Saturday 3rd May 2025

The My Kind of Retreat is a bespoke mindfulness retreat created for you to let go of the stress and busyness of day-to-day life and switch off and unwind in the most stunning setting at Grey Barn, Byfield set in the beautiful Northamptonshire countryside.

Under the guidance of Holly Smith, mindfulness teacher, and creator of My Kind of Mind, and local experts in their fields you will have the opportunity to experience mindful meditation bringing your attention into the present moment, relaxing yoga flow practices, intention setting and release fire pit ritual and a deeply healing sound bath with crystals.

In addition choose our VIP ticket and feel truly cared for through a beautifully created hands-on holistic treatment with the wonderful Emma of “Wren Holistics”. A simply restorative experience.

Nourishing, delicious healthy morning snacks, lunch, cake and drinks are included.

My Kind of Retreat is suitable for all abilities and no previous experience is needed, however, due to health and safety reasons sadly My Kind of Retreat is not suitable for ladies who are pregnant.

By the end of the day, expect to feel calm, relaxed, and restored.

Praise for Previous Retreat Days

“The Retreat was an absolutely magical day. I felt really safe and welcomed from the moment I walked into the venue. Holly, the rest of the team, and all the attendees were so nice. Each session was easy to follow and stretched my mind and my body just the right amount. I particularly loved having lunch with some of the amazing women I met at the Retreat and the sound bath at the end of the day. Surreal experience! I really recommend to add a treatment with Emma, if you can get your hands on the VIP ticket. It was so worth it. The snacks on arrival and cakes at the end just made the whole experience even more special. I cannot wait for the next one!”
