Wild Mama's Retreat at Haylands Farm is a three-hour morning for new mothers in pregnancy or with a newborn before baby is on the move. Lizzie Boynton leads a nurturing programme: grounding and mindfulness, guided meditation, journaling, nature craft, forest bathing and a campfire-cooked brunch with hot drinks.
It is designed for the stage when caring for a tiny baby and finding yourself again can feel impossible in the same breath. You meet other mothers in a similar chapter, step off the everyday treadmill for one morning, and leave with something gentler in your body than when you arrived. Wear shoes you do not mind getting muddy, bring a covered cup and plate, and use the overflow car park rather than the Phoenix Centre.
Sessions run in the rain but cancel in high winds or thunderstorms. Tickets are £25 for one adult with one baby or one pregnant adult through Forever Wild at Heart. More community events on the Isle of Wight list circles and retreats for parents through the year.
