What You'll Experience & Discover
Tap into the earth's heart chakra: Glastonbury sits at the intersection of powerful ley lines and holds a rare continuity of spiritual practice—where ancient traditions remain alive in the land itself, not reconstructed, but continuously honored for thousands of years.
Master the language of ritual: Learn how to move through ceremony with intention, understanding the practices that have grounded human beings in meaning and connection since the beginning of time.
Reclaim your sovereignty: Apply ancient wisdom to your modern life—from daily grounding practices to decision-making rooted in your own inner knowing rather than external noise.
Walk the sacred sites: Journey to the Tor, Chalice Well, and the surrounding wetlands—places where the veil is thin and where thousands of years of devotion have shaped the very ground beneath your feet.

More Than a Retreat—A Return Home
For thousands of years, Glastonbury has called seekers and pilgrims to its sacred ground. This isn't a typical wellness retreat. Over 6 transformative days and 5 nights (May 19-24, 2027), you'll step into a living tradition of ritual, remembrance, and restoration. We'll walk the ancient pathways of the Tor, sit in ceremony at the Chalice Well, and move through the Somerset landscape as pilgrims have for millennia. You'll reconnect with earth rhythms that your body already remembers, reawaken the language of ritual in your bones, and reclaim the part of you that knows the way home. This pilgrimage is designed for those ready to move beyond the surface—to remember who they are and step fully into their sovereignty.
What People Are Saying
Those who have walked this path before share what the pilgrimage awakened in them. Real stories from real seekers who came to remember and left transformed.
I joined the retreat because I had complete trust in Laura. Over the years, I've experienced the spaces she creates and have always been impressed by her ability to deeply understand the energies of the places we visit, while also respecting each person's energetic needs, boundaries, and capacity. That trust made saying yes an easy decision. I also knew that the women Laura attracts would be like-minded, open-hearted, and respectful, creating a space where I could simply be myself. My instinct was absolutely right. From beginning to end, the retreat felt safe, supportive, and beautifully held. What unfolded was a deeply personal and transformative experience. There was no pressure to be anything other than who I was, and that allowed real reflection, healing, and growth to happen naturally. Every detail felt intentional, and I came away feeling lighter, more grounded, and with a renewed sense of clarity. If you're considering one of Laura's retreats, trust yourself if you're feeling the pull. I certainly did, and I'm incredibly grateful that I listened. It was a beautiful experience that will stay with me for a long time.

Laura’s presence and ability to hold spaces and create rituals that deeply change you is incredible! I loved her voice in the meditations she shared and I am a different person after her Glastonbury retreat.

Laura’s Avalon Pilgrimage was incredibly healing. Even though the first days were challenging for me since I’ve experienced another awakening, I released a huge block that was holding me back in my healing work and medicine in business. The carefully curated activities helped to uncover and embrace parts of me that were forgotten or suppressed by conditioning. I was cracked wide open and with the second part of the pilgrimage in the Apothecary Garden’s is where everything landed deeply and integrated so that I left calm, relaxed and with more clarity for my next steps. I loved that sisters from all walks of life and all over the world joined and that we’ve created such a strong bond of sisterhood in such a short amount of time. Incredible! I’m so looking forward to meet them again! The wand crafting and hydrolat workshop were the cherries on top! I really loved communing with the plants and trees to receive clarity and direction and have a physical object to take home to remind myself on this wonderful journey and embrace daily what I’ve learned. I highly recommend the Glastonbury (I prefer calling it Avalon) Pilgrimage. It is not only revealing, it is setting you free.

This journey to Glastonbury with Laura was so special in so many ways. It has been a dream of mine to visit - I was so pleased when Laura decided to host one. Beyond the location, it was a dream come true only because Laura is someone I have grown to trust and hold dear to my heart. Having been part of her community for more than 2 years now, I can attest that all her offerings are done with integrity, intention, thoughtfulness and so much love! The community that she has grown is so beautiful - the ladies that she brought to this inaugural journey is a testament to the kind of frequency she cultivates in her space. I truly enjoyed the company and energy of my fellow sisters. We shared laughter, joy, tears and so many heartfelt moments. The activities that she curates were so meaningful and memorable - Everything from hiking the steep slopes to the tor (twice), leather pouch making (I can claim that I can sew now), wand making, potion making, hydrolat making were so much fun. In a world that is obsessed with all things AI, these activities and food catering were so nourishing - food for the soul. A true remembering of what womanhood means - there is so much strength, softness and beauty within and without. Even her welcome gift boxes are put together with so much love and generousity. Her gift box in Sri Lanka was a wow and it is another wow (x2) for Glastonbury. Not to forget - her signature playlist and cacao ceremony are always so so special. Somehow she always manages to really honour whatever land she is on - from Singapore to Sri Lanka to Glastonbury I can go on and on. You have to experience it to get the magic of this journey with Laura. I am honoured to be part of your inaugural pilgrimage to Avalon. Thank you for taking good care of every single one of us. Thank you for the precious memories and sisterhood that I will always hold close to my heart.

Sometimes you are called to a place or experience on a solo visit. And sometimes a place calls to you and you are meant to experience it while in a community or a circle, to have a trusted guide, to arrive on a sacred journey with others walking on a similar path. I am forever grateful to have made my Avalon journey with Laura Yates as my guide, and accompanied by the brilliant cadre of women who were called to her circle. Laura is an accomplished healer and expert space holder, and she organized a complete experience in Glastonbury from start to finish. From curated visits to sacred sites, to one on one teaching from others on the ground there, the details were perfectly chosen to build a sacred experience and then process it. The group was given support for integration using somatic movement, plant medicine and sacred circle. Laura's skill for thorough planning and timely execution for a group retreat was metered by intuitive flexibility when needed by the group or the circumstances. I felt safe, emotionally held, intimately seen and immediately part of the group. We all came with different challenges and needs and Laura somehow catered to all of us. I am forever changed from my time in Avalon and my retreat with Hummingbird Life and Laura Yates.

I’ve joined Laura’s Glastonbury 2026 retreat. I’ve learned about it through my friend Martina. The retreat was extraordinary. It’s been first such experience for me and I loved it. I’d highly recommend it to people exploring their spirituality, higher calling, purpose or just pondering about their next important life decision. Thank you Laura
