Wanted this year to be the year that you made mindfulness and self care a priority? Like all the best made plans, we are sure it’s gone by the wayside already, but there’s still time to get things back on track and we know just the person to help you do it; Yoga with Lucy or more specifically, energy healing, coaching, hypnotherapy, doula support, meditation, reiki and yoga with Lucy.

This wellness wonder woman has fast become our go to for all things self care. Far from your average ginger shot and yoga class, Lucy holds stunning day and weekend wellness retreats all over the county which really force you to switch off from life and immerse yourself fully in all the wonderful wellness activities and classes she schedules throughout each day. From a morning Vinyasa flow to an astrology journalling sesh to reiki and crystal healing, you are guaranteed to leave one of Lucy’s retreats feeling like a new woman.

Being Norfolk born and raised (we know, huge thumbs up) means Lucy knows the lushest spots all over the county to hold her retreats. From SUP yoga on the River Wensum to a little fire and ice therapy at Fishley Hall in-between Goddess poses, to sound bathing in the North Norfolk woodlands, the locations are as much of a tonic as Lucy’s classes.

These retreats are an inclusive, welcoming space for people of all abilities and ages so dig out your lululemon and get stuck in! If you go on your own, you are bound to leave with new friends that you’ve made while chatting over marshmallow roasting on an open fire or over the nutritious lunch provided. Lucy can even arrange retreats for team building or special events – who here loves the sound of a zen hen do?

A former school teacher with an MA in Advanced Educational Practice, education is at the heart of everything Lucy does from helping you create and stick to longterm wellness habits – yes, you do have time for that morning sun salutation – to actually offering training courses in yoga, energy healing, coaching and hypnotherapy so you can become a certified wellness guru too.

Basically, she’s the gal to go to for all your wellness needs, even the ones you never knew you had *starts polishing crystals*.

Celebrating our 3rd Year of Trainings and in awe of our awesome alumni community thriving in their pursuits…

“It was a such a splendid experience spending two full days immersed in yoga practice and yoga theory with Lucy, a expert at delivering the Yoga Teacher Training Course and tasting her delicious home-made lunches during it. Would highly recommend- I didn’t want it to end! May repeat just for fun!” FAYE @The_Norfolk_Farmhouse

“Lucy has a special way of bringing people together and holding space so I not only deepened my understanding and practice of yoga but also had the opportunity to connect with an inspiring group of people. Lucy’s teachings have provided me with a solid foundation and a new perspective that I am eager to explore further. The experience has been truly transformative for me, both personally and professionally” ZOE

“Thank you to YogawithLucy I certified last year in Hypnotherapy and Hypnobirthing. I have been an educator for 10 years and decided after my first child I found a strength in how we train our minds and bodies. With both my children I practiced Hypnobirthing and love to share my positive birthing stories with informed and supportive practices that can help others. If anybody is interested in Hypnobirthing or bespoke sessions please feel free to reach out and discuss at hypnotherapy with Sarah“ SARAH @Hypnotherapy_with_Sarah

“I had my Advanced Teacher Training with Lucy and it was a very profound experience. Her knowledge and organized plan lessons made me go deeper in my yoga knowledge and with her guidence i felt confident in completing it. The energy she is sharing during this training is very light ,positive and empowering. I really enjoyed the training and im so happy that i chose Lucy for my coach” ZORICA

“I completed my yoga teacher training with Lucy as a 1:1. I was extremely nervous and felt that I wouldn’t be able to do it. Lucy instantly made me feel at ease, she took the time to explain everything. She made me believe in myself and believe I was good enough. I absolutely love my yoga teaching journey I am on and it’s all thanks to this wonderful lady. Nothing was to much trouble for her at all. Forever grateful” LOUISE @LousLittleYogis

“Lucy is an amazing yogi and teacher, taking you on an amazing journey. She inspires confidence whilst giving you the knowledge and skills to teach others, encouraging curiosity as you explore the different approaches found in yoga. I have no reservations about recommending Lucy both as a yoga teacher, teacher trainer or healer with her holistic approach. Can’t wait to learn more! I’m currently offering a free breathwork mastermind. I developed it from our advanced teacher training and use it in my overcoming stress program. I also use our lovely yoga nidra and yin yoga as part of that program too so everything I learnt with you is now helping others” CLAIRE @Clarie_Morti

“Lucinda’s yoga teacher trainings offer a collaborative supportive approach to the insights and also the practicalities of teaching yoga. When I began I never imagined I’d actually have the confidence to run my own classes or retreats but as the practices built within her programs provide a natural development, as a result I felt confident and well equipped to do so” HANNAH @fearless_female_society

“After attending one of Lucy’s teacher retreats, if it safe to say I felt very refreshed, nourished and full of ideas to add to all of my classes. Lucy is a wonderful being and puts so much into all of her offerings and I can’t recommend her enough.“ LISA @yoga_bright

“Absolutely love everything that Lucy encompasses. Such a unique and creative energy. I have completed her Yoga Teacher Training and am already feeling knowledgeable, competent and enthusiastic about all that yoga and its teaching include“ JESS @NurtureandGrowwithJess

