If anyone is interested I am running Spring Detox/Rejuvenation & Educational Retreat in Casa Santosha, Spain in May...we have 2 spaces left and it's very reasonably priced...read on for full details and let me know if you are interested to join.
Are you feeling tired, possibly stressed, lacking in energy and motivation, maybe heavy physically and mentally after the winter season - then why not join me for our upcoming Ayurveda and Yoga Rejuvenation/Detox retreat in Spain in May. Traditionally spring or late spring are good times for detox/rejuvenation practices. Just like we take our cars to service every year to keep them running well without any problems, a yearly personal rejuvenation programme will help you stay well and uplifted throughout the year.
You may want to read the article I have written below on the importance of a spring cleanse with advice on how to do this. But if you join us in Spain you will be guided and supported through the whole experience. Clear advice will be given on how to prepare for the week, with full support whilst you are with us, and guidance on keeping up the good habits when you leave.
The retreat will be a deeply relaxing and restorative personalized health retreat. Everyone that comes will have a private ayurveda health consultation to guide you to your optimum wellbeing – with support on any specific health issues. We will have a detox diet of simple cleansing, high energy foods based on ayurvedic and yogic principles, with herbs to help balance your digestion and improve your vitality.
You will have 2 warm oil massages during the retreat to support the cleansing/rejuvenation experience with oils that suit your body type.
Each day we will have daily meditation and gentle yoga sessions to include breathing and deep relaxation exercises. We will also have periods of silence to encourage deep rest and restoration of our energy. We will have daily local walks too for exercise and to enjoy the local environment.
Casa Santosha is a perfect place for such a retreat as you will be surrounded by mountains and fresh air. We have our own filtered water from the local spring and there is a natural stillness there that will support the whole experience.
May is a good time too as there should be lots of sun, but not overly hot.
This retreat is perfect for those who:
- Are tired or stressed and want to relax and re-energise
- Want to lose weight
- Want to improve skin quality
- Improve digestion
- Lighten your mood – reduce depression/heaviness
- Get rid of brain fog, headaches and feel clear and bright again
- Boost your immune system
- Find a sense of new inspiration for life
The retreat and consultations will be personally guided by myself, Emma who is an Ayurvedic health consultant and yoga/meditation teacher with many years of experience. Find out more about Emma here.
There will be some practical and theoretical workshops on ayurveda and a cooking session, as well as recommended books to empower you with the wisdom of ayurveda and to support you when you leave.

An introduction to Ayurveda and staying well during the changes of life.
