Sept 2015 – Amalfi Coast Manifestation Retreat with Jayme Barrett

Infuse Your Spirit in The Amalfi Coast! 

September 12 – 18 2015

Would you like to be luxuriating on the Amalfi Coast on September 12th? For the past four years, I’ve been leading magical retreats with my husband in Tuscany and Marrakech and this year we’re excited to add the enchanting Amalfi Coast. I fell in love with it two years ago and knew immediately that I was coming back with a fabulous group! Our home base will be the stunning green island of Ischia (pronounced Iss-Key-Ah) and we’ll be visiting Positano and Capri by boat.

We have only 14 spots and it will be first-come, first-served with a deposit. It will fill up very quickly! If you are serious about joining us, email us here as soon as possible to secure your space. (Retreat fees and special pricing below.) Be ready to open your heart and have fun with like-minded new friends. If you want to be reinvigorated and filled with happiness, this is the trip for you! Read the fabulous details and may you be as inspired as I am!  – Jayme Barrett

Join best-selling author Jayme Barrett on her 7 day Italian Adventure on the Amalfi Coast and learn techniques to manifest your heart’s desires while energizing your body, mind and spirit. Overlooking the Mediterranean sea on the island of Ischia, we’ll stay at a charming country villa surrounded by gardens of flowers, olives, palms and lemon trees. Ischia (across from Capri) is more down-to-earth and known for the richness of its therapeutic mineral hot springs (which we’ll enjoy) and volcanic mud treatments.

We’ll eat delicious Southern Italian meals amidst glorious vistas, swim in warm thermal pools, enjoy yoga and manifestation classes, and take day trips by boat to the beautiful island of Capri and the stunning coastal town of Positano. On Ischia, we’ll visit magnificent botanical gardens, a medieval castle built in 474BC, shop in quaint villages and enjoy a full day at thermal spa with healing waters.

Come rejuvenate and luxuriate in the Italian Riviera. Let your spirit be infused by Italian culture and discover new ways to create positive energy and momentum in your life. You’ll experience “La Dolce Vita” with like-minded new friends in one of the most beautiful places on earth.

Accommodations in Ischia

For seven days, we will be guests at the beautiful Villa Lina. An “agriturismo,” Villa Lina is a country villa situated perfectly on a plantation of olive and citrus groves overlooking the Mediterranean. The property boasts two pools, one of which is filled with the famous thermal waters of the island, and the other carved into a rock grotto with sea water. Run by Nicola and his family, you’ll see the care and passion put into the villa and the respect of the land of the estate. This property is truly a piece of paradise.

You will enjoy spending time on the panoramic sun decks, relaxing, meditating, or just taking in the breathtaking views. Plus, every night you will experience a magical sunset! Each sunny room is nicely furnished, has a private bath, a terrace or balcony with an ocean view. Shared and single rooms are available. There is free Wi-Fi on the property.

Meals 

Healthful, Southern Italian food is part of the retreat experience, including daily breakfast, some lunches, and dinner each night hosted at Villa Lina. You’ll enjoy typical cuisine of Ischia prepared by Chef Benedetto with all with the freshest of produce and ingredients. Vegetables come from the on-site gardens or other farmers on the island, and of course you’ll enjoy some of the best local wines (not included in retreat price). Selection is seasonal, and you are guaranteed to love and appreciate each bite. There will be fresh seafood since it’s the island’s specialty.

Note from Karen: Teaching yoga at Jayme’s 2014 Tuscany Retreat was a dream come true.  Italy’s sensuous, bright, nurturing culture supported our practice beautifully. The Amalfi Coast (and oceanside views) will only deepen the experience! Hope to see you in September!

Travel and Flights to Italy 

You will be responsible for booking your own travel and flights. 

Participants from the United States will need to fly on September 11th in order to get to Naples, Italy on September 12th for the start of the retreat. Naples International Airport (NAP) is the closest to our villa on Ischia and there will be a group pick-up at 11am at the airport on September 12th. This transfer is included in the retreat fee. Check out www.skyscanner.com as you’ll probably have a stop-over in a European city

It will take about 3 hours to get to Villa Lina. You will be picked up, taken to the Naples port, hop on a Ferry and then driven to our villa as a group. Lunch will be served upon arrival. You might consider flying into Naples a day or two early to get adjusted to the time and enjoy Naples. If you’re interested, we can give you a hotel recommendation in Naples.

On September 18, the last day of the retreat, transfers back to Naples Airport can be arranged for 42 euros. Since it takes three hours to get off the island, you’ll want a late afternoon flight out or one on the following day. If you wish to go back to Capri or to Positano/Amalfi by boat, Villa Lina can help you arrange that.

As mentioned above, feel free to come to Italy a few days before or stay a few days after the retreat. It is a beautiful country and worth exploring. Also, we will be leading another retreat a few days later in Tuscany from Sept 21-28. We’d love to have you join us there too!
