Details of this retreat

Join us for an unforgettable week in the Sahara desert in Morocco, with daily embodiment sessions, dance, meditation, and time for silence. You'll spend the first days in a traditional desert palace, a Riad built by a nomad family, right at the footsteps of the dunes. Unplug and unwind, allow the silence of the desert to remind you of your essence.

Enjoy delicious breakfast buffets and home-cooked dinner, relax by the pool, or wonder over the dunes just behind the Riad. There nothing to do and yet there is a quite a few things to do :).

For 2 days we'll also venture out into the Sahara and stay in nomad tents run by some lovely Berbers. Here, you can be mesmerized by millions of stars at night, spend time around the camp fire wiht storytelling and music, climb the big dune, or simply ~ be. For half a day we'll practice silence, and phones stay in the bags during those two day to truly disconnect to reconnect.

On our way back we'll visit a village with traditional African healing music, pass by a site where you can still find fossils, and check out a big Souk with lots of carpets, home decor, jewelry, and more.

It's a beautiful retreat for introspection to simply process, be, and enjoy. Yet also a cultural immersion to learn mora about the ancient nomads, the desert, and the traditional way of life. The perfect place to reconnect to your Soul and the Soul of the earth ~ which is often a magical experience, different for everyone.

We've been coming here since 2013 and it's always unique.
