Retreat By The Mill
Personalised Wellness Retreats
A calm and supportive space in rural Hertfordshire, to step away from daily pressures, focus on your health and explore a more nourishing way of living.
Why Retreat?
Many of us know what we should be doing for our health.
The challenge is finding the time, space and support to put it into practice.
At home, life continues around us. Work, family responsibilities, endless to-do lists and daily pressures can make it difficult to focus on ourselves.
A retreat offers something different.
It creates space to step away from everyday demands and spend time focusing entirely on your wellbeing.
Here, you can slow down, breathe deeply, reconnect with nature and gain clarity about the changes that may best support your health moving forward.
Combined with one-to-one support, a retreat provides an opportunity not only to rest, but to reflect, learn and create a realistic plan that can continue long after you return home.
Why Tanya?
Thirty years ago, after being diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, I began rebuilding my health through nutrition, movement, nervous system support and lifestyle changes.
The swimming pool, peaceful surroundings and slower pace of life here became part of that journey.
Today, I offer others the opportunity to step away from the noise of everyday life and take a deeper, more personalised look at their wellbeing.
My own healing journey led me to the career I have today.
Through Nutrition, Naturopathy and a particular interest in medicinal mushrooms, I have spent many years exploring ways to support health and wellbeing.
Combined with my personal experience of living with chronic illness, these skills and qualifications help me understand not only the physical challenges people face, but also the emotional and mental impact that long-term health concerns can have on everyday life.
Your Retreat Experience
Every retreat is tailored to your individual health goals and needs.
Before Your Stay
A conversation to understand your health concerns, goals and priorities. Book a call to discuss your stay.
During Your Retreat
Personalised guidance, restorative space and time to focus entirely on your wellbeing with Tanya’s help and support.
After Your Retreat
Leave feeling relaxed, restored and with a clearer understanding of your health concerns, along with practical recommendations to help you optimise your wellbeing at home.
Alongside your one-to-one sessions, you will have plenty of time to enjoy the peaceful surroundings, heated swimming pool, sauna, hot tub and countryside walks.
This balance of professional support and restorative space allows you to step away from everyday pressures and focus fully on your health and wellbeing.
Restored. Recharged. Better informed.
My goal is for every guest to leave with a deeper understanding of their health and a practical plan to support their wellbeing moving forward.
