An opportunity for a break! A time to relax, recharge and NOURISH THE BODY INSIDE AND OUT, in an environment that invites tranquility and introspection. When you move away from the routine, the people you know, the places where you usually go and the things you usually do, you give yourself the time and space to find your center, to feel who you truly are!

Allow the scents of earth awaken your senses … let the sounds of nature lull you in a deep peace … let fresh, colorful, raw foods, recreated with art and love, and the surrender of the body to the rejuvenating practice of yoga, conducted with the heart, be your sources of energy.

MENS SANA IN CORPORE SANO, a synergy between raw food and yoga experiences, lived in a magical and privileged place on the island, framed by mountains and sea …it is the return to balance between body, mind and spirit.

About RAW FOOD …

Why Raw Food? Quite simply because it is colorful, it is delicious, it is full of life and because it is a food that is in its natural state, which connects me with Mother Nature, the source of love that nourishes and heals.

“Let food be your medicine and medicine be your food.” Hippocrates

Raw food helps to purify the body and mind. By eating healthy, fresh and whole foods, the body naturally eliminates accumulated “litter”, making it lighter and receptive to new energies and vibrations.

Technically speaking, raw or living food is food that is not heated to over 45 degrees Celsius, thus retaining all of its nutritional value. It´s alkaline foods that are found in their natural state, such as fruits, vegetables, seeds and sprouts. Not being processed or refined, gluten-free, lactose-free, it’s packed with energy, enzymes, water, oxygen, antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients and more.

About YOGA …

Yoga invites us to be in the here and now, to talk to our body, our mind and our spirit in a conscious way so that we can know ourselves better. Being on our yoga mat is a privileged moment to take care of us, stop time, and to discover our being. Through the movement of Yoga postures we can release the physical and emotional blocks that are anchored in our body. It’s a cleansing, a liberation and a journey of deep discovery …

* No prior knowledge or experience of yoga and meditation is required.
