Yoga & Essential Oils

I absolutely loved every part of the retreat day. I wasn’t feeling too good at the start, but by the end I felt completely rejuvenated.

Yoga & Aromatherapy Retreat Day

Barcombe Village Hall, Near Lewes

A day to slow down, soften and reconnect.

Join Heather Deaville (SYT) and Claire Robilliard, experienced Aromatherapist, for a deeply nourishing day of yoga, countryside air and bespoke aromatherapy in the heart of East Sussex.

Held at the beautifully designed Barcombe Village Hall — with sweeping views across the reservoir towards Ashdown Forest and the Ouse Valley — this retreat offers space to step away from daily demands and immerse yourself in calm.

What’s Included

🌿 Welcome tea and homemade treat
🌿 75-minute mindful yoga flow (all levels welcome)
🌿 Guided countryside walk (or bonus yoga session if the weather turns)
🌿 Nourishing vegetarian or vegan lunch
🌿 Aromatherapy workshop — create two bespoke products
🌿 Restorative Yoga and Yoga Nidra for deep nervous system rest

The Experience

Your day begins gently, with tea in hand and time to arrive.

We’ll move into an extended yoga practice designed to ground, strengthen and soften the body. Options are offered throughout, making the session suitable for beginners and experienced practitioners alike.

After our morning movement, we’ll step outside for a mindful walk through the surrounding Sussex countryside. On returning, a wholesome lunch awaits, with time to relax and connect in a welcoming, supportive space.

In the afternoon, Claire will guide you through a hands-on aromatherapy workshop. Drawing on over 25 years of experience, she’ll help you craft two personalised blends:

• A bespoke bath or foot salt soak
• A calming inhaler stick for moments of stress, focus or fatigue

We’ll then weave your chosen scent into a deeply restorative yoga and Yoga Nidra session — allowing your body and nervous system to fully unwind.

You’ll leave feeling lighter, calmer and beautifully restored — with your handmade products to support your wellbeing long after the day ends.

“Thank you too for a wonderful retreat day. I loved it all! There was a good mix of classes. The food was delicious and there was plenty for everyone. It was lovely you had made it all and had obviously put a lot of thought into it. The sweet treats were really tasty and kept us going and the chocolate mindfulness exercise was good fun at the end!”
