Wishing to overcome emotional disturbances, then Mindfulness & CBT Retreat is for you!
Away from the hectic schedule of everyday life, this Mindfulness and CBT retreat in the country will trigger dramatic changes in you.
You may be under tremendous pressure to improve your performance each day – resulting in exhaustion that may be interpreted as weakness – so you suppress your feelings and your issues. Not knowing how to manage stress would affect your body and mind. As your mind continually wanders…occupied by a myriad of thoughts and things to do, you may well have lost touch with who you are.
With our Mindfulness & CBT Retreat, you will gain skills to communicate with your body sensations. CBT intervention would assist you to be aware that your emotional disturbances are mainly caused by your own cognitive construct, not by the reality itself.
This Mindfulness & CBT Retreat is for people suffering from stress related issues, anxiety issues and other emotional disturbances. You will receive CBT sessions in addition to Mindfulness practices. Please make enquiry with your specific requirements to Etsuko Ito MSc. directly on confidential bases.

Winter in the New Forest
The winter months are a great time of year to attend Retreat programme. Tranquility and clear energy in the forest would be beneficial in practicing Mindfulness.
Being with nature looking up the sky, you might notice merlin, peregrine falcon and short eared owl making regular appearances on the heathland just in front of The Rufus House.
Winter Solstice this year is 22nd December, walk up Bolton’s Bench or top of the hill just in front of The Rufus House to take in the magnificent site of the sun rising on the shortest day of the year at around 8:06am in The New Forest area, which is also the first official day of winter.
If the sky is dark and clear, one evening, we recommend a short walk in front of the Rufus House to the top of the hill where you can enjoy 360 degree views. Why? The New Forest has some of the UK’s darkest skies in the relatively light-polluted south-east.
Retreat Meals
During your stay for Retreat Programme, we will prepare organic based healthy meals for breakfast and dinner. You will learn what meals actually mean for you to sustain your life, and experience true Mindful Eating.
