Infuse Your Spirit in Southern Spain! 

September 16 – 23 2016

Would you like to be luxuriating in Andalucia Spain on September 16th? For the past five years I’ve been leading magical retreats with my husband in Italy and Morocco and this year we’re excited to add Southern Spain. I fell in love with it years ago and I’m excited to share the Spanish culture with another wonderful group of women! Our home base will be a villa in the beautiful countryside outside of Jerez de la Frontera and we’ll be visiting many cities and towns in this region known for its stunning landscapes, seascapes, tapas, flamenco music and sherry vineyards.

We have only 12 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 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 8 day Spanish Adventure in Andalucia and learn techniques to manifest your heart’s desires while energizing your body, mind and spirit. Andalucia’s sandy beaches, beautiful countryside, spectacular mountain ranges, fabulous monuments and high-spirited people are well known for their exuberance, warmth and hospitality.

We’ll delight in home-style Spanish food and wine, enjoy yoga and life enhancement classes, swim in the salt water pool and stroll the vineyards at our villa. On our day trips, we’ll visit Jerez de la Frontera (we’ll watch Flamenco dancing, sip Sherry & explore the Alcazar), Cadiz (we’ll stroll in one of the oldest seaside cities in Europe), and explore the white hill towns known as the Pueblos Blancos (we’ll enjoy tapas, sangria, amazing views and shop for Spanish leather goods). Our trip wouldn’t be complete without seeing the famous dancing horses of Jerez and soaking in the healing waters of an Andalusian hammam spa.

Come rejuvenate in Andalucia. Let your spirit be infused by Spanish culture and discover new ways to create positive energy and momentum in your life. You’ll experience “La Buena Vida” with like-minded new friends a beautiful part of the world.

Accommodations in Spain

For eight days, we will be guests at the beautiful country villa, Casa Vina del Alcantara, which lies concealed in a deeply wooded garden of palms, cypresses, myrtle and bay. The extensive lands around the villa (built in the 1890’s) are a real treasure, where the lovely swimming pool lined with natural stone lies in a verdant lawn, and guests can take short walks in the woods or long ones out through the vineyards and down around the lake which is a magnet for ducks and other waterfowl.

The décor of the house reflects touches of arts-and-crafts blended with traditional Andalucian style and some surprising English elements, befitting of the anglophile owner. The beautiful bedrooms are warmly decorated in muted colors. Some have steep beamed ceilings, and all the bathrooms are really special: lots of crisp white marble, thick soft towels and invigorating showers. Other amenities include bathrobes, toiletries, air conditioning, Wi-Fi and honesty bar. Shared and single rooms are available.

At our villa property, you’ll enjoy:

• A Terra-Cotta Tiled Salt Water Pool
• Gardens and Vineyards
• Relaxing, Reading and Daydreaming
  

Meals

Breakfast is either served at highly polished drop leaf tables in the airy dining room or in a cobbled courtyard beneath the lemon trees. You are treated to silver service and will always be offered an English breakfast of lightly scrambled (or poached) eggs with bacon, as well as croissants, homemade cake, fruit juices and yogurt accompanied by pot-fulls of tea and coffee. 

For lunches and dinners, the culinary accent is on home cooking of the kind that the family would prepare for their own meals. Expect a seasonal vegetable soup, gazpacho or consomé al Jerez followed by chicken or fish fresh from the slab in the Jerez market. After a dessert of homemade ice cream or fresh fruit salad coffee is served in the adjacent drawing room. Wine will also be served at dinner. 

Life Enhancement Classes with Jayme Barrett

Jayme Barrett’s classes will be held at our country house. You will learn techniques to energize your body, mind and spirit including special breathing, meditation and energetic exercises to release stress and boost happiness. Jayme will also teach powerful ways to bring in more happiness, health, success and love using feng shui, life enhancement and manifestation tools. Come with an open heart, bring a journal and be ready to call in your heart’s desires. To read more about Jayme, visit www.jaymebarrett.com.

Yoga and Mindfulness Classes with Valerie Landis

You’ll enjoy five morning classes with Valerie Landis from Boca Raton, Florida. She beautifully integrates all yoga levels into the practice. In addition, Val will teach pranayama, mindfulness and yoga philosophy. We’re so thrilled to have Val teaching again on this Spain retreat. She was with us in Tuscany last September! Please bring your own travel yoga mat. You’ll be practicing in the beautiful garden.

Travel and Flights to Spain

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

Participants from the United States will need to fly on September 15th in order to get to Seville, Spain on Friday, September 16th for the start of the retreat. There will be a group pick-up at 11am at the Seville Airport (SVQ) on September 16th. Make sure your flight arrives by 9:30am so you are on time for the pick-up. It’s about a 1.25 hour ride to our villa. Round-trip transfers to our villa are included in the retreat fee.

Check out www.skyscanner.com as you’ll probably have a stop-over in a European city. You can also fly into Madrid or Barcelona and take a train (or short flight) to Seville a day or two early as it’s a beautiful city to explore.

On Friday, September 23rd, the last day of the retreat, a group transfer back to Seville Airport will be arranged. Since it takes a little over an hour to get to Seville, you’ll want a flight out at 10am or later. If you wish to go to the Jerez airport or train station (10 min away), we can help you arrange it. The transfer back to Seville is included in the retreat fee.

We are leading another magical retreat a few days later in Marrakech from Sept 26-Oct 3. We’d love to have you join us there too!
