INTRODUCTION SAMADHI SOUL YOGA RETREAT

​

Come and recharge on one of the most magical places in the world.

Wouldn’t some time out to unwind and totally relax be divine? Especially after the recent challenging global events of the last few months.

Join us to get away from it all and help your soul shine on the infamous white island. Ibiza is opening all flights globally from 1st July from all countries. 

So join us and treat yourself to a nourishing week in paradise surrounded by nature. 

A chance to switch off from responsibilities and unplug from day to day stresses, putting a spring back into your step. 

​

This transformative week will help you find the reset button via an exploration of ‘balance’ in all its aspects.  We will be embarking on experiences of yoga and breath-work, through to a range of uplifting and relaxing activities and most importantly nourishing ourselves with delicious nutritious gut health themed plant based food.  We will be rebalancing the body and mind connection through movement and the flow of breath, reconnecting our inner worlds to the world around us. Through our daily asanas and body work we will strengthen and realign our bodies. And through gut healthy nutritiously designed food & individualised nutrition assessments we will allow the flow of energy to both cleanse and rejuvenate our digestive systems. 

This is more than just a yoga retreat, this is a healing transformational week to help destress, detox & re-balance your body nutritionally, physically, mentally and spiritually, helping your soul to shine.

SAMADHI SOUL YOGA CLASSES

We (Mays & Scarlett) will hold space for you throughout the retreat inviting you to move into a safe, effective and therapeutic yoga practice. Tapping into the transformative energies that the island of Ibiza offers, we go back to basics and engage with the opposing elements of masculine & feminine, yin and yang, sun and moon, heating and cooling. Working to synchronise movement with breath we invite more harmony and balance into our bodies and souls. If yoga is quite new to you we will make sure you can access the postures with modifications suited to your level and if you are a long time practitioner we will give you some extra coaching to take your practice to the next level. 

MORNING SESSIONS
We will start every morning with a Dynamic Yoga Practice based on elements from ashtanga, rocket, vinyasa and acro yoga to activate your physical and energetic bodies. Using breathing techniques such as pranayama and meditation, we will support you to balance your physical, energetic, emotional and mental bodies. Most importantly we will ensure that the morning sessions are a fun way to engage with yourself on many levels, experimenting with different styles of yoga.

AFTERNOON SESSIONS 

In the afternoon we enjoy a different flavour of relaxing practices that allow us to tune into and balance our emotional and mental levels.
Meditative hatha sessions are your invitation to slow down and cultivate a loving and gentle attitude to yourself. Throughout the week we will explore practices that open and release at the level of the heart centre. Taking time to tune into how and what we are feeling whilst cultivating more appreciation and gratitude towards ourselves. 

Osho Dynamic Meditations. These moving meditations are a wonderful way to stir and shake up the energy inside of us. A great invitation to let go of inhibitions and free up your mind and soul. 

EVENING SESSIONS

The evening practices will vary and will be a beautiful and nourishing time to integrate the experiences of the day into our system helping to send us off to a blissful sleep.

Guided Meditation practices support us to move into a place of stillness and silence. Where we can allow ourselves to ‘let go’ and surrender into the deeper realms of our being to touch on and experience the inner peace and harmony that lies within.

Yoga Nidra or yogic sleep is a very special practice in which we introduce the seeds of change into our subconscious to support positive and beneficial transformations. If there is some habit or addiction that you are working to eliminate from your life, this practice could be the key to long term change and healing. Research has proven that yoga nidra practises can help to reduce stress, anxiety, depression, improving sleep and mood disorders. 

Quantum Light Breath. We hold space for you to experience the deeply penetrative work of the quantum light breath. In these sessions we explore the healing power of the breath combined with the deep vibrational sounds of the didgeridoo and toning to release old beliefs and patterns allowing us to re-connect to the radiance of our true nature.

​

SAMADHI SOUL NOURISHMENT 

Food is life. What we put in our body directly impacts on our health and wellbeing. We will be eating healthy, plant based, gluten free, nutritious meals that will replenish and invigorate, filling us with energy and increasing our life force. 

The overall nutrition theme for the retreat will be to improve gut health with lots of ferments, kombucha & other delights to ensure our tummies are happy. You can look forward to fresh locally sourced ingredients, living nutritious foods, yummy juices & vibrantly delicious dinners all made with our magical secret ingredients: passion and love. 

Mays will personally design our nutritionally balanced gut nourishing menu with one of Ibiza's most sought after chefs Ally Beattie (trust me his food is divine!). She is happy and available to answer any nutritional queries about the meals throughout the retreat and during guests individual consultations & of course all dietary requirements will be catered for.

SAMADHI SOUL LOCATION
Ibiza  The ‘white island’ is simply enchanting and at its best in September. The beaches are heavenly, the water is warm and the island has an atmosphere of peace after the busy-ness of the summer months. 

Casa Solara, our sanctuary, a beautiful finca in the middle of the tranquil Ibizan countryside is the perfect space for you to press pause, unwind and reset. Casa Solara is based close to the town of Santa Eulalia in the north of the island, surrounded by fields of fig trees perfectly ripe in September. The villa has the most peaceful healing energy you can imagine with nothing but the sounds of birds singing around you. It is very common for lifelong friendships to blossom during Casa Solara retreats due its positive energy & magical vibrations.
