Saturday 4th March: An Evening of Kirtan with the Oh Shala Festival!!
Join Dom Hatcher and Emily Cobie as we chant and sing mantras together! No experience necessary! Singing is inherent within everyone who has the ability to make sound, and you don’t need to be a trained singer to give your full devotion!
Kirtan is a call and response chanting practice born and raised by India’s bhakti traditions, with Bhakti referring to devotion and love, and many of the chants focused upon the devotion and love towards a deity or the divine.
So bring your voice, instruments and friends and let's chant together :)

DONATIONS BEGINNNING FROM £15

Sunday 5th March: Reiki Masters 9am-5pm
Has your Reiki Masters been popping into your mind? Reiki chooses you not the other way round.
The main part of the Reiki Master training is for you to receive your Reiki Master attunement and to learn and practice how to attune others. You will learn and practice physic surgery and we will cover many other topics depending on the individuals taking the course (for example if you wish to teach the courses to others what needs to be included in the courses, energetic cord cutting, working with angels or spirit guides, inner-child healing etc).
If you love Reiki, want to go deep in the treatments you offer and you want to be part of the bigger cause of spreading Reiki to more people and to keep Reiki alive through the generations then maybe this course is for you.
Investment: £444
(You are able to make this investment back by teaching 1 or 2 courses of Reiki)

No judgements,
No masks,

Tuesday 21st March 7.30pm-9pm: EFT Tapping and Breathwork Community (every 3rd Tuesday of the month)
Community……In years gone by community was the mechanism from which we not only survived but we thrived. It’s ironic, that in these days of enhanced technological connectivity, where the World has become so much smaller, that we have never felt more alone.
This is one of the reasons why I created EFT tapping circles. Within these circles we find that which we lost, or maybe it is more of a remembrance of how these communities used to feel. How enriching and essential they were and still are. A reconnection. Within the tapping circle we gather with like minded souls in a confidential, supportive collective.
We Breathe - We tap - We listen - We drink tea
We see one another and acknowledge that actually we are not so different after all. Whether we utter a word or sit in silence, there is a beautiful butterfly healing effect that seems to take place in this space. There is a magic to this work that is difficult define. These meetings take place once a month.

Testimonials
Feedback from those who have participated in the wellbeing retreat days.
Vayia is one of the most kind, gentle and loving souls I have ever come across. Her retreat day was full of lovely people and magical moments.
It was amazing how we went through such a journey in just a day! We had Yoga, dancing mediation, sound healing mediation and to end a coca ceremony! Oh I almost forgot the amazing Sri lankan lunch that was provided too. If you are looking for a day retreat this one had everything and the location is simply beautiful! X
Char
In January I attended one of Vayia's Yoga Retreat Days & it was nothing short of spectacular. Having never attended a retreat day before I wasn't really sure what to expect, apart from yoga obviously :).
I was going through a tough time both mentally & emotionally and needed a day like this to focus on myself, de-stress and get out of my head for a while. The meditation sessions certainly helped with that & the sound healing was such an amazing, relaxing experience. The intention setting and cacao ceremony at the end of the day was so enlightening & it was in this session that I felt a real breakthrough.
I walked away from the day feeling empowered and at ease to move forward in my life. Thank you Vayia, I will definitely be back xx
Claire
I recently experienced the most amazing retreat at the Wellness Barn with Vayia... We started with yoga, followed by kundalini dancing which was incredible, dancing on the spot with your eyes clothes to uplifting music. I felt free and not a care in the world.
The day was finished off with an Cacao ceremony, I felt the benefits of the cacao on the following day also, a feeling of clarity and calmness. I would highly recommend this retreat and I will be going again.
Sallie
Vayia's wellbeing retreat day was absolutely amazing, the most blissful way to spend a Sunday surrounded by likeminded people, in a gorgeous location in the countryside. The day started with a gentle yin yoga class, moving into a powerful dynamic meditation. A yummy Ayurvedic lunch set us up for the afternoon with a sound bath and finishing off with a very special cacao ceremony. Thank you :)
