✨ This retreat was the most successful Vipassana we’ve held here yet!

This was an incredible group that came together to train and develop the wholesome states of mind that are enlightenment factors: mindfulness, energy, investigation of dharma, joy, tranquility, confidence and faith, wisdom, concentration, obsorbtion or collectedness (Samadhi) and equanimity. This are qualities of our mind that, when developed and cultivated lead to awakening. Vipassana is a meditation technique that ripen them.
In this way, vipassanā is like the soil and water—it nurtures the seeds of the enlightenment factors until they bloom naturally.

Our team was extraordinary — some traveled Europe to assist. With more than a decade of experience supporting Vipassana retreats in Thailand, they helped us perfect our third retreat at Hardwick Estate. We know how complex the journey is, and we supported participants not just with meditation guidance, but also with bodywork, therapy for aches and pains, and even our riverside sauna where people could warm their bones in the evening.

The weather was kind, the determination of the group was inspiring, and through the challenges of the seven-day retreat, everyone came out blissful, encouraged, and deeply transformed. Quite a few tasted the uplifting happiness that arrises from practice and clarity. Many have already signed up for next year.

We’re excited to announce two upcoming Vipassana retreats at Hardwick Estate — May and September 2026. Spots fill quickly (last year’s were fully booked by Christmas!), so make sure to secure your space early.

We look forward to sharing the profound journey of calming the mind, activating awareness, and experiencing deep insight into your true nature. 🌿

🙏

✨ The crowning of our summer season — Ayurvedic Yoga Weekend! Luxurious in setting, transformative in content. A place of deep learning to reveal the truths of your nature. A journey towards lifelong wellbeing. Hosted in Hardwick House with meals in our oak-panelled dining room. World-renowned experts share this ancient Vedic wisdom of profound wellness.

🌿 Are you practising the wrong kind of yoga? The style you choose could help you thrive—or slowly throw you off balance. Discover how the Ayurvedic approach matches yoga to your unique nature, so your practice works with you, not against you. A recent study found 62% of people practising vigorous Ashtanga Vinyasa experienced injuries. These styles may suit Kapha types but overstimulate or strain others. Understanding your dosha lets you adapt your practice, making it safer and more beneficial. When your practice, diet, and lifestyle align with who you truly are, yoga becomes a powerful, sustainable path to well-being.

🌺 Join us to explore yogas for the three doshas. Experience how classes, food, herbs, aromas, oils, and mantras shift depending on your constitution. Learn practices that uplift your character and harmonise with the world around.

💫 We are honoured to welcome Drs Milind & Asmita Jani, pioneers of Ayurveda in the UK since 1985. Founders of the first Ayurvedic & Panchakarma clinic in Hove, they have trained, lectured, written, and run .

🧘‍♂️ Dmitry Glazkov, co-founder of Sadhama, guiding yoga, meditation & pranayama rooted in decades of practice. His teachings blend authentic yogic wisdom with mindfulness and Ayurveda.

🥗 Nourishing meals are crafted by Karen Buckland, drawing on her fine dining and Ayurvedic cooking expertise. She’ll also share Elemental Eating on Sunday.

🔥 Evenings close with devotional kirtan by Lewis & Chantelle of .music — boundless energy, harmonies, conscious lyrics, and firelit joy.

22-25th of Aug at Hardwick Estate, Oxon

We’ve been loving our community Monthly Wellbeing Club "Reset & Restore" at Hardwick House just as much as our guests.

It’s a beautiful opportunity to reconnect with old friends and welcome new ones—many joining from my local regular 6:35 am morning Hatha Yoga class.

Each month, we dive deep into a fresh theme—from grounding yoga to meditation or a sound bath—giving space for reflection, connection, and renewal.

Loving the informal chats in the sauna and heading out for a wild swim together. Simple moments, but when combined, these shared experiences create a complete reset.

And then… always a delightful surprise from Karen’s kitchen, crowning the day with wholesome fine dining—a true treat! I must admit, it’s a challenge to keep my yogic equanimity when those dessert plates appear 😋.

Next sessions:
📅 13th September 2025 – Autumn Roots: Warming & Grounding Yoga for Seasonal Balance
📅 18th October 2025 – The Heights Within: Meditation & the Path of Wisdom
📅 8th November 2025 – Inner Light: Sound Healing & Loving Kindness Meditation

Only 15 places each month—book in advance at sadhama.com or DM for the link/details.

