4-Day Anxiety and Mental Wellness Retreat in the Peak District

The retreat runs over four days and three nights in the tiny hamlet of Wheston, set in the Peak District National Park near Buxton. Days are deliberately paced so your nervous system has time to settle. You won't be pushed to open up or forced through intense emotional work—instead, each day weaves together guided meditation, teaching sessions on how your body responds to stress, energy healing, and reflective time in the countryside. The core framework is Ho'oponopono, which gives you a simple, repeatable structure for forgiveness and letting go. Alongside that, you'll practice breathwork and nervous system regulation, try some gentle movement and grounding exercises, and have access to intuitive card readings and crystal-based relaxation to support your process in different ways. The hosts, Master John and his daughter Nina, bring complementary skills: John's background is in sport and exercise science, martial arts, and a long list of energy healing modalities, while Nina adds intuitive and compassionate support, plus excellent home cooking. Between sessions, you'll have free time to walk the local countryside, rest in your private en-suite room, or just sit with a cup of tea and let things settle. You'll also learn techniques you can take home—simple breathing exercises, meditation, and awareness practices that help you keep that calmer state going after you leave. Because the group is so small (one to four guests), the retreat can flex around where you're at, and guests with particular health conditions or mobility needs are accommodated wherever possible.
