1-Day Forest Retreat with Nikita
Step Away from the Noise. Come Home to Yourself.
You’ve achieved, you’ve endured, you’ve questioned.
Now, you’re ready to listen, to the whispers of your soul.
This retreat is for the seeker in you.
The part that’s curious about life’s deeper meaning.
The part that’s tired of chasing external success and longs for inner peace.
Whether you’re navigating a life transition, healing from emotional or physical disease, or simply feeling the call to reconnect with something greater this day is your invitation.
Forest bathing Retreat
This isn’t just a retreat; it’s a turning point.
An immersive one-day experience designed for those ready to reset, restore, and realign. Nestled in the peaceful forests of Berkshire, this retreat combines the Japanese practice of Shinrin-yoku (forest bathing) with gentle movement, breathwork, and energy healing to help you release the noise of daily life and reconnect with your authentic self.
Through guided nature connection, chakra balancing, and reflective workshops, you will move from a state of “karma to dharma,” gaining the clarity needed to navigate life’s transitions. You’ll leave with a renewed sense of purpose, a calmer mind, and practical spiritual tools to maintain your inner peace long after the day concludes.

They Took One Day for Themselves. Here’s What Happened Next
I was in desperate need of a holiday but couldn’t take time off work or afford one. So I booked onto this forest retreat and oh my gosh! I had no idea I would come away with so many tools to use in my daily life. I feel so empowered now, I am determined to use them so I don’t feel that run down again.
What a perfect day with inspirational women I’d never met before but connected with in so many ways. Nikita was an amazing host and faciliitator and she made the day just flow with her words of wisdom. I felt a different person when I went home – I was rejuvenated and serene. I am so, so glad I went on this retreat day and plan to do another one soon.
I feel so lucky to have spent the day with Nikita and such a wonderful group of women. I learnt so much, and my cup is now overflowingly full! Nikita has so much wisdom, knowledge and a calm gentleness in her aura. I can’t quite believe how much I received for the price I paid, as I can honestly say the effects were priceless.
I completed Nikita’s one day Forest Retreat and it was a lovely, interesting group of people. I enjoyed learning about the chakras, doing the meditation and having a taster Reiki treatment, along with making a vision board for my future. Nikita is very calm and knowledgeable and I would recommend her retreat!
I attended her one-day forest retreat, which was a truly enriching experience. I learned valuable techniques to calm the mind and stay grounded in the present moment. Nikita is incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and inspiring, and I am already looking forward to booking another session with her soon.
I thoroughly enjoyed the Forest Bathing Retreat with Nikita and a small group of lovely people which was held on Friday in beautiful surroundings. Nikita’s calm and gentle manner, the meditations and creating the vision board allowed me the opportunity to recharge, refresh and re-energise. I felt calm and relaxed throughout the day and I am very much looking forward to the next event, thank you for a lovely day.
