Yoga & Creative Wellbeing Retreat
Thursday, August 31st – Monday, September 4th
5 days, 4 nights
Take time to recharge with an extended weekend of movement, mindfulness, and connection to your higher goals. Each day, you’ll enjoy an energizing morning flow and a calming evening practice, paired with themed workshops to help you rediscover your creative passions.
Nerja, Spain
Find peace in the calm environment of Nerja, a charming village on the sunny coast of Andalusia, Spain. The relaxed pace in Nerja gives you the feeling that time doesn’t exist. It’s a cozy beach community where locals take it slow, stay present, and enjoy their daily siesta.
Casa Lavanda
Let us take care of you at Casa Lavanda, a charming oasis that is peacefully tucked away, yet a convenient walk through the town and to the beach of Playa Burriana. We chose this location for the modern yogi, affirming that you don’t need complete isolation to tune inwards and find peace.
