Break the Cycles That Are Costing You Everything

Saturday 31st August | Dabton House, Dumfries & Galloway


The Hidden Crisis Destroying Lives, Careers & Relationships

Right now, whilst you're reading this, stress and burnout are costing the UK economy £57.4 billion annually. But here's what the statistics don't tell you: the real cost isn't measured in GDP, it's measured in the dreams you've stopped pursuing, the relationships you've damaged, and the person you've forgotten you could be.

If you're experiencing any of these, you're not alone:

  • Waking up tired despite sleeping 7-8 hours

  • Snapping at people you love over trivial things

  • Feeling like a fraud despite your achievements (imposter syndrome)

  • Procrastinating on important decisions that could change your life

  • Working harder but feeling less fulfilled than ever

  • Knowing you're capable of more but feeling stuck in invisible quicksand

This isn't your fault. But it is your responsibility to change it.


The Real Cost of Doing Nothing

What Burnout & Limiting Beliefs Are Actually Costing You

Financially:

  • 21% of people admit their productivity is impacted by stress - that's potentially 1 day per week of reduced performance

  • Average UK salary £35,000 = £7,000 annually in lost earning potential

  • Career stagnation from lack of confidence = £100,000+ in lifetime earnings

Physically:

  • Chronic stress ages you 6 years faster (proven by telomere research)

  • Sleep disruption costs you 23% cognitive function the next day

  • You're literally paying with years of your life

Relationally:

  • 67% of relationship breakdowns cite stress as a contributing factor

  • Children of stressed parents are 40% more likely to develop anxiety disorders

  • Your unhealed patterns become your family's inheritance

The opportunity cost of staying stuck: Priceless memories, relationships, and potential you'll never get back.


Why Traditional Solutions Fail (And Why This Works)

What Hasn't Worked

  • Weekend breaks: Temporary relief, same problems return Monday

  • Meditation apps: Surface-level Band-Aids on deep wounds

  • Traditional therapy: £50-£80 per hour, takes months to see results

  • "Self-care" routines: More pressure to be perfect, not addressing root causes

What Makes Release + Renew Different

This isn't wellness tourism. This is psychological surgery.

We don't give you more things to do—we remove the internal blocks that stop you from being who you're meant to be. In 8 hours, you'll accomplish what typically takes 3 months of traditional coaching.


What Actually Happens (And Why It Works)

Excavation (The Real Work Begins)

09:00 - Welcome Circle & Nervous System Reset
We begin where traditional approaches end—with your nervous system. Until you feel safe in your body, no lasting change is possible.

09:30 - Precision Diagnosis
Through guided group coaching and reflective journaling, we identify the exact limiting beliefs that are running your life. Not generic "I'm not good enough"—the specific stories that are costing you money, relationships, and peace.

10:30 - Neurological Rewiring
Using proven Neurolinguistic Programming and visualisation techniques, we literally rewire your brain's default patterns. This isn't positive thinking—it's precision engineering for your unconscious mind.

Integration (Where Magic Happens)

11:30 - Somatic Reset
Yoga Nidra and Pranayama to regulate your nervous system and integrate new neural pathways. Your body keeps the score—and we're changing what it's counting.

13:00 - Luxury Reset
Executive chef-prepared nourishing buffet lunch in the stunning gardens of Dabton House. This isn't just food—it's fuel for your transformation.

Activation (Your New Beginning)

14:30 - Reclaiming Your Joy
Sound Bath Healing and Vishoka Meditation to train your mind to remain clear, focused, and naturally joyful. Not forced positivity—authentic inner peace.

16:30 - Fire Ritual Release
A powerful closing ceremony to burn away what no longer serves you and claim your authentic, unashamed self. This is where transformation becomes permanent.
