About this Retreat
As your lead, Matt is a public speaking and communications coach, hailing from Brighton, UK.
Working with clients ranging from The World Health Organisation and the EBRD through to O2 and Virgin, he specialises in helping people say what they need to say when it matters most.
Throughout the retreat he'll be running the core coaching circles, helping you connect with your voice, your body and you message - then he'll show you how to put it into action back out in the real world and equip you with a toolkit to do so.
As a Mindfulness Coach, Adam is here to coach Mental Fitness habits: simple awareness skills, mindsets, attitudes to allow positive momentum in our daily experience.
Allowing enjoyment and productivity.
Rewiring our brain with repetition in a similar way to training the body in a gym.
Using simple exercises to: energise aspects of our life that we can control, navigate our emotions, and allow effective action.
Balancing the activity in the brain and nervous system.
Allowing us to recover from challenges, make effective decisions, and boost our overall performance.
As your yoga teacher for this retreat Zoe's intention is to encourage your nervous system to rest. You'll do this by making the brain/body/breath connection. With gentle breath and soothing movement we can bring the mind to settle, allowing the deeper digestion to take place without deliberate thought. Leaving you feeling more grounded and calm.
As your massage therapist for this retreat Zoe will work with you to facilitate a deeper connection to your body. You will breathe into blockages within the body, creating flow and embodied relief. This will allow your body to release physical stress, tension, and old patterns. Bringing new possibilities to light.
Beth brings over 20 years of experience in corporate communications and is the founder of Lovely Messy Humans, a platform dedicated to applying neuroscience insights to everyday life. As a certified Resilience Coach and a graduate of Matt's 6-point speaker programme, Beth has transformed her own journey with public speaking from fear to confidence.
Today, she empowers others to embrace their purpose, combining a deep understanding of human biology with practical tools for emotional regulation, healing from trauma and authentic communication.
