Deep Sleep Wellness Retreat

If hormonal changes have started to affect your sleep, whether that’s broken nights, early morning waking, or feeling anxious and unrefreshed, this five-night immersive retreat offers the opportunity to reset your sleep. 

Combining expert guidance and evidence-based techniques with a calm, restorative environment, it’s designed to help you better understand your sleep and gently support it back into balance.

Designed for those experiencing ongoing sleep difficulties, this immersive experience goes beyond generic sleep advice. It explores the underlying factors that influence sleep, including stress, lifestyle, and hormonal changes, to create meaningful and lasting improvement.

With guest speaker, Insomnia Specialist Kathryn Pinkham, this retreat focuses on helping you understand why you may feel stuck in a cycle of poor sleep and what is actually driving it. Rather than focusing on surface-level advice around caffeine or relaxation alone, you’ll learn how to reset your body clock, reduce night-time wakefulness and improve overall sleep quality.

Kathryn will review your sleep assessment and guide you through two personalised workshops, alongside Q&A sessions, providing tailored advice based on your individual sleep patterns and challenges.

Across the Retreat, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of:

  • Why sleep problems develop and persist
  • Common patterns such as difficulty falling asleep or waking at 3am
  • The role of stress, hormones and an overactive mind
  • Practical, evidence-based techniques to improve sleep
  • A personalised sleep plan for you to follow.

Your days will also include mindful movement, restorative spa treatments and nature-based activities designed to calm the nervous system and support better sleep.

With a small group of like-minded guests (maximum 13), this retreat offers a supportive and focused environment to begin breaking unhelpful sleep patterns and rebuilding confidence in your sleep.

Kathryn will be present throughout the Retreat, offering guidance and expertise, making this a rare opportunity to work closely with a leading sleep specialist in a dedicated setting.

Sleep isn’t one-size-fits-all, and many people struggle despite doing all the “right” things. This retreat is designed to help you move beyond generic advice and develop a personalised, practical approach to improving your sleep.

Why attend a Sleep Retreat rather than fixing the problem at home?

Attending a Sleep Retreat allows you to step away from daily stress, screens, and routines, giving your body and mind the space to reset. Unlike trying to fix sleep at home, the Retreat provides personalised guidance from a sleep specialist, structured workshops, and immersive experiences, all designed to help you break unhelpful sleep patterns and build lasting, restorative habits in a supportive environment.

What makes this Sleep Retreat different from general sleep advice?

Unlike generic sleep tips you might find online or in books, this Sleep Wellness Retreat for Women offers personalised guidance tailored to your individual sleep patterns and challenges. Over five nights at the peaceful and private Shanti-Som Wellbeing Retreat, you’ll take part in expert-led workshops and Q&A sessions hosted by Kathryn, alongside receiving a personalised plan designed to support meaningful and lasting improvements in your sleep.

The Retreat goes beyond theory, combining interactive workshops, mindful movement, spa treatments, and nature walks to reset your nervous system and reinforce healthy sleep behaviours. You’ll explore the underlying causes of poor sleep, such as stress, hormonal changes, and unhelpful sleep beliefs, and gain practical, personalised tools to take control of your sleep in a way that suits you.

By immersing yourself in this structured, supportive environment with like-minded women, you’ll experience a depth of learning and transformation that cannot be achieved through standard sleep advice at home. This is truly a hands-on, tailored approach to improving your sleep.

Who should attend this Sleep Retreat?

  • Women experiencing changes in their sleep, possibly linked to hormonal shifts, including perimenopause and menopause

  • Early morning waking, leaving you feeling tired before the day has begun 
  • A busy or active mind that feels difficult to switch off at night

  • Anyone ready to understand their sleep more deeply and restore a more natural, restorative rhythm 

Who should NOT attend this Sleep Retreat?

This retreat is designed for individuals experiencing common sleep difficulties such as insomnia, night waking or poor sleep quality. It may not be suitable for those with more complex sleep or mental health conditions.

How can this Retreat help women experiencing menopause related sleep changes?

Kathryn is known as the UK’s only sleep expert specialising in menopause related insomnia, addressing hormonal impacts on sleep during perimenopause and beyond. She frequently contributes to national media, delivers keynote talks on mental health and resilience, and advocates for making clinically proven sleep support widely accessible.

Menopause can bring hormonal fluctuations that often disrupt sleep, causing night sweats, insomnia, or restless nights. This Retreat is designed specifically for women navigating these changes. Kathryn will provide personalised guidance to help you understand how menopause affects your sleep, identify patterns that may be keeping you awake, and create practical strategies tailored to your unique needs. Through workshops, movement, spa treatments, and nature based activities, you’ll learn how to restore balance, calm your nervous system, and achieve more restful, restorative sleep during this transitional stage.

Do I need to have severe sleep problems to attend?

Not at all. The Retreat is suitable for anyone who wants to improve the quality of their sleep, feel more rested, and understand how to support their body’s natural sleep rhythms.

Before confirming your Sleep Retreat reservation, you will receive a Pre-Retreat Questionnaire to ensure the experience is suitable for your individual needs.
