1st Creative Heart Retreat at Waterperry House, Oxford

Over the weekend of 22-24th November, 22 beautiful hearts came together to live as a family at the stunningly beautiful Waterperry House outside Oxford. The house is home to a gentle spiritual community - the School of Economic Science - and is a work of art in itself. Walls are covered in beautiful frescoes, highlighting the beauty of the world and demonstrating spiritual teachings. Outside, the gardens are filled with beautiful plants including ancient trees and fresh flowers.

We were blessed to enjoy divine Kirtan with Laura and Josh, Oxford favourites, and a heavenly soundbath with Bhakti Tara. Nischala and Vishwam offered a lovely programme of heart meditation, yoga, chanting, beautiful heart wisdom and radical self care - including making our own pumpkin facemasks. See for yourself - pictures below!

We all had such a wonderful time, we’ve booked the house again for next year. Can’t wait! Maybe see you there? Or, if your heart is calling you, you can join Nischala and Vishwam for the Gentle Heart retreat in Yorkshire this March 13-15th.
