If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away. Thoreau

Welcome to A Different Drum: Personal Retreats that Re-connect

A Different Drum provides bespoke 121 retreats, in wild environments, designed for people who find themselves at a major threshold in their lives, who are seeking deep personal reconnection with Self, Soul and Earth. These retreats offer a unique opportunity, in support of people undergoing major life changes. The retreats run from 3 to 7 days depending on need and are tailored to meet the specific requirements of each person called to do this work.

This path has its roots in one of the oldest of human spiritual practices: leaving one’s familiar world to retreat for a time, opening to new insights and gifts through direct contact with Self and the wildness of the world, with the aim of returning to share the gift for the benefit of one’s people and one’s place.

“The two days I spent with Nick in Wales, walking & reflecting, register as one of the truly important experiences of my adult life. The place is as far away from the daily grind as one can get, deeply connected to nature, and vibrant. Nick’s presence is attentive, nurturing, and freeing. Our walks, our conversations and our silences helped me ground myself, and gently opened paths to parts of me that I needed to hear. Two years hence, I remain deeply grateful for this experience and I look forward to returning soon.” B.D CEO Global Re-Insurance Company
