What would you get from going on a retreat?

The most important thing you will get from going on a retreat is time to connect and get back in touch with yourself to restore your inner peace and calm. A retreat is a way of taking time out and assessing life decisions that enables you to bring clarity to the direction in your life and any challenges and opportunities that lay ahead.

If you are looking for rest and a tranquil scene, then this retreat will be perfect for you. The retreat includes Pilates and meditation daily alongside some quality time relaxing and enjoying some soulful rest.My lovely yoga friend Katie and I will put together a gentle timetable that includes daily Pilates, guided meditations, rest, relaxation, and of course reading and a bit of sunbathing
The retreat will be an opportunity to detox from life’s busyness and allow you to relax and enjoy some great healthy food and calming Pilates exercise.

Where does this retreat take place?

This Andalucian Sanctuary, El Molino del Conde, is situated in the heart of Spain. Andalucia is the most southern region of Spain and it is world-famous for its amazing climate, flamenco, tapas, fiestas, beaches and diverse geography.

The retreat is in a beautiful white Andalucía mill which is a wonderful place and a great location to explore Andalucia. A walk up the valley between the olive groves and you will be able to buy fresh vegetables from the local market in Villanueva de Tapia and enjoy tapas and fino in one of the bars – fino is the local dry sherry.

On the other side of the lake from El Molino del Conde is the white-washed hilltop village of Iznajar which looks across the 30km long Lake Iznajar, the largest lake in Andalucia. At the top of the village lie the remains of an 8th century Moorish Castle reached through a labyrinth of narrow streets. This is a real non-tourist village, with a true Spanish character.

Lying 20 minutes from El Molino is the small town of Archidona with its 18th century octagonal plaza and its beautiful hilltop monastery. You can book your 7 day Andalucia Sanctuary retreat click here

What is the villa like that you stay in?

El Molino del Conde is a beautiful big white Andalucian mill house which is set in large secluded gardens, with a private swimming pool, surrounded by hills and olive groves near the lovely Lake Iznájar. The villas have been lovingly restored to retain all the character of the big old mill house. There are high beamed ceilings, 10 comfortable bedrooms and 7 bathrooms.

There is excellent access to the vibrant cities of southern Spain – Granada, Seville, Córdoba, Ronda and Málaga.

What food will you enjoy?

The food on the retreat is lovingly prepared using the freshest local ingredients. Katie prepares a wide variety of healthy nutritious, vegetarian meals. Ensuring that the meals are well-balanced with a great variety.

The meals are created to get the right balance of macros including enough protein from lots of different types of foods including pulses like quinoa. The meals combine cereals and legumes as ‘complementary’ proteins for example beans and rice or houmous and bread which will provide a biologically ‘complete’ protein.

This thoughtful and creative planning ensures that each meal is delicious as well as incredibly healthy.

The important question…how hot is it?

Similar to the majority of Spain in April; Andalucia has pleasant temperatures with beautiful blue skies. The temperature begins to steadily increase during April reaching 20 ºC on occasions and peaking at an average of 21.8 ºC. However light winds or breezes feeding in throughout the day will make the days feel cooler.

Spring and early summer is the best time of the year to travel to Spain. It’s a period of mild temperatures across the area and with spring comes an abundance of nature and freshness.

How will you feel after the retreat?

If you find sitting quietly isn’t possible, then after this retreat, you will know that mindfulness and stillness can be approached in a different route. A way of being that becomes part of your day. It is as simple as becoming aware of yourself and I know from experience that once you understand something you can never ‘unlearn’ it.

You will come away from this retreat with new skills to approach life’s ups and downs. Your challenges will be viewed from a different perspective
