Performer Angela Garwood spent a weekend at Gayles, a converted family farm in Eastbourne, on Roz Robinson's Walking, Yoga, Meditation, Silence retreat, where 18 guests mostly women kept quiet for over 36 hours. Garwood swam in the pool beneath the Seven Sisters' white chalk cliffs, practiced yoga, and cried and pep-talked herself alone in her room. Robinson, a 66-year-old yoga teacher and former psychotherapist, framed the silence as a car's MOT, a reset. Garwood left planning to build daily stillness into her routine.
