In March 2026 we will return to the incredibly beautiful Les Jardins De Villa Maroc for Back to Garden, a deeply healing retreat.

This programme is designed to bring you “Back to the Garden” of your soul, to cultivate the mind, body and soul connection and regulate the nervous system so we can truly BE the BEINGS we need to be for ourselves and each other in these times.

I believe, and moreover, I witness that more than ever before we absolutely need to return home to ourselves, to feel safe, to be able to relax and to be able to step into the fullness of our own self healing.

This is where the magic is, when we can regulate and connect BACK IN

This is a MULTI LEVEL JOURNEY with deep focus on the bio plasticity, which means focusing on balancing the hormones, balancing the cortisone and the adrenalin to regulate the nervous system so we flow into spring with renewed energy and power.

On a physical level we will focus on the somatic release of trapped energy in the body, we will shake a lot, we will stretch a lot and we will open up the physical vessel a lot.

On a mental level we will focus on the release of anxiety and stress in the field, creating serotonin, releasing endorphins, flooding the system with dopamine and creating a lot of anandamide which is the bliss molecule.

 On a spiritual level we will focus on connecting to the divine inside and the return to the heart.

 On a quantum level we will open up an intentional quantum field of healing.

Each day will begin with a Shamanic Kundalini Yoga session with gong relaxation, we will have a deeper dive into the healing experience with workshops late each morning and our evenings will be soft and soothing with a weave of gentle Shamanic Kundalini Yoga, Yoga Nidra, Breathwork and Meditation. Afternoons are free for exploration, relaxation by the pool and healing treatments.

We will reside at the utterly exquisite Les Jardins De Villa Maroc, an exceptional property 10 miles outside of Essaouria in the Swiri countryside which is known for its peaceful and relaxing atmosphere.

 And we will live in fabulous Eco Domes! These incredibly stylish domes are amazing and a unique and innovative take on hospitality. Each Ecodome gives such a sense of serenity and peacefulness.

The domes are based on a sustainable architecture model, built from local materials, only using what can be found in the region of Essaouira..

 The food offering is also amazing here, made with love with local and organic Moroccan ingredients. We will dine by the pool for brunch and our afternoon snack and by the fire for dinner each night.

We have a wonderful opportunity to connect with the deep force of nature there, as we practice in a gorgeous yoga shala with full views out to the fields, filled with Argan and Thuja trees which characterise the landscape there.

There is also a world to explore here … Essaouira is nestled on Morocco’s Atlantic coast, a charming port city with a rich history and relaxed vibe. It feels like another world here, it really does.

It’s 18th-century seafront ramparts, known as the Skala de la Kasbah, speak to its past as a fortified town. These ramparts offer stunning ocean views and the beach is enormous with huge skies and the wind is a total balm for the soul.

This will be a special Soul Adventure and I very much looking forward to sharing the magic of this journey and this place with you…

 If this is speaking to your soul, it would be an honour and a pleasure to share these days with you.
