After the success of our 2022 Ibiza Retreat, we are announcing our April 2023 collaboration with a fellow nature lover and energy worker; Retreat Remedies where we will take you on a powerful and transformational journey from Root to Rise. We will work with the chakra system to understand and balance your energetic centres whilst tapping in to your own personal power and immersing in yoga, sound and reiki sessions along with the Wim Hof breathing method and cacao ceremony allowing you to discover, experience and grow whilst absorbing the powerful energy of Ibiza and have new knowledge and tools to continue your journey back at home.

Expect tea meditation, qigong movement, yin yoga, singing bowl therapy, sound baths, reiki drumming, tea meditation, a shamanic drumming and breathwork experience, cacao ceremony, delicious nutritious vegetarian food (Vegan/GF/DF), a stunning villa, excursions and lots of opportunity to rest or explore the island with some awesome beings :-)

We LOVE Ibiza and can not wait to share the magic with you!

Some feedback from our last retreat!

‘There is not enough stars to rate, Natalie and Jim deserve all the stars in the world! They are magicians,trully inspiring people! They create the most beautiful retreats: from food to setting everything is perfect. This is my second retreat with them and I seriously couldn't have asked for more! Until we meet again!’

‘The best yoga retreat I’ve ever been on.
So much more than the normal yoga retreat. Reiki Drumming. Win Hof breath work, Tea remedies and meditation, sightseeing, amazing food.’

‘It’s difficult to put this experience into words… Natalie and James held space for us, healed us, laughed with us and danced with us. Nikki and Katherine nurtured us- body and spirit. It was absolutely unforgettable. If you’ve ever thought about going on a yoga retreat, this is the one!’

‘These guys are just amazing. Not only are the knowledgeable and inspiring, they are also fun, caring and humble. I loved every bit of our week retreat. The schedule was well thought out, the accommodation was amazing and don’t even get me started on the food… thank you again to all the involved organizers. I know I will be following these guys around the globe. 🙏’

TEA | YIN YOGA | QIGONG

Tea Meditation Katherine is a TCM practitioner as well as a remedy queen and will offer a daily tea meditation using herbs that support our journey through the Chakras as well as preparing nourishing meals to support the essence of the energetic centres

Yin Yoga  is a slow and soft style of yoga which allows you to stress and nourish the deeper connective tissues such as ligaments, bones and joints. These sessions will be accompanied by our Nepalese singing bowls so that the sound and vibrations will enter your body at a cellular level to calm your body and mind, promote healing and move Qi aiming to bring balance physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually.

QiGong Yin Yoga will be more of a movement practice adopting the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and cultivation Qi flow and supports optimal health.

SOUND HEALING | REIKI

Singing Bowls and Gongs helps the body generate a positive flow of energy and offers vibrations on a cellular level into the body which stimulates the blood vessels, lymph, nerves, veins and muscles to open up blockages and loosening tension in the body, relaxing the body and releasing pain. They can helps with stress, depression, insomnia, menstrual pain, ear problems, sinusitis etc and offer a sense of peace and calm.

Reiki is the Japanese word for universal life force. By channelling energy from the universe (generally through the hands), It can be a deep relaxation technique that reduces stress and promotes healing. Reiki re-activates the body’s natural energy system, bringing you back into balance on every level, physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. Reiki Drumming for healing and meditation is an ancient practice and goes back thousands of years, the power of sound over the body and spirit is well known in tribal cultures.

CACAO | BREATH

Wim Hof Method Breathwork During your retreat you will experience various breathwork sessions from James, a certified WHM Instructor and feel how this breathwork can tap into your deepest potential, and heal modern day issues.

Ceremonial Grade Cacao has been used for centuries by the indigenous as a plant medicine for nutritional and healing purposes. Nutritionally, ceremonial grade cacao has 20 times more disease fighting antioxidants than blueberries and offers magnesium, riboflavin along with essential fatty acids making it a huge help to lower cholesterol, improve heart function and reduce the risk of cancer. It is also a mood enhancer through increasing dopamine and serotonin whilst also stimulating endorphins amongst other benefits which we will experience together in ceremony.

