Will I have time to relax?
Absolutely. Although action filled, Soul & Trail has made it a priority to incorporate downtime into your daily itinerary. From mindfulness sessions to swimming, enjoying a meal with new friends or just appreciating the solitude, our week endeavours to improve focus, build emotional intelligence, and help you awake the soul.
Do I need to be super fit?
No! We welcome all levels of fitness and on this retreat we blend movement with nature and soul. You’ll practice running, yoga, mindfulness, and hiking mountains. We believe movement is a cornerstone of health. We move so that everything else becomes easy.
Movement increases endorphins and reduces cognitive decline. It reduces the stress hormones; cortisol and adrenaline. Exercise makes us all feel good, and is even a proven remedy for depression and anxiety. You take everything at your own pace!
