Yoga Retreat - Spring Awakening

Retreat Overview

As winter fades and the days grow longer, spring invites us to awaken, recharge, and reconnect.

Join us for a nourishing weekend retreat aligned with the Spring Equinox — a time of balance, renewal, and fresh energy.

What to Expect

Through yoga, breathwork, and guided reflection, you’ll shake off winter heaviness, re-energise your body, and create space for stillness and clarity.

Whether you’re deepening your practice or simply taking time to reset, this retreat offers the chance to feel lighter, clearer, and ready for what’s next.

Your Guides

The setting:

Newbattle Abbey offers a truly magical backdrop. With 125 acres of parkland, ancient woodlands, and tranquil gardens, it’s the perfect place to feel calm, grounded, and immersed in nature.
