Join us in the woods for the day
Guided by Mother Nature Facilitators Emma and Hattie (above) and the more than human world, we will gather for the day in an ancient woodland and cosy roundhouse with a wood stove, near the river Wye, in rural Herefordshire.
Emma and Hattie as mothers are keenly aware of the need for a nervous system reset before the Easter school holidays. The need for the "The Calm Before the Storm", peace and quiet away from the ever present cries of "Mum!". Time for silence, connection to the seasons and ourselves, being in nature and connecting with others who understand just how you feel.
We will gather in Circle, to connect with the land & ourselves and will be exploring natural wisdom through embodied practice and using the Mother Nature Cards. There is so much to be learnt, reminded of and offering service to, when we come together in Circle, as women have since ancient times.
🌳Find space for rest, creativity, and transformation
🌳Reignite your relationship with nature and your own self
🌳Connect with like-minded souls in a nurturing environment

Plan for The Day
We will spend the day outside in the ancient woodland and in the cosy roundhouse with a wood stove, share our stories and be in a supportive and nurturing environment using artwork, songs, nature connection practices and guided visualisations for a deep embodied experience. We will spend time with the ancient trees and we will be using Mother Nature Cards to support us, whatever stage we are at within the fascinating, challenging and inspiring journey of Motherhood.
This retreat is for women only, although it can be challenging to find childcare, we feel that having this time without our children gives us the opportunity to dive deep into our own reflective and nourishing journey. If you want or need to attend with children, check out our Mother Nature Camp coming in May 2026 here where we will welcome families.
