Tan & Vicky’s resilient life workshop was blissful. Full of authentic creativity, sustainable ideas in the kitchen & garden led with a peaceful bearing on spirit. We continue to enjoy many bottles of home foraged wild wine accompanied by the punchiest of sauerkrauts! The friendly company as we shared ways of working together felt like an ancient treasure, secretly healing. Thank you 🌎💚✨Laura

Time well spent is definitely a time worth living and the Resilient Life Course, will not disappoint you. Set in the beautiful East Sussex countryside. The welcome on arrival was warm and welcoming, I immediately felt relaxed. Our first day was Yoga with Tanja, in the Thereshing barn at Charlston house. Tanja's teaching is gentle and effective, she has a voice like butter, and she had so many gems of wisdom thrown in along the way. I wanted to take her home with me, as my personal teacher. Lunch was served, homemade, home grown or locally produced, to an exceptional standard. Day 2, we arrived at a glorious farm house, with a kitchen that will make you feel like your stepping back in time, we all gather around a huge wooden table, which really adds to the ambience of the making of Sourdough Bread and Sauerkraut. Vicky's teaching is clear, forget measurements, this is how Grandmother's did it, by eye, feeling and nurturing (The Baby) Vicky"s has the ability to make things fun, and give you the confidence, so as when you leave, you will feel inspired and equipped to be proficient in making bread and Sauerkraut. There was lots of time for tea, coffee, biscuits and laughter, not forgetting a fabulous lunch. Day 3, Wild Wine making, which will surprise and delight you. Informative and faultless in all it delivered. We left upright. This was followed on with a fabulous time talking and being amongst the chickens. A must for anyone thinking of keeping chickens. All the people that I have met that teach on the Resilient Life workshops, all have one thing in common, a love and passion for what they do, and a desire to share there skills to make a difference in our lives and for future wellbeing. For me it was the ultimate gift on many levels. Thank you 😊 I highly recommend.

Wonderful yoga escape from everyday life. Highly recommend for a nurturing day amongst other women.

We came foraging with The Resilient Life. My wife, our baby and I had the most wonderful time. Really fun and educational. James is a fantastic guide and looked after us so well. His knowledge of the forest and the varieties of mushrooms was incredible. He taught what to look for and what to avoid - always focussing in being safe. We took a full trug and James was great with tips for cooking and preserving. Really looking forward to the season starting again and booking another outing.

Fantastic day out with James. We found an abundance of delicious and wonderful mushrooms. Some very unusual. We learned a lot and have become even more enthusiastic about foraging
