THE SOOTHE WEEKEND

The Quaives, Wickhambreaux, Kent
10th–12th October 2025
The Quaives is a lovely retreat space in Kent, 51 miles from St Pancras

Really does calm the nervous system. A lifeline in turbulent times."
– Tatler

Join somatic movement practitioner Nahid de Belgeonne, Founder of The Human Method™,
for SOOTHE; a weekend of profound learning and personal development that will self-regulate nervous systems and have guests departing in a calm and collected state after just 48 hours.

The Human Method is a powerful practice of brain-body re-education, breathwork, anatomy in movement, somatic yoga flow, and deep rest.

You will enjoy carefully designed practices to help you let go of unhelpful patterns in the body and mind and lay down new possibilities for movement and for your life.

The Human Method has helped many people reduce their stress and anxiety, sleep better, function at their optimum, and stay emotionally resilient in an ever-changing environment.

You'll enjoy 11 hours of expert teaching including: 

•  Energy shifting practises in the morning to lengthen, strengthen and mobilise
•  De-stressing practises in the evening to unravel, unwind and reorganise
•  Deep sleep practises before bedtime
 
The Quaives is set in beautiful countryside surroundings, just beyond the green in the chocolate-box village of Wickhambreaux, Kent, on an estate once owned by rock royalty.
The accommodation ranges from rooms in the house, cottages on the estate and rooms 3 minutes away at the Tor Spa.

“I’ve designed this retreat as a direct response to the rising numbers of people I am seeing in my clinic dealing with burnout, heightened anxiety, relentless stress, and sleep issues,” explains de Belgeonne. “They need an antidote to our modern hypervigilant world and my programme is about soothing the put-upon nervous system and building resilience for when times are tough. Guests will leave this weekend with the power and resources to live with more joy in the long term.”

You can come by yourself or book a shared room with a friend or partner.
