The Home & Health Retreat

Do you wish to lose weight to feel more confident & comfortable in your own skin as well as gain energy?

Do you want to learn how to cook tasty, healthy & nutritious meals?

Do you forget the important of self care & prioritising yourself until you’re run down & exhausted?

Do you wish your home was a haven that you could be proud of?

Do you struggle to juggle everyday life & want to learn how to have a balance between busy family, work & social life?

Well, you’re not alone & this retreat has been designed especially for you by interiors expert Charlotte from The Home That Made Me along with wellness & life coach Helen from The Balance Coach.

During 2018, I have lost 6 stone & gone from a size 18-20 to a comfortable size 12 using sheer determination & will power. Fed up of fad diets & constant yo-yoing I decided to go down the healthy route & instead opted to change my lifestyle to combine wholesome fresh foods with gentle exercise for a new way of living. Aside weight loss, I’m also known for my love of beautiful neutral interiors & very much aware of just how much interior design can impact your mental health. It is so incredibly important to have that safe place to retreat to. I’m here to prove that if I can do it, then anyone can.

Two years ago, Helen was diagnosed with a lifestyle disease & also decided to go on a food & health journey to lose 2 stone whilst finding her calling & enthusiasm for life again. Founder of The Balance Coach, Helen is the expert at teaching busy women how to prioritise themselves. As a successful entrepreneur with a multi award winning wedding business she know how all-consuming growing a business, a family and trying to live a busy, fulfilling life can be. After years of hustle, late nights, exhaustion and overwhelm plus ill health she realised that there was a better way. Trained with the Health Coach Institute she is a master at creating sustainable lifestyle change. Her moto is ‘more happiness, less hustle’.

We’ve joined forces to bring you The Home & Health Retreat. A two-night event where you can learn how to make your home your haven with expert interior workshops, how to have better balance through food, stress management, movement and daily life hacks plus recharge your batteries with great company, food and experts on hand!

The event is being hosted at The Gate House in Dean’s Court (Wimborne, Dorset). Dean’s Court is an elegant historic house which has been in the William’s family for over 500 years. Today the estate open’s their doors for weddings & other events as well as the stunning on site accommodation.

We are taking over The Gate House for this intimate event. We know you’ll fall in love with it as much as we did with it’s Georgian architecture; high ceilings, reading nooks, log burners & delicate neutral shades. It’s seven bedrooms, sitting room, kitchen, dining room & entertainment room (where we’ll be hosting a movie evening!) will be your home for the two relaxing & mindful days to purely focus on yourself & your own wellbeing.
