michael Gallasch, Sabine Nguyen.

📖 There are a lot! of books next to my bed - therapy / work related, hobby related, novels...

🤓 I used to be a complete sucker for books and have far too many as I used to turn to them for answers to life.

Photo 5 is what I've accumulated through years of yoga teacher training, emotional coaching and 4 years of biodynamic psychotherapy training. There's another shelf with all my French and Italian dictionaries and reference books from my translation days.

💗 Now that I feel and trust my inner knowing better, I wait for an impulse from within and then find a book to nourish my curiosity.

🌿 I've thoughtfully curated the books in Tree Space Retreat too - I hope there's something for everyone (who likes books, that is) to enjoy during their rest and restoration time here.

And I'll let you in on a secret. A real (not) guilty pleasure of mine is to go to my local independent bookshop, , before each break I take, to choose a novel to sink into when there are no work or writing demands.

📖 How about you? What are books for you? And do you have a book related (not) guilty pleasure?
🎄Or a recommendation for my Christmas break read? Pop it in the comments.

With Curiosity arising from an impulse from within.
Nic 💚

🖤 No black Friday at Tree Space Retreat 🖤

😌 Instead we offer the gift of rest and time out in nature.

🎁 A gift which speaks your care and reflection in choosing the gift your partner, daughter, sister... needs and will cherish.

💚And which shows you really see and appreciate them for all they are, all they do.

🌿 A gift of connection too - an opportunity for them to reconnect deeply with themselves or with you.

A meaningful gift from your heart to theirs.

❤️

Last weekend's guests experienced Tree Space Retreat in rain and sunshine ~ and clearly loved both 😊

We love offering our guests the 'outside inside' effect ~ this was one of our inspirations for the glass-fronted outlook ~ being with Nature even in the colder months.

❄️ Simply magical here at Tree Space Retreat this morning.

❄️ I love the Hush snow brings...
It's falling oh so gently and slooow.ly.
One can but slow down, contemplate the next step. And then reassess. And then feel into then.
I feel my body softening as a full breath naturally rises, peaks and moves through, gently resting at it's completion.
Bliss in my world in this moment.
Snow Blessings to All ❄️

💚 I find myself smiling in wonder after every 'lean-in' circle in Tree Space Retreat ...

🌀 Because intention + connection with nature + the space + the beings present each time = a life-affirming, cup-filling elixir.

🍂 And this one was no different. A gentle collaborative connection was present from the start and we had so much to share.

😌 We eased into connection with our bones, our core structure and solidity firstly with guided awareness and breath.

🪵Then intentionally through self-massage; the touch deepened our sense of ourselves and each other, we breathed easier, and found commonalities in our individual experiences and practices, a sense of unity through time, with the trees in their leafless bone selves too.

🌿 'Reconnected', 'just what I needed', 'reactivating' were words which came as we closed our circle, nourished and restored for the new week.

🙏Gratitude to those who were present and shared themselves.
These circles in Tree Space Retreat are now pausing through the winter months. Spring dates tbc when it's time 🌱

🌀 The primary personality is the healthy aspect of each person, which can become lost, hidden, confused under the secondary, defended, shadow personality, which does its utmost to protect the primary from harm and pain, but which can lead to limiting an expansive life.

💚 These are Gerda Boyesen's words to describe this core principle in biodynamic psychology, the body psychotherapy modality she founded in the 70s.

✨ In biodynamic work, the therapist encourages each client's unique primary essence to re-emerge; it is this part of each person which knows how to heal, grow and to live one's full potential.

🌟 Because, really, who better than ourselves to guide us to a life of pleasure, fulfillment, joy and protection for ourselves, one another and our precious planet, with gentle support to coax out even the most hidden aspects?

The sunlight dancing on the sea was in Nice where I spent a last summer hurrah with friends mid- October.

🌿 Please note the spelling of Kathrin A. Stauffer's name, which is incorrect in the captions.

🌀 Biodynamic Body Psychotherapy might help people experiencing depression, anxiety, chronic fatigue, burnout, autoimmune diseases, challenges through perimenopause too... And in a different way to pure talking therapies - I'll explain how another day (the clue is in 'body', working from the inside out).

💚 If you're curious to know more or about how I work, please get in touch - contact email in my bio. A combination of in-person and online sessions are possible.

🔥As we attune to the slower, darker time of the year in the northern hemisphere, we're meeting earlier this month, and on a Sunday to meet those who have week day evening commitments 🍂

🌀 These circles are for therapists, teachers, coaches, health workers, birth workers, mothers, 'givers'...

💚 An invitation to join a supportive community with people who recognise the need to fill our own cups so we aren't giving from a place of depletion.

Perhaps an opportunity to deepen qualities like grace, equanimity, presence, total acceptance...

The trees and I would love to 'be' with you.

An intimate gathering of 6, let me know soon if you'd like a space.

Much Love
Nic 💚

Good morning 🌞

🌿 I'm Nic and I'm into the human touch. For me that means I take time and enjoy getting a feel for each and every new follower whose account isn't private. Thank you for being here 🤗

🦦 I'm about to take a week off from the biodynamic therapy work I do here with private clients in Tree Space Retreat (more about that in other posts).

🍂 I'm all about living rhythmically, in tune with myself and nature's cycles, as much as possible in our modern way of life. While daily moments to come into myself, to exhale, unwind, reflect and regroup are crucial to check in with my needs and inner cycles, longer pauses to rest and recuperate are integral to my Self.

🍂 An easy hop from London, lovely Tree Space Retreat will of course continue to welcome guests and retreatees during my break. She is basking in her autumn hues at the moment; a real feast for the senses.

We have autumn and winter specials on, which you will also find in previous posts and via the links in our bio.

We love feedback, it's what guides our next steps so pop a 🧡 or a 🤎 in the comments.

You being here just as you matters. Thank you for being you.

Warm regards and see you after my break.
Nic 🤎🍂🧡

The new moon night lit by our hearts, we were held safely and protected by the trees and the patter of rain on Tree Space Retreat roof.

We moved gently, shared, laughed, rested, hummed, drummed, and came together.

Thank you , and Stephen for sharing yourselves.

Our next lean-in circle will be on a Sunday evening in November - date tbc.
