HATHA YOGA LESSON (at your accommodation)

A moment of silence and stillness for a slow and deep listening to our body, breath and sensations. A way to reconnect with ourselves and with the spaces of nature around us – Yoga suitable for any age and level.

AROMATHERAPY MASSAGE (at your accommodation)

Plants have a soul and healing properties distilled in essential oils. The aromatherapy massage is an extremely pleasant and relaxing moment that allows the oil to transfer the properties of the plants into our body. The oils we use are completely natural and distilled from Sicilian plants and flowers, a land rich in medicinal plants.

AROMATHERAPY EXPERIENCE

Sicily is a wonderful land rich in plants and smells. From its plants, it is possible to distill many essential oils, such as orange, lemon, wild carrot, rosemary, lavender, juniper, myrtle, etc. We are on the top of a hill in the middle of the countryside, with a spectacular view over the Noto Valley. We will search for plants, learn how to recognize them, and discover the properties they transfer to oils. After the walk, we will listen to essential oils and receive a self-massage lesson.

WALK AND MEDITATION IN NATURE

A meditative step walk inside the beautiful Vendicari Reserve. We will reach a point in the Reserve to practice Yoga Asana, breathing exercises (pranayama), and meditation. We will walk in silence along the coast until we reach the dunes of the wild Marinelli beach, combining contemplation of the sea with energy recharging.

SECRETS OF MEDITERRANEAN COOKING (cooking class)

The "golden" ingredients of Mediterranean cuisine: cereals, legumes, fruit, and vegetables. We will prepare together tastings of different dishes, learn secrets of healthy and tasty cooking using local seasonal products, and recover ancient rural traditions. After sharing the preparation, we will gather at the table to enjoy the dishes.
