RETREAT FOR THE SENSES

LUXURY YOGA & MINDFULNESS w/ PLANETA WINERY & Alexandra Meffert

“Alexandra Meffert, founder of Light Space Movement, proposes something different: a yoga retreat without giving up the great pleasures of life, such as good food and good wine. We can say that after five days in Sicily with her, we were happy: in a kind of cloud of pleasure without guilt. And of course, fuller.” - Catarina Loureiro

The Planeta Winery is a family run vinyard with 5 locations in different parts of Sicily. The wine resort La Foresteria Planeta in Menfi lies at a strategic point of Sicily, between archaeological sites and nature reserves, and provides the perfect beginning for a journey to discover the island.

Planeta has been the most ranked wine in a short period of time, with reviews and recommendations in renown papers, such as Financial Times, Forbes, The Guardian, Washington Post and more.

The Planeta brand was the highest climber after rising 22 places year-on-year to number 17 on the list of The World’s Most Admired Wine Brands 2021 in FT..

For the La Foresetria Retreat, we will visit the Planeta winery in Ulmo near Menfi for a Nature walk to La Segreta path and guided winetasting of 4 special old vintages wines selected from the Repertorio Planeta, as well as an aperitif and a freshly cooked Sicilian lunch paired with 2 Planeta wines and 3 Planeta olive oils.

 
 

The wine is just really fantastic. At this retreat you will not only have the chance to try all the different wines, paired with incredible food, but also see how the Planeta create their wine, visit one of their vinyards near the resort and try some very special bottles.

In the realm of this retreat, the creation of wine is a form of art with a long tradition and something experienced with our senses. It compliments the idea of this retreat: a pampering the senses.

 

WHAT IS THE BEST FOOD IN SICILY?

Next to the fabulous wine and olive oils, the food served at these retreats is mostly, if not all, home-grown by Planeta. It is the freshest, most delicious, and naturally flavourful organic food, cooked in the traditional Sicilian way.

YOGA & MINDFUL MOVEMENT SESSIONS

light. space. movement.

Throughout the days, we will go through a variety of breath-movement excersises, classes and a full workshop, where you learn to listen to your senses and what your very wise body tells you. They are designed to build up on each other, that at the end of the retreat, you will have learned many key elements that are a total game changer when it comes to movement, finding ease and relaxation and the great magic tool called breath.

At the end of this retreat, you will also receive a certificate of having completed my “breath-body-connection” retreat course.
