2022
19th - 22nd may (3 nights)
15th - 19th JUNE (4 nights)
ANDALUCIA, SPAIN
GIVE YOURSELF THE GIFT OF MAKING SPACE TO RESET AND RECHARGE. JOIN ME FOR a long weekend IN BEAUTIFUL SURROUNDINGS, WITH TWICE DAILY YOGA AND MEDITATION, ALONG WITH DELICIOUS FOOD, FRESH MOUNTAIN AIR AND TIME FOR REST AND RELAXATION. WE WILL EXPLORE HOW TO CHALLENGE OURSELVES THROUGH OUR YOGA PRACTICE, HOW TO OPEN OURSELVES TO WHAT IS HERE IN THIS MOMENT, AND HOW TO FIND INNER STILLNESS WHICH CAN BE CARRIED BACK HOME TO THE CONTINUOUS MOVEMENT OF OUR LIVES.
Join me in 2022 for an injection of summer sunshine in this beautiful retreat space set in the mountains of southern Spain. Every day I will offer you two yoga and meditation classes where we will move strongly to stretch and strengthen our bodies, whilst creating the space needed to adjust the nervous system and gain perpective for lasting change and rejuvination. The morning practice will be a strong stretch and strengthening practice and the afternoon session will take the form of a yoga workshop so that you leave the retreat with a better understanding of your own practice on the mat, whether you are joining us a beginner or a seasoned yogi. In addition, enjoy delicious home-cooked organic vegetarian meals al fresco, a dip in the outdoor pool, a swing in the hammock with the book you’ve been longing to read, or simply star-gaze from the outdoor jacuzzi. This retreat will be small and intimate, offering both time to socialise and moments for quiet self reflection - the option will be yours.

Accommodation:
Set in the rural mountains of East Andalusia, 45 minutes from Malaga airport, this retreat complex consists of 5 self contained buildings which surround the communal gardens and pool. You can choose to stay in either a one room studio which can sleep up to two people and has a bathroom and kitchenette, or in a bungalow which can sleep up to four people across two bedrooms and has a single shared bathroom and kitchenette. Each building provides exclusive outdoor space in the form of a roof terrace, balcony, or patio area which look out across views of the expansive valley.
What if I am travelling by myself?
Many travellers come solo and find they make long lasting friendships in doing so. Depending on your budget, you can either choose to take sole occupancy of a room or I will pair you with a like-minded traveller as your room buddy whom I will put you in touch with in advance of the retreat.

feedback from previous participants:
“All I can say is wow. Thank you. The last few days have given me so much food for thought. I feel like a different person - and yet more like me than ever. I can’t wait to join you again next year.’ — J.M.
“Thank you so much for the wonderful experience on the retreat. I can’t stop thinking about the last four days. I came back reborn.” — S.C.
“I genuinely feel like last weekend on the retreat changed my outlook on life. Might sound dramatic but I literally have changed my attitude and outlook at work and I swear it’s down to the retreat. 3 people at work said they’ve never seen me happier. I just feel so much more relaxed and have a bit of perspective in a way I haven’t felt in at least the last year. So I just wanted to say a massive thank you.” — K.D.
“Thank you Juliet for the most relaxing and wonderful retreat experience.” — K.G.
