Wellbeing in Arundel
Did you know, humans can identify far more shades of green than any other colour? That’s because we are wired to feel calmer, less stressed and more creative when surrounded by nature.
Arundel has it all. Not only does the historic town pleasures the eye with its own medieval castle and Victorian cathedral, set along the Arun River, with abundant bird life, Arundel is surrounded by nature. Beautiful walks through the Arundel parkways, Swanbourne lake, and Arundel Wetland Centre.
Meditation, what is it?
Simply walking is a form of meditation. It boosts the brain’s ability to communicate to the rest of your body while also maintaining the structure of your brain’s cell membranes, which improves clarity of mind and memory power. Walking meditation improves the functioning of the lungs and the heart. Arundel is a great place base yourself, surrounded by the perfect walking spots. Unspoilt ancient woodlands walks (Binstead), breath taking views from the South Downs Way, unspoilt coast lines to breath in the sea air, at Climping and West Beach Littlehampton, all just 10 minutes from Arundel.
Want to try a retreat?
Retreats are purposeful getaways that are aimed at healing. They are proven to have long term benefits, surrounded by like-minded company and provide peace and an opportunity to really unwind.
