Europe · 7 days · From USD 1580
This 7-day private retreat is designed for women who have been carrying too much for too long—those who notice tension in their bodies when they want to speak, who find themselves constantly second-guessing, people-pleasing, or living slightly on the brakes. If you recognize yourself in these patterns, this retreat offers a gentle yet profound pathway back to yourself.
At the heart of this experience is the MAMA methodology (Map, Anchor, Move, Align), a soul-led somatic pathway created by your guide Pingel Braat. Through this four-pillar approach, you'll learn to map your nervous system in the present moment, anchor safely in your body, move from your body's innate wisdom, and align your inner compass with vitality, joy, and self-trust. This isn't about fixing what's broken—it's about remembering what was always there.
Each day unfolds at your own pace, beginning with revitalizing NIA Move to Heal sessions that blend yoga, dance, martial arts, and somatic movement into a joyful, sensory-rich practice. Organic Intelligence® coaching sessions help your nervous system restore balance and resilience, while Feldenkrais bodywork releases limiting patterns and teaches your brain new, effortless ways of moving. Creative expression sessions invite play, voice dialogue, and intuitive exploration.
The setting itself becomes part of your healing journey. Jardín de Luz (Garden of Light) sits amidst peaceful groves with views of the Sierra Nevada mountains, offering an outdoor wooden dance deck, a refreshing pool, and countless quiet corners for reflection. The nearby village of Lanjarón provides connection to the simple, honest Alpujarra way of life, while pristine mountain air and ancient walking trails invite gentle exploration.
This retreat recognizes that your nervous system doesn't need more pressure—it needs less. By creating the conditions for safety, nourishment, and attuned presence, your system can finally soften from protection mode into ease, allowing perception itself to shift. When your body changes, everything changes from within.
Whether you're recovering from burnout, navigating a life transition, or simply longing to feel more alive and at home in your skin, this retreat meets you exactly where you are. No prior movement experience is required—just a willingness to dance, explore, and play your way back to your Inner Sparkle.
