The Rowan House 1-Week Residential Stay is our most complete residential experience: seven days of structured support, practical everyday-life work, restorative routine, shared living, reflection, and guided integration.

This programme is designed for people who want meaningful time away from their usual environment to slow down, understand what is not working, and rebuild practical routines that can continue after they return home.

What the week includes

  • Seven-day residential stay at Rowan House
  • Structured daily rhythm with guided sessions, meals, breaks, reflection, and practical activities
  • Occupational-therapy-informed work focused on routines, stress management, meaningful activity, communication, boundaries, planning, and follow-through
  • Shared accommodation in screened sleeping bays
  • Meals during the residential programme
  • Small-group environment with individual attention within the programme structure
  • Practical exercises that can be tested during the week rather than discussed only in theory
  • Personal next-step planning before departure

Enquire about your one-week stay

Who this experience is for

You may be carrying prolonged stress, feeling burnt out or isolated, navigating a major life change, or noticing that your usual habits and coping strategies are no longer helping. You may have lost direction, feel emotionally overwhelmed, or know that something needs to change without being sure where to start.

Rowan House offers a place for practical learning and honest conversation. The programme is broader than substance-use concerns: it explores the routines, patterns, relationships and responses that shape everyday life.

Before joining, a conversation with Yosef helps you understand the approach, explain what you are looking for and discuss whether the programme suits your needs.

What the week is intended to give you

Space to pause. A better understanding of your responses to stress. Tools you can practise. Connection with other men. A clearer sense of what you want to work on next.

The intention is not to solve every difficulty in seven days. It is to create a supported beginning and continue that work after you go home.

Explore the SPR approach

The programme pathway

SPR — Stabilization, Process and Reintegration.
A structured introduction to practical skills, healthier routines, reflection and connection.

Stabilize

Understand nervous-system regulation, grounding and the routines that support steadier daily life.

Learn & practise

Explore patterns, self-awareness and practical skills through morning and afternoon sessions.

Reintegrate

Take learning into everyday life with six weeks of continued integration and group support.

What the residential week includes

Seven overnight stays, meals prepared by Indiana, two daily sessions within 8 a.m.–3 p.m., and space for rest, movement, reflection and conversation. Guests can share allergies, dietary needs and food preferences in their private participant area. Indiana’s weekly menu will be added later.

The intention is to interrupt the usual cycle, build awareness and begin moving forward. Continued support helps participants apply what they have learned after returning home.

YOUR TIME AT ROWAN HOUSE

Stay, learn, practise and reconnect.

Give yourself a week to focus on what comes next. This is an overnight residential experience. You stay at Rowan House for the week, take part in morning and afternoon sessions, and have space between structured learning for meals, rest, movement and conversation.

A typical residential day

The programme runs within 8 a.m.–3 p.m., with two sessions. The timetable below is a proposed starting structure; Yosef will confirm the cohort’s actual schedule.

Before the first session
Breakfast and time to prepare for the day.
8 a.m.–11 a.m.
Morning session: education, guided reflection and practical skills.
11 a.m.–12 p.m.
Lunch and a break between sessions.
12 p.m.–3 p.m.
Afternoon session: practice, discussion and connecting learning to everyday life.
After the programme
Space for rest, movement, reflection and conversation, followed by dinner and an overnight stay.

Meals and your stay

Indiana prepares meals and manages the shopping for the residential week. Before arrival, you can share allergies, intolerances, dietary requirements, foods you prefer and special requests for her to review. Her weekly menu will be added when ready.

The stay takes place at Rowan House itself. Room arrangements, the venue address, accessibility information, arrival and departure times, and a packing guide will be confirmed before a real booking is accepted.

Space beyond the sessions

Structured learning is only one part of the week. Time to slow down, reflect and connect helps you notice how the programme relates to your own life. Rest and conversation sit alongside the practical work.

You leave with strategies and a clearer understanding of what you need to keep working on. The next part of the programme gives you a way to continue.

WEEKS TWO TO SEVEN

Support after your stay.

After the residential week, the package includes six weeks of SPR integration and group support online. This is the bridge between learning in a supported setting and using that learning in your everyday routines, relationships and responsibilities.

Follow-up session dates, frequency and Zoom arrangements will be confirmed for your cohort. The six weeks included in the residential package are distinct from separately booked online groups, Skills & Integration sessions, individual occupational therapy and future programmes.

A community you can remain connected to

After the included programme, you may choose to stay connected through wider Rowan House programming, resources, weekly Lives and peer connection. You do not need to complete another residential retreat to remain part of that wider community. Availability and any separate charges will be explained before you register.

From your first enquiry to follow-up
  1. Start with a conversation

    Tell Yosef what you are looking for, ask questions and discuss whether the programme is an appropriate fit.

  2. Review the complete offer

    Before committing, receive the confirmed dates, currency, package price, room arrangements, follow-up schedule and payment and cancellation terms.

  3. Prepare for your stay

    Once a real place is confirmed, share meal preferences and dietary needs, review arrival information and get ready for the residential week.

  4. Attend the residential introduction

    Stay for seven nights, join the structured sessions and make space for reflection, practical learning and connection.

  5. Continue the six-week integration

    Return home and join the included online support, then decide whether further Rowan House services fit your next steps.
