Come and join us on this deeply relaxing and restorative health retreat. It will take place at our beautiful Casa Santosha retreat space in sunny Andalucia, Spain. The retreat will be a combination of yogic and ayurvedic practices to help cleanse and rejuvenate your whole being. 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.
​
If you are new to Ayurveda, which is a sister science of Yoga and an ancient healing system from India, you can find out more information from this link on my Yoga website in Bromley - About Ayurveda | yoga-studio-bromley (yogabromley.co.uk).
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

​
Advice will be given a few weeks before the retreat to help prepare, as well as advice for when you leave to help continue with the good habits and good energy you have generated.
​
The retreat and consultations will be personally guided by Emma who is an Ayurvedic health consultant and yoga/meditation teacher with many years of experience. Find out more about Emma here.
