点评:As a complete yoga novice and this being my first ever retreat I was apprehensive before going on this trip. However Dave and Hayley guided me through it every step of the way and taught me it was a Yoga was practice of more than body but of also mind, calmness, wellbeing and well life. During the weekend to my surprise I was able to improve dramatically in a very short time and by the end of my stay my lower back stiffness and pain had disappeared completely.
I thought I knew breathwork through my own journey but Dave and Hayley gave me a whole toolbox of breathing and relaxation techniques that combat fear and smash stress, anxiety, bodily anxiety pains, panic, and worry.
What I also loved as not being a 100% yoga person, I got to go on forest hikes in Snowdownia, see water falls, picturesque countryside and breath in the fresh air of nature. I also got make campfires and log burning, I got to drink morning coffee in an outdoor jacuzzi, I got to sit in an outdoor Sauna with an undisturbed Sea View, never had that before.
Due to Dave and Hayley's Wim Hof cold water breathing techniques we also got to perform a cold water dip/swim in the sea, which I always wanted to do, it was absolutely invigorating.
I am also not Vegan or Vegetarian so I was a little bit worried about that, but I shouldn't've of been the resident chef or wizard as I called her was excellent and the food she produced was not only inspiring but delicious.
The venue was outstanding, beautiful and picturesque, with undisturbed sea views, there was inbuilt cinema, Frisbee golf, basketball courts, a pool room and an in built pub, all of which can be done in the free time.
I came away form the weekend like I had chicken soup for the soul, my mind calm, my body lubricated and mental well being topped up. If I'm in the UK in 2024 I will be booking again without hesitation!
Outstanding experience!

我以为我通过自己的经历了解了呼吸法,但戴夫和海莉给了我一整套呼吸和放松技巧的工具箱,这些技巧可以对抗恐惧,消除压力、焦虑、身体焦虑、疼痛、恐慌和担忧。
我还喜欢的是,虽然我不是一个 100% 的瑜伽爱好者,但我还是可以去斯诺唐尼亚 (Snowdownia) 进行森林徒步旅行,欣赏瀑布、风景如画的乡村,呼吸大自然的新鲜空气。我还可以生篝火和燃烧木材,我可以在室外按摩浴缸里喝早晨咖啡,我可以坐在室外桑拿房里欣赏不受干扰的海景,这是以前从未有过的。
由于 Dave 和 Hayley 的 Wim Hof 冷水呼吸技术,我们还可以在海里进行冷水浸泡/游泳,这是我一直想做的,这绝对是令人振奋的。
我也不是素食主义者或素食主义者,所以我有点担心这一点,但我不应该成为常驻厨师或巫师,因为我称她非常棒,她制作的食物不仅令人振奋而且美味。
场地非常出色,美丽如画,享有一览无遗的海景,有内置电影院、飞盘高尔夫球场、篮球场、台球室和内置酒吧,所有这些都可以在空闲时间完成。
周末结束后,我就像喝了心灵鸡汤一样,头脑平静,身体润滑,精神充沛。如果我 2024 年来到英国,我会毫不犹豫地再次预订!
出色的体验!
