Re-Root at Lime Wood
Just as Lime Wood is enveloped by and rooted in ancient forest, our weary souls and senses are (like it or not) rooted in nature. Humans are just not designed to function at full pelt, 24/7. Our minds and bodies pay the price.
We’ve listened to what our guests are looking for: lightly structured chill time and making the most of our calm, healing surroundings while, crucially, having some creative fun. So here’s a series of re-rooting retreats, events and workshops that tap into the remedial powers of the English countryside.
Guided by the rhythms of the seasons and the healing powers of nature, this year we are immersing ourselves in our natural world; our home, The New Forest has been voted the No1 National Park in Europe and the ancient woodland that surrounds us has always been our source of energy and inspiration.
Join us at Herb House with Tracey Howes for an exhilarating combination of timed exposure in a traditional sauna and cold plunge paired with functional breathwork and the latest scientific insights, set outdoors in the idyllic Bath Garden.
To celebrate International Women’s Day, we are delighted to be welcoming award-winning author, and presenter Helen McGinn, Director of Southampton Women's Football Club Marieanne Spacey-Cale, and British shoe and jewellery designer Freya Rose to Lime Wood for our ‘Accelerating Action – How We Can All Make A Difference’ panel event on Wednesday 12th March.
Join Musician and Gong Master Rich Hale (ex-front man for chill-out band Kinobe) and our resident Breathwork Facilitator, Tracey Howes, as they collaborate for a deep dive into breath and sound.
Join our resident Forager Sammie Longhorn for seasonal foraging, Sammie is a yoga teacher, forager, and community herbalist. Arrive at Lime Wood for 11am and meet at Herb House to head into the forest for a one-hour foraging walk and head back to our glasshouse for refreshments and a Q&A with Sammie.
Join Lindsey from Dorset Forest Bathing at Lime Wood to celebrate International Dawn Chorus Day. What better way to celebrate nature’s greatest symphony than connecting with nature and these joyful birds? Having worked for many years with the RSPB Arne Nature Reserve, Lindsey will share her passion and knowledge with us this spring in the beautiful grounds of the hotel and nearby forest.
