Ayurvedic Welcome Drink and Introduction
10:00 AM - The Welcome
You arrive, we begin with our signature Ayurvedic herbal welcome drink - a warming seasonal blend chosen to calm the nervous system and gently prepare your body and mind. This is your moment to arrive fully, meet the group and be guided through the beautiful morning ahead.
This will take place in the Garden or Saffron Room depending on weather.
Dynamic Yoga and Breathwork
10:30 AM - Move
"Your body remembers things your mind has forgotten. This is how it finds its way back."
Led by an experienced yoga teacher, our Dynamic Vinyasa Flow session is designed for all levels - no experience needed. We move with intention, breathe with purpose and let the body open up at its own pace. Breathwork follows - clearing the mind, energising the body and preparing you for the deep stillness to come.
Please bring your own yoga mat, water bottle and towel and wear comfortable clothing.
Immersive Sound Bath
11:30 AM - Be Still
"You lie down. Eyes closed. The sound moves through you and for the first time in a long time, you feel nothing but completely, deeply at peace."
A deeply immersive sound healing journey using singing bowls, gentle vibration and healing frequencies. Sound bath therapy has been shown to reduce stress, lower cortisol levels, improve sleep and restore emotional balance. You do not need to do anything. Simply receive and rest.
2-Course Ayurvedic Wellness Lunch
12:15 PM - Nourish
"Food that actually feeds you. Not just your body but the part of you that has been running on empty."
We are proud to be the first in Jersey to bring authentic Ayurvedic food to the table. Rooted in over 5000 years of ancient healing wisdom, Ayurvedic nutrition is designed to restore balance from within using seasonal, warming and nourishing ingredients chosen specifically for your body and the season. A two course lunch that heals as much as it delights.
Vegetarian and gluten free options available. Please let us know of any dietary requirements.
Om Chanting and Mindful Garden Walk
1:45 PM - Ground
"One sound. Together. The oldest and most universal vibration in the world - and it begins right here in our garden."
After lunch we come together for Om chanting - the universal sound of connection and peace - before taking a gentle mindful walk through our beautiful hotel grounds. This is time to digest, to breathe fresh air, to feel the earth beneath your feet and to simply be. No agenda. No rush. Just presence.
Kirtan Closing Ceremony
2:30 PM - Come Together
"Voices rise. Something opens. You did not expect to feel this - but here you are, and you will carry it home long after today."
We close together with a deeply moving Kirtan ceremony - an ancient practice of devotional sound and chanting that brings the whole group together in one powerful, emotional closing. Led by Kirtan Collective Jersey, this is the moment people talk about for weeks after. The moment the morning becomes a memory you hold.
Herbal Tea, Snacks and Each Other
3:15 PM - Us Time
"The conversations that happen over herbal tea after a morning like this - these are the ones you remember."
We close with something simple and deeply human - herbal tea, lighter snacks and time together. No agenda. Just people who have shared something beautiful, talking, laughing and spreading positive energy with each other. This is the community we are building in Jersey. And it starts here.
Closing at 4:00 PM. A wellness mini book will be given to every guest on departure.
Leave restored, rebalanced and reconnected.
Join us for the morning of the summer solstice and come together in celebration of light, stillness and renewal. Inspired by Ayurvedic wisdom and the natural energy of the season, this intimate retreat is limited to just 30 guests, with every moment thoughtfully crafted to help you pause, reconnect and embrace the longest day of the year.
