ASTROLOGY AND YOGA NIDRA

FORMENTERA RETREAT

A long weekend of spiritual expansion

FORMENTERA, spain

2025 dates TBC

A retreat in nature, deeply exploring how everything is connected in the Universe.

During this long weekend in Formentera, (a small island off Ibiza) there’ll be sunrise meditations, moon gazing, astrology workshops, meditation, yoga nidra and star gazing. Full immersion on connecting with the elements of nature within us and around us and a focus on Inner Astrology and our intuition, metacognition and introception as much as looking outward to the stars.

This long weekend retreat will be 3 nights in Ibiza during October - enjoy the island feeling fresh and tranquil but with glorious sunshine.

Astro Travel has been noted by the Global Wellness Summit as something more of us as looking for. It’s a way for us to satisfy our Wanderlust needs to travel and explore our horizons, but also equally learn about ourselves deeply and understand the world through the lens of the astrology.

Astrology is the study of archetypes, energy, and patterns in our Universe. It’s not something that just happens ‘out there’, it’s mirrored in our own existence. This is the hermatic principle of “As above, so below. As within, so without”.

You’ll explore the 'Outer Sky' astrology with Belinda, delving into the movement of the planets and stars, and the themes of the stories they are weaving. 

We then transition to our 'Inner Sky,' focusing on our own energy and psyche, engaging with the astrological themes of the week through an inner journey practice called Yoga Nidra.

Yoga Nidra is an ancient meditation practice for relaxation, emotional regulation, manifestation and subconscious reprogramming. It translates to Yogic Sleep which describes the body and mind going to sleep but the inner awareness staying awake and present. It’s structured to guide us through the subtle energy bodys (koshas) to our inner most state. 

Yoga Nidra consists of working with a personal affirmation, body scan to create coherence, energy work, emotional regulation by somatic experiencing pairs of opposite emotions, awakening inner vision and imagination, and connecting with your inner most self.

Belinda scripts a Yoga Nidra journey that is reflective of the current astrology so that you have a chance to work with it deeply in your inner state.Ultimately this experience will provide the opportunity for you to take a pause from the everyday busyness of life and come back to your deepest self in a very nourishing way. This is a true “immersive wellness” experience in that we hope all the tools and techniques that you learn you’ll be able to immerse in your own life even after the retreat is over.

“Wow what can I say. Truly the best trip I have ever been on. Livia carefully selected the most beautiful hotel for this retreat and incredible teachers. Belinda who taught us all about meditation and more was exceptional. She was so patient and eager to share all of her knowledge with the group. She had such a calming presence about her.

I’ve never eaten better in my life, Morgan who was the plant based chef put so much love and energy into all the meals. She would explain all the ingredients in such detail, it made meal time SO exciting. Morgan’s charisma was infectious and she put a massive smile on everyone’s face every day.

I noticed how sharp my brain felt being on the retreat, I didn’t feel foggy. I felt energised, happy and confident. I think this was down to the nutritious food from Morgan and learning to be more present from Belinda.It was such a lovely experience to meet people from all over the world too. Everyone bonded in such a special way.  I think I need to go on one of the balance holidays retreats at least once a quarter 😂. Such a worthwhile investment. I feel genuinely lucky to have experienced this trip.”

I had a great time at the retreat and felt very well looked after in body and in mind. The workshops were really informative and everyone there shared the same health philosophy. The hotel was luxurious and would definitely choose this kind of retreat again.
