About the Retreat

​

• Feel re-energised, more grounded, clearer, and calmer 

• Experience a deeper connection to self, others, and nature 

• Gain greater insight into yourself and your aligned next steps

 

This will be a slow hiking journey through a beautiful nature reserve near to Chamonix Mont Blanc in the French Alps. We will take our time exploring inner and outer nature, getting to know ourselves and the natural world more deeply and sleeping in mountain refuges. This is a chance to disconnect from the hecticness of everyday life, and to reconnect to a deeper place within yourself. You will have my support during the whole journey as an experienced life coach and hiking guide. As a small group we will share this experience and also support each other.

 

We will hike for about four hours each day through a beautiful nature reserve not far from Chamonix, France. This means approximately 700m vertical and 7km per day. We will eat breakfast and dinner together at the mountain refuges. Lunches will be picnic style along our route. At night we will sleep in mountain refuges with guardians, which means there will be basic beds, often in dormitories. There will be vegetarian and non-vegetarian options, which I will book in advance. We will travel together as a small group, but there will be plenty of personal time and space too. Each day there will be guided meditations, nature connection practices, 1-2-1 and group coaching, beautiful views, group sharing and more. I will aim to adapt the pace of exploration to support each person and the whole group as best as possible.
