We're in the digital age, living through "Interesting Times". Anxiety, pessimism, screen-time and pharma are up - connection to self and others, lightness and optimism are on the wane. Will AI be our saviour? Our nemesis?

We'll see. We prefer to enjoy what's here and now. And as long as we can type without resorting wholly to digital assistants (thanks for the funky images, though, Bots) we'll share our resolutely analogue human bastion here in the French countryside with other biological bipeds seeking natural synaptic synergy. Hang out on Howling Hill, chant and sleep fireside in a prehistoric cave, do some bushcraft, walk, swim in rivers; sit around the campfire, join in with live music, Kung Fu, zikr; gather, eat, drink and make merry. 

Be Still.

Contact us for details of the next forest-based retreat.

Alternatively, rewind a century or so and join us for one of our "Lights Out" weekends.  In our near thousand year-old dwelling, together we'll lock up our distracting mobile devices, power down the WiFi and unplug the mains for a properly vintage vibe. Engage with the seasons and learn how to create a vegetable patch, plant potatoes, harvest herbs, make balms, keep bees, press apples or chop firewood.

And if you want to deep dive, dip into our off-limits/off-web library or jump down one of our esoteric rabbit holes. It's a trip, man. Woman. Whatever your flavour, be Still Human.
