Spring is a season of renewal and new beginnings.
It's the perfect time to pause, reflect and let go, taking time for yourself and creating space for new growth and opportunites.
Allow yourself these moments to relax and reset as we spend the weekend nourishing mind, body and soul on this 3 day Yoga and Wellness Retreat on the magical Mount Rigi!
With it's famous mineral baths and breathtaking views, the Rigi Kaltbad is the ideal setting to unwind and recharge as we spend 3 days nourishing mind, body and soul.
Just the right balance of yoga and free time will allow you to enjoy the mineral baths and spa, hike one of the many trails or simply sit back and enjoy the breathtaking views.
3 days and 2 nights is a perfect amount of time to reap the benefits of a retreat without needing to take more than one extra day off work.
Our retreat is held at the wonderful Rigi Kaltbad Hotel.
For over 500 years people travelled here to bathe in the water of Mount Rigi. Nowadays, it's as popular as ever but the cold water baths have been replaced by warm mineral pools and incredible architecture, incorporating the stunning views of the surrounding mountains.
3 days full use of the Rigi Kaltbad and Spa is included in the retreat price!
This long weekend retreat will leave you feeling re-energised, refreshed and ready to Spring forward into Spring!
I look forward to meeting you here!
