“All I can say is wow! The teachers were amazing, venue was stunning, and the food … out of this world. Highly highly recommend!”

This is a truly life-transforming retreat.

Five days to slow down, rest and reconnect with the very best version of you ...

Going deep into Ascension and the present moment, journalling, reading, swimming, walking, just doing nothing at all – 

It is such a gift to give yourself.

Take advantage of the beautiful and peaceful location, the camaraderie, the powerful yet so simple and clear step-by-step teaching, incredible food …

Everything is done for you, you just show up and soak it all in.

There's everything you need to go deep into the present moment and come out in fine fettle, all so you can live the life you want to.

This retreat is for those who have already learnt to Ascend. Experience however – last week or last decade – is no barrier.

 
 

“My heart is so full of love peace presence magic and joy, and it's all an inside job, including the great food.”

Places are limited.

With Priya, Arjuna, Sumati and Dharma Raj

Priya, Arjuna, Sumati and Dharma Raj have over 75 years joint experience in the art of Ascension and bring a great depth of insight, clarity & wisdom.

All four are either currently or have helped guide the Ascension mastery courses in Spain, and are passionate about helping Ascenders discover their own authentic Self and live a rich, truly Alive life, full of purpose and wonder.

Priya is the author of the recent compilation “Dear Teacher” as well as the “The Dot Book” and Arjuna is the author of “200% – An Instruction Manual for Living Fully” and “Chasing More and Finding Enough”.

 

What to expect:

Your time with us will be super relaxing and nurturing, yet profoundly growthful.

As well as plenty of opportunity to close your eyes and Ascend, there will be twice daily meetings to guide and inspire.

In these, or one on one with us, you can ask your questions, clear up any doubts, share about your discoveries about life and moving beyond the mind (should you feel like it) or simply sit back and melt into your experience of true presence.

You can fill your time Ascending, enjoying the easy camaraderie of the others, reading, walking, maybe simply grabbing a coffee and watching the world go by.

Everything is done for you so you can truly rest and go within.

The venue:

On the edge of Swaledale, our venue is a lovely place to drop out and tune in for a few days.

Having been the home of Ascension in the UK for over 25 years, you’ll feel the peace of the house and grounds as you leave the Georgian streets of Richmond behind you.

The food by our top chef Dharma Raj is spectacular, the location amazing. As well as being able to head along the river or explore the hills, the garden is beautiful. It really is wonderful for resting in.

We recommend packing walking or running gear, perhaps even a swimsuit for an enlivening dip, journals to write in, and/or just a comfy blanket to really take advantage of your time to close your eyes, switch off and go within.

 

“The days were magical. They were filled with teachings, ascending, chatting and laughing, walking, swimming, yoga… plus I HAVE to mention the food! My goodness. We were so spoiled.”


Details:

Wednesday 24th September (official start is with a meal at 6pm and meeting following) – Sunday 28th September 2025 (after breakfast).

In Richmond, North Yorkshire

We have two room options:

a). Shared room at the venue, or b). Your own individual ensuite accommodation nearby.

Sharing is a wonderful chance to make some deep connections and lasting friendships. It makes a whole new dimension to your retreat. However, we get not everyone wants to share, so the option to stay nearby is a good one.

If you’re interested in this off-site option:

The retreat price includes everything (all meals, everything!) except for the price of your off-site room.

As an idea, local rates start at £70-£80/night plus (depending on spec) so you can look to pay £280-£320 plus extra (£605-£645 plus in all). Often, if you communicate directly, your host will give you a discount for a 4 night stay and the fact you won’t need breakfast (because our breakfast will be the best you’ve ever had. True!).

Richmond is very small and easy to get around. You’ll be close by and still feel like part of the retreat, but have your own space.

If you’d like to talk this through with me, or for help with booking, contact me here and I’ll get back to you asap.

Cost:

Per person, all inclusive, with an additional Ascension Attitude (for those who aren’t full up with techniques):

Shared rooms – £495.

Day rate – organise your own individual ensuite accommodation nearby, all teaching, meals, tea/coffee and snacks and AA – £325.

Your booking includes a non-refundable deposit of £225 to secure your place.

More Praise:

New friends made, silence explored, experiences shared, great food eaten, log fire burning, cosy and comfortable. As soon as I entered, time appeared to stop and the magic began.

The ascending room was filled with stillness peace and presence like never before, my heart was so full of love and beauty of the divine in each and everyone of us, it brought a tear to my eye.

I loved my time — days filled with relaxation and delicious food. I came away knowing in my heart that the practice makes my life simpler.
