We had an amazing Open Gardens Day with the Allesley Festival at the beginning of this month where we welcomed 169 visitors to our Breathing Space Gardens.
Here at Breathing Space we are also joined to the quiet garden movement https://quietgarden.org/ there are many gardens throughout UK where you can find outdoor spaces for well being and your inner journey. In our Garden you can walk the labyrinth or spend time in our prayer den – sit and rest a while amongst the tiny orchard bearing fruit. Watch the fish bob in and out as the dragon fly hovers over the waters. Sit still for a while and you may see a goldfinch, blackcap or even a woodpecker visit.
During August we are taking time to “Consider the birds” where we will slow down and consider what Jesus was saying here. We have an interactive Journal where you can also share your ponderings and together let’s discover a deeper meaning.
Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Matthew 6:26
Personal retreats 9am – 4pm (Thursday – Saturday) for individuals to visit for half- or full- day quiet and reflection. Please book in advance here.
Groups are welcome for ‘away days’ or retreats. The break out rooms and garden nooks and crannies are just great for groups of around 15. . . . a refreshing and inspiring context for team building and vision casting.
