    Overall Experience

    If you’re considering staying at the Simply Healing Retreat, I hope my review might help you to make up your mind. The last year has been incredibly challenging for me. My mum passed away in May 2022 and my sister died on 30th March 2023. As you can imagine I felt truly devastated by these combined losses in such a short period of time. I didn’t feel able to share my overwhelming feelings of grief and sadness with anyone as I didn’t wish to burden my friends and relatives. I had visited Simply Healing before and over the years have come to see it as a home from home and have always received a warm and loving welcome from Kate, Viv and Caz. It is a safe and comforting place to retreat to when the ‘world is too much with us’ and we feel overwhelmed, derailed and just need a healing place which is restorative, supportive and kind. I decided to head to Simply Healing because my heart, body and spirit badly needed mending and I knew that Viv, Kate, Caz and all the team, even dear Poppy, could help. When I arrived at Simply Healing I was not in a good place mentally. I couldn’t stop thinking about my sister and all the events leading up to her death. She had been my older sister whom I had always looked up to and suddenly she was gone and the awful sense of loss sank all my spirits. The first few days at Simply Healing were the toughest and I couldn’t sleep at nights. However, with the help of wonderful and caring therapists like Jo, Emily, Katie, Shirley and Janine, I slowly began to grow stronger and I felt more steady and calm within myself. At Simply Healing I always stay in the Pink Room and during the days of my retreat, I went for walks, read and wrote. My sleep also improved as the days passed, and by the close of my retreat I was sleeping like a baby. I had a Healing session with Viv which greatly lifted my spirits and gave me a renewed sense of hope and peace. Kate also spent time talking with me and helped me move forward on my journey. The other important component was the presence of other lovely guests, Lisa and Bev – who were very understanding and I have kept in touch with them. After twelve days, my retreat came to an end but by then I felt stronger, less broken, and more able to face the world and my sister’s funeral. Her funeral was held on 25th March 2023 and although it was one of the most difficult days of my life, I know that my time at Simply Healing helped to give me the strength I needed to get through that most dreadful of days. I know many guests stay at Simply Healing to lose weight and I had lost 10 pounds by the end of my stay. I’ve continued to eat healthily and I feel so much better in myself spiritually, physically and emotionally. I shall always be grateful to the great team at Simply Healing for their love, compassion and commitment to helping others to grow in health, resilience and well-being. Simply Healing is and always will be my ‘go to place.’ I hope my review has helped you if you are thinking of spending some time there – Simply Healing is a special and protective place – you are accepted and looked after just as you are – the message is always about love, kindness and the bigger picture. I wish you well with your own journey and thank you for reading this – Jacquelyn xx

Practical Information

How to Prepare For Your Detox

The amount of preparation you will need to do before you arrive depends on which detox you are planning on undertaking.

The more preparation you put in, the better the result will be.

If you are doing one of our longer packages, you will do most of your detoxing whilst you are with us. However, with the shorter Detox Experience it is essential that you put in as much preparation as possible to help you achieve the best results and also to avoid any detox symptoms after your stay.

The most important tip we can give any client planning on undertaking a detox, is to cut out caffeine slowly. You may not even realise how much caffeine you drink as it can even be present in ‘fruit’ teas and fizzy drinks as well as tea and coffee. Cutting out caffeine too quickly can cause bad headaches which make the detox process much harder.

The last few days before your stay try as much as possible to cut down on dairy, sugar and red meat, as well as alcohol and junk food.

There is a strict no smoking policy whilst doing a detox, this is very important and you must try to adhere to it. If you feel that it may be a problem, you may want to invest in some nicotine patches or gum. Many people find that this kind of detox programme actually helps them to give up.

Also please leave your vitamins, minerals and other supplements behind; when your body is toxic, it will even treat supplements that are supposed to be doing it good as a toxin, putting more burden on your liver.

What to bring with you/Making the most of your stay

Books, magazines and any other things that you feel will help you to relax, and occupy your time when you are not having treatments. There are CD players, TVs with Freeview and DVD players in the rooms, so feel free to bring CDs and DVDs with you. There are also iDocks in all bedrooms.

Please remember that as our name suggests this is a retreat - a chance to get away from the stresses and strains of everyday life, a chance to snuggle up with a blanket in front of the fire reading a good book, or just snooze and enjoy the peace and quiet. No telephones ringing, Blackberrys or iPhones pinging emails and messages, no need to turn the TV news on or read a newspaper, unless you want to. With this in mind we ask that all guests are considerate to others, by not using mobile phones anywhere other than in your own bedroom, and not using them at all after 10.30 pm. When watching TV or listening to music in your bedrooms please keep it low as the person in the next room maybe having a snooze. We do ask that TVs and music are turned off or headphones used after 10.30 pm.

There is wifi available for guests to use, however given our location we have very slow download speeds and therefore ask guests to download any music, TV programmes or films before they arrive. It is perfectly good for checking email and web browsing, but we ask guests not to download whilst here.

We encourage every guest to make the most of the wonderful surrounding countryside, and there are organised walks as part of our programmes so please bring with you suitable footwear and clothing. There’s nothing better than a walk in the countryside and the exercise will only benefit and assist the process.

When undertaking a detox such as this you can often feel hot one minute and cold the next, so we recommend that you bring loose comfortable clothes that you can layer and relax in. We have a plentiful supply of hot water bottles, and extra blankets, so please ask if you are feeling the cold.

You may like to bring a large towel - there are towels supplied in the bedrooms but these are normal sized bath towels; if you prefer a large bath sheet please bring one or two with you.

Remember your indoor shoes such as slippers, and thick woolly socks - outdoor shoes are not allowed in the house.
