Under the Stars
A 5-night retreat
down the road at The Forge.
A life health-check.
Recognise any of this?
Are you finding there aren’t enough hours in the day?
Are you stressed by conflicting responsibilities?
Are you exhausted but scared of dropping all the spinning plates?
Do you feel like you have to hold it all together for everyone else?
Do you need to be seen and heard, to be part of a community?
Do you know deep down it's time to stop, to let go, to come home?
You’re invited to join us for Bodlondeb’s Annual Under The Stars Retreat,
a 5-night retreat to properly land and breathe.
Often people arrive not because something has gone wrong necessarily, but because they sense something important is being missed.
A bit of space.
Time to think clearly again.
Time to remember what matters.
Under The Stars offers a chance to step out of the noise for a few days - to rest, reflect, and reconnect with yourself in the company of other thoughtful people who are asking similar questions.
It’s not about escaping life.
It’s about creating enough space to return to it with more clarity, energy and intention.
Over the course of the week, we’ll share wild swims, sauna sessions, good food, meaningful conversations and quiet moments in nature. Some sessions invite deeper reflection and life check-ins, while others are simply about adventure, laughter and being present together.
See you under the stars?
Steph x
I am taking A sense of space, permission to slow down, a huge sense of ease and simplicity, greater awareness of my own power and my ability to hold things lightly while being clear with my boundaries...memories that will last a life time. A huge, huge, huge amount of love.
Oof...wild swimming, the sauna, being barefoot in the wet grass, dancing and making noise all together on the last day, singing about apple cheeked riders in the Slavic mountains, guided meditation, being held so gently and safely by Steph while also being encouraged to meet my edges and step out of my comfort zone

Join Us
This isn’t just another retreat.
It’s a celebration of everything you’ve become, shared, and dreamt of. Together, we’ll create new memories, deepen our connections, and explore who we are right now and where we want to go next.
It's a life health check.
Why do it?
For five nights, we step away from the busy-ness of everyday life and move into something simpler. We sleep under canvas, spend our days outdoors, and create space to reflect on what’s working in life and what might be ready to change.
This retreat is open to anyone who feels the pull to slow down and reconnect with themselves and others. You don’t need to have worked with Steph before - just a willingness to arrive open and be part of the experience.
01
Online Meet Up
We'll come together as a group on Zoom ahead of the arrival date to reduce the fear and start as we mean to go on: connected.
03
Space to go deeper:
Space can feel like a luxury to many of us - Steph will bring together her NLP, mBIT and Heartmath tools and techniques to help you come home and realign.
05
Relaxation & Rest:
Shared silence, day time naps cocooned in a hammock, stargazing, and simply being - yes please.
02
Movement & Adventure:
Movement, beautiful views and walks, wild swimming and shitting in a compost toilet - what more could you ask for?!
04
Fire & Feasts:
Gather around the fire under the stars and indulge in delicious rustic communal meals.
06
Dry space
We tend to hide behind booze and drugs under the guise of connection, but actually most of the time, that stuff just gets in the way.
07
Connection & Reflection:
Meaningful conversations, deep reflections and enquiries, and shared processing about your future.
08
Wood fired sauna
Indulge in the woodfired sauna, release the cold bucket on your head and a dip in their swimming pond to land deeply into your body.
Added EXTRA: A unique opportunity to participate in a Kambo Ceremony
There may be an opportunity to take part in a Kambo ceremony with a trusted friend, David - a traditional cleansing practice that can support deep release and reset in the body. This is entirely optional and not for everyone. If you’re curious, you’re welcome to book a call to talk it through - I also wrote a blog about it that's worth reading.
The Forge: a favourite place of mine and I cannot wait to share it with you.
