Hello and welcome to Healing Retreats with Sandra Hillawi.

12 years ago I was introduced to the idea of healing retreats myself. I was run down, over worked, exhausted and had lost my zest for life. I had read about detox retreats and took the plunge and what happened was amazing.

It changed my life.

Not only in my health and well being as I regained my energy, vitality, health, lost my excess weight, but it changed my career direction too 

My old IT career is now 10 years behind me as I am now an experienced practitioner, trainer and facilitator in natural healing and detoxification, energy healing for the emotions and spirit and energy psychology and an author too.

I have now designed the perfect healing retreats to help you address, improve and overcome your own personal health challenges, to release your stress, to heal your emotions and spirit, help you to lose that excess weight, to create the energy passion and vision for your success in your own next step in life as you rediscover your magnificent self.

Healing Retreats for Health Challenges

Our approach to physical health and symptoms is a combination of optimum nutrition and deep healing and transformation of the emotions and spirit. We know that 85% of health problems come down to stress and unresolved emotional issues and amazing healings can be experienced when we release stress from the body.

Healing Retreats for Weight Loss

For weight loss we go back to nature. Combining healthy salads, fruits and vegetables with fresh juices with a focus on healing and changing the emotional behaviours around over eating, to be able to make lasting changes in our eating behaviours.

Exercise for the Mind Body and Spirit

There are no gymnasiums at our retreats. We prefer yoga and meditation. Yoga for physical strength and cardiovascular exercise as well as mental strength and focus and we encourage walking and swimming depending on our venues. We practice different styles of meditation for relaxation and to quiet the busy mind. Jo Hogarty is our most experienced and fantastic yoga teacher who will also have you in stitches with her warm Cumbrian sense of humour.

Self Help Workshops and Classes

In our daily workshops, we offer simple natural techniques for releasing stress, healing even the oldest injuries, and for creating the inner changes that you need in different areas of your life : love, relationships, work, family, health, your goals. Our favourite tools for change are EFT and EmoTrance. Simple, powerful and effective.

One to One healing Therapies

For deeper healing and change we offer a range of one to one healing therapy sessions : EFT and EmoTrance, Massage and Reflexology, Reiki, Polarity Therapy, Thai Yoga Massage and Colonic irrigation at our detox retreats. Some therapies are included in the programme and some are optional extras.

Healing Retreat Centres : UK Egypt and France

We are blessed to have three beautiful venues for our retreats.

In the UK we are at Sedgwick Park House, West Sussex. A private Stately home restored with loving attention to detail and the most magnificent gardens with fountains, streams, an outdoor pool, cultivated gardens and wild meadow land and forest.

Our European centre is Chateau Bellenau in Normandy France. Combining rustic charm, a fantasy garden of caves and grottos for quite reflection and mediation, and a short drive to the beaches.

Far from the commercial resorts, with its own private beach and unspoilt coral reef, nestled between the mountains of the Sinai Desert and the Mountains of Saudi Arabia this is a place of deep peace and stunning natural beauty complete with warm attentive Egyptian hospitality.
