Will you join me for this special Retreat?

Our Spring Equinox Retreat ~ 20th-22nd March 2026 ~ invites you to step into Spring, re-energised and focused on improved self-care.

Human Beings are designed to live in Community. Yet many of us feel disconnected and isolated, especially when solo, we work from home or travel a lot.

A Group Retreat gives Human DO-ings, the chance to transform into a Human BE-ing!

To drop the mask,
Pause,
Let-go of all responsibility,
Speak our truth, be seen and heard.

Join me in residence at one of 's spacious and beautifully-designed calming venues in Chichester, West Sussex.

To keep this Retreat intimate, we are limited to 7 spaces ~ Follow this link to claim one of the spaces & join us! https://www.charlottewickins.com/springequinoxretreat

Today is Mental Health Awareness Day around the world.

* At 62 years old (oh yes!) I can honestly say - life is too short to be stressed out and worried about the future. Everything always works out, 🌈 in a way that we can learn and grow. Our job is notice when we are getting in our own way!

Did you know:

↩️ mulling over the past, ‘what ifs’, what could have been, feeds .

▶️ worrying about what’s coming, what’s next, feeds .

A Reality Check - the past is gone. We cannot change it.

So all we really have is this moment in time - the ‘precious present’, 🖐 the here and now... And this then becomes the place, from where we can change our future!

From my experience, if you have one foot stuck in the past … and one foot accelerating towards the future … then you are distracted, unavailable, absent and actually missing-out on living a far more balanced, relaxed, happier, ☯️ integrated Life.

So if we choose to stay in our negative mindset loops, then our future is highly likely to unfold, as we predict.

But if we choose to bypass our self-sabotage (oh yes!) and slow down the overthinking mind, we can attract abundance, develop empathy, compassion, avoid burn-out and enrich our life - beyond recognition … read on!

When we become mindful, 🙏 fully present, we shift our energy. We start to recognise - chance meetings, signs, ✨️ miracles that happen everyday, and how abundance is all around us.

So - actually becomes the precious gift 🎁 which keeps on giving!

I am restarting the Chopra 21-Day Abundance Challenge should anyone wish to jump in?? Mon 13th Oct .DM yes for more info and a Group Link . 🙏🕉✨️

It's no coincidence that Dr Jane Goodall connected deeply to chimpanzees. She came to know, that all living organisms are interconnected on many levels, as sentient energetic beings.

Sadly, to thrive in the modern world, we have often disconnected from what truly sustains us as human beings. 💟

We are taught to strive to 'make' a living within an 'un-natural' way of living - a matrix - keeping us tied to the profit chain and unsustainable consumerism.

But today there is HOPE ✨️ ( Human Opportunities for Peace and Equanimity).

There are plenty of real, good solutions on how to rebuild society, ( www.weall.org ) and as individuals, we can all choose to make better decisions and lifestyle choices, to help stop the over-consumption of our resources.

Not least to move away from the cruelty of our intensive farming methods... for the sake of our microbes, soil, animals, wildlife; and our 🌱 and 🌳 that sustain all living beings.

It's time to ASK our elected leaders to start to embrace a , 🌈 , to end wars, and stop measuring unsustainable GDP!!

To RESPECT nature above all geopolitics
( www.greenparty.org ) to help care for our planet and give all living beings HOPE.

😇 more than a heroine, a role model. Her peaceful 🤍 and soul ✨️ dedicated to what matters most, bringing hope, compassion, love to Life on Earth, knowing our place within nature, in all its glory! 🙏

Thank you dearest Jane, RIP 💟

And put a little love in your Heart x ❤️!

Like most self-employed humans, I'm 'switched on' most of the year, posting to have a presence, yet choosy whom I follow on media.

But as 2024 came to a close,  I stopped posting altogether. I just couldn't bring myself to even go here!

I switched-off, to start 'wintering'🎄, it's my quiet time of the year.

To practice what I preach! 🤪 I went on Retreat.

Slowed down, took time to contemplate my life, and this beautiful 🌎.

Enjoyed nature walks and by the sea, and a few plug-ins to my Tribe,   . 

* Total relaxation, *  reading by the fire, * journalling, * cooking fresh, heartwarming meals * a movie in the evenings * doing 'me' enjoying my own company. Lovely 😍!

A Retreat gives us time-out to reflect on our experiences, challenges, and life path.

And the opportunity to change direction, to embrace what we need to learn the most.

It's human nature if you wish to grow, transform, transcend Life's lessons, and evolve.

For me... reflection on 2024 reinforced my Gandfather's wisdom, 🙏 :

'Less is more'
  ..  helps me to create sustainability in my corner of the world, and when multiplied across the community, this helps foster peace.

'Everything in moderation' . affords me a wonderfully simple lifestyle, which also works for my Temple! '

Heres some wintering pics and inspiration...

