Bowen is gentle by nature, but the way we listen takes it deeper.

This Retreat blends refined hands-on Bowen, fascia listening, meditation, breathwork and calm intuitive practices that strengthen your presence as a therapist.

 

You’ll rest, learn, walk in nature, reconnect with yourself and rediscover the joy and purpose behind your work.

 

All the practical teaching is woven with nourishment, quiet moments and beautiful surroundings.

What makes this retreat different

A  different layer of the work

Beyond revisiting the moves themselves, we will also explore how to begin recognising patterns within the body — learning to notice the subtle signals that indicate whether a system needs reassurance, precision, or simply time.

This is not about adding more technique, but refining perception so that decisions during a session become clearer and more intuitive.

Many therapists already sense these patterns without fully realising it. Here we begin to bring that awareness into conscious practice.

When this begins to develop, treatments often feel calmer, clearer, and the body responds more willingly to the work.

 

If you’ve ever felt Bowen can be sensed, not just performed, you’ll feel at home here.

Eligibility: Bowtech Module 8 or equivalent.

Luxurious Surroundings

Imagine spending six days/5 nights in a magnificent Georgian Mansion, nestled in the serene beauty of Selkirk. This stately home, with its expansive gardens and soothing fire pit, is more than just a venue—it’s a sanctuary. Here, you’ll be surrounded by luxury, comfort, and the peacefulness you’ve been craving.

Nourishment for Body and Soul

We gather in the peaceful Scottish Borders with open hills, fresh air and a setting that naturally calms the nervous system.

 

You’ll stay in warm, comfortable accommodation, enjoy nourishing meals and have plenty of space indoors and outdoors to rest and unwind.

 

It’s a place where the body exhales and the heart softens.

This Retreat is by conversation only.

I like to make sure each woman feels aligned with the group and that the experience is truly right for her.

 

If you feel drawn to join us, book a call and we’ll talk it through.
