“What an incredible place, I haven’t felt so relaxed in a long time”
“I didn’t think it was possible to move on from what happened to me, I can’t thank you enough, this was a life changing experience”
“5 stars isn’t enough, I can only describe my stay here as life changing.
I’m no expert, but based on my own experience with Angela, I can only presume that she can improve your life with pretty much any issues you or the people that matter to you are facing, from problematic teenagers to those who have lived a long enough life to think that they don’t need anything. I would imagine that whether you’re addicted to work, obsessive with your projects, suffering trauma, or born with a condition, there surely cannot be a better scenario than to visit this incredible lady with her scientific, no-nonsense and logical approach to analysing a situation, as she repairs the blockages, equipping the participant with mechanisms to prevent them from being held back by the issues moving forward. All this in the most surreal and idyllic location - you’ll come back changed and completely refreshed, and unquestionably in a much better place. I am going to try my hardest to return every year - not because I will need to, but just for the sheer pleasure of being there.
Andy is a delight to interact with, he helps to make the place what it is. I look forward to the next time I can sit down for another drink with him. Happy days.
I cannot imagine anyone could regret the long journey to this remote outpost of the world - it was worth every scenic, stunning, mind-blowing and breathtaking mile - bring a good camera, you will not believe the scenery.”
““Angela and the wonderful Oldshoremore Retreats are a massive asset to our unique corner of the Highlands (where such facilities are gold dust). I had the privilege to be part of a nurturing weekend retreat this summer and approaching winter I am still feeling the benefits. Unexpectedly I made new acquaintances that I would sooner call new friends, which was a lovely bonus. The self contained accommodation is perfect for a cosy wee getaway at the end of a day for reflection and true relaxation without distraction.
The greatest merit to the retreat is Angela’s secure and calming energy coupled with a vast wealth of experience in the fields of yoga, meditation and counselling. You really are in safe hands! ”
“I’m sad to leave you both behind, but you’ve changed my life more than you can ever imagine.
Thank you, and I look forward to seeing you in the not too distant. ”
“I’ve benefitted from learning to control my negative / worrying, thoughts, and am able to address fears “head on” making life easier and me happier.
Yes, I feel more confident, less likely to question myself and am able to do things now, which previously, my way of thinking, would restrict.
I feel happier and my family tell me that I am happier and more positive.
The sessions have made a noticeable difference for me.
”
“I have a lot of hours in my week but this hour is my favourite one every time...”
“Really helped to shift past traumas. I’d highly recommend to anyone who has suffered traumas and has unresolved feelings towards past events that linger into the present to help heal and move forward.
”
“I have just finished the yoga retreat and my energy levels feel replenished and my emotional wellbeing has been nourished. My body has fewer aches and pains and I have some new skills to help me keep this up. I will now go to the weekly yoga class!”
“Difficult to really put in words how valuable this time has been. Angela was incredibly thoughtful and caring, and this really came across in everything we were offered. Really was a healing retreat in all senses of the phrase. I’ve come away feeling really inspired, and I also feel I now have a practical and realistic toolkit of techniques to bring into my practice, that is going to be transformative for my mental and physical wellbeing going forward.”
“I gained a deeper appreciation for spiritual practices and healing the mind and body. I have gained some more social skills. I have gained a number of personal things to work and improve on such as, working on being my authentic self in social settings which I hope will be a final step in overcoming this particular anxiety. I’ve gained some fairly simple things like quick easy healthy recipes that will improve my mental health. Friends and more.
I would recommend it 1000x over. This was a special experience for me and I will definitely be encouraging others to try it. I’ve already recommended gong healing session to a friend.”
“I am still blown away by the results of the therapy, it’s made a huge difference to my grief and I can talk about my friend, and that day, without it completely unsettling my soul and day. Incredible!
I’m not sure how to show my gratitude for your support and guidance in other than to communicate what a difference it has made in helping ease my soul.”
“The accommodation is amazing, the retreat so relaxing and thought provoking and the relaxation sessions so memorable. It was just the space and time I needed to recover from a challenging few months”
“A wonderful relaxing, yet powerful retreat. A much needed ‘time out’ from a busy life”
“Another amazing retreat, I feel I am coming home to be nurtured and cared for. Your retreat is like one big hug”
“What a place, stunningly beautiful, perfect retreat!
”

I feel I am leaving a different person to when I arrived. I have learnt many tools to take away. I will be back and spreading the word of this amazing place - Sept 2021
Jane (Weekend Retreat)
Just keep doing what you’re doing. The gong bath on Friday night just set the tone for the whole weekend. I feel relaxed, revitalised, well fed and rested, which I didn’t think was possible in such a short time. Angela’s voice and manner is so soothing; so knowledgeable and willing to share to give us yoga tools and recipes to have for home - Sept 2021

What can I say, life changing therapy. July 2021
Robert
Just want to say thank you for being one of the biggest positive changes in my life. I am now in a strong mental position training regularly and spending time with family. Now after much soul searching I’m going to start planning my future a lot more. Not too late to find the way. I’m now on the ‘what could I do’ path and see where it takes me. But honestly Ange, thank you so much for your kindness and thank you for sincerely believing I’m a good person. June 2021
Maria
Thank you so much for your help and inspiration, I was in a very difficult place and you helped me to see what a balanced life can really look like, I’ll always be grateful. 2021

Angela has a very engaging speaking style and you instantly warm to her. It was great to hear her speak and I look forward to hearing her again soon. 2021
Helen
Before I started yoga with Angela I thought it was just a way of improving my flexibility. Now I embrace it in my every day life and it’s made a huge difference. How I manage stress has completely changed my life and I feel so much more in control now. 2021
Ian
I thought I knew my own mind until I worked with Angela, she helped me to explore the hidden memories that just kept causing me problems. I’ve lost all the numbness I felt for years and I feel alive again. I can never thank you enough. 2020
Bernadette
I had so many issues with other people and their behaviours but since taking on board your guidance I have changed how I feel about things and my life has started to radically change. People around me have started to change just like you said they would and they don’t even realise. I just needed to embrace the change that was within me. Thank you for your wisdom. 2018