Happy 2025! ✨️

If you choose to follow what brings you Joy, that's all you will attract, and a Good Life will follow.  🤗

Take heart, have faith 🙏... we know everything happens for a reason...

Humans revert to type, until we wake up, see the 'light', or are adrift, left behind, forced to confront our beliefs, conditioning, ourselves, to begin again.

- There will always be those with a different perspective to yours. Unaware of your reality, a different way of being, resistant to personal growth.

- Those who feel stuck in past, compared to you, looking backwards, can't let go, seem to apply the brakes. That's because you're now in a different dimension to them!

Hence Red vs Blue... ?

The truth is that what might be true for others, is no longer your reality.

So how do we deal with societal shifts in awareness? It's scary, especially if you can't see the 'wood for the trees'. 

It's important to release fear, anxiety. Trust ourselves to know the difference between right, wrong and to find compassion and empathy for all.

We are rising into a new consciousness, a more feminine paradigm, where the 20thC Patriarchal systems are no longer 'fit for purpose. So many people feel left behind, disenfranchised.

But we can focus on what unites us all!

WELLBEING ✨️

When you become 💯 Present, you take responsibility for your own emotional, mental, physical, chemical, and spiritual wellbeing - then you can take care of others and lead our Planet.

When we are Present, we find our true selves what brings us Joy, and where our true gifts lie 🤗

Collectively, we co-create, tap into love, raise our vibration, find a conscious way of living and being...

This is afterall what unites us. Our desire for safety, health, abundance and happiness.

We surpass Red vs Blue, become fearless 💥 even merge to co-create the colour Purple! 💜

We can even find ways to measure well-being instead of unsustainable GDP! ( .COM)

Then this chapter, too, will come to pass. You will have recognised your gifts, your part to play for the betterment of a peaceful life, society and an abundant planet. 🤞

HAPPY WORLD VEGAN DAY!!

My sister has been VEGAN for over 15 years. She's fit and healthy. And has recently become a Vegan Consultant to restaurants

And recently, after foot surgery, doctors could not believe how quickly she has recovered!

🥬🫒 🌱🥑🍆🍊🍌🥔🌿🥝🍎🫑🌽🥦🍋‍🟩🥕

So if plants have enough protein, for strong bones, and for cows, gorilla's, elephants to grow big and 💪 , then why do we humans continue to question this?!
..let's be curious. The meat and dairy industry don't always tell us the truth!!

I have been on my vegan journey for a few years now.

In September, I finally gave up eggs after watching these three excellent and highly recommended documentaries.

You too can educate yourself via Netflix ! ✨️

✅️ Eating to Extinction
✅️ Game Changers
✅️ I Could Never Be Vegan

Just like my Retreat Guests, you too might be really surprised at what is revealed.

And just how good plant based meals are for you, make you feel and taste!!

❌️ But dont jump in all at once... ❌️

Make the change slowly, so your tummy is happy! Don't overdo the fibre...😅

- decide on one small step, in a better direction, for everything!

You know, it's no surprise the planet is exhausted, and that by default, we are too!

For me, my energy, hair, weight, skin are definitely better than before!! But becomjng fully vegan is a way of life, a work in progress.

So there's never been a better time to give plant-based meals a try!

With so many wonderful vegan chefs to explore.

☯️ Give your body a chance to try different products.

✳️ Cook from scratch if you can,
I love my has so many features recipes.

✳️ Adapt and adopt what works best for you.

The most important thing is variety and to enjoy your food! It's your Medicine.

Good luck!

Niki Perry of at The Cowshed, reminded our class this week of the merits of this Spanish Proverb ...

'How beautiful it is to do nothing, and then rest afterwards'.
.. To do No Thing, just BE! ☯️

As the great teacher Thich Nhat Hahn also expressed many times, it is vital to allow our brain to empty, to rest, and just BE .

Only then can the mind-body-spirit achieve a place of realignment, consciousness... and receive clarity, insights, wisdom and truth.

Then can we begin again, as nature intended, in balance!

100% present!

🕉 With a non-judgemental mind,

🦋 A re-energised bod in homeostasis,

🥰 An open heart, ready to give and receive!


- I too believe that every day is a new page. A new beginning.

A chance to spread a little magic ✨️and to 🌠 shine brightly!

I have 2 weekends left in September, ro rest, restore, re-set:.

* 13th - 15th September
* 27th - 29th September

Open to anyone ready to let- go - wanting to shine more, turn a page and discover a new chapter.

🌳 To live in the wonder of nature,

🐚 breathe in deeply, the fresh sea air,

🫶 receive a Re-set and download some positive new intentions,

🥑🥭🍒 to nourish the body and soul with delicious food,

💥 find inner strength with the power of Blessed Yoga 🙏

🌊 to find courage and cleanse and refresh in the sea,
