Discover The Herdman Healing Sanctuary
Welcome to where magic happens….The Roundhouse
Martin and Libby Herdman have created a beautiful, unique and sacred space where healing, learning and spiritual connection come together.
Nestled in the heart of the South Downs National Park, surrounded by farmland and ancient forest, their sanctuary offers a safe and welcoming environment to receive healing, deepen self-discovery, and walk a more conscious path alongside a community of like-minded souls.
At the heart of their work is the spirit of the mystery school — a gentle remembering that healing is not simply something we receive, but a journey we embody together.
Through shared experiences, workshops, ceremonies, circles and healing practices, they invite people to gather in community, explore ancient wisdom, awaken intuition, and reconnect with a deeper sense of meaning and belonging.
The Roundhouse was lovingly created as a sanctuary of peace, where gemstones and precious objects were placed within the earth before the floor was laid, infusing the space with intention, grounding and safety.
As you enter, many people feel a deep calm and sense of being held — a nurturing environment where the nervous system can soften, the heart can open, and true healing can begin.
The Roundhouse was built with love for those seeking peace, connection, transformation and a way forward.
Whether you come for healing, learning, spiritual growth or simply to find your tribe, you will be warmly welcomed into a compassionate and supportive community.
After time spent within our sanctuary, many leave feeling refreshed, balanced, inspired and more deeply connected — not only to themselves, but to something far greater.

Our Approach to Healing
At The Herdman Healing Sanctuary, we believe that every person holds the innate potential for healing, awakening and spiritual growth. Our work is rooted in the understanding that true transformation occurs when the mind, body and spirit are brought into harmony — each honoured as a sacred aspect of the self, deserving of care, reverence and conscious attention.
We see the spiritual journey as a path of remembering; a returning to inner wisdom, deeper connection and alignment with the soul. Through our healing work, teachings, ceremonies and community gatherings, we create safe and supportive spaces where individuals can explore their own path, expand their awareness, and reconnect with the deeper essence of who they truly are.
Our philosophy is woven through every aspect of what we offer. Drawing upon many years of study, healing practice and lived experience, we share the knowledge, tools and spiritual teachings that have supported our own journeys, with the intention of helping others walk theirs with greater confidence, clarity and connection.
Our teachings place strong emphasis on grounded spiritual practice — not only the sacredness of the healing act itself, but also the importance of learning how to create a safe, authentic and heart-centred connection to source energy. We believe spiritual development should be both deeply meaningful and practically embodied, allowing wisdom to be integrated into everyday life.
At the heart of The Herdman Healing Sanctuary is the coming together of like-minded souls — a compassionate and evolving community of seekers, healers and spiritually curious individuals walking alongside one another in shared growth, learning and transformation.
The Herdman Healing Sanctuary is proud to be an accredited training centre with the Complementary Medical Association (CMA).
Introducing Martin & Libby
Martin and Libby have come together to realise a lifelong vision of creating The Herdman Healing Sanctuary — a sacred healing and wellness space devoted not only to personal transformation, but to the building of conscious community and the support of others on their spiritual journey.
With over 30 years of experience across many aspects of healing, spirituality and holistic wellbeing, they have studied with a wide range of teachers, traditions and healing schools. Their shared passion is to create a welcoming sanctuary where like-minded people can gather to heal, grow, learn and reconnect — both with themselves and with the natural world around them.
Their intention is to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others by offering a diverse range of experiences and support, including one-to-one healing sessions, spiritual guidance, ceremonies, retreats, yoga, meditation, nutritional support, compound supplements, and Gong Master Healer Training for those called to deepen their healing path and work with sound as medicine.
At the heart of their work is a deep reverence for nature, Mother Earth and the healing power of authentic connection. Through community gatherings, shared learning and sacred practices, Martin and Libby hope to create a space where people feel seen, supported and inspired as they awaken to their own inner wisdom and spiritual potential.
