Upcoming Retreats

We hold multiple retreats all year round.

These vary from our Dreaming Signature Retreat that’s held every week, to our series of Specialist Retreats that are dotted throughout the year that are designed and curated for a specific purpose.

We want you to listen to what your body needs, whether that is deep soul exploration, connecting with nature, or simply radical rest. Below is an essence of what you can expect.

Browse our retreats below, and pick which feels right for you.

  • Weekly Signature Retreat

    Weekly Signature Retreat

    Held Weekly / All Year Round

    One day at The Dreaming will never be the same as another. However, there are structures that help us give rhythm to each day that establish a well-held, safe container.

    We want you to listen to what your body needs, whether that is deep soul exploration, connecting with nature, or simply radical rest.

    Throughout each day there will be a number of wellbeing offerings, ranging from the very grounded and practical to the deeply soulful and esoteric. You are invited to participate in as many or as few of these offerings as you wish.

  • Samhain Retreat

    28th October - November 1st 2024

    Embark on a 5-day journey deep in the lands of the Nant Catheon valley, where we walk in the footsteps of our ancestors, guided by the ancient Celtic traditions of Samhain.

    Here, in the embrace of this sacred season, we will weave new threads of connection with those who came before us, honouring the cycle of life and death, and welcome in the transformative energies of the spirit world.

    This retreat offers a deep journey into our connection with ourselves, the Earth, and our ancestors, honouring those who came before us to seek their guidance, and cultivate a profound sense of belonging within the greater cycle of existence.

  • Song of the Soul

    1st November - 5th November 2024

    Charlotte is thrilled to invite you to ‘Song of the Soul’, her new ground-breaking series of signature retreats at The Dreaming that blends research, ancient indigenous practises, and her personal experiences with sound to help you uncover your unique voice in the world.

    Our aim? Help you remember that you are wild. By harnessing the resonance and healing power of your voice, we will lead you through a journey to discover the story of you, past, present, & future.

  • Returning to the Queer Heart

    8th - 11th November 2024

    This retreat will be a reverent offering of love, drawing upon devotional practices for our queer hearts.

    You are warmly invited to join Sanah and Daniel as we gather and tend to the wounds of unlove, seeded by society and cultivated by the pervasive climate of I, me and mine.

    Together, we will be paying loving attention to processes of heartbreak, queer drama, community rupture, grievance and grief, with the loving company of remembrance, stillness, awakened care and spiritual practice.

  • Dreams of Ananda

    5th May - 9th May 2025

    We are honored to present this exceptional retreat, created in collaboration with some of the world’s foremost practitioners from Ananda in the Himalayas. This spiritual soul journey will immerse you in the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda, Yoga, and Meditation, held by the deep listening lands and offerings of The Dreaming.

    This unique healing retreat is crafted to restore your mind, body and spirit to a state of 'Ananda,' the Sanskrit meaning of Bliss.

    Led by our expert facilitators, The Dreaming’s Founder and Custodian, Charlotte Church, esteemed Ayurvedic Physician, Dr Harilal, and Ananda’s Head of Yoga, Malati Mehrish, this blend of East and West brings you the pinnacle of expertise in spiritual healing and growth.

  • Belonging Family Retreat

    29th July - 1st August 2025

    A radical new family-attachment retreat, providing two concurrent programmes for parents and young people, to learn how to reconnect with each other and the earth, in love, trust, and mutual respect.

    It is so often the case, that amidst the relentless pace of modern life, we can find it challenging to properly nurture the relationships that are most important to us: those within our own families.

“I embraced being solitary in nature and felt completely held by the land. I wondered through the forests and sang to the trees, cried, laughed, and came home to myself after what felt like a long time of feeling out of balance.”
