What People Say
Having just returned relaxed and uplifted from an evening retreat, I cannot thank Imelda enough and highly recommend all Mindful by Nature events. This last few months I have enjoyed connecting with nature mindfully, foraging for cooking, baking bread on the open fires and learning new nature crafts. Fun and laughter with like-minded people brought together in a safe space under Imelda’s leadership, sharing her knowledge, wisdom and love of nature. I feel so blessed and grateful to have been included in this circle of new friends. Thank you xxx

Thank you for a wonderful evening, I absolutely had the best time and met some amazing people. Doing yoga in the woods was better than I could imagine...As was the silent disco. I went on my own and everyone was so friendly, you don’t need a plus one. I really can't wait to go again. I didn't take loads of photos, as I was so busy having fun!
Sue Burn
What a fantastic summer retreat! Three hours simply vanished with an amazing yoga class, gorgeous food and meeting such fabulous people. The silent disco ( it was a rave!) could have lasted all night! If you do this again, I'm in. Thank you, Imelda, for all the hard work you put into making the evening such a great event xx

What is Lammas?
Lammas is the first harvest festival of the year, a moment when the fields begin to offer their early grains and the land shifts from high summer into the first hints of abundance. Traditionally marked on 1st August, it’s a time to pause, give thanks, and recognise the quiet turning of the seasons.
Rooted in both Christian and pagan traditions, Lammas has long been a celebration of gratitude — from the blessing of the first loaves of bread in Christian communities to the pagan honouring of the grain mother, the sun, and the ripening earth. It’s a festival that invites reflection, nourishment, and gentle preparation for the months ahead.
In modern times, Lammas has become a beautiful opportunity to reconnect with nature, slow down, and acknowledge the small harvests in our own lives — the things we’ve grown, tended, or carried through the year so far. It’s a soft, golden pause in the calendar, perfect for rituals of rest, wellbeing, and renewal
