The Unwinding (more than a retreat) - EARLY BIRD

To Reserve your Space, go to : https://lynnesutherlandcoaching.aweb.page/unwind-reconnect-retreat

Our vision for The Unwinding is to offer an intentional process that begins before you arrive and continues to hold you as you return home. We believe that what is just as important as the weekend itself is the support before, during, and afterwards. Without integration, even the most meaningful experience can quickly fade. We want to offer something deeper — a space where what unwinds can be gently supported and lived beyond the retreat itself. For those who are so often the ones holding others, this is also a space to be held.

Before the retreat, you will be welcomed into a gentle online space, along with downloadable audio meditations to support your arrival in your own time. After the weekend, we will come together again for an integration call, with space to reflect, settle, and begin carrying the experience forward.

This is more than time away from the demands of everyday life. 

It is a space to listen more deeply to your body and reconnect with your own knowing.

Held in Nature

Our home for the weekend is Lochwood House, Loch Goil, Scotland — a beautiful, spacious setting surrounded by water, woodland, and stillness.

Here, nature is not simply a backdrop, but part of what shapes the experience with us.

Woodland walks and wide open space

Nourishing meals

Wild swimming in the loch

An outdoor sauna, hot tub, and cold plunge (with a two-hour session included)

Quiet corners for rest and reflection

A bespoke ceremonial space for cacao and shared circles

There is something deeply restorative about this land, offering both stillness and space to breathe again.  Within this setting, each Unwinding is shaped by the women who gather, and each one carries its own rhythm.

Across the three days, you are invited into:

A heart-opening cacao ceremony

Gentle somatic and mindbody practices

Deep rest and nervous system support

Guided creative practice and sharing circles

Voice-led sound bath

innerdance — a powerful yet gentle journey into the subconscious,

Spacious time for rest,  integration, nature, and simply being

There comes a moment when pushing, striving, and holding it all together no longer feels like the way.  The Unwinding is an invitation to pause, to be held and to soften what has been braced for too long.  There is no pressure to perform, to share more than feels right, or to do anything a certain way. You are welcome exactly as you are.

The Experience

Over three days, we will guide you through a deeply held and nourishing journey, gently supporting you to:

Release stored tension, stress, and emotional weight 

Reconnect with your body and its quiet intelligence 

Unravel old patterns and protective stories 

Restore your nervous system through rest, nature, and connection 

Open to a deeper sense of trust, intuition, and inner knowing 

Our approach draws on decades of experience in counselling, somatic movement therapy, physiotherapy, and mindbody coaching, creating a space that is both grounded and intuitive.  This is not about fixing you. It is about creating the conditions for you to meet yourself more honestly, gently, and deeply.

Who This Is For

This experience is for women who:

• Hold space for others and feel ready to be held themselves 

• Long to slow down and reconnect with their body 

• Feel the quiet call for something deeper, softer, more true 

• Are ready to release what they’ve been carrying — even if they don’t yet have the words for it 

  
  

Your Guides

You will be held by two experienced, heart-led practitioners, bringing over 60 years of combined experience.
