About this trip

Reset and restore from where the roots of your intentions, ideas and actions grow. Connect with your own nature and become empowered to step into your relaxed and joyful true self.


We all need time for ourselves to keep up with the increasing intensity and speed of the outside world. Time to focus on maintaining a personal wealth of energy and vibrancy, a refreshed soul and a relaxed, engaged body.


These needs change according to the seasons - cleansing and rejuvenation in the spring, energising vitality in the summer, purification and renewal in the autumn and deep restorative rest in the winter.


Recognising this need, we have created a sanctuary of carefully curated well-being practices that nourish, restore and uplift you throughout the year. In each session we attend to the changes in your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual bodies, informed by the nature and seasons around us. Emerge as a balanced, harmonious and well cared for self - ready to meet the world in all its challenges.


Each month, we explore the subtle shifts in nature and how they affect our body, mind, and spirit. Through guided yoga, seasonal rituals, Ayurvedic self-care, meditation, and nourishing food, you’ll learn how to align your daily life with the wisdom of the current season.


These retreats offer space to pause, reflect, and receive timeless teachings that empower you to stay balanced, vibrant, and rooted throughout the year. Whether you come for one or journey with us through the seasons, each gathering is a chance to deepen your connection to the cycles within and around you.


Tune in. Slow down. Thrive with the seasons

Program

Each event is a journey of heart centred practice and therapeutic treatments. 


We start with an hour long wellbeing session lead by our distinguished rosta of expert teachers. Expect restorative yoga asana, vibrational sound healing or nourishing meditation. Revive on a cellular level with sessions featuring themes such as cleansing pranayama, conscious movement, mindfulness and ayurvedic wisdom of Rutacharya – the art of living in harmony with the seasons.


Flow then into the healing, therapeutic warmth of our Siberian Sauna in the gorgeous outdoor setting of the lime tree avenue. Observe from the sauna's panoramic window as the lime trees bud, leaf, shed and rest, in time with the seasons. With the sauna situated a short distance from the river Thames, in summer there is the opportunity for wild swimming and river dips around your sauna experience.


Fully rested and reset, we then gather for a sumptuous ayurvedic dinner in the oak panelled dining room, by the soft light of glowing candles. A two-course, fine dining feast prepared with seasonal produce as the star centrepiece, locally grown and bursting with vitality. Discover exciting flavours and delicious combinations which will leave you satiated, satisfied, nourished and revitalised.


Find soulful balance, supported by experienced facilitators in a safe and welcoming space, crowned with a celebratory feast. Leave with deep softness in your heart to open up your relationships with others. Move in unison with the flow of the seasons in the company of like-minded people.

Retreat Location

We will gather together as a community on the land at Hardwick Estate, and its heart Hardwick House. This is a unique opportunity to practice in the graceful stillness of this gorgeous tudor manor house, which is normally closed to the public and kept only for the private use of the Rose family.


A space to connect with nature, community & your natural self


Hardwick estate is only 40 minutes by train from London (Paddington), and just 20 minutes by car from Junction 12 on the M4.  Easily accessible from the main transport hubs at Reading, yet set in the rolling countryside of the Chilterns AONB, Hardwick is ideally located for a weekend getaway of peace and tranquillity.


If you have a spare seat in your car and are happy to share a ride, or if you need a lift to the gathering, here is the link to our retreat community Whats app group: Reset & Restore

Surround yourself with 500-year-old trees,  stunning scenery, magical sunset and riverside views in the comfort of the stunningly beautiful manor  & your community.

Food and Drink

We will be eating fresh, organic, locally grown, plant based meals lovingly prepared according to the Ayurvedic principle of food as medicine. Dishes are created by our ayurvedic culinary expert and chef as a two course fine dining experience. This approach blends flavourful ingredients with health benefits, creating meals that satisfy your senses while enhancing your vitality with culinary richness and balance. 


Ayurveda views food as both nourishment and a primary tool for self healing, essential for balancing the mind, body, and spirit. We use a palette of sattvic ingredients to ensure that your food supports your yoga, mediation and cleansing practices, leaving you feeling nourished, balanced and strong. Moving beyond calories and macronutrients we embrace food as a tool for creating harmony, balance, and optimal health.


