Aromatherapy Retreats Through the Seasons
A half-day to slow down, breathe and make your own seasonal aromatherapy blend to take home.
Imagine stepping away from everyday noise into a soft, quiet space where your shoulders finally drop and you can truly exhale.
I am Maria Morgan, founder of Esker Fields Wellbeing. Our Seasonal Aromatherapy Retreats are calm, nurturing days that help you reconnect with yourself through essential oils, breath and gentle relaxation.
Each retreat reflects the energy of the season, and you will create your own aromatherapy product to take home, tailored to the time of year and what you need most right now.

What you’ll experience on every retreat
What previous guests say
Maria has a calmness about her and when you walk into a room where she is, you straight away start feeling like you are at peace. Add essential oils to the mix, and your mind and body relax.
Her (September workshop) Autumn Pause Retreat was incredible. I walked away understanding about different oils, how they work and what they help you with. The body wash I created wakes me up each morning, with a scent that is revitalising and allows me to listen to what I need that day.
If you need a moment to step away from chaos and find calm, Maria’s workshop is definitely the place.
A really enjoyable workshop, where we explored the different oils and got to make our own blends from those we felt most drawn to. Maria has created a lovely, relaxing space to step back from the busy-ness of life and just be.
Thank you very much for the retreat! I would like to say, that the retreat has exceeded my expectations. The environment felt very welcoming and relaxing. Entering the world of essential oils was more than just smells, it was a connection to myself and the world around me. That's so captivating and powerful and Maria's guidance really helps you understand it, navigate it and connect to it. Really recommend it to anyone wanting to explore the power of essential oils in their own life.
About Maria
I am the founder of Esker Fields and a qualified Aromatherapist, Reiki Master and Bio Energy Therapist. Before I followed my passion for holistic healing, I spent 20 years working in Adult Education and hold a BA in Adult Education. Teaching and supporting adults through change has always been at the heart of my work.
After a period of severe work related stress, I became so unwell I was unable to work for 11 months. I was mentally, emotionally and physically burned out, and conventional medicine could not fully support my recovery.
During my journey back to wellness I began to explore holistic healing methods and discovered just how powerful they can be for restoring balance and wellbeing.
This experience gave me a real and personal understanding of the impact that prolonged stress has on the body and mind. I have seen in my own life how simple acts of self care, practiced consistently, can gently rebuild resilience and bring you back to yourself. I am especially passionate about anchoring these moments of self care with the aromas of essential oils, so that your body and mind begin to associate those scents with calm, comfort and ease.
At Esker Fields I bring together my professional training, my background in adult education and my own healing journey to create a warm, nurturing and safe space. I know how hard it can be to slow down and allow yourself to receive support, so I meet each person with genuine care, respect and compassion.
I am on a mission to share my love of aromatherapy and holistic therapies and to create an environment where you have the time and space to connect in a deeply personal way with essential oils. My retreats are designed to be gentle and restorative, inviting you to pause, breathe and reconnect with yourself.
When you come to Esker Fields you are not just another guest. You are welcomed, listened to and supported, so that you can leave feeling calmer, clearer and more in tune with your own inner wisdom.
