The retreat pogram

What could be lovelier than to immerse yourself totally in self care through gentle exploration of body and mind and restoration of your true nature as an abundant being? On this retreat we give you the opportunity to move towards the life you dare to dream and to connect with your inner source of health and wisdom. The movement and meditation practices are accessible to all, with gentle Yin Yoga for embodiment – in this style of yoga we practice postures that are held softly and enjoyed for many minutes at a time – Yoga Nidra for full body relaxation, a guided Meditation journey to settle you into your reserves of deep peace and increase body awareness and relaxation.

Each morning we will practice together in the Yoga Shala with the sound of the ocean to soothe you. In the afternoons we will have a group circle to talk, draw, craft and create using natural materials. In the time in-between you may do as you wish, walk, read, rest, write or socialise. As part of the retreat you will get TWO nourishing personal sessions, each an hour long, that are tailored to support your process.

We will all come together as a supportive community of individuals, gathering for a dedicated purpose to manifest positive change in our lives. A week to fully enjoy the benefits of life spent outside of the usual demands of work, worry and stress where you will be immersed in the beauty of nature and supported by the elements. We aim to help you clarify your most authentic expression of who you are and let it shine, finding greater clarity and peace of mind and taking home tools to make you feel more at ease navigating life’s ups and downs.

What a wonderful discovery! The retreat was so much more than we expected - on so many levels. Great yoga, excellent ayurvedic therapy and treatments, really good food - and amazing company. What a wealth of experiences we have taken home with us. Sam and his team were very kind and attentive and the other participants were all so special and warm hearted. We recommend this sanctuary to anyone who wants to enrich their lives and move forward.

A uniquely magical experience. From the moment you leave your shoes by the lotus pool to receive the warm welcome of a garland and king coconut, a sense of kindness and care envelops you.This is heartfelt. Every dish you eat is prepared with a knowledge of what will nourish your body and soul. Every treatment is administered by skilled practitioners who have taken the trouble to understand your individual physical and emotional state and to restore balance and harmony from the inside out.The sounds of this stunning enclave, hidden away down a winding track where peacocks strut and monkeys gambol, are those that evoke both stillness and awe. The sea declares its majesty and power on a peerless beach that nesting turtles call home. The constant and gentle swish of the lagoon and rustle of the trees that bound this space in natural seclusion, soothe and transport you to a deep place of calm.This is one of nature’s sacred spaces.Respect and honour for this is the ethos that guides life in this beautiful oasis which shines from the hearts of the remarkable team. Skilled in so many arts from Ayurvedic medicine and therapy, yoga, reiki, sound healing and, with simplicity and grace, a level of hospitality and care that is humbling.The mishap or the unusual request is met with unruffled efficiency. (My glasses broke and instead of facing a week in a blur and the prospect of navigating an airport when scarcely able to read a sign, an impeccably restored pair of spectacles was returned to me in the shortest possible time - leaving me to wonder if an optician had been spirited out of a ring or a lamp!)My experience at Sen Wellness will be an abiding memory. I will carry away in my heart the echo of the sea, the voices and faces of beautiful people who made such a soulful sojourn possible with huge gratitude to everyone of them for all the skill, knowledge, compassion and care that were the key ingredients of this delightful interlude.(And on the subject of ingredients, I will also carry away the tantalising Sen Wellness cookbook, so the adventure continues…)

Arrive to the Sen Wellness Sanctuary is like to get into a piece of heaven. It’s much more than a place to relax, it’s a truly and deep journey. It awakes your feelings, heals your emotions and takes care of you nourishing from the amazing treatments to the delicious food.Surrounded by the purest nature, you will find calm and joy in this place. The yoga classes and the meditations were such an experience, all the activities were part of the learning and all the staff is the best you can imagine: kind, warm and with such a good energy.Sometimes you have to slap yourself to check that you are not dreaming. It’s such a magical place that you won’t leave never. It’s just possible to be grateful and hope to come back again.
