Our Mindfulness meditation and forest bathing or Shinrin Yoku retreats are at the 17th century convent – rural hotel, La Almoraima in the heart of los Alcornocales national park near Castellar de la Frontera in the province of Cadiz in Spain. It is one of the biggest estates in Spain within an abundance of bio diversity and an ancient forest.
La Almoraima
I offer Study Retreats for students of Chinese medicine and for health professionals who would like to take time out for study, reflection and meditation.

I also offer Five Element study retreats for laypeople who are interested in human and planetary ecology and are looking for understanding and practical tools to address their own health and to face the challenge of living in our world today. We also draw upon the wisdom of Taoist medicine’s Five Elements and Food Energetics. We look at health starting with the soil, vegetation, biodiversity of species, our planet and solar system. Holistic health expands from the body, mind, spirit to include planet and solar system.
