A Day to Rest, Receive & Reconnect
On the day of the solstice, nature invites us to slow down, soften, and soak in its warmth. This one-day retreat is designed to help you find deep relaxation and reconnect with your own natural rhythm. A time for celebration and new intentions.
Held at Little Dutch Farm—our green oasis and regenerative farm in the heart of the polder, this retreat offers a mini-holiday in your own country. A sustainable way to recharge, without needing to travel far. Just one day in nature can shift your state of being.
Through calming herbal rituals, restorative yoga, nature-based coaching and nourishing food, you’ll be guided to rest your nervous system, reflect on what this season is asking of you, and reconnect with a sense of ease and presence.
Come solo or with a friend—this is your time to rest and receive.
