Join Me for a Food as Medicine Summer Retreat at Knepp
There’s something magical about stepping away from the demands of everyday life and giving yourself permission to simply be nourished.
This summer, I’m delighted to be hosting a very special Food as Medicine Retreat Day at the beautiful Knepp Rewilding Estate – a day dedicated to supporting women through menopause and beyond with evidence-based nutrition, restorative experiences and the healing power of nature.
As women, we often become experts at looking after everyone else. Yet menopause can be a powerful reminder that our own health and wellbeing deserve attention too. This season of life brings change, but it also offers an opportunity to reconnect with ourselves and rethink how we nourish our bodies for the years ahead.
Food has always been at the heart of my work. Not as a source of guilt, restriction or complicated rules, but as one of our most powerful forms of preventative medicine. The foods we choose every day can influence our energy, mood, bone health, metabolism, inflammation and long-term vitality. My hope is that this retreat leaves you feeling informed, inspired and empowered with practical strategies you can easily weave into everyday life.
And what better place to do this than Knepp?
Surrounded by one of Britain’s most celebrated rewilding landscapes, we’ll spend the day immersed in nature – a reminder that we, too, are part of the natural world and thrive when we slow down enough to listen to what our bodies need.
During our time together, you’ll enjoy inspiring talks and open discussion on how to use food to support health through menopause and post-menopause. There will be plenty of opportunities to ask questions, connect with like-minded women and share experiences in a warm and supportive environment.
We’ll gather around a beautiful seasonal lunch created using produce from Knepp’s own market garden before taking a gentle walk through the rewilded landscape to the lakeside saunas.
To close our day of nourishment, we’ll spend an hour in the wood-fired sauna, complete with calming lavender face masks and invigorating ginger shots, before those who wish can take an energising dip in the wild swimming pond beneath the open sky.
Every guest will also receive a thoughtfully curated gift bag worth over £150, allowing you to continue the experience of nourishment long after the retreat has ended.
More than anything, I want this day to feel like a gift to yourself.
A chance to pause, learn, reconnect and most importantly, to be looked after.
Leave feeling calmer, stronger and inspired to embrace this next chapter with confidence and vitality.
Tickets are £150 and include a seasonal lunch, all talks and discussions, the wood-fired sauna and wild swimming experience, plus a beautifully curated gift bag worth over £150 – meaning you’ll take home as much nourishment as you receive on the day itself. Book your spot here.
Places are intentionally limited to keep the experience intimate and allow plenty of time for conversation and questions. If this speaks to you, I’d love you to join us for what promises to be a truly special summer day.
