Dr Hamilton, who has a PHD in organic chemistry, is the author of 12 bestselling books including, just launched, ‘The Joy of Actually Giving a F*ck’.
He will be joined by wellbeing specialists June Moore of Soul School and Janice Clyne of Nourished by Nature and the day will be hosted by wellbeing coach, Stephen Elliot.
The day retreat has been organised to celebrate the arrival of the Autumn Equinox which is an important date in the holistic calendar. As well as the speakers, the event will feature shamanic drumming by White Wolf who will lead a meditation session welcoming in the Autumn Equinox.
The Autumn Equinox is when the sun is exactly above the Equator and day and night are of equal length. As well as marking the beginning of the new season, the Equinox can have a significant impact on people’s wellbeing both physically and psychologically.
Organiser, Sue Taylor, said: “We’re excited to have such an impressive lineup of speakers who are all specialists in their own field. Dr Hamilton is extremely knowledgeable and a highly regarded wellbeing expert. We’re really looking forward to his inspirational insight into the effect compassion can have on the mind and body.
“We all lead such busy lives that sometimes we need to look at how we can restore some balance and this day retreat will do just that. It’s a great opportunity to be inspired and learn, meet new people and come away feeling calmer and more fulfilled.”
The event will take place from 11am until 5pm with the opportunity to enjoy a healthy balanced Viviana Miramar inspired chakra balancing lunch. Tickets are priced at £22.00 and from £22.25 for the optional lunch.
