A half-day portal out of modern life

A candlelit, half-day sanctuary for people who need to step out of the pace of modern life, if only for a while.

This is not a workshop or a self-improvement session. It’s a small, candlelit pocket outside of modern life where the sticky chai stays warm, the clocks soften, and you’re invited to be human again.

We spend so much of our lives holding our breath. Waiting for the next task, the next meeting, the next version of ourselves to arrive.

Our Enchanted Chai Sanctuary is where you finally get to exhale.

No pressure.
No fixing.
No performance.

Just arrival.

Before You Arrive

You’re invited to come as cosy as you like.

Think:

• oversized jumpers
• soft layers
• onesies, if that’s your thing
• fluffy socks or slippers

If you’re coming straight from work, you'll have time to change. Changing out of your day is part of the ritual.

The Journey: The Silly & The Sublime

Our half-day sanctuary unfolds slowly, with space to rest, wander and play.

I. The Ritual: Alchemy of the Kettle
We begin by brewing sticky chai together. Whole spices, rising steam, warmth in the hands. A gentle threshold between the world you’ve stepped out of and the sanctuary you’ve entered.

II. The Sublime: The Unpolished Self
On scattered floor cushions in soft light, we explore the relief of being imperfectly perfect. With gentle, optional journaling prompts, you’re invited to meet the version of yourself that doesn’t need to be super polished, productive or impressive.

III. The Silly: Creating Your Dreamscape
We end with playful creativity. Cutting, pasting and dreaming, you’ll begin to blueprint your own Cosy Corner, a sanctuary you can recreate at home. You’ll also craft your own bespoke sticky chai blend to name and take with you: a small portal back to this feeling.

The Close

We finish slowly.
Conversation drifts or doesn’t.

This is escapism of the gentlest kind.
Not running away,  just stepping sideways for a while.

Leave a little softer.
