In a magical place, the Cabo de Gata Natural Park<\/strong>, we will stay at Casa Rural Mdina<\/a>: a Mediterranean oasis<\/strong>, full of palm trees, cacti, and hidden corners designed to relax and enjoy. <\/p>\n

April is the natural time for expansion and movement. We leave behind the stillness of winter to make way for vitality and light. But we remember that for a tree to sustain its flowering branches, it needs deep and stable roots. <\/p>\n

In this retreat, we will work on your Muladhara Chakra<\/strong> (Root Chakra) to channel all the energy of spring. We will transform any remaining lethargy into fuel for your security and prosperity. <\/p>\n

We will combine fluid Hatha Yoga<\/strong> practices with more static sessions focused on alignment and body awareness. We will also practice restorative Yoga and Pranayama. We will delve into the depth of Yoga Nidra<\/strong> to root ourselves in the earth and, from there, propel ourselves with strength into this new life cycle.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner el_class=”reverse-mobile”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Through Hatha Yoga practices, we will work to:<\/b><\/h4>\n

Activate internal fire:<\/b> generate heat, improve circulation, and combat the rigidity and lethargy associated with the winter cold.<\/p>\n

Create grounding:<\/b> we will use standing poses (grounding asanas) to integrate the strength and stability of the earth into our body and anchor ourselves in the present.<\/p>\n

Strengthen the immune system<\/b>: with a practice of poses that stimulate organs like the thymus, spleen, and bone marrow so that your defenses work optimally.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Stabilize the mind and connect with our center.<\/strong><\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”1682″ img_size=”full” css=””][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner el_class=”reverse-mobile”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

In the Yoga Nidra (conscious sleep) sessions:<\/b><\/h4>\n

We will immerse ourselves in conscious sleep<\/strong> to explore ourselves in the earth element and the root chakra.<\/p>\n

During the Yoga Nidra sessions<\/strong>, you stay in a state of “conscious sleep”<\/b>, on the border between wakefulness and sleep. From this space, you learn to observe your internal experiences (sensations, emotions, thoughts, feelings) with an attitude of detachment. <\/p>\n

Sliding into this conscious sleep, we experience the different <\/span>envelopes of our being, and we can set intentions for what we long for. <\/b> <\/p>\n

We explore a receptive, serene, and equanimous state <\/b>for the observation of sensations and <\/span>emotional and mental landscapes. Discovering ourselves accepting and welcoming everything that arrives. <\/p>\n

The practice of Yoga Nidra helps to release tensions at a physical, emotional, and mental level.<\/strong> It helps to combat insomnia<\/strong> and promote a smoother transition to sleep.<\/p>\n

Hatha Yoga practice at the retreat<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Practices will take place in a large room with views<\/strong> or in one of the outdoor pergolas,<\/strong> weather permitting. We will have all kinds of yoga props<\/strong> at our disposal; chairs, bolsters, blocks, blankets, straps… <\/p>\n

After the active practices, we will finish with restorative asanas <\/b>using supports or props that help us with body relaxation and regeneration<\/b>.<\/p>\n

In the afternoons, the practices will have a more static emphasis<\/b>, based on spinal alignment and using support props to facilitate the poses, with the goal of improving body awareness and internalization through staying in them. We will also learn a sequence of poses focused on strengthening the immune system<\/b>. <\/p>\n

We will complement this with restorative Yoga, relaxation, <\/span>pranayama <\/b>(breathing exercises), meditation, and several <\/span>Yoga Nidra sessions<\/b>. Constant observation, active perception “feeling”, and attention will immerse us in a climate of concentration and discernment. <\/p>\n

The practice will be adapted to all levels<\/b>; we can follow our own individual process, listen to it without pressure, and discover our limitations to be able to get close to and empathize with them. This will help us find a kind organicity in our practice where body parts, flows, and energies connect and cooperate with each other.<\/p>\n

<\/h4>\n

<\/h4>\n

 <\/p>\n

But we won’t just practice Yoga<\/h4>\n

We will have the opportunity to walk a path along the cliff coast<\/b> that will connect us with the beauty of this volcanic and wild nature. We can stroll along its natural beaches<\/b>. And if the weather allows and we feel like it, maybe we can take a dip at the beach and\/or in the pool <\/b>since the mild temperatures of Almer\u00eda can make swimming appealing even in winter. <\/p>\n

The house<\/strong><\/h3>\n

We are doing this retreat in collaboration with Casa Rural Mdina<\/a><\/u><\/strong> on the outskirts of the village of Fern\u00e1n P\u00e9rez within the Cabo de Gata N\u00edjar Natural Park<\/strong>. Less than 15 min by car from beaches and coves<\/strong> but away from the hustle and bustle of tourism. <\/p>\n

Mdina is a walled Mediterranean country house<\/b> and inside it looks like a hidden <\/span>oasis<\/b> with its gardens full of corners; with its saltwater pool open<\/b> all year round, with its palm trees, trees, cacti, and plants of all varieties.<\/p>\n

There are pergolas, benches, sun loungers, terraces at different heights, and garden furniture that will make you want to spend time in the outdoor spaces to immerse yourself in an atmosphere of tranquility and well-being<\/b>.<\/p>\n

John and Susana are the hosts of the house<\/strong>. John will cook delicious, healthy, and natural food<\/b> and both will take care of every detail. With their hospitality and spontaneity, they will make you feel at home. <\/p>\n