“I completed Lucy’s yoga course last year as I wished to further my learning and understanding of yoga for myself as well as my students. I learnt techniques that I have been able to bring into my workshops and courses such as breathwork, relaxation exercises along with yoga practices“ HAYLEY @SerenityTouch

“I experienced both a weekend retreat and bespoke 121 Yoga training with Lucy. Each of those were delightful in their own ways. The retreat accommodation was so beautiful, food was delicious and it was lovely to connect with others but I also enjoyed the personal 121 day too. I could fit it around other commitments and really got to test out my practical skills. Lucy is both a fantastic teacher and a lovely person! Highly Recommend“ SARAH @ SarahLou_Solutions_

Friday 28th-30th October 2022 | Quaker Barns |

We enjoy escaping to the beautiful luxurious Quaker Barns for our retreat weekends of Yoga, Mindfulness and more! Staying in the unique, light, spacious and tranquil Barn and feeling at home in the rural countryside. I guide us through a variety of Yoga styles to help lay the foundations and deepen your Yoga practice...

Starting with fun dynamic Vinyasa Yoga flows that enable you to connect movement with the breath. We create space for us all to have our own experience and explore our awareness. Each student supported on their journey with variations and adaptations for injuries, health conditions and physical limitations. Using the elements from Yoga Therapy and Ayurveda to aid in restoring the body safely and creating deep relaxation and harmony. With Restorative Hatha Yoga and Guided Mindfulness Meditation we will explore the 8 limbs of yoga; the practices and observations, postures, breathing, withdrawal of the senses, focusing, meditation and oneness. Sessions will incorporate Binds where we will exercise opening, releasing and relaxing in postures longer to feel the benefits. Also Bandhas (stomach, chin and root locks) to allow us to practice controlling and directing our energy in the body. During Yin and Yoga Nidra sessions we explore Mudras; playing with hand gestures to help visualise and channel calming energy. Finally practicing mantras: repeating affirmations to focus us and increase our sensitivity and alertness. With optional Creative Workshops such as Journaling, Vision Boarding, Moonology Mandalas, Shamanic Fire Medicine Ceremonies, Tarot, Astrology and Soundbaths. These Creative Workshops intentionally raise our vibrations, enable us to share what we are grateful for in the present, lessons learnt in the past and manifest for the future. We can let go of what no longer serves us, see feelings, thoughts and patterns that have been holding us back in order to change and break old habits and stories. Making space to focus our intention on new dreams and what we want to create and invite in, now and for the year ahead. Together we will hold and share the space, allowing the deep, clearing, cleansing, purifying power of retreating to transform us all!

I offer Complementary Treatments throughout the retreat tailored to your individual requirements. Deep Tissue, Relaxation Massage, Reflexology and Reiki. Personalised 1:1 Yoga Sessions sharing elements of Ayurveda, the Indian health system to create your own yoga practice to take home with you.

Program:

TEA & TAROT 9am: Enjoying herbal teas and choosing a Tarot card to create a personal intention and focus for this time of year. Using Tarot as a fun tool for mindful self enquiry we invite in the mystery and wonder of these different cards, concepts and rich perspectives and apply them to our daily lives.

HATHA/ VINYASA YOGA & MINDFULNESS MEDITATION 9:30: A fun, dynamic Vinyasa flow for all, connecting movement with the breath, creating space for your own experience and explore your awareness. Then restorative Hatha Yoga using elements from Yoga Therapy and Ayurveda to aid in balancing the body safely and creating deep relaxation and harmony.

Improving our relationships, managing stress, anxiety and improving sleep.

CREATIVE WORKSHOP & REFRESHMENTS 10:30: Using NLP Coaching (Neuro Lingustic Programming) and journaling we embody the stories and symbols of the Astrological Wheel! Through the lens of the 12 Zodiac Signs we journey to find the metaphors and messages that resonate with us now. As we journal we embrace the magnetic powerful wisdom of Moonology, the current moon phase and embody this living metaphor to support our visions and dreams! Shoot for the moon, love to the moon and back and stay wild moon child!

YIN & YOGA NIDRA (YOGIC RELAXATION) 11am: As we play with gentle movement exploration, we gradually extend the depth of our yoga poses and length of time spent in them with ease and comfort, we promote our flexibility and stimulate our flow of energy, free from physical distractions. Using the support of blocks, straps and eye pillows to allow our bodies to completely soften, surrender, and come inwards effortlessly. Then using relaxing Hypnotherapy visualisations to practice quieting the overactive conscious mind, slowing down brain waves and unwinding the nervous system. Using guided imagery, body scanning and meditation to aid harmony and feelings of rejuvenation.

REIKI GIFT 12pm: We reflect on our day so far with a cuppa and enjoy a little gift to take away with us. Infused with Reiki ‘universal life energy’ we sow the seeds of our intentions into our gift with caringly placed hands and touch, focusing us for the weeks ahead! Promoting emotional release, increased sensation and awareness and awakena deeper sense of connection to our surroundings, with others, seeing things a new, brighter, richer, more vivid and recognising the autumnal beauty all around.
