Investment: £20.00. Time: 1 Hour
Join RetreatMe at the unique urban retreat in the heart of Leeds city centre Roots of Respect. After a busy week we invite you to root, to ground, to slow down.
Sound Therapy is a holistic practice that uses sound and vibration to help to improve physical and emotional well being. The different frequencies of the instruments played in a sequence can influence our brainwaves to slow down, helping us to relax and create a feeling of calm.
Sound Therapy can help with reducing stress, calm the mind, improve sleep, reduce tension and rebalance our nervous system.
Arrive at 18.30 for hot teas and treats, then settle onto your mat for breath work, sound and relaxation.
Time to let your body and brain….. just be.
** No experience required just an open mind, comfortable clothes, a comfy jumper, socks and an eye mask if desired.
Natural Skin solutions by Est skinlab
approaching skin through a medical, evidence-based lens
From Pharmacist to Korean Skin Health Advocate: My Journey to Healing Skin from Within.
Investment: £20 Consultation (redeemable on your first booking) Time: 20 Minutes
As an Advanced Clinical Pharmacist, moving into aesthetics was a natural step — combining a strong pharmaceutical background with a passion for real, lasting skin solutions.
My own skincare journey led me to embrace the principles of Korean beauty: prevention, nourishment, and fundamental care. It’s about listening to your skin, restoring balance, and using professional treatments that work in harmony with its natural biology.
After transforming my own skin through patience and consistent care, I gained my VTCT Aesthetic qualification to bring the same results-driven, balanced approach to my clients. My goal is to help you achieve clear, confident, and healthy skin that truly feels like your own.
If it’s your first visit, start with a personalised skin consultation — it’s the best way for me to understand your needs and create a tailored treatment plan. Plus, the consultation fee is fully redeemable against your first treatment.
AYURVEDIC YOGA MASSAGE THERAPY
DAILY MASSAGE WITH AYM | ROOTS COLLECTIVE
Experience the physical, mental and emotional power of Ayurvedic Yoga Massage Therapy
Investment: £62 Time: 1 Hour
Created with wisdom, by master Kusum Modak, AYMT is inspired by her knowledge of authentic yoga and Ayurvedic massage. The complete method counts on over 120 manoeuvres, allowing a tailored approach to each client.
Slow and deep touches characterise the method. Using natural oils and powders extracted from the medicinal plant cálamo, therapists perform deep work using a combination of glides, traction, and pressure with both the hands and feet. This stimulates the circulation and prepares the body for assisted stretches.
This intense work, combined with conscious breathing, bestows a state of meditation and recuperation of our vital energy, also known as prana. An indescribable sensation of well-being arises when tense muscles relax, the joints gain space, and the mind is quiet.

Personal & Academic Coach
ROOT DEEP, STAND Tall, BRANCH OUT @ Bryony Rowntree Coaching
Group coaching session on ‘Overriding overwhelm and walking through the academic year with clarity and space to breathe’
Investment: £42 Time: 2 Hours
Bryony Rowntree, a professional and personal development coach who has been coaching for 8 years and working with women and teams in universities for 6 years, is running a short session for a small group of women (academics and professional services) online and here at Roots of Respect to support you in accessing more clarity and a stronger sense of agency over the workload!
Overload and overwhelm are common themes with the women she works with.
Overload from the reality of the workload that is often untenable, even before care responsibilities are brought into the picture.
And overwhelm from being sucked into the ‘way academia is done’, working for eternal progression (even if this is your dream, it can be exhausting), constantly saying yes and having no idea how to get out of the loop and/or just about keeping your head above water while juggling a career in academia and managing your care responsibilities, which can increase or decrease as soon as you turn your back, so you stay on alert 24/7.
