The Body Retreat

It's the second time I have now been with the Body Retreat. First time for a week in Dorset and the second time for 12 days in Somerset. I am truly happy with my visits, it includes everything I would wish for and most of all an understanding about food and exercise, and my relationship with it. Juls and Julie are really wonderful and very understanding and supportive throughout. It is definitely the best place to be, if you wish to understand how to look after yourself the best way and to mentally get a breather and a catch up in a busy life. I love the exercises which make you feel good about yourself and all the information sessions. The food is deliciously prepared by Juls and have taught me how to eat well without complications and feeling I am missing anything. I will definitely go again when I need a booster in my life. Here are some photos from our beautiful daily walks in Somerset.

I have just completed my 6th week at The Body Retreat. Jules and Julies creation is honestly the jackpot of retreats which is why I keep returning. They have meticulously and caringly planned out every aspect of your weight loss journey with their whole hearts. The expert, scientifically based workshops are life changing in terms of how you learn to understand how your body and mind works. The food is delicious and nutritious. Julies exercise is also really manageable, fun and effective (coming from a ex exercise hater who she taught to love movement). I had a really fun week with lovely ladies and the best ever retreat dogs who are just the cherry on the cake! I am leaving with a smile on my face but not because of the 5kgs I lost but (as Jules says) what I gained! I couldnt recommend it more book book book!

Juls, Julie the rest of the The Body Retreat crew really know their stuff. They are amazing hosts, and the days are packed with workshops, classes and exercises, all in a stunning location (for lovely country rambles and inspirational sunsets) with great facilities like a hot tub, pool and sauna, and massage treatments if you want to relax further after all the exercises! The meals were divine; really tasty. It was enjoyable meeting the other people on the course, and everyone was very supportive. I learned so much during the week which challenged what I had assumed. They structured it really well so theres safe and steady progress of weight loss over the week, while showing why it works and demonstrating how to continue a healthy lifestyle at home, theres also continued support available afterwards. Id recommend this retreat to anyone; I learned so much, and was very happy with the results!
