Heartfelt Reiki blends shamanic drumming, plant spirit energy, life coaching and yoga with personalised Reiki sessions led by Harvest Rose. Breadmaking is a practical, hands-on workshop suitable for all skill levels that teaches essential bread-baking techniques and encourages creativity and camaraderie. Fabulous Felt Making guides participants through crafting a unique felt picture inspired by nature, facilitated by Harvest Rose with an emphasis on wellbeing and creative expression.
