CLARITY & EASE - Yoga and Meditation in Andalucía with Josie & Alex


CLARITY & EASE - a nourishing week to embody the wisdom, balance, joy and freedom that is Yoga!

Immersed in the wonders of nature, we’ll move, breathe, and be at ease, with meditation to start and end each delightful day. Finca El Moro is a true retreat from the bustle of daily life, a delightful place to relax into the intelligence of the heart.

THE PRACTICE & YOUR GUIDES

NURTURING HATHA YOGA - asana, pranayama (breathwork), philosophy, restorative yoga and yoga nidra are all taught by Josie. Renowned for her gentle, loving, assists, knowledge of functional anatomy, pranayama teachings & practical philosophy, she easefully teaches across all levels of experience/ability. Josie’s teaching is informed by kinesiological clarity, yoga therapeutics and deep veneration for the tradition

TWICE DAILY SITTINGS - and answers to your lingering meditation questions are guided by Alex. Whether you’re an experienced or a beginning meditator, he offers a simple, supportive, non-dogmatic space to learn and explore classic techniques. Through guided sessions (24 mins), silent practice, and open dialogue, you’ll gain practical tools, fresh insight, and renewed clarity for your journey ahead.

Josie & Alex have combined practice experience of 75+ years!

DAILY RHYTHM

  • Your day begins quietly with led meditation practice, followed by Yoga.

  • After a scrumptious brunch together, the afternoons are free. You might take a dip in your pool, nap, hike, adventure on an e-bike, journal, read, receive massage, get to know your fellow retreaters, or just be.

  • We meet again in the late afternoon for Yoga, the session ends with meditation.

  • Your delicious dinner is served on the terrace of the main house.

FINCA EL MORO - where the world is quiet.

The perfect blend of tranquility and hospitality, this family-run retreat is a warm, welcoming environment set in a secluded landscape; ideal if you’re looking to unwind and reconnect with yourSelf.

Practice happens in the outdoor Shala, built on the centuries old threshing circle with wood from the farm & nestled amongst the trees.

From the fabulous organic vegetarian food - mostly grown on the farm - to a massage in the old shepherd’s hut, a stroll with Violetta the ‘charismatic’ donkey, or a late evening stargazing float in your pool, Finca El Moro is deeply healing.

WHERE YOU’LL STAY

One of three beautiful, traditional stone cottages awaits you at El Moro.

Your cottage has its own swimming pool, your bedroom is ensuite, there’s a fully functioning kitchen, indoor sitting room and outside patio.

Josie has been coming here for 20 years because this is a magical place!
