Hayley is an Ayurvedic Practitioner and Yoga Teacher, known for her creative sequencing and inclusive classes for all levels of experience. Hayley’s classes are playful, honest, and challenging in a way that makes you stronger and more flexible, both on and off the mat. Interweaving Ayurveda, the wisdom of life, into her teachings allows her students to feel more in harmony with themselves and nature. Hayley shares the wisdom of Ayurveda in an uncomplicated and accessible way, encouraging people to move away from the 'pill for every ill' mentality and to a more natural and holistic approach to health.
Louise is a Metaphysical Counsellor and Yoga Teacher. Seeing the magic in both philosophies, she is keen to share what she has found to be an accessible and life-changing approach to ‘stuckness’ of all types. Louise’s training allows her to counsel one to one, but also to facilitate group teachings, opening up your Self Awareness, connecting to your intuition, encouraging a curiosity, which in turn allows us to shed old unhelpful beliefs, release repeating patterns and find ease in our thinking. Enhancing the ability to respond, as opposed to reacting to people, situations... even ourselves! Her Yoga teaching is a continuation of this, moving into postures gently, being willing to ‘find’ the posture for yourself, create the space and giving longer holds to allow the stillness to enter. Allowing the body and mind to be what it is, where it is, right now, in this moment. We grow from this place of acceptance and allowing, physically and mentally.

Day 1 · October 27, 2024
Slip through the trees and arrive in peaceful Albuñuelas
Welcome to Spain! For the next six days, you’ll be calling the village of Albuñuelas your home. A small community flanked by the Spanish Sierra Nevada mountains, it’s the perfect space to unplug and reconnect with yourself. Once you’re checked into the accommodation, you’ll have time to relax and settle, before our Opening circle, for the chance to feel into the synchronicity of the group. Incorporating guided meditation, it’s the perfect way to kick off our time together, ground the space before we head to dinner. After which it will be time to retire to our rooms, rested and ready for Day 2.
Day 2 · October 28, 2024
Encourage growth and introspection with movement, meditation, and more
Our first morning in Spain has arrived, and it couldn’t be more inviting. To help us enter the day with presence and kindness, we’ll begin with a gentle vinyasa yoga class. A series of movements will give you energy and awaken your mind, and meditation and pranayama breathwork will lend you clarity. The morning continues with your first part of the workshop; an Introduction to Ayurveda, where Hayley will introduce you to this holistic philosophy that can help you reinvent your approach to personal health. Then enjoy a late lunch, after which you will have free time that you can use however you’d like. Finally, another calming and grounding Yoga class and dinner will close out the day.
Day 3 · October 29, 2024
Find harmony with yourself and your surroundings
Good morning! We rise for our gentle vinyasa yoga class, starting the day off in a calm headspace. The schedule for today will continue like yesterday’s with free time in between ayurveda and yoga. There are plenty of ways to utilize this time here; simply listen to yourself to find what will serve you. Are you looking for a challenge? Move deeper into your practice on your own. Time to journal? Is community what you seek? Bond with your fellow travelers in this beautiful environment. Do you need rest? Perhaps a few simple hours by the pool is what you need.
Day 4 · October 30, 2024
Enter another day of wellness with curiosity
It is day 4 of our retreat, and our wellness journey continues. Take your time during our morning yoga and meditation session, moving thoughtfully into each position and allowing your body to feel what it needs to feel. Today's workshop is your Introduction to Metaphysics where you are invited to hear new perspectives around Life and our approach to it. Be ready to dive into some Self Enquiry with compassion and kindness, learning how to question your thinking, healing your inner dialogue along the way. Begin to allow your curiosity and openess to change grow. You are in the rhythm of things now, so trust yourself, your teachers, and your surroundings.
Day 5 · October 31, 2024
Enjoy one final full day dedicated to your progress
The sun rises on our final full day together. Greet it with intention: by acknowledging that our time together is limited, you will be able to make the most out of our sessions. Our second part of the Metaphysics workshop will help you to understand with more clarity; What is it that you want to work on most? What are the sensations that you want to feel today? With these questions in mind, aim for powerful and lasting personal progress. Since we head home tomorrow, begin thinking about the ways you can transition from this retreat back into your home life with as much grace as possible. This retreat ending only creates a new beginning for you! When we come together in the evening for our last group dinner, celebrate the progress you’ve made... and the continued progress you undoubtedly will make in the future.
Day 6 · November 1, 2024
Thank Spain for the experience as you return home
Our final day begins with breakfast and our Closing Circle, a chance to reflect and resonate with the tools you can take back out into your everyday. After a final meditation: it’s time to go home with a little more ease and space in Mind, Body & Spirit! A transfer to the airport will mark the end of our time together. Thanks so much for joining us, and be well……with your new perspectives embodied, look for the subtle shifts. They will be there.
