Over dit evenement
RECONNECT To yourself. To nature. To each other….
In the busyness of everyday life, it is easy to feel separate — from our bodies, our breath, from nature and sometimes even from ourselves. As we are digitally connected in these times - we find ourselves missing the depth of real connection to what is real and authentic in and around us.
This retreat is an invitation to slow down and remember that we are not separate. That we belong.
The Sanskrit word “Yoga” means “UNION”. Or to “join” …The union of body and mind through the sacred breath - that transforms our paths from suffering to freedom (Moksha).
Through yoga, meditation, breathwork and time in nature, we explore the many layers of connection — the relationship between body and breath, movement and stillness, inner and outer worlds.
We reconnect with the simple wisdom of the elements:
🌍 Earth — grounding and belonging
💧 Water — flow and letting go
🔥 Fire — transformation and vitality
🌬️ Air — breath, movement and freedom
✨ Space — presence, possibility and awareness
And through sharing this experience with others, we discover another dimension of yoga: connection through community.
A space to breathe.
A space to listen.
A space to soften.
A space to reconnect.
From separation to connection.
From doing to being.
From the outside world, back home to yourself.
Connect • Breathe • Belong!
Imagine waking up to golden Sicilian sunshine, moving your body with daily yoga and breathwork, exploring the countryside, enjoying restful days and fresh healthy food straight from the garden....All surrounded by breathtaking nature.
Our location for this magical retreat is called Zen Sicily, a family business that comes from the heart.
Their story begins with an old house, built in the XIX century in the middle of the Sicilian countryside. Healthy delicious food coming from their own vegetable garden cooked with love, cozy accomodations to relax and the most welcoming family ready to take care of any needs are what makes this place unique.
This venue features both indoor and outdoor yoga rooms (shalas), including all the yoga equipment that you need: mats, bolsters, blocks, blankets and more. Air conditioning and mosquito nets are also available on location.
Extra treatments such as massages can also be arranged separately.
Zen Sicily’s address is: Contrada Carcicera, 96017 Noto SR
The closest international airport is Catania airport.Transfer to & from location is available upon request.
However, if you prefer to rent a car and get there on your own, this is certainly possible.
Daily Yoga/ Meditation Programme during the retreat will be sent later on and depends on weather etc.
Seema & Elsy look forward to not just give you a lovely holiday, but gifting you with a deepened awareness of your true self, a warm, holistic experience that you can carry and remember forever in your heart!♥️
