4-Day Anxiety & Emotional Wellness Retreat with Ho'oponopono in the Peak District

The heart of this retreat is Ho'oponopono, an ancient Hawaiian practice centred on forgiveness, emotional clearing, and returning to inner balance. Over four days, you'll be introduced to this approach alongside a range of supportive practices to help you understand and begin releasing what you've been holding onto. These include breathwork and nervous system regulation, mindfulness and guided meditation, energy healing sessions, crystal-based relaxation, intuitive card readings, gentle movement and grounding exercises, and workshops on emotional healing and resilience.

Each day is thoughtfully paced to let your nervous system settle. You won't be pushed into intense emotional release — instead, the focus is on creating the right conditions for processing to happen naturally. You'll learn simple, practical techniques using breath, awareness, and energy-based approaches that you can continue using at home long after the retreat ends. The setting supports this: you're surrounded by open countryside along the Pennine Bridleway, with easy access to walks and quiet spots to reflect.

You'll also have two one-to-one sessions included: a private energy healing session (similar to an enhanced Reiki treatment) and a personal intuitive card reading. These are described as quiet spaces for reflection and often bring a new perspective. Time in nature is a key part of the experience, with an optional guided walk on one day — though you'll need to bring your own lunch for that day.

The retreat is run by a father-daughter team. Master John brings a science-informed background (an MMedsci in Sport and Exercise Science) alongside his deep experience in Reiki, pranic healing, and martial arts. Nina balances this with intuitive, compassionate support and her cooking, which guests consistently praise. Together they create a relaxed, flexible atmosphere where you can talk without time limits and go at your own pace.
