Imagine having an entire afternoon dedicated solely to you, your pregnancy and your baby...
You want to feel calmer, more connected and prepared for birth.
But between juggling work, appointments, and perhaps even other small humans, it can feel hard to find the time.
So imagine a soothing pregnancy retreat which focuses on rest and relaxation, supporting you to nurture your wellbeing and gently prepare for birth.
All in a warm, welcoming space where you can share experiences, feel supported, and make genuine connections.
My beautiful pregnancy retreats have been designed with all of this in mind.
Suitable from 12+ weeks of pregnancy, you can expect 3 blissful hours of gentle pregnancy yoga, hypnobirthing, deep relaxation and lots more.
Spaces to our pregnancy retreats are deliberately kept small and intimate, leaving you feeling relaxed, comfortable, and truly supported.
I can't wait to warmly welcome you into this nurturing space at Gosforth Garden Village Association.
Join me and other mums to be for a truly gorgeous pregnancy retreat experience.
Nurture your wellbeing, connect with your baby
Taking time out for yourself during pregnancy is so important for both yours and your baby's wellbeing.
When you give yourself permission to relax in this way, you’re creating the foundations for a calmer pregnancy, a more confident birth, and the best start to motherhood.
Blending pregnancy yoga, mindfulness and powerful Hypnobirthing, our pregnancy retreats have been designed with all of this in mind.
Relaxation has so many incredible benefits for both you and your growing baby.
Including improving your overall wellbeing and helping you to feel more connected to your baby, relaxation can also help you to:
-
Ease stress and quiet anxious thoughts, so you can move through pregnancy feeling more grounded and in control
-
Lower your heart rate and blood pressure, helping your body stay in a calmer, more peaceful state
-
Sleep better and feel more rested, so you have the energy you need for pregnancy, birth and beyond

Deepen your connection with your baby, giving you precious, mindful moments to bond

Hello my name is Jane Johnston. I trained as a nurse and a midwife, working in the NHS for over 40 years.
I developed an interest for Yoga in my early 20s which has continued throughout my life. Yoga has benefitted me personally, maintaining my functional fitness and mental health.
Since I have retired, I had the opportunity to develop my interest further through training to be a Yoga teacher at Newcastle Yoga School. I love teaching and sharing my passion for Yoga.
