Welcome to Mind Body Lab
– A Hidden Gem in Nature’s Embrace
Tucked away just north of Wolverhampton, on a peaceful acre of land beside Hatherton Junction canal, Mind Body Lab offers a retreat setting unlike any other; available to hire for your own workshops, classes and day retreats.
From the moment your guests arrive, they’re met with birdsong, open skies and an immediate sense of calm. The outside world softens. Time slows down. It’s the perfect backdrop for yoga, breathwork, meditation, sound journeys, women’s circles, men’s work, creative workshops or holistic mini-retreats.
Inside, our warm and welcoming reception and café greets visitors with soft lighting, natural scents and relaxed, sociable seating. It’s an ideal space for arrivals, teas, shared meals and post-session conversations that help your group bond and integrate their experience.
Our bright, spacious studio comfortably hosts 20 people, striking a beautiful balance between openness and intimacy. Whether you’re guiding movement, stillness or deep inner work, every participant feels held by the space.
Just off the main area, a peaceful conservatory overlooks our garden and the canal beyond – perfect for journalling, one-to-one chats, or quiet reflection between sessions. Nature is never far away here: kingfishers flash past the windows, herons wander the banks and, in spring, ducklings and goslings bring gentle joy to the day.
Outdoors, guests can spill into our large garden for fresh air practices, mindful walks or relaxed lunches surrounded by greenery. We also have a bespoke outdoor calisthenics and movement area, offering a unique option for strength, mobility or playful embodied sessions in the open air.
To deepen the retreat experience, our Recovery Suite is now fully open. Facilitators can incorporate powerful contrast and restoration practices using a sensory deprivation floatation pod for profound mental and nervous system reset, a two-person infrared sauna for gentle detox and warmth and a two-person cold plunge for invigorating cold water therapy. These can be booked as part of your hire, allowing you to create truly memorable, fully rounded retreat experiences.
Beyond the garden lies our private lake, an ideal spot for lakeside meditations, contemplative walks or simply sitting in silence with your group.
Mind Body Lab is a living, breathing wellness environment designed to foster connection to Self, to others and to nature. Every corner of the venue has been thoughtfully created by Karina and Ben to feel calm, grounding and quietly inspiring.
Whether you’re looking to hire the space for a few hours, half a day or a full day retreat, we offer a rare combination of professional facilities and natural beauty. Bring your own community, share your own practice and let the setting do the rest.
Host your next workshop or retreat at Mind Body Lab – a sanctuary your students will remember long after they leave.
