Location
This retreat will take place at the Axarquia region - situated in the eastern part of the province of Málaga. Competa is an inland village in the Axarquia, well-known for the Andalusian legacy of Muslim rule. The location is a privileged tourist destination surrounded by olive groves, almond trees, and a 4000-hectare wildlife reserve in Sierra Almijara, just 15 to 20 kilometres from the main tourist attractions of the Costa del Sol, including the beaches of Torre del Mar, the famous caves of Nerja, and within striking distance of Granada, Sierra Nevada, and other places of interest.
Throughout the retreat, you will be focusing on different guided meditations every day in the morning and in the evening to teach your mind to relax and focus on silence within. The aim is to help you return with a more positive and happy mindset. This retreat will focus on the practice of yoga and meditation as well as on the teachings of Vegan cooking. Movement and stillness, stretching and opening, breathing and awareness, and rhythm and flow are essential elements of both yoga, meditation, and Thai massage.
