Day 1A Welcoming Embrace: Initiating the Path of Inner Growth

Upon landing at Ljubljana Slovenia Airport, you'll find yourself being warmly greeted by the vibrant energy of Slovenia, a gateway to the soul-nourishing retreat led by inspiring wellness coach Josephine McGrail. After a quick taxi ride you will arrived at the beautiful vila, where your transformational journey will unfold.

Upon arrival, you'll be embraced by the calm and earthly vibrations of the surrounding hills, designed to mirror the harmonic interplay of nature's elements. This magical vila, nestled amidst the whispering trees and thriving green terraces, await to be your sanctuary of healing and rejuvenation for the coming days. Take this time to settle into your new home, freshen up, and allow your senses to acquaint with the tranquility of the surroundings. Stroll around the grounds, breathe in the fresh air, and let your inner child embrace the joy of the outdoors as you mingle with your new companions, fellow retreat-goers who share your quest for holistic health and soul-purpose alignment.

As dusk gently descends, we'll gather under the twilight skies for a welcome dinner; a soulful union of divine flavors and human connection, marking the beginning of our transformational journey towards our higher self and mystical remembrance. You are here, in alignment, ready for growth, healing, and transcendence.

Day 2Awakening Vibrations: A Personal Pilgrimage Into Mindfulness

Day 2 commences with the golden hues of dawn kissing the landscape, inviting you into an invigorating morning yoga session with Josephine. This practice, infused with the energy of the morning sun, will guide you towards inner alignment and awaken your sense of vitality. The yoga session will be followed by a light breakfast to nourish your body and set the tone for the day.

The heart of the morning will see us delving into guided meditation and journaling, a sacred space for self-exploration, authenticity, and introspection. This journey invites you to uncover your weaknesses and doubts, allowing you to identify what should no longer serve you. Embrace the healing power of self-expression and work on your growth, casting away negativity and blockages.

As the day's energy peaks, a nourishing lunch will ground us, fueling our bodies for an afternoon yoga session. This second practice of the day will guide you towards deeper self-connection, strengthening your mental and physical stamina. As evening arrives, enjoy some relaxation as you unwind and explore the enchanting surroundings at your own pace. Then, for dinner, we'll regroup for a divine evening of connectedness.

Day 3From Stillness to Motion: A Day of Exploration and Natural Wonder

With the first light of day, we invite you for another morning yoga session. Infuse your spirit with the gentle vibrations of the waking world, aligning breath and movement in a sacred dance of wakefulness. As the sun climbs higher, satiate your body with a light breakfast to prepare yourself for the day's adventure.

The highlight of the morning is a guided hike to one of Slovenia's enchanting waterfalls. Here, amidst the natural resonance of cascading water, you'll feel the omnipresent vibrations of nature, a reminder of our own fluidity and transformative power. After a nourishing lunch, an afternoon yoga session further anchors this feeling of connectedness, deepening our engagement with our higher self.

The evening is free for you to spend as your spirit calls, unfolding as a perfect canvas for relaxation, exploration or simply unwinding in your own sacred space. Finally, we gather for a communal dinner to close the day.

Day 4Embracing Growth, Healing and Wholeness in Slovenia's Wild Beauty

The morning begins gently with a light breakfast, awakening your senses to the delights of a new day. Following this, we'll meet in the heart-space of guided meditation and journaling, an intimate interlude for reflection. This session, we encourage you to find your inner light in order to nudge your spirit towards greater self-awareness.

As the sun ascends further, we'll venture offsite for an invigorating canyon gorge hike, journeying into the womb of nature. Here, amidst raw and untamed beauty, we'll have an outdoor yoga session. Cradled by the elemental embrace of the earth, let us deepen our holistic health journey and merge our energy with the profound rhythms of Mother Nature.

We reconvene for a nourishing lunch before letting the afternoon unfold in leisure. Use this time of personal exploration and relaxation to resonate with the healing frequencies of our surroundings. The day culminates in a riverside campfire dinner, a communion with the primal element of fire. As we break bread, the flames dancing in harmony with the river's song, we collectively celebrate our journey towards transformation, the alchemical process of healing, and the sacred path to holistic health.

Day 5It’s time to say goodbye to our beautiful sanctuary and head home

On our final morning, enjoy a light breakfast and reflect on the transformative journey you've embarked upon, embracing the fulfillment and growth you've experienced. Once you check out of this sanctuary, catch your transfer back to the airport. As we part ways, the retreat may end, but the journey within continues. You are now a beacon of light and a vessel of healing, returning to the world empowered, transformed, and more deeply connected to your higher self. Safe travels.
