The marketing team from ZEISS Vision Care’s Birmingham office, recently spent a day at Wootton Park Wellness. We created a bespoke Reconnect Retreat for the marketing team. The programme was designed to help colleagues pause, unwind, and strengthen their connection as a team.
The day began with a warm welcome and a delicious wellness breakfast in the Farmhouse dining room. Homemade granola, fresh fruit and sourdough toast set a nourishing tone for the day ahead. Guests then enjoyed some time with the animals before moving to the Yurt for a gentle restorative yoga session, easing body and mind into a state of calm.
Late morning was spent outdoors, with an introduction to forest bathing and a guided mindful walk through the woodland. This experience offered the group, a chance to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with nature. After a relaxed lunch in the spacious Farmhouse dining room, they gathered for a Picture of Health workshop. Led by Wellbeing expert Jon Burgess, they explored practical tools for balance and resilience in the workplace.
As the afternoon sun shone, the team came together around the firepit for reflection and conversation. With homemade cakes, drinks, and a fire meditation to symbolically let go of what no longer served them, the moment was both grounding and uplifting. The day concluded with a soothing gong bath, allowing everyone to set a new intention, before heading home refreshed and reconnected.
A day that nourished body, mind, and spirit and reminded the team of the power of pausing together. Please get in touch, if you would like to find out more about a team away day, a bepoke programme crafted to suit you.
