Yang to Yin. Attune and bloom in splendid Somers.
Friday March 24th - Sunday March 26th 2023.
Somers is one of Freya's favourite parts of the world, it is a happy healing place for her. We now have the privilege of being able to share its magic with you. Come join us for a fun wonder-filled weekend at the end of March.
The end of March is a period of transition from the more energetic yang seasons of the year to the more inward yin seasons of the year. We will come together just after the autumn equinox. During our weekend together we will start yang and turn towards yin, following the seasons. We will attune to Late Summer and prepare for Autumn.

Host.
Freya will be your host and main retreat facilitator. Her intention for this retreat is to help you find ease and balance as the seasons shift from yang to yin; summer to autumn. The autumn equinox is a period of strong transition. Her aim over the weekend is to help you find your equilibrium, including fun and wonder. "Let's all finish the weekend with a full and balanced cup."
Freya will draw on her personal experience as a yoga and meditation teacher, Chiropractor, and as the author of "Wonder Full Women. Attune & Bloom."
"A weekend well spent brings a week of content. Thank you Freya Bennett-Overstall for running and inviting us to your rejuvenating Wonder Full Women yoga retreat. And, Hepburn Springs for putting on a spectacular Autumnal show." – Val Zuban, past retreat participant.
Silent Disco with Soph.
We will join Soph, from Pohss studio, for her "New Moon Dance Party Cultivate!" A space to connect, open up, and call-in new intentions with our mind, body & soul - all through movement in a silent disco world.
