Phoenix Nest Retreats

You are WELCOME here…
One-to-one immersions and retreats
Give yourself space to breathe, dream, vision & write
‘I feel deeply accomplished. The view, the silence, the overall sense of tranquility nourished my body, heart and soul. I felt held and supported. Sincere gratitude.’ CL
My beautiful home ‘Phoenix Nest’ in Saltdean near Brighton is now open for one to one immersions and small retreats.
I’d love to welcome you here! TO BOOK A FREE CALL TO CHAT ABOUT A PHOENIX NEST RETREAT OR IMMERSION click HERE
This is for you if you:

- want to come for a tailor-made writing retreat to begin, complete or simply work on a writing project in a nourishing, peaceful environment close to the South Downs and the sea;
- want time out to reflect, dream, vision or mark a particular time or event in your life- a space & time to ground, be supported and co-create a personal rite-of-passage ceremony;
- would like some safe, nurturing space to explore how you can reconnect with your creative and erotic life and feel more alive.
All retreats and one to one immersions are bespoke and made to fit your needs and wishes.
Retreats can include coaching session(s), bodywork, breathwork or massage, and/or bespoke ritual/ ceremony. (for more info on this see here )
Phoenix Nest is a beautiful space to dream, vision and write!
‘You have truly created a powerful alchemical container of rebirth with Phoenix Nest that holds one in that transformation. Thank you for opening your home to me. I deeply cherish and honour every moment I had here with you, Sami and the snakes.’ Isik Tlabar, Transformational Coach

About Writer’s Retreats:
Whether you are a budding writer or have been writing all of your life, you are warmly welcome at Phoenix Nest!

Maybe you are pondering a new project, need to choose between several ideas, are keen to get over writer’s block, dig out an old draft and finally finish it or edit that tenth draft….
Anything you write, or plan to write, is welcome. And as a writing coach and an author of two published historic novels I am here to support you!
I won’t read, edit or critique your work, but we will have space to explore any burning aspects of the process that come up for you, such as procrastination, writer’s block, too much material, difficulties completing, where to next etc.
You will have plenty of time to write for yourself in a nourishing, comfortable environment and also receive individual attention from me in the form of coaching, and if wished, embodied tools such as ‘writing from the body’ exercises or a breathwork session.
And of course, lots of informal chats!
Phoenix Nest and the surrounding gentle hills of the South Downs and the sea are beautiful environments that will deeply nourish you.
I can point you to local walks- horses, sheep and two llamas are just a short stroll away.
Phoenix Nest is in a col-de-sac and the South Downs path runs from the end of the road- and there are lovely places at the local beach.
Example of a two night/three day retreat or immersion:
Day 1:
- Arrival in the afternoon from 3pm.
- Settling in at Phoenix Nest and surrounding.
- Intro coaching session with me one to one.
- Dinner around 7pm
- chilling out and, if you like, ‘ask the author’ informal chat re. writing, publishing etc
Day 2 :
- breakfast (you help yourself from buffet)
- writing time, or however you would like to use the time
- lunch around 1pm
- free time, more writing, walks, swims
- one to one writing from the body session/ breathwork
- Dinner 7pm
- informal chilling out, swim and sauna, sharing of writing etc.
- if it is a rite-of-passage immersion, we will co-create a ritual
Day 3:
- breakfast
- check out coaching session- including visioning- where to go from here.
- lunch
- leave afternoon by 3pm.
I have some flexibility with timings around lunch and dinner and can accommodate special food requirements.
Practicalities:

I have several spaces for accommodation:
1. ‘Octopus’–downstairs in the house, bedroom 1, southern facing, cosy- small double bed, desk.
2. ‘Mermaid’ – upstairs in the house, bedroom 2- also southern facing, light, large double bed, desk
If we were to do any bodywork/ breathwork or rituals, we will use the Temple/Cabin at the bottom of the garden. It is quite large (25square metres) surrounded by lush garden and beautiful views.
There is a lovely spacious living room, decking and spaces in the garden to sit and a sauna you can use.
You can help yourself to breakfast and we will have lunch and dinner together (unless otherwise wished).

Please note: I have a cat, called Sami- although I keep the bedrooms cat-free and the cabin, he is in the house.
I also have a Royal Python called Syd, he is in a vivarium. Should you want to meet him, and possibly handle him we can chat about this. Depending on when he is feeding and shedding this might be possible.
**If you would like to come to the retreat with a friend or partner, this is possible too.**
I feel so much more calm, peaceful and energised. The energy here has inspired many chapters for my book. Eva is s lovely and welcoming and the food is delicious.’ Kirsty Yogini