As much as possible of our gorgeous fruit and veg will come from Tolhurst Organic farm, based on site, who use stock free farming to produce the lowest possible carbon footprint, cruelty free food. Their work is truly inspiring and aligned with our ethos of re-connecting and re-aligning with mother nature to live in more harmony.

The retreat was wonderful! Beautiful location, swimming in the river, sauna, delicious food, nice agenda of practices and classes you could choose to participate or not, loved the relaxed vibe. Met lovely people, musicians singing by the fire every evening. I thought it was curated with a lot of care, thoughtfulness and love. Highly recommend. Clare
By Clare D for Natural Flow ༄ Yoga Retreat 2025 on Jul 29, 2025
What a wonderful afternoon! Calming yoga by the river, lead by Dimitry followed by a relaxing sauna (except for the cold bucket of water beforehand!) and the chance to dip in the river. All this rounded off with a delicious vegetarian meal crafted by Karen. We we blessed with super weather, but Dimitry and Karen made sure that every part of the experience was attended to with care and consideration for their guests. I would definitely recommend this short retreat to anyone looking for a few hours of calm in the grounds of the wonderful Hardwick House on the banks of the Thames.

I took part in the 7-day silent retreat with Sadhama, and it was a truly life changing experience. Vipassana is a Pali word that stands for 'clear-seeing' or 'insight'. Having previously heard about the 7 to 10-day meditation challenge, I never seriously considered that this would be something I'd ever venture into. Life has different plans. When my partner accidentally stumbled upon one right at our doorstep, with an element of yoga and sauna (!) incorporated into it, I began to feel the calling, and my excuses started to gently evaporate. After all, for the first time in over three years, I could go offline for a week without the sky falling, so what was stopping me? So, for the entirety of last week, I spent on a field, in silence, with 50 others who had made this strange commitment to their own evolution. The days began at 4.30 in the morning with the gong, and continued until 9 pm in the evening paced with 45-minute segments of both sitting and walking meditation. The instructions were plain, and the outcome clear: understand the nature of the mind and, as a result, the reality you live in, or, the reality you create for yourself as a result of your relationship to your mind. There was no dinner, and the first two days rained pretty much constantly. At the point where nearly all my essential items were starting to be pretty soaked, the sun made an appearance. "See, your vision is clearing, and as a result, the weather!" - we were told. Funnily, this was true. The first few days were hard. Once we passed the halfway mark, things started to feel lighter. The meditations finally began to feel like "they should." I wouldn't have been able to do this without the amazing lead of the incredible dharma teacher Dmitry, whose stoic wisdom truly drilled into our superficially suffering minds why this knowledge is so essential. --- Who do you want to run your life? For the first three days, I found my thoughts to be utterly insufferable; superficial, gimmicky, frantic, and judgmental. After three days, I began to notice the impact of the meditations where my thoughts began to rise at a slower pace and became easier to tame. By the completion of the retreat, I found myself to be in a foreign space of peaceful contentment. After finally being able to speak for the first time in seven days, I found a deep kinship with my fellow meditators. We had already shared so much, albeit without words. The retreat organizers incorporated a sharing session to the last night, and I cannot describe the feeling of seeing your mute fellow beings come into light and share their reasons for stepping onto the path of such deep self-inquiry and discipline. We laughed, and we cried hearing each other's shares. Traditional Vipassana is arranged in an exactly same way as Buddhist monks would practice in a monastery. The practice is simple, elegant, and challenging. In the West, we build our lives around our wishes and desires, our comforts and pleasantries. Unfortunately, as a result, we become evermore trapped in cycles of dependency when we no longer reign our own beings, but rather are pulled by our minds along like helpless children. Most people don't ever even consider doing anything to overcome the madness of their own minds, but as the Buddhist know so well, what results is an endless cycle of suffering. Vipassana invites us to first witness our internal havoc, and secondly, take charge by quieting the mind and repeatedly bringing ones' awareness to the present moment. Most importantly, there are no shortcuts, no tricks one can pull to make the process any easier. Belief in your own capacity and your constant commitment to the practice are the main tools on your path to lighter reality. After returning home, I've felt an amazing sense of calm stability, gratitude, and focus. I feel that my time has been extended, my mind is at rest, and I've experienced a long needed reset, which put me right back on my tracks. I feel called to learn more and to find a way to give back, now that I've had the opportunity to receive this knowledge that so many people go without for all their lives. We all can alleviate suffering, in our own lives, and in the lives of others, and I'd warmly recommend starting with the mess of your own mind. God knows we need more sane people in this insane world. Sadhamayoga, you've helped me more than I can express 🙏🙏🙏 The care that went into the food, space holding, and the treatments was palpable, and I left with my heart full of gratitude that people like you exist. May all beings be safe, free, and happy.

