Maitri Retreat at Wylder

11-15th May 2026
Wylder, Somerset

One day you wake up and realise you’ve been holding your breath for years.

You’ve been everything for everyone – reliable, capable, fine.
But something inside is asking for more truth, less proving.
For space to breathe and be seen.

This is your pause.
To soften.
To remember who you are beneath the roles.

We’ll gather in the wild green of Somerset – where mornings are slow, the air smells sweet, and nothing is asked of you.
Just space.

Movement, rest, laughter, quiet, connection.
A few days to land back in your body and be yourself again.
You don’t have to hold it anymore.
You just have to arrive.

Everyone is welcome. No experience is necessary.

How We Work Together

You are craving a reset – space to breathe, move and remember yourself again
You’re done with striving, and curious about what happens when you soften instead
You love the feeling of countryside calm: walks, wildflowers, firelight and stillness
You are longing for some nurture and connection – real, nourishing, unforced
You want to step away from the noise and reconnect to your body, your breath and what matters

What We’ll Practice

We gather daily for yoga, meditation, embodied rest, home cooked food and conversation – all invitational, never performative

Everyday

Constant input
Being “fine” on the surface
Overdrive, Busy, Tired
Old patterns on autopilot

What We Reclaim

Nervous system regulation – breath, movement, rest
Spaces to be seen and heard, without needing to fix or perform
Cold-water plunges, sauna, stillness, nourishment, laughter
Spaciousness to notice, be held and choose again

The Place

Wylder Somerset is a countryside sanctuary tucked away in the Somerset hills near Bruton. Elegant yet earthy, with gardens that hum with bees and long tables that invite stories and laughter to unfold.

Rooms are warm, cosy and beautiful – deep baths, linen sheets, quiet corners to read or daydream. The food is seasonal and abundant – vegetables from the garden, local cheeses, freshly baked bread and honey straight from their combs.

Here the days unfold slowly, morning mist, saunas, walks, fireside tea, indoor pool, wildflower fields and star-salted skies.

Wylder holds the kind of exhale that starts the moment you arrive.
