6 Day Embrace Yourself in Nature with Horses, Coaching, Yoga and Mindfulness in Southern Spain
Grazalema, 116 10 Cadiz, Spain
Horse Riding and Wellness Retreat in Spain
Disconnect. Reconnect with yourself and nature. Charge your batteries. Learn more about yourself together with horses and enjoy the beautiful natural park from the horseback. Make sure that instead of being a victim of what is going on in the world, you can actively and positively be a part of it - a co-creator. Enjoy the journey. It is much easier than you think to let go of an old pattern and make space for more productive thinking and acting. Discover limiting beliefs or patterns, practice self-love. You don't need a special body for yoga; yoga is created to be beneficial for all bodies. Embrace who you are and how you look. Coaching in a “guiding to find your own insights” way, is always available. It could be like chats at the dinner table or more serious sessions.The maximum number of guests is 6 so tuition will be in a very small group. You can also book it totaly private, only for you. Mia Isacsson and her team will make sure you get the best out of your stay.

Horse riding - Nano or Raul, the Fincas experienced guides, will take you out on amazing rides in the breath taking landscape and beautiful nature of Grazalema Park. The horses are calm and used to carry riders on every level around safely.
Rider Weight Limit: 176 pounds / 80 kilograms.
Peter Hess® Sound Massage
The session typically starts with the client lying down comfortably on a massage table, fully clothed. Each session is tailor-made to suit the needs of the client. Tibetan singing bowls are placed on or around the body, often on specific energy centers or chakras, and played with a mallet. The resonant sounds and vibrations emitted by the singing bowls are thought to gently balance and harmonize the body’s energy, facilitating relaxation and a sense of inner calm. The vibrations and frequencies produced are said to penetrate deeply into the body, helping to release tension, reduce stress, and induce a meditative state.
Yoga and other exercises can wake up your physical body, create a nice feeling in your emotional body, balance your mind, set clear intentions, and tune in to your spiritual body.
It will be possible to fill your days with activities. The retreat, however, would like to encourage you to not get too busy but instead take some time to be on your own and reflect. This is a journey to Spain, but it could also be a journey towards yourself, a journey within.
The stable has all-around saddles. The bridles are single bridle.
Included excursions
Enjoy 6-8 hours of trail ride in the beautiful nature park. If you don't want to ride you will be offered something else instead.
