Bamford Virtual Winter Wellness Retreat

November 28, 2020 @ 10:00 am - 4:00 pm

Inspired by Bamford’s belief in the need to nurture body, mind and spirit in tandem, the Virtual Wellness Retreat is designed to help you target four key aspects of your well-being: strength, energy, nourishment and peace.  

Bamford invites you to join them for a restorative day of connection, relaxation and self-reflection hosted virtually by their team of wellness practitioners from the Cotswolds. At a time when many are experiencing unease and anxiety, the practitioners will help you turn to the intuitive healing abilities we each possess to regain balance. Join them on a day-long journey to move through the winter more mindfully – from how we move and what we eat, to how we think and sleep. 

The Virtual Wellness Retreat schedule has been curated for all levels of ability and can be enjoyed by individuals as well as families and friends in the same household who wish to experience the retreat.

POCKETS OF PEACE: HOW TO KEEP THE MIND CLEAR OF FOG THIS WINTER 1.45 – 2.30pm
Anxiety levels have risen this year and this can take a toll on our health. When we’re stressed, the immune system’s ability to fight off antigens is reduced. That is why we are more susceptible to infections. Our resident yogi, Akshai, will teach you how to find pockets of peace in your day. You can practice these 5 min exercises every day to bring peace and clarity back to the present moment.

TEA BREAK: 2.30 – 2.45pm

YOGA NIDRA SESSION 2.45 – 3.30pm
The easiest way to keep your mindset positive and your days productive, is to ensure you are getting enough sleep in order to keep brain function high. Yoga Nidra or yogic sleep is a state of consciousness between waking and sleeping, like the “going-to-sleep” stage, typically induced by a guided meditation. There is evidence that yoga Nidra helps relieve stress and calm the mind. Our
Cotswolds yogi; Cristina, will lead you through this guided meditation, leaving you feeling refreshed and recharged.

Q&A AND REFLECTION 3.30 – 4pm
Our practitioners will use this time to answer any questions you have throughout the day, providing an opportunity for reflection and stillness before closing the session.
