About This Retreat
The Peace Center offers a retreat for men in Níjar, Andalusia, at The Garden of Nâm.
The purpose of the retreat is to create a space away from the pressures and habits of modern life, allowing participants to reconnect with their bodies, their awareness and themselves.
The program includes daily meditation, mindfulness, Qigong, walking meditation, Asha meditation and Energetic Body Realignment, with music, rhythm and voice woven through the experience.
Why This Journey?
Energetic Body Realignment
EBR is one of the principal practices of this retreat: a sequence of exercises drawing from Qigong, Hatha yoga, martial arts and physiotherapeutic approaches. It was created with modern sedentary lifestyles in mind, for people who spend long periods sitting, working at computers or driving, and focuses on bringing greater awareness and movement to the body. Participants receive material that allows them to continue practising at home after the retreat.
Asha Meditation
Asha meditation is a contemplative practice that participants can continue using after the retreat as part of their daily lives.
Music, Sound and Voice
Music, rhythm and voice are part of the experience, with sound baths and musical moments designed to create deeper awareness and connection.
The Huebro Excursion
An excursion to the mountain village of Huebro lets participants explore the surrounding landscape and walk towards the natural mountain water source.
