Embrace the Winter Weekend Retreat ( 17 Nov, 2023 )

About 

Come and join Allan Brownlie and Lisa Krause  (For more info) for a winter weekend experience in one of the most magical places in Scotland.

Learn how to embrace the Scottish winter instead of fighting it,  and experience the power of the cold by tapping into your body’s innate ability to adapt to the elements.

During this weekend retreat you will be guided through breathwork sessions, cold water immersions and you will learn about your circadian rhythm and how to adapt your body to the darker months of the year, just as our ancestors would have done.
