MEDITATION RETREATS & AWAKENING FOR THE SOUL
It starts with a feeling.
A Sunday afternoon when everything’s fine and nothing’s wrong.
And yet.
Or maybe it’s 3am. Or a random Tuesday. That moment when you feel like you’re standing on a rock in a rising flood.
It’s not that you need fixing. You just need to breathe. To find a place of peace for the lost, homesick, homeless part of you. To be loved and nurtured with words, food and stillness. To remember who you are and why you are here.
This is my gift to you. A few hours, one day, a weekend. Come as you are and leave lighter. And if you can’t quite explain why — that’s fine. That’s actually the point.
Belonging to yourself. That’s where your power lives.
MAGICAL & JOYFUL
Intimate, soulful retreats for 1-2 people.
Carefully manifested by me for you.
No crowds. No formula. Just a loving space to let go and belong to yourself.
A few hours. Day. Weekend.
There’s no right way. Just your way.
30 minutes from the Lake District.
Just an hour from Manchester.
Two and a half hours from London.
Close enough. Far enough.



SIMPLY WONDERFUL
“The flat was beautiful, the bed was so comfy, the Reiki was the best I’ve ever had. I could go on and on — but in short, the whole experience was the best ever. If you’re looking for somewhere to escape and just simply BE, I cannot recommend Janie highly enough.”
Debbie
Exquisite high thread linen.
Because that`s what I love.
I always take my time. This is one of the best bits.
Getting ready for you.
Fresh flowers by the bed, treats in the kitchen.
Everything done with LOVE, days before you arrive.
This is like coming home to a big hug.
Love always Janie x

Bread and Life.
Eating together at a table.
The ancient ritual of coming together.
To feed mind, body and soul.
SHARING good food and stories.
Celebrating life.
Showing gratitude.
Come with an appetite.

Fancy pants blue velvet pantsuit.
On a Tuesday because I felt like it.
This face. Seventy years.
Freckles, laughter lines, the whole bloody lot.
I like her now. It took me long enough.
I am HERE. Fully, joyfully, every day.
And you are welcome anytime?

Belonging to yourself is not a luxury.
It is not a reward for getting everything else right.
It is your BIRTHRIGHT.
I have watched it come back to people in a single day.
That`s why I do this.

Amethyst.
Violet, ancient, alive in my hands.
The bringer of clarity, inner peace and higher consciousness.
Everything is ENERGY. The universe is vibration.
You. Me. The stones. The air between us.
Feel the vibration.
I am so grateful for this magic.

Dusk heralds the dark.
Two small flames on my mother`s table,
as the room fades into night.
*The wound is the place where the Light enters you, said Rumi *
Of course it is.
Pain shows you the truth.
So, I light the candles to welcome the DARK.
And remember the souls of the dead.

What people say at the door, on the way out.
"I feel like myself again."
"I`d forgotten who I was."
"I didn`t expect to cry."
Nothing dramatic happened here.
They were just SEEN and heard, for one whole day.

Bread sits on the board like it owns the place.
Mackerel, chicory, pomegranate seeds scattered like RUBIES.
I stand back and look at the table before I call "lunch is ready"
This all makes me happy, so I take a photograph of it,
and I feel glad to be alive.
Then we sit down to eat.
My heart is full!
