MoreSally Evans and I held a 3-day weekend retreat from 12-15 March 2026 in the heart of the vines of Saint-Emilion to explore how midlife is the perfect time to embrace change, challenges and opportunities to flourish now and beyond.
It offered space and time to reflect, be mindful and get creative while having fun. Thanks to Sally’s brilliant Book ‘Make the Midlife Move’ participants left with an actionable plan for sustainable change to realise the fulfilled and healthy life balance they were looking for.
If you have a group of friends or colleagues interested, we can happily organise a made to measure edition of this inspiring weekend for you. Let us know.
Can you seriously combine wine and yoga? Aren’t wine drinking and healthy living incompatible? I don’t think so. One of the things I share is how to really enjoy the wine you drink. Learning to pay attention to what you are drinking, being in the moment, sounds like a type of yoga to me, making drinking a healthy and pleasurable ritual rather than mindless overindulgence.
Organised for small groups, we visit different vineyards every day for a yoga class in their vines and cellars, followed by visits with the wine makers, tastings and healthy food and wine matching lunches and dinners. Days can include meditative walks through the vines, yoga nidra, massages and even visits to a wine spa.
Contact me to organize or join a tailor made wine and wellness programme to learn about how you can enjoy wine and stay (or get) healthy.

MoreChâteau La Tour de Besan is an amazing contrast of old and new; an ultra-modern cellar carrying the name of an ancient monument; rooted in history whilst looking towards the future. A perfect synonym for Bordeaux.
