Rest, Release, Restore Retreat with Josie and Heleen


  • Finca El Moro Fuenteheridos, Andalusia Spain (map)

A gentle yet deep retreat in the high hills of Southern Spain. Our intention for the week is your deep rejuvenation. Release tensions of mind and body and relax back into your natural state of steady ease.

This week is for you if you’re longing for peace and quiet in the depths of nature to rest, relax, release and restore.

This isn’t for you if you’re craving high-speed asana practice and daily excursions!

Our setting is a beautiful Andalusian Finca (farm) with it’s horses, olive trees, Certified Organic fruit and vegetable gardens, Finca El Moro is a magical place. Nothing about our week will be rushed. The idea is to awaken back to yourSelf with a restored and relaxed sense of balance.

Our quiet mornings begin with Hatha Yoga: asana, pranayama (breathing practice) and meditation.

Following delicious sustenance at the main house, it’s time for a siesta, a dip in one of the 3 pools, journalling, reading, a gentle walk, or simply being. Your cottage kitchen will always have fruits, tea and coffee to hand.

Each peaceful afternoon our practice is intended to be deeply relaxing; Restorative, Yin and Yoga Nidra are all on the menu.

Dinner is served on the Finca’s terrace. The delicious vegetarian food is home grown in the farm’s Certified Organic gardens and orchards. Water is from the farm’s own pure water source.

There are optional extras; massage, horse riding and the farm shop, selling home made and local delights to take home.

The cottages are all quite independent. Each with it’s own pool they are not visible from one another but within a few minutes walk of the beautiful hill-side open-air shala, the main house and each other. You will not feel over-crowded here.

€875 includes all the Yoga, 7 nights accommodation in a gorgeous cottage, delicious, vibrant, vegetarian, home grown food from the farm’s Certified Organic vegetable gardens, group transfer from/to Seville.

€575 includes all the Yoga, 7 nights glamping in a bell tent (with twin beds), delicious, vibrant, vegetarian, home grown food from the farm’s Certified Organic vegetable gardens, group transfer from/to Seville.
