It’s a busy time at the moment. Everyone I speak to has a diary full of engagements, and any spare time is used to go to the Fringe to catch one of the hundreds of shows that are exploding onto the scene.
If you’re anything like me, you’re going to need a serious day off to recover.
Wild Hearts Retreat, presented by Sparkling Red Events and Roaming Zen, is a full day of resting, meditating, dancing, and creating, and is part of the 2023 Wellness Wander Festival. And it’s just what the doctor ordered.
Taking place in the beautiful Montacute Institute grounds, the full day Wild Hearts Retreat will have you smiling, laughing, creating & feeling so calm and refreshed, you’ll be talking about it for the rest of the year.
It’ll be a day jam packed with activities, including dance & yoga, mindful meditation with art, scrumptious nourishing food & healing for the soul. This is one of the events at Wellness Wander you do NOT want to miss!
So what’s the plan? Let me give you the run down.
You’ll start the day with The b. class®, a spirited women dance class that will help you step out of your mind and drop deep into the hearts wisdom. The class will finish off with a stretch and meditation session that will connect you to the earth and promote a sense of calm.
Then you can explore your creativity with a unique mandala art workshop that draws straight from the flora of the Montacute Institute. The workshop will be led by Sabi Designs’ Cathy Gray and Karen Judd, and will enable you to soak in nature whilst letting your creativity blossom.
In the afternoon, there will be a 60 minute Yang/Yin yoga practice led by Roaming Zen that will have you sinking in the stillness and surrendering to the traditional practise. It’ll take place under the shade of the majestic gum trees outdoors, and in the historic Montacute Hall. How beautiful is that?
This full day of nurture, nature & nourishment includes wholesome food throughout the day, brunch, lunch & afternoon tea, herbal teas, coffee, and a cheeky vino from Adelaide Hills local vineyard Mt Lofty Ranges Vineyard.
This year’s Wellness Wander event will champion even more local wellness practitioners and operators who are abundant in the region, with events that traverse the Adelaide Hills from Stirling, to Hahndorf, Mount Barker to Lobethal, Crafers to Paracombe and the greater surrounds.
