The Manse Retreat — One Day Experience

Not everyone can step away for three days.
But one day can still change a lot.

​

This is a private, one-day experience at The Manse, designed to help you understand emotional trauma and begin changing how it feels.

​

You’ll arrive in the morning, step into a calm, private space, and spend the day working directly with us.

No groups. No pressure to talk through everything. Just focused time, guided by us, in a setting designed to help you move forward.

​

A Day at The Manse

Your day is structured, but relaxed. We guide everything from start to finish so you can simply arrive and be present.

​

10:00am — Arrival & Understanding

You’ll arrive at The Manse and begin by settling into the space. We’ll walk you through how emotional experiences are processed, simply and clearly, so you understand what’s happening and why things can feel stuck. There’s no need to revisit the past in detail. This is about understanding, not reliving.

​

Late Morning — One-to-One Session

You’ll then work directly with Carl in a private one-to-one session. This is focused time to begin changing how specific experiences feel, without needing to talk through everything that happened.

​

Lunch at The Manse

Lunch is prepared by Kim, a qualified nutritional therapist. Simple, nourishing food, designed to support you through the day. No rush. No formality. Just time to pause.

​

Early Afternoon — Reset & Space

If the weather allows, we may take a gentle walk through the village. This isn’t just a break, it helps create space for things to settle naturally.

​

Afternoon — Second One-to-One Session

You’ll return for a second session with Carl, building on the work from the morning. By this point, many people begin to notice a shift in how things feel.

​

Closing — Guided Hypnosis

We bring the day together with a guided hypnosis session. This helps reinforce the changes made and leaves you in a calm, settled state before you leave.

​

Who This Is For

This may be right for you if:

• Something from the past still affects how you feel

• You’ve tried to move on, but it hasn’t fully shifted

• You don’t want to keep talking about it

• You want to experience a different approach before committing to more

​

What This Day Is (And Isn’t)

This is not a full retreat.

It’s a focused, private day designed to:

• Help you understand emotional trauma

• Allow you to experience the work directly

• Create an initial shift in how things feel

​

For many people, this becomes the starting point.

​

Your Environment

The Manse is our home, a former vicarage dating back to the 1800s. It’s quiet. Private. Removed from everyday life.

Many people say the same thing when they arrive:
“It just feels calm here.”

And that’s often where things begin to change.

​

After Your Day

You won’t just leave and be left to figure things out.

You’ll receive:

• A hypnosis recording to support what you’ve started

• Guidance on how to continue moving forward

​

Start With a Conversation

We begin with a simple call.

This gives you the chance to ask questions, understand the day, and decide if it feels right for you.
