Why should you join us?

This holiday is something for you if you are looking for a relaxing and healthy start of the new year, if you love nature, or if you are simply looking for a special winter holiday in a beautiful place. This week is all about self-care, taking time for you! We have designed a program to feed body, mind and soul with delicious Italian food, daily yoga & meditation sessions and outdoor activities to enjoy nature but also relax at the spa and enjoy the view. The yoga classes and other activities will be tailored to the individuals in the group and previous experience is not needed. All activities are optional, so if you rather stay in and enjoy the comfortable lounge room or the spa you're welcome to do so!

The Pineta Nature Resort

4* Hotel in Trentino. 880 meters above sea level at the famous area of Val di Non. A place where the scent of wood is combined with that of essential oils, good food, and active life in the open air. Every space at the hotel is designed for relaxation. The Pineta is not the usual hotel, but a familiar mountain resort consisting of three small houses and four Trentino-style chalets spread over the meadows.

During our Retreat we will also enjoy the wellness center Hedonè, where you can enjoy the beneficial effect of water immersed in the Jacuzzi, regenerate your whole body by breathing the balsamic air of the Finnish sauna and steam baths. You can also enjoy treatments inspired by nature. They have designed and manufactured cosmetics with active ingredients based on apple, queen of the Val di Non, and fragrant creams like the flowers of the mountains.

Yoga and Meditation

During the week there will be twice daily yoga & meditation classes with Aviv. The morning sessions are active but mindful vinyasa flow classes, breathwork, detox, Qigong, and meditation. Always during Shavasana, you will receive a head massage with essential olis by Lakshmi And sound bath healing. In the evening we will practice a mixture of restorative yoga, yoga Nidra, and yin yoga or different kind of moving and dancing meditation. Depending on the weather and preferences within the group more classes might be offered or a Tantric ceremony. All classes are tailored to the individuals in the group so that everyone can participate at their own level and pace. I love to create classes that empower & establish a better relationship between mind and body, and that create the right energy for the time of day. Classes are themed, but always have a strong focus on the breath.


SNOW SHOE HIKING

Snow-covered mountains are a quiet winter wonderland that is best explored by foot. The Retreat will take you on guided mountain walks to soak up the peace and beauty nature has to offer. We might see wildlife too. Do you prefer to go out on your own or joing a ski class? No problem.

OTHER ACTIVITIES

In addition to yoga classes and the guided hikes, there is more to explore! We will enjoy a traditional Trentino cuisine cooking class, guided Sauna, learning about local herbs and tea ceremony, sound bath healing with tibetian balls in the spa, Wine tasting. and more
