The Vedic Weekend: off-grid

9th - 11th October 2026

A weekend, fully unplugged, immersed in nature, connection and Vedic wisdom.


This weekend was born from my fascination with the power of nature and the effect it has on our nervous systems and our well being.

“I’ve tried meditation many times over the years, but what’s made it stick this time is Maddy’s approach. Understanding what actually happens in the brain during meditation – the stages, the drifting, the returning – gave me a framework that no app ever had. I’ve also done a retreat with her, which left me feeling weeks worth of calm and centred in just a few days. My partner and I are now planning to do two a year. I can’t thank Maddy enough.

The change has been life-altering. Where I used to react from a frantic, overloaded place, I now have a split second of clarity before I respond. My nervous system feels like it’s come down several levels from the constant high-alert state it was in. The difference it’s made to my relationships, my family life, and how I move through the world is hard to put into words.”

See what past retreaters have to say…..

“I was going through a massive transition when I went to the rounding retreat with Maddy. Rounding as a practice helped a lot and the knowledge talks helped with my perspective. With Maddy’s guidance I was able to create some spaciousness in my transition”

“A few things I’ve noticed since beginning meditation. The biggest one is my body told me to lay off coffee for a while as it was feeling too “aggressive”. I listened and ended up not drinking any for 7 weeks 🤯🤯🤯 I didn’t stop drinking tea, just the coffee. That was probably about a month ago now and astonishingly to me, I don’t even want it anymore!!! What the heck?! I’ve had the odd one, but the daily desire for it has gone.

Secondly, I was going to a chiropractor for my neck (car accident 10 years ago) at least once a month. During meditations I’ve felt guided to move my head/neck around in certain ways, very gently and slowly. It seems to have helped manage the stiffness in between appointments. However I just checked and I haven’t been to the chiro in 4 months! The biggest gap I’ve had. Coincidence 🤷🏼‍♀️

Anyway, thought I’d share in case anyone else has noticed some different benefits along with feeling calmer, more balanced and more present!
