Sometimes I find it hard to motivate myself to leave the house after a hectic day of work and family chores but once I arrive at Viveka Gardens on a Monday evening I straight away feel relaxed and there's an instant calming atmosphere when you reach there.I especially enjoy the nidra yoga at the end which gives me a chance to completely swith off and relax both my mind and body.Out of the poses I enjoy working towards the headstand which is both challenging and brings back an element of childhood fun in trying to achieve this move.Everyone there is also so lovely it's such a welcoming and peaceful place to be.

After our 2 days and 2 nights of mother-daughter retreat, I felt nurtured and tended to amidst the complexities of ministry and motherhood. I particularly appreciated the language Fiona used to offer daily Jesus-centred meditation and yoga practice. The mix of serious yet playful spirituality enabled all of us to gain insights and reflect gently together with humour. Thank you, Fiona, for holding that balance wisely and for allowing us to 'just be' ourselves as a group.

I had a lovely stay at Fiona’s for a weekend yoga retreat. I arrived there completely frazzled from my homelife and work and over the course of the weekend gently unwound through yoga nidras, restorative yoga, quiet reflection, growing food with fingers in the soil on a warm sunny day and walks in the beautiful countryside. The retreat completely refreshed me ready to take on new challenges. I particularly loved the combination of food growing, equinox and yoga. A time of harvest, reflection and nourishment. It seemed the perfect blend for a retreat. Not to mention Fiona’s delicious vegan food - especially the dark chocolate dessert!

A beautiful retreat space in the heart of mid Devon countryside. Inside & the land is peaceful and rejuvenating!I attended the Cooking for your Dosha workshop and loved the food we prepared. Skilful and well paced guidance from Fiona throughout the day with great company.Highly recommended.

Viveka Gardens is beautifully peaceful, Fiona does an incredible job of opening her space with gentleness and freedom to just be! There is a real sense of her coming alongside you wherever you are at in life, and I felt very nurtured by two days of yoga - not to mention wonderful vegan food and lots of laughs

Viveka Gardens is a calming and quiet place run by Fiona. I have completed several course including beginners, practice and gentle yoga. In all classes you can go at your own pace suitable to yourself. Fiona has a wealth of knowledge and is very supportive to what you need. The Nidra at end of each lesson enables me to relax deeply and give myself some much needed inner peace. Each lesson is followed by amazing homemade soup and friendly chat with lovely ladies. Highly recommend Fiona and her lovely retreat.

I booked on a bespoke Mums and daughters retreat hoping for the opportunity to connect with myself and my daughter and switch gear together. We did this and so much more. Fiona’s thoughtful invitations, leading and amazing hosting made us feel very safe and held. V G is an amazing space full of colour, space and light where we felt encouraged and enabled to be ourselves. A real treat.

Here on a 3-night yoga teachers retreat. It's a beautiful place, well off the beaten track, and a haven of peace. Fiona is a warm and inspiring host, and we were very comfortable and well fed with delicious vegan meals made using produce Fiona had grown. The yoga space is clean, comfortable and well equipped. It was wonderful to feel so supported together in sharing teaching, practice and laughter. I felt thoroughly nourished and rested by the end. My only gripe was that the retreat wasn't for 4 nights. Hoping to return very soon...

We had such a lovely few days at Viveka Gardens with Fiona, and I've come home feeling refreshed and relaxed. She looked after us extremely well in her airy and calm retreat space. Her yoga teaching style was very tailored to our requests and capabilities, and there was plenty of time for rest and reflection, as well as swimming in a beautiful river spot and walking to take in the views.

Shared a fabulous teachers retreat with Fiona and other teachers this year. Practicing Karma yoga, whilst scything the orchard, listening to the rain fall in a cosy yoga Nidra and sharing inspiration and knowledge with other teachers was a wonderful and heartfelt experience.. Thank you Fiona for holding the space for us! ❤️
