summer's end sleep & skincare guide
We stroll towards Samhain & the darker half of the year. Rather than fading with the light, we radiate, fortify & reclaim our rhythm before winter settles.
Moving forward by retreating home. Resources, rituals & ideas you can actually use between experiences we create in person.
01 | body
we lead with light. and dark.
There are no curtains. Dim street lights extinguish by 9pm in the mountains. The duvet is white linen weighted with pure wool, the walls so thick you can hear silence. I fell asleep watching flashes of a storm in a distant valley - theatrically spectacular.
I didn’t know there was yet another kind of dark until I saw the contrast.
Where ? Facilitating at the Yogafarm in Austria.
Why ? Retreating to share knowledge - Zenthai weaves fluid yoga with heart-centred stretching, Thai massage, mindful acupressure and the precise structural release of osteopathy.
And with cows wandering past my window at dawn, I’m receiving a circadian reset.
Whether I like it or not.
POV
19+ ways to rethink sleep & reclaim your circadian rhythm (slightly left field)
Modern life has quietly extended our biological day - and our gut, muscles, skin and nervous system are all responding - sometimes in unison.
This isn’t another lecture about putting your phone away. We’re looking at light, temperature, cortisol, recovery and the less obvious interventions that may help us work with our biology rather than constantly overriding it.
Around 80% of people with sleep apnoea are thought to remain undiagnosed, rising to around 95% among women. Alongside the more novel ideas, there’s also a simple weekly reset for when sleep has properly unravelled - informed by research and discussion from Andy Galpin, Peter Attia et al
“The amount of sleep required by the average person
is five minutes more.”

which Christmas skincare calendars are actually worth it ?
02 | face
discover healthy skin & build a routine that works
The face reflects the circumstances the body is challenged with. An accumulation of choices can snowball cortisol out of control. Somewhere in the process, we often abandon ourselves. You look in the mirror & are tempted to solve skin outside in. Impulsive purchases quickly become too many wrong products, used at entirely the wrong time.
Here’s help to perform your own intervention, insight into what’s new, our verdict, guides to keep, education to peruse & savings to benefit from.
Discover Healthy Skin sessions are designed to give you a blank canvas - a prescriptive face treatment at therapyinc + upgrades each month. From a complementary skincare routine to take home, or a fascia facelift - and the invitation to rebook at a preferred rate.
If you’re waiting for the next retreat, start with knowing what to keep, what to stop and what is actually worth spending money on.

03 | spirit level
tell me what you want. want you really, really want.
This month’s Hunter's Moon places courage and radiating prosperity firmly on the table.
We love Danielle LaPorte, but not so much to go on a retreat - $20K, Egypt, shared room ! Her Desire, Bless & Release philosophies offer some syrupy support that might work for you, but we do live by the simple golden light practice. Find the Desire Flip worksheet in the JOURNAL to shift you from wanting something outside yourself - to recognising the feeling you’re actually reaching for.
The next adventure explores cosmic alignment (stay with me, you don't have to be a hippy). We're designing an experience around skin, fascia, thermal exchange & scent within a heart centred practice - to shift towards radiating rather than chasing. Think Human Garage, fascia facelift, & meditation beyond the 5 senses.
