What comes into your mind when you hear the word ‘retreat’? A 10-day meditation session, or a trip across the world to far-flung places? This book offers you the wisdom and practical steps to introduce the magic of retreating into your own life and home, whether it’s for a week, a day – or even an hour.

Using the seasons as a guide, each chapter delves into a simple theme to give you focus in your exploration, guiding you through various soul-nurturing activities and leading you towards a more balanced, happier version of yourself. From resting deeply to becoming your own coach and from decluttering your mind to working out your body, this book is a varied and beautiful collection of accessible retreats to help you restore, repair and rejuvenate yourself and your life.