This is the real deal. If you are looking for a true expression of the essence of Yoga you don't need to look further. I have had the warmest of genuine welcome, been nurtured, eaten amazing food which is prepared and served with love. The teachings and course leadership are authentic and based in deep understanding of yoga. The setting is perfect, an oasis of nature unspoilt on the bank of the splendid Thames. The sweat lodge is authentic and transformative. I can't recommend this any more highly.

I have left deeply transformed at the end of the retreat - at peace, empowered and joyful. I shall share with you a poem I penned at the end on Sunday after most people had set off. What brought me to this point? Was it just being at the right place at the right time? Was it just the practices, the setting, the energy, the company, the food? It was all of the above, and beyond! First of all, all the organisers and teachers at the Sadhama ReWild retreat I have just attended at the Hardwick Estate in South Oxforshire live and breathe what they teach. It came across strongly and informed the ethos, the energy and the vibration of the whole experience for everybody. People gelled and I made many new connections with some like-minded and like-hearted people which I am relishing. There was an all-embracing welcoming of everybody with no judgement. We practised yoga, danced around the fire, swam in the Thames, did forest bathing and much much more, all within a very safe and sustaining space magically magnified by the idyllic setting. I have sadly lost an old sangha due to various reasons, but have now got a new one - a new yoga family who has taken me in to walk alongside and with me and I with them. Second of all, the practices sometimes reminded of what I already know but have forgotten, at others I learnt new things. But, I found that perhaps we always experience things anew, as we are moment by moment changing. Practices were delivered and shared with joy. The structure of the day was honoured. It all was flowing without too much ado! Thirdly, the food, freshly prepared, vegan, organic, was very nourishing and absolutely delicious. I was sustained not just by the food itself, but by the ambience, the loving, compassionate, all-embracing energy and people. Now for the poem inspired by this experience, as promised earlier is called: JOY What does joy look like? What does joy feel like? What does joy smell like? What does joy sound like? Where does joy live? What dance does it dance? What song does it sing? Joy is seen on children's faces Joy turns up in some unexpected places. Joy sometimes surprises, takes you unawares Joy whispers sweet nothings, when it seems nobody cares. Joy's fairy-like nature can be felt in a tree Joy speaks to the heart when there's nothing to see Joy shines throughout our beings divine Joy reassures it is now and forever fine. Joy constant like a steady, strong mountain springs forth like a wild water fountain refreshingly fresh, always anew washing away all unwanted residue. Joy wakes up the dormant, heavy heart and the whole body, each and every part of our whole being sacred, infinite our spirits and souls dance happily within it. Joy is multiplied when shared Joy comes in when its summons are heard Joy sings and twirls sweetly around when it hears that most welcome sound of our inner being emptied of waste - in it comes, with its sweet-smelling taste hurriedly enters with an enthusiastic haste filling our heart, mind, body and soul with love so that our being is below as it is is above! Joy is when a sangha is sadly lost, but a new one is found Joy is when compassion, generosity and freedom abound Joy's gifts abundant as it is overflowing Joy brings us back to our own inner knowing. Written by (me) Mary Mallia "JOY" on Sunday 12th September 2021 after the Sadhama ReWild Retreat at The Hardwick Estate, South Oxfordshire and inspired by my experience there and at that time.
