Flow with Mie in Zanzibar
I pour my heart and soul into crafting my retreats. Each retreat is uniquely and carefully designed, from its location, programs, and extra activities. They are fruits of the beautiful meetings and collaborations with loving friends from all over the world. Whatever it is that is calling you to retreat, I am thrilled to give you the best I have to offer, and sharing these wonderful experiences with you.
Come join this purely nourishing seven-day yoga retreat to slow down, reset and renew. This transformative week is filled with inspiring yoga, wild nature, delicious meals, great company to recharge your body, mind and spirit.
This personalised yoga immersion week is thoughtfully designed for you by Mie who has lived in Tanzania for many years, with the unique blend of profound yoga, sound, healing touch, wild nature, healthy food, people with good energy, and unique culture in Zanzibar.
Nature in Zanzibar has special energetics, which is one of the most ideal places in the world to practice yoga and cultivate our wellbeing: supporting the process of coming back to yourself, rejuvenating your energy like no other place. Zanzibar offers us space and freedom just to be ourselves: we create a peaceful and supportive environment to deepen/begin your yoga practice, reflect, observe, nourish, and bring natural balance back to our body, mind, and energy.
Embrace excursions to Stone Town, the world heritage site, visit Jozani Forest to watch unique Zanzibar Red Colobus Monkey, get on a traditional Dhow boat for a cruise and see a most beautiful sunset, learn how to kite-surf at one of the best kite-surfing sites in the world and soak up the beauty of Zanzibar beach with serene water, blue sky and white sand. This retreat includes some of the best Zanzibar has to offer and you get to do it all – or stay and rest to reset. You can create the retreat you need for yourself, just the way you want and need to. Let it be an adventure inward, as well as in the external beauty of this special place.
My wish is that this retreat becomes the magical place where you can participate in active self-care rituals and transform and balance your energy, beginning to feel fully present and awake, bringing more perspective to our your holistic wellbeing.
You will go home with new energy, fully inspired, nourished, and recharged.
The practice is all-level at beautiful and spacious yoga Shala, directly facing a tranquil white sand beach. Take your practice to a deeper level through mindful vinyasa flow yoga approach, breathing techniques, and powerful meditations.
There are two practices daily. Morning practice is focused on connecting movement and breath to awaken your energy and move it through all energy centers (chakras). Authentic and creative practice will include mantra, meditation, purifying breathing practices and well-rounded body movement. The morning session concludes with a profound full-body relaxation & sound healing.
Evening yoga sessions are designed to bring you back into the present moment and to help you release deep-seated tension in your muscles and tissues. You will be able to surrender and relax with a yin/restorative practice, which will help to activate meridians along the whole body and balance the flow of energy. This session will help you to calm the nervous system, find stillness and invite positive energy towards the end of the day.
Both practices will end with deep full body relaxation and sound healing.
