About Us

Healing In The Forest is a little non-profit retreat that's been created to bring community together for a beautiful weekend away. Our event is an intoxicant free space. This is something we feel very strongly about, so anyone caught with alcohol or non prescription drugs will be asked to leave. We ask everyone to please respect this and have fun the natural way!

Fingers crossed, we should be in for some nice weather! The event starts at 1200 on July 13th, and ends on the 14th at 1000am.  You can arrive from 1030am on the Saturday to get your tent/van pitched, but everyone must be off site by 1030am the next day. There will be some shuttle runs from Andover to the site, to help those coming by public transport, or staying in town.

Set in the stunning location of Harewood Forest near Andover, this is the perfect setting for some deep relaxation, meditation and healing. In between workshops, feel free to explore the beautiful surroundings and enjoy the peaceful calm away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. 

Sommer will be bringing her expertise in vibrational therapy with some small groups of tuning fork sessions. Expect to come away feeling retuned and relaxed.

Louisa will hold a somatic movement and dance intro workshop to moving with the fluids of the body. The body is made of 60%liquid, inc blood, spinal, lymphatic fluids etc, each with a different quality and energy, and the potential to inspire our experiences. This workshop will give you a taste on moving our awareness of these fluids, & integrating it through dance. www.louisawhitesomatics.com

Sherryann will be holding a beautiful Soul Circle, helping people reconnect with their inner soul self, mental body and astral body. Using violet flame exercises, affirmations, frequency meditations and grounding with the earth star chakra, this mini workshop will help raise your vibration and eliminate some fear energy and self doubt. www.facebook.com/sherryannworth

Carolina is going to lead an OM chanting circle for us. Love is meant to be shared, and chanting OM brings people together to share the positive vibrations of OM and their love for Mother Earth. OM is the universal sound of creation, the highest and purest vibration that exists. When we practice OM, we practice padaseva bhakti - the expression of Divine Love and service to all beings.

To close the Saturday night, Angie will take us on a 432hz sound immersion following a blue lotus infused Cacao ceremony. Using planetary and chakra crystal singing bowls, koshi chimes and drums, Angie will guide you on a beautiful deep meditative journey, guaranteed to relax you before going to sleep for the night under the stars.  

On the Sunday morning, Jim will bring the retreat to a perfect end with a beautiful gong bath. After getting a small bite to eat for breakfast, everyone will be able to participate in this final workshop of the weekend before heading home. 

Along with the free workshops, there'll be other activities to engage in, and some will incur a small charge, so please remember to bring some cash with you for these. There's going to be a Reiki share, Indian Head Massage, and stalls with goods for sale.

If you find time between workshops, why not take a walk through the trees to find a quiet spot for some yoga or qi gong. You can attend as many or as few workshops as you want - the ticket price is inclusive of everything. However, there will be some private one-to-one sessions available for a small charge, so please bring some cash just in case!

To find us, please follow SP11 6LE on your sat nav which takes you to some bungalows -- 300yards past the bungalows on the left is a track (the sign on the right points you to TREERUNNERS -- it's very small, so keep your eyes open for it!) Drive carefully down this (bumpy)track for 1.5km (approx10 mins) and you'll find us in the trees.

The campsite is small but adequate, so this means we have to say no to any bell tents or yurts and encourage everyone wishing to camp to bring small tents. For those bringing vans or campers, sadly anything larger than a transit cannot stay on site overnight as the car park is only large enough for a certain amount of vehicles. It's for this reason that we've had to charge those bringing vans.

If camping isn't your thing, or you simply prefer a comfortable bed for the night, there is plenty of accommodation within a few miles of the site. Try searching for Premier Inns, Travelodge or Wetherspoons in Andover, or have a look on Air bnb for a place to stay.

If anyone wants to volunteer for an hour or two in exchange for a £25 discounted ticket, please get in touch! We need car parking attendants, first aiders, help with setting up the site and other little jobs. Our team is a fun, friendly easy going group and would greatly appreciate any help. Email healingintheforest@mail.com and we'll get back to you with more details.
