Wim Hof Method, Yoga, Reiki and Sound Healing - Yorkshire | Meribel | Courchevel

My husband very kindly bought me a Fundamentals day at The Acorn, North Yorkshire as a birthday present seeing I needed a wellness reset and also some help controlling anxiety issues due to family commitments.The whole day was brilliantly hosted at The Acorn retreat and supported by Katherine’s teas, organic food and delicious apple cider vinegar. I have now purchased my third bottle and love the blood cider infusion with tonic on a hot day.Natalie and Jim brought to life the Wim Hof ethos and techniques of which I was not familiar. These have proved really useful only a few days later after partaking in the Fundamentals day when I used the breathing techniques to stop a panic attack.I haven’t had another ice bath since then but I can now confidently turn the shower down to cold at home and can currently stride into the sea without shivering!The sound healing again was new to me but amplified the new learned breathing techniques.Thank you to Natalie, Jim and Katherine for a beautiful day.

I have always been terrified of cold, as in, I avoid the cold as much as possible having grown up in tropical weather. I decided to face my fear and embrace the cold by attending a Wim Hof weekend with Jim and Natalie. I can now say after only 4 days, the cold not only does not scare me anymore but I have learned to embrace it for its super power. That is all thanks to Jim being super attentive and supportive in guiding us into the cold and Nathalie’s incredible energy motivating you to even pull a few dance moves while in the cold bath/ river.What an incredible duo that can make you feel like you can do anything. All that accompanied by incredible food, powerful chats and an abundance of laughs. Last but certainly not least, the breathwork…I mean not only did I step into ice baths, which I never tought was possible for me but I also finally discovered what utter stillness in the form of meditation feels like.From someone whose mind is always on, finding that off button through breathwork was so rewarding. Another challenge until this weekend that I had wanted to tackle and master.One thing is certain you walk away from a weekend with them feeling so resilient and bloody proud of yourself and that’s worth everything isn’t?

I did the wim hof fundamentals! It’s been life changing. A perfect tool to help with my illness, lifestyle and coping strategies for my life. Jim and Nat are so easy to learn from, I suggest everyone should try it. You won’t regret it!

Truly special week in Ibiza. This was my second trip with Natalie and James and again they exceeded all my expectations. Their energy, enthusiasm and care create a healing space unlike anything I've ever experienced before. I'll definitely be seeing them again for another retreat!

This week end has been so transformative, full of healing sessions and beautiful moment in nature, I wasn't expected to feel as light as I felt after the week end.Nathalie and James are wonderful healers they are doing this work with their heart and you will feel it. I felt safe, seen and understood which help me to go deeper with the practice.I will be forever grateful for this 4 magical days, and to Nathalie and James for what they offer.Just after finishing the retreat, I was thinking of booking another one :-) I'm looking foward to another adventure with them.Thank you sooo much.

We spent a Wim Hof weekend with James and Nathalie, I just wish I was better equipped to describe what a special weekend it was, I can only say thank you for everything the experience gave me. Jim and Nathalie, curated such special experiences, they are great guides and coaches and helped me unlock levels I didn't know I had. No man ever steps in the same river twice" now I understand

Wow wow wow! Did a Wim Hof Fundamentals course with James & Natalie yesterday and it was incredible. I was very anxious, and they made me feel so supported, safe and calm. Learning about the science behind it all was enlightening and mind blowing - everyone on the planet needs to do this course. I'm really looking forward to this becoming a part of my everyday life and seeing the benefits. Thank you guys!

Incredible Retreat!The Wim Hof Weekend in the Magical French Alps was an extraordinary experience that provided me with valuable tools for safely incorporating various breathing and cold exposure exercises into my daily routine, in accordance with the Wim Hof Method. The retreat allowed me to explore the depths of this method and its numerous benefits, including increased energy levels and overall well-being. The Yin Yoga sessions were an excellent complement to the breathing and cold exposure exercises.The team at the retreat was exceptional, catering to my specific dietary requirements with incredible food at Chalet Savoie Faire. The planned activities, including a forest walk and mountain snowshoe, added to the already fantastic experience.Thank you James & Nat for the unforgettable retreat!

Deuxièmement retraite avec Natalie et James, ce couple incroyable . J’avais tellement aimé ce premier stage dans les Alpes il y a quelques années, que je m’etais promis de revenir . 2023 : l’année de nos 50 ans pour mon mari et moi et ce fut une évidence : c’est le plus beau cadeau d’anniversaire que je pouvais nous offrir . Un cadeau pour le corps , l’âme et l’esprit . James et Natalie pendant 4 jours nous plongent dans une expérience inoubliable . Leur expertise Wim Hof de l’immersion dans les bains froids froids associés au yin yoga , les balades en montagne dans un cadre somptueux et une nourriture digne d’un restaurant gastronomique font de cette retraite un moment magique, hors du temps . Nous sommes repartis plein d’énergie , même rajeunis et avec une confiance en l’avenir hors du commun. Le groupe était aussi incroyable et bienveillant . Nous continuons à échanger entre nous , Natalie est toujours disponible pour répondre à nos questions et poursuivre cette aventure dans notre quotidien . Je ne peux que vous recommander cette expérience . Il faut le vivre absolument
