Are you yearning for some time and space for you and your writing? Do you need some support, nurturing and energetic inspiration?  If that’s the case, this retreat could be perfect for you.  We will make sure you leave brimming with confidence, knowledge, still under the magic spell, and ready to move forwards. We will remind you why you fell in love with writing stories in the first place and how important it is to keep telling them.

​

On this retreat you will participate in optional group workshops, one-on-one mentoring and feedback sessions, and abundant wild writing in the beauty of the Himalayas. At night we will light a fire and tell our stories with only the mountains to hear us. With open hearts and optional marshmallows, new friendships and a support group will form. My feedback will be on tap and so will my enthusiasm.  I will also offer a 50% discount on any editorial service on our return. After all, at this point I will know your story as well as you do.  I will be your greatest cheerleader.

Himalayan Writers Retreat

Alongside daily yoga sessions suitable for any level, there will be an opportunity to understand meditation and breathing techniques to aid relaxation, energy and focus.  I can personally advocate for all of it. I am a productive procrastinator and struggle with sitting still long enough to focus. But I have learned that these are the things that ground me. There’s even yoga for full moon madness if any of you can relate.

​

There will be delicious, traditional healthy food sourced locally and onsite massages to sooth those aching shoulders. Inspirational excursions will also be available. If you’ve always dreamed of seeing the Taj Mahal or dipping a toe in the Holy River Ganges, now is your chance.

This retreat is for enthusiastic writers of any level, we love you all. You will leave this sacred, soulful place stronger, happier, more at peace, full of energy and ready to write with confidence.

And when the retreat is over, why not stay on for a while. I mean, you’re already there? Every day spent in India is another adventure. Rishikesh is only a few hours away from the retreat via a very cheap taxi ride. If you’re interested in doing more yoga you’ll find it here. Every evening at dusk, a powerful and uplifting spiritual ritual called The Ganga Aarti is performed at the three holy cities of Haridwar, Rishikesh and Varanasi. I travelled here a couple of years ago, heavy with unresolved grief, and set it free with a candlelit blessing in the river. There is kindness everywhere. If you can get to this place, it’s always worth it.

 

Anyway, come to my retreat, it’s going to be brilliant.
