A testimonial from my recent In The Ashes Retreat:
"This 1:1 retreat was everything I needed and so much more. Every part of the experience was thoughtfully tailored to me, creating a calm, centred, and deeply peaceful environment where I could truly relax, reset, and reconnect with myself.
Set on the beautiful shores of Lochcarron the scenery was simply breathtaking. Each day started with peaceful morning meditation which set the intention. The retreat included stunning mountain walks, a deeply restorative sound bath in the picturesque Isle of Skye, an uplifting 5 Rhythms dancing session and Qi Gong. Every activity complemented the next, helping me feel more grounded, present, and connected to myself. Kate also provided me with the tools to continue practicing once I’d left.
Kate's gentle guidance is rooted in years of meditation practice and time spent in monasteries, and her depth of knowledge and calm presence shine through in everything she does. She creates a safe, nurturing space that allows you to slow down, be fully present, and simply be with no expectation- as she reiterated: there were no rules.
One of the most magical moments was spending time by the loch outside her beautiful home, watching the stillness of the water, where herons and even a seal passed us by. Being surrounded by such incredible nature made the whole experience even more grounding.
During my stay I ate delicious food- fresh, nourishing, and nutritious—and every meal was prepared with love and care. Kate hosts with generosity and I felt truly looked after.
I left this experience feeling calmer, lighter, and with a renewed sense of balance, clarity, and wellbeing. This was a truly personalised retreat that met me exactly where I was, and I couldn't recommend it more highly. Thank you. "
