A Day at Broughton Sanctuary
Cosmic Woodland Dining at Broughton Sanctuary
It’s just past dawn, and the air in the Yorkshire countryside is still. You step outside your suite at Broughton Sanctuary, the early sun casting golden light over the misty hills. There's a hush to the morning, no urgency, no noise. Just the sound of birdsong and the distant ripple of a stream. And already, you can feel something subtle inside you beginning to settle.
Welcome to Awaken Your Wisdom Within, a five-night immersive retreat guided by psychic medium Heidi Jaffe. This part training, part healing, and entirely transformational.
While Heidi is finalizing the details of this August retreat, here is an example of what day three will include:
7:30 am. A Silent Walk Through the Woods
You begin the day not with words, but with presence. A silent walk through the forested trails that lace Broughton’s 3,000 acres. Towering oaks, soft moss underfoot, a gentle breeze, it’s here your nervous system begins to exhale. With every step, the inner chatter quiets. You’re not here to prove anything. You’re here to remember what’s already within.
9:00 am. Soma Breathwork in the Avalon Sanctuary
Inside Avalon, Broughton’s serene wellness center, you gather with the group for a Soma breathwork session. The room is warm, the lighting soft. As you begin the rhythmic breathing practice, something shifts. Your body, tense from years of holding on, starts to release. Tears may come. Laughter. Quiet insight. This is where the noise ends and intuition begins.
11:00 am. The Clairs Workshop
In the drawing room of the 16th-century Broughton Hall, surrounded by centuries of stillness and stories, Heidi guides you through “The Clairs.” You begin to recognize the unique way your intuition speaks: maybe it’s a gut feeling (clairsentience), maybe it’s flashes of insight (claircognizance), or the soft internal sound of a truth not yet spoken (clairaudience). Here, you’re not asked to believe blindly. You’re encouraged to notice.
1:00 pm. A Delicious Organic Garden Lunch
Lunch is light but nourishing, a rainbow of garden-grown vegetables, warm soup, herbed grains, and herbal tea. You eat slowly, surrounded by others who’ve come to learn what you’ve come to learn: how to trust themselves again. The conversation is thoughtful. No small talk, just real talk. What’s rising. What’s being released.
2:30 pm. Partner Practice & Psychometry
This afternoon, you hold someone else’s small, cherished item, perhaps a ring, a photograph, a key, and feel into its energy. Heidi guides you as you notice textures, impressions, emotions. You speak what you sense, hesitantly at first, then with growing confidence. Your knowing feels tangible. Trusted. Real.
4:00 pm. Sound Bath & Stillness
You lie down beneath the vaulted ceilings of Avalon as the tones of crystal bowls wash over you. It feels like water, fluid, resonant, and cleansing. This is more than relaxation. It's an energetic recalibration. When the session ends, you feel like you’ve been reset from the inside out.
6:00 pm. A Cosmic Woodland Dinner
Tonight’s dinner isn’t in a dining room. It’s deep in the forest. Lanterns line the pathway, and long tables are set beneath the canopy of ancient trees. This is the Cosmic Woodland Dining Experience, a feast for the senses and soul. There’s laughter, warmth, and a sense that you’re part of something sacred.
8:30 pm. A Mediumship Circle with Heidi
Back inside, the group gathers for an evening mediumship circle. Heidi opens the space, gently calling in loved ones. You watch as others receive messages, and then it’s your turn. The room quiets. Heidi shares something small, specific, and undeniably true. It’s not just comforting, it’s confirming. You’re not alone.
10:00 pm. A Sacred Heart Reflection or Forest Sauna
The day winds down in stillness. You may slip into the woodland sauna, sit beside the hydromassage pool, or walk the labyrinth by moonlight. Or perhaps you rest in the Sacred Heart chapel, journaling what surfaced today. Either way, your body is soft, your heart is open, and your mind is finally quiet.
What Stays With You
Tomorrow you’ll train in aura reading. You’ll learn how to recognize fear from truth. You’ll receive a one-on-one spirit guide reading. But what’s already happening can’t be undone: you’re learning to listen again. Not to the world, but to yourself.
That’s what makes Awaken the Wisdom Within at Broughton Sanctuary so different. It’s not just a retreat. It’s a return to your own clarity.
