Back 
TO Basics

I've chosen Monestevole for the third time now, as my intention with this retreat is to get back to basics AND this place so delivers on that! 

Back to the basics of movement and breath within a challenging and relaxing yoga practice. Back to the basics of clean living, with good food and wine that is locally sourced and SO exceptionally Italian! Back to the basics of nature, on a farm, under blue skies, among loads of greenery, hills to trek on and open air to breathe. Back to the basics of joyful connection, as you commune with likeminded people (sangha) where you can share stories, laugh, rest up, relax and let go!

Ciao for now,
​Simonee

RETREAT 
ITINERARY

  • Wake up to silent mornings! Reflect in peace with your coffee or tea before going to the practice room for a guided meditation and a relaxing yoga practice.

  • Enjoy healthy, homemade options of  locally sourced food and beverage alongside your sangha that'll energize you for your day. The porridge and fresh ginger/watermelon juice is sublime!

  • There's so much to do or so much not to do. Explore the grounds with others or hang solo. Feed the animals, help on the farm, walk, hike, run or be still! Contemplate and write in your journal or relax in a hammock as you read. ​

  • Lunch is highlight at Monestevole! Retreaters choose from a  big spread and eat alongside the farmers who work the Monestevole grounds. Vino is always available.

  • ​Make yourself at home with lazy afternoons! Book a massage, visit the animals, hang by the pool, wander or join in on one of the planned activities.  It's your adventure! 

  • Late afternoon practice caps off every day. A challenging and fun yoga practice sometimes set to music, perhaps with a dose of yin to set you up for a cosy evening!​

  • Monestevole dinners are epic! Whether outside over candlelight or inside the 15th century hamlet,  we eat well, drink well, laugh and connect a ton.

  • Night cap, hammock, evening walk, board games or bonfires! Evenings at Monestevole are relaxing, fun, cozy and super special. Lifelong friendships have been made!