See you there
🧡

The highlight of summer — Natural Flow ༄ Yoga Retreat 🌞

We’re honestly blown away by what’s coming together this year. Usually, we keep the lineup under wraps until the schedule drops at the event… but this year’s offering is too good to keep quiet.

🔥 Campfire headliners? The inimitable River Roots — a symbiosis of acoustic folk-roots, uplifting harmonies, violin, and pure good-vibe energy. Perfect match for Natural Flow. We can’t wait to sing and dance with them under the stars.

✨ Opening the weekend: Bethan Lloyd — with otherworldly vocals, sonic depth, and a shamanic presence that’s truly unforgettable. She’ll guide us into the retreat with a sound ceremony on Friday night + a voice activation workshop Saturday morning.

💛 Cheetah Ram are back as our beloved house musicians — infusing the weekend with mantra, jungle rhythms, Celtic tones and spirit-infused frequencies. Accompanying yoga, ceremony, and movement throughout.

🌿 Our dearest friend India Blue returns with Mystical Morning Yoga + live ethereal harp.

🌬️ Lorena Rodrigo (SOMA): Yin Yoga & Sonic Embodiment — sound, breath and stillness to guide you into deep restoration.

🔥 Victoria Sismek lights up Saturday night with full-body movement to warm you up for the Fire Ceremony — with live music from Cheetah Ram to raise the energy and drop us deeper into the moment.

This year is something truly special. Let’s gather, connect with nature and to remember your natural self that is whole, healed and well.

Happy Solstice & International Yoga Day 🌞

This is where it all began…
All our retreats started — and have been quietly guided — by this ancient oak tree 🌳
Every year since we began Sadhama Rewild Retreats, I’ve come back here to retreat myself. Six years now, at the beautiful Hardwick Estate.

Yoga, at its core, is meditation. A practice of quieting the mind so it can become unified.

In fact, in the original Yoga Sutras of Patanjali — the oldest authentic text studied in every teacher training — only four asanas are mentioned. All four are sitting postures. For meditation.

The retreat is the most essential practice for any yogi.
How else will you deepen your meditation?
How else can you develop the continuity of concentration needed to bring the mind into a unified, one-pointed state — collectedness, or samadhi?

This is how the fruits of the practice reveal themselves.
This is how insight arises. How breakthroughs happen.

I hope you find your own place to take your practice deeper.
A place to taste the Dharma through direct experience.

That moment changes everything — when you discover a different source of joy. A pleasure beyond the senses.
A place for your solo retreat, or a group retreat where you can gain real experience and learn techniques to carry forward.

Our doors are always open. And I’d love to share the insights I’ve gathered over years of long, short, group, and individual retreats.

🌿 Wishing you a powerful Summer Solstice — and may your path lead you to the heart of your practice.

Wow! Sweat & Serenity has completely blown our hearts wide open — and brought us even closer to each other!

All the facilitators we invited to share their medicine were dear old friends. A third of the participants were returning, and many have come back time and time again!

This year, we had our biggest crew ever, and every single one of them was someone we know — some returning for the fifth year in a row!

I knew my job was done before the retreat even began. The right ingredients were brought together — the beauty of the land and the wisdom of the ancient oaks, the natural talent and presence of the facilitators, and the deep friendship and love between us… they work the magic. I just need to step out of the way.

Huge thank you to our incredible team:
💛 – for embracing us all with your enthusiasm, your huge heart, your songs, drum, and storytelling.
🌿 – for singing on behalf of nature, with heart-melting lyrics and a voice that moves souls.
🧘‍♀️ – for your playful, creative yoga sessions that brought so much joy, and for all the gorgeous, caring energy you shared.
🔥 Andy from Buzzard Medicine – for guiding two powerful sweat lodges, holding space with deep care, prayer and gratitude.

And to the crew – each of you is a diamond. We’re endlessly grateful you made time to return once again.

✨ We just launched the Sweat & Serenity 2026 retreat! 10 super early bird tickets are now available — but only while they last. We only hold 40 spaces, and this retreat sells out every year. So if you feel the call, you know what to do. Front row seats to the magic await!

Check out the reviews if you need a little nudge.
