Awakening the Creative Spirit: A Weekend Retreat with Lila Tristram
Where: Smithy Art Forgery, Wiltshire, UK
When: 3rd – 5th May 2025
Cost: £300 (includes all meals & drinks)
Creativity isn’t something we force—it’s something we surrender to. This retreat is about unlocking the flow state, quieting the inner critic, and rediscovering the instinctive, effortless nature of creative expression.
Whether you’re a musician, writer, painter, or simply seeking deeper connection with your artistic self, this weekend is an opportunity to step away from distractions, explore new tools for unblocking, and immerse yourself in an inspiring and supportive space.
What to Expect
Friday Evening: Arrive, settle in, enjoy a nourishing dinner, and connect with like-minded creatives.
Saturday: A Journey into Creative Flow
Morning Yoga: Grounding the body and mind, preparing the way for flow.
Creative Workshop: A deep dive into what holds us back—exploring subconscious blocks using Internal Family Systems (IFS), guided journaling, and expressive art.
Creative Sharing Circle: A space to bring and share something you’re working on—a song, a poem, a painting, a story—offering and receiving insight with openness and curiosity.
Group Meditation: A moment of stillness to drop deeper into presence and inspiration.
Evening Performance: The retreat centre opens its doors for an intimate acoustic performance by me, open to both retreat guests and the public.
Sunday Morning: A gentle countryside walk to integrate the weekend’s experiences before we part ways, refreshed, realigned, and reconnected with our creative flow.
This retreat isn’t about learning creativity—it’s about remembering it. Trusting your instincts. Letting creativity move through you. Allowing inspiration to unfold, naturally.
Spaces are limited—book now to reserve your place.
