I've been at the ASHA Centre through the years. I had the great opportunity of being mentored by Zerbanoo Gifford and, more recently, by renowend psicotherapist Matthew Williams.The ASHA Centre for me is the place where I could find out what I needed to do in my life.After being there as a young student, I went on to study Peace and Conflict Transformation at University. Since then, I've been working in Anti-Trafficking and for the evaluation of International Protection requests by AsylumSeekers for the italian Ministry of Interior.My life was shaped by the experience at the ASHA Centre and I like to go back from time to time, when I need to reconnect deeply with myself.I shall forever be greatful to the ASHA Centre, as a welcoming place where I know I can find my true self every time.

Last week I was part of a Water Only Fasting Retreat at The Asha Centre with Claire Amos and her wonderful team.It was the perfect place for this type of retreat. The accommodation was warm, and very comfortable.It was such a peaceful location away from the hustle and bustle of modern life and the garden and grounds…even in February, we’re beautiful. Thank you!

Asha Centre – A Life-Changing Sanctuary Since 2008 (5 Stars)I first visited the Asha Centre all the way back in 2008, and it left a mark on my heart that hasn't faded since.What makes this place truly magical is the people and the opportunities it opens up. Mrs. Gifford was incredibly kind and helpful—she went out of her way to help me secure a scholarship that allowed me to finish my studies in the UK. During my time there, I also had the privilege of meeting many distinguished individuals, including Thomas Chan, the Deputy Lord Lieutenant of London. These encounters truly broadened my horizons and opened many doors for me.The Asha Center helps you grow as a person. It taught me how to communicate with people from all walks of life and provided me with invaluable performance opportunities. It played a huge role in my personal and professional development.And let's not forget the environment—it is absolutely stunning. The air is so fresh and clean, and the moment you arrive, you can just feel the chaos of the world melting away. It’s like stepping into a different reality where all the noise and stress don’t matter anymore. You can truly find total inner peace here. I love just walking around the grounds, watching the plants grow, or simply watching the sun rise and set. It really helps you appreciate the simple, beautiful things in life.If you need a place to recharge, grow, and connect with nature and inspiring people, this is it. The Asha Centre isn't just a location; it’s a spiritual sanctuary and a catalyst for positive change. Highly recommend.

Asha centre is an amazing place. From the moment I arrived, the atmosphere was calm, welcoming, and deeply restorative. The setting is beautiful and thoughtfully maintained, and the hospitality is awesome, creating the perfect space to relax and reconnect. I left the retreat feeling grounded, inspired, and grateful for the experience. I would highly recommend it to anyone seeking rest, reflection, and renewal.

We have visited and enormously enjoyed several visits to this splendid Asha Centre. On our last visit we were treated like Kings and were enthralled by the beauty of the gardens. The different meeting places that had been established were suited to the diversity of visitors, groups and their unique activities. Overall we were once again thrilled by the serenity of the location, the warmth of the hospitality and the ethos of human togetherness beyond all creeds and divisions. We wish you even greater success in the future.Nigel Hughes Founder Outstanding.GlobalRic Edelman - Writer