The Villa is in Santa Gertrudis de Fruitera region located approx 12km north of Ibiza town. It is located in the middle of the island surrounded by rich countryside and fruit trees, (hence the name).

The nearby small traditional village has been influenced by modernity and art in a positive way. You will find art galleries, funky clothes shops and artisan goods, whilst the traditional heart of the village remains in the pedestrianised plaza which has cafes and restaurants with hams hanging from the ceiling. This town was one of the original places where hippies, artists and musicians gathered in the 1960's. Possibly the best thing to do in Santa Gertrudis is to shop!

Can Rosa is stunning and located the Santa Gertrudis area. It is situated in the agricultural part of the island so very quiet, lovely walks and stunning views across the island. I have stayed here before on a teacher training event and the villa holds some wonderful memories which I am sure will hold for you too. The Finca was built more than 150 years ago and was fully renovated recently keeping the typical "ibicenco" style. The main Villa has 6 double bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a big kitchen, a separate TV room, a living room with a chimney and separate sitting corners. There are plenty outdoor places to sit and enjoy the sun, a swimming pool, different terraces with amazing views, ideal at sunrise and moonrise. There is an indoor shala and outside wooden deck to practice yoga and offer our sound and reiki sessions.

ADVANCED YIN YOGA | REIKI | SINGING BOWL THERAPY | CACAO MEDICINE CARRIER

NATALIE BRADSHAW

Ancient Wisdom has changed my life. For years I suffered with Adrenal Fatigue and an Autoimmune Disease, that combined with being a workaholic in the corporate world often meant choosing to work 13-hour days and using all my energy up at work that often meant that I had nothing left for me, let alone time for my family or friends. After becoming dependent on steroid injections, western medication and coffee just to get through the day I decided to come back to Yoga and explore a more holistic lifestyle. Rather than continue to book holidays in a desperate attempt to recharge, I started to go on Healing retreats which inspired me to train to become a Yoga teacher and this soon became a huge turning point in my life because it gave me the space to rest, spend time with like minded people and also learn tools that I needed to make changes in my life. Very quickly I found that a more regular practice offered me much more than the physical benefits and as I continued to dig deeper, not only did I become stronger and more mobile in my body but I had reduced pain, raised energy levels, improved mental health and my whole perspective significantly changed. I said goodbye to my corporate life and set out on a new path find a solution other than a lifetime on western medication and guess what - I haven't taken western medication for over 5 years and have managed to keep my autoimmune issues at bay (unless I fall into old habits!) Even now with over 1000 study hours with many global master teachers and reading hundreds of books, I continue to search for and experience alternative ways to live at optimal health in this modern world. Going deeper into the layers is my passion, specifically in conjunction with traditional Chinese medicine, organ health, the energetic body and breath work. Sound and Reiki has also been a huge influence in my healing path which is why James (my husband) and I love to work together and create healing and transformational experiences which we can offer on a private basis, group classes, workshops or retreats.

JAMES BRADSHAW

Working in the fire and rescue service was my dream job and after making the difficult decision to leave after 12 years service I lost my way a little.

I missed helping other people and felt something was missing. I proceeded to spend another 12 years building up my own renovations and maintenance company and whilst really enjoying meeting new people and the practical side of working with my hands and being creative I still felt I had more to offer.

I started going to yoga classes to help with a back injury and saw that a Reiki Level 1 course was happening so I signed up. It was very powerful and I had a real connection with the energy. I found it very calming and I very quickly received feedback on how I had helped others with personal issues or physical ailments. I then studied for and completed Reiki 2, further progressing to Reiki Drumming and Reiki Mastership. I am dedicated to learning safe ways to offer sound healing and unique techniques that support healing and transformation in myself and students. I am proud to have learned Singing Bowl Therapy in Nepal by Grand Master Shree Krishna Shahi and the Gong from world renowned Shiela Whittaker - one of the best gong practitioners in the world.

Since 2020 i’ve been working with and studying the Wim Hof Method to support me and my family with cancer recovery which took me on a powerful and transformational journey to become a wim hof method instructor.

Working with these tools is fascinating and I love seeing the impact it can have on peoples lives. I am looking forward to sharing our offerings with you.
