Our Story
Welcome to Heartspring Retreats
I’ve been running our retreats now for over 18 years (founded in 2001) and my ethos is very simple: I’m passionate about providing a caring, deeply nurturing, empathic heart-centred space for individuals to find their way in an often challenging day-to-day world. We provide a haven from the busy-ness and stress, to connect deepy with nature and teach really practical skills for finding peace and unconditional love within for personal and global healing.
Also it was especially important to me to keep the focus neutral without any spiritual or religious teachings or background, so that it can be really open to all faiths and none.
This is not a 'business' to make money, much more of a 'Service' to humanity in my own little way.
Our approach is very personal and individual, so we don't have online bookings, its much better to drop me a line, or even better to give me a ring and we can chat through what you are looking for to see if I can help.
With deep care, Maddie Lynfield
ps: I'm a longterm meditator for over 43 years with a background in Counselling, Spiritual Coaching, Meditation Tuition, Healing and am an Independent Trainer for Nonviolent Communication, but don't take my word for it, do see our Reviews Page to hear from our guests.
What We Offer
We offer one Deep Heart Retreats a month, for 5 or 6 nights.
Where you come on your own (or with a friend), have your own room, yummy veggie home-cooked food and have a fully inclusive package of one to one and small group sessions to deeply relax, connect with your heart and get supported with Compassionate Presence with anything that might be in the way.
We also offer one-to-one confidential Healing and Support Sessions either here at our centre in Devon or by Skype or phone
All our retreats are personalised to suit the individual, as we create a programme to suit you, just e-mail or ring to discuss things further.
We are easy to reach by car or public transport by bus or train. Arrive at Ivybridge Station and we will pick you up (and drop you back at the end of the retreat!)
* Please note we do have neighbours and can not always guarantee a silent space, although generally it is very peaceful here.
