A Restful and Restorative Day Retreat in Callander, in the beautiful surrounding of the Trossachs.
We will be wandering through our creative minds and bodies, welcoming the turn of the seasons and the time to go deeper: the time of the burning flame of the inner self. As the months lighten, and the budding of spring arrives, we will embrace the time of Imbolc celebration - one of the Celtic quarter festivals - a time where the seeds of the winter start to emerge; and the time of Beira arrives and the Cailleach draws to her end. Together we will open and close our day in Mindfulness practice; and in-between come to our bodies with a gentle stretching and opening practice. Tania, our wonderful Storyteller will lead us through the myths and legends of this time and here is space for a creative practice. Or perhaps the weather for a gentle ramble around the retreat itself, with some time to spend by ourselves in contemplation. Nourishing plant-based soup and bread, comfy sofas around a burning log fire, with like minded people will serve to feed body, mind and soul. you'll be asked to bring a snack to share - something simple or complicated... all is welcome. Finishing our day together in a healing and restful Yoga Nidra - the yogic sleep, leaving us relaxed and balanced, for a refreshed return home. We offer this as an inclusive practice so you can bring whatever energies you are present with on the day - all things are optional. Timetable - ish10:30 - Welcome Cuppa and Mindfulness Practice

The Space
Trossachs Tryst is a holistic retreat centre that sits on the skirts of Callander following the river; 20 minutes walk from the shores of Loch Venechar, in the heart of the Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park.
Surrounded by ancient woodland with views of Ben Ledi, the Lodge is the ideal place for walking and exploring the outdoors. Inside the centre, there is plenty of space to sit and relax, either by the fire in the communal living room or sitting at the beautiful wooden tables in the coffee area. Our food is fully plant-based and absolutely delicious! Special diets can usually be catered for.
