Y O G A & A Y U R V E D A
During this retreat you will get a wonderful blend of yoga practices combined with the knowledge & beauty of Ayurveda, they complement each other perfectly.
Y O G A
We practice yoga to control the mind, so it does not control us. We calm the 'vrittis' (thought waves) to bring us clarity, awareness, flexibility & strength in the body and mind.
A Y U R V E D A
Ayurveda is a holistic healing system that's been practiced for over 5000 years (origins in India). It developed through the observation of what all life is created from, the 5 ELEMENTS.
Ayurveda re-awakens the deep knowing that you are true nature.
Ayurveda teaches us to live a healthy, happy life, to fully enjoy it by creating awareness around our diet, lifestyle, work and sleep.
We will have plenty of time to dive into this wisdom so that we can return to our intended authentic selves through the magical combination of yoga, ayurveda, pranayama & food for the soul.

6 days at retreat centre Suryalila:
Suryalila is a sacred place nestled in a large open valley in the foothills of the Sierra de Grazalema. A unique place to be: every day you will see the sun rising and setting.
This place is an old renovated olive farm surrounded by orange & lemon trees. It has a permaculture with loads of organic vegetables and fruits. It has chickens (for the fresh eggs) and several other animals walking around: think alpacas!
It feels serene, spacious and full of love. The interior is well-designed and has handpicked items collected from Bali, India & Marocco.
Suryalila has three Yoga halls.
+ The Om Dome is the most impressive yoga hall in Europe
+ The wooden Ganesha Yoga Shala
+ The Eco building Moon Shala
Spa.
Suryalila has a beautiful salt water pool and a self built sauna.
It will be around 18 degrees, a perfect temperature for a cool dip in the pool and to get some heat in the sauna.
