Finding inner calm while living in the city can seem impossible. However, psychotherapist and biodynamic psychologist Fiona Arrigo founded A Place to Heal in Holland Park to offer an escape from the fast lane of everyday life. New for autumn 2019, is the Evolutionary Woman programme. The one-day weekend retreat focuses on how women can drive great change to create a more connected world, and how to thrive in an environment that requires attention, awareness and mindfulness.
