“And how light knew to nurse the growth, until the face of the Earth
brightened beneath a vision of colour.”
Come and celebrate the Solstice and the light of the sun during this time of peak luminous solar energy amidst the flourishing colour and beauty of Tresillian Estate in Cornwall.
This blissful 3 day gathering invites you to deepen your connection to land and love with nourishing yoga practices, breathwork, nature rituals, pilgrimage and ceremony.
Something I’ve begun to realise is that we don’t realise how much we’ve been carrying until we’ve let it go and sometimes we need the support of a loving guide and space to tell our bodies it’s time. As a facilitator this is one of my gifts.
Your Faciltators
Tracey
Tracey has been practicing yoga and meditation for 20 years and teaching for almost 10. She also teaches Pilates but her deep love (and gift) is the deeply healing practice of restorative yoga which has been the anchor of her life and business for over 15 years.
Tracey is trauma informed and trained in the energetic healing practices of Reiki, Andean mysticism and shamanism and has a deep love and reverence for Mother Earth and all our human and non human kin.
She offers a safe and nurturing space and teaches with intuition, encouragement, care, passion and humour.
The Venue
Set in 22 acres of stunning gardens, Tresillian Estate is an 8 bedroom Georgian Manor house and 6 bedroom barn located near some of North Cornwall’s best beaches. The venue can accommodate 30 people but in order to give everyone their own space there will be a cap of 16 guests on the retreat. Most of the rooms will be allocated as single occupancy with 2 ensuite twins and 2 family rooms suitable for friends who are coming together. The houses and studio are all stunning and spacious allowing everyone plenty of space to expand and spread their wings.
The Land and local area
Located near Newquay and some of the most beautiful beaches in the country, the estate is situated in 22 acres of stunning grounds housing a lake, tennis courts and a Victorian walled garden growing fruit and vegetables for the house. Watergate bay and the beautiful beaches of Crantock and Watergate bay are all only 6 miles away with temperatures, all perfect for a cleansing dip in the sea.
Yoga, Rest & Ritual
Tracey is an intuitive, warm and supportive teacher who thrives on helping people realise their potential on and off the mat. Morning sessions are dynamic and fun, combining yoga, Pilates and other modalities to help strengthen and release energetic and physical blocks.. Classes can be challenging but are always held with love and humour.
The afternoon sessions are therapeutic and restorative in nature (supported by gorgeous Shanti Sundays props) and incorporate some hands on healing (if welcomed), scent, sound, breath work and Yoga Nidra with Steve.
Shamanism
We’ll create beautiful rituals for ourselves and Mother Earth throughout the weekend, including a group despacho (a living prayer from the Andean tradition) and a closing fire ceremony. Fire is an incredible ally that has the power to cleanse and alchemise all that isn’t in resonance with our true nature into the golden seeds of new potential.
