5 years ago today, I hosted my very first retreat in Bath 🥹 and honestly… what a journey it has been.
Next month I’ll be heading off on our 12th weekend retreat, with our 13th already fully booked for next. And somewhere along the way, I think we’ve hosted around 25 day retreats too 😱
But looking back through these photos today, it’s not the numbers that have made me emotional.
It’s the memories.
The people.
The laughter.
The friendships.
The beautiful places we’ve shared.
The conversations around dinner tables.
The early morning practices.
The walks, the dancing, the tears, the belly laughs… and all the little moments in between. 🥰
I still remember my very first retreat in Bath. I was excited, nervous and absolutely terrified all at the same time 😂 If I’m really honest with you……on the first night I couldn’t sleep, had a panic attack and ended up having to call on my mum (who was actually a guest on the retreat). She came and got into bed with me - I was 35 years old!!!
I don’t think I’ll ever take for granted what a privilege it is to create these weekends and bring people together. What started as a little idea has become such a huge part of my life and some of the people I’ve met along the way have become very special friends🫶
If you’ve ever been on a retreat or day retreat with me…
Can you spot yourself in the photos? 👀
And I’d love to know what’s your favourite retreat memory? Let’s reminisce below 👇
Here’s to all the retreats still to come and all the memories we haven’t made yet. 💫
Thank you for being part of it. Jade xx
