Alchemy of Devotion Retreat with Anais @unfurling.alchemy, Kiera @breatheintobohemia and Katja @katjaauroravincent
In the MWB Yurt from £111 (concessions available)
As November deepens and the year turns toward stillness, we are invited to lay down the masks we wear and listen for the quiet truths beneath.
Alchemy of Devotion is a winter day retreat, lovingly created as a space to pause, to breathe deeply, and to meet yourself with openness and care. This day is a gentle pause, a chance to loosen the grip of old patterns and allow what feels heavy to soften and be held with reverence. Through the alchemy of presence, devotion, and a touch of mystery, you are invited to explore your depths and arrive at a place of intimacy with yourself.
When you turn toward your own depths, you are invited to arrive raw, unmasked, and whole.

What You’ll Experience
SOMA Breathwork
Through music, guided meditation, and conscious breath, we will soften the noise of the mind and create space for the soul to speak. This practice invites an energetic shift within the body - clearing stagnant energy, restoring flow, and aligning us more fully with our true frequency. The breath, as a bridge to the subconscious, opens the doorway to deeper self-awareness, where masks can gently fall away and the hidden parts of ourselves are given permission to emerge, be felt, and be expressed.
Rose Alchemy
The gentle energy of rose supports softness, devotion, and self-compassion. Rose guides you to the heart and shows the strength that lives in vulnerability. This is an alchemy journey through the senses, an invitation to reclaim both the bloom and the thorns of the rose, and to honour all that you are, both tender and powerful.
Devotional Embodiment
Through sacred movement and intuitive dance, you are invited to inhabit your body fully, to express what words cannot, and through archetypal embodiment to meet your edges with honesty, tenderness, and devotion. This practice creates a space to explore the hidden, shadowed, or overlooked parts of yourself, bringing them into conscious awareness and integrating them with presence, compassion, and the wisdom of your body.
A Touch of Mystery
The day holds space for unexpected insights, gentle guidance, and quiet wonder that emerges when you turn fully inward.

Who This Is For
This retreat is open to anyone ready to pause, release, and return to themselves. No previous experience is needed. Whether you are seasoned in spiritual practice or exploring for the first time, you are welcome exactly as you are.
Come as you are.
Let your breath guide you.
Let the rose open your heart.
Let movement reveal your truth.
Step into the mystery and leave feeling unmasked, whole, and devoted to yourself.

The Space
Alchemy of Devotion will be held at MaxWell-Being, a vibrant and serene wellness venue nestled in a tranquil setting. The retreat will take place in MWB's gorgeous yurt, complete with a cosy fireplace that invites warmth, presence, and connection. Light snacks and nourishing soup will be served around the fire, creating a space to rest, share, and savour the quiet comfort of the season.

ABOUT YOUR FACILITATORS
We are Anaïs, Katja and Kiera, three keepers of sacred ways, weaving our threads of breath, sound, energy, plant wisdom and ceremony into one tapestry of remembrance. When we gather, veils grow thin and the masks of the old self begin to dissolve. Here you are invited to meet the wild edges of your becoming, to step across thresholds of healing and initiation, and to return to the ancient knowing that lives within your body and soul.
