“Since ancient history men from all over the world have known that it is essential to gather and share in that what is transcendental.”
A focused 4 day retreat (private or small group) designed to step out of the demands of everyday life and into an environment and program that was created to calm and reset the system. You will learn proven, practical tools that can easily integrate into your daily life, supporting greater clarity, focus and inner peace.
With a program of daily meditation, restoring and tension-relieving exercises
(EBR/Qi-Gong) and calming breathing methods, we gradually shift out of the
constant state of doing and give the mind and body an opportunity to settle. The
aim is to leave not only feeling refreshed, but with practical methods you
understand and can continue using at home.
This program is particularly suited to men who feel they have been running on
empty for too long — carrying too many responsibilities, constantly switched on, or simply reaching the point where they know that something needs to change and a clearer way forward is needed.
A practice developed for modern day man that influences the brain resonance with the use of specific rhythms to get more quickly into a more tranquil state.
Energetic Body Re-alignment: A sequence of gentle, yet powerful exercises that cultivates energy flow, rejuvinates, releases tension, and restores balance
A powerful, active and physical practice that creates focus, presence and connection without requiring previous experience or musical ability.
The morning program includes the profound method of EBR (Energetic Body Re-allignment). We sit behind laptops and couches and drive cars for long periods of time. The EBR program contains exercises from Qi Gong, Hatha yoga, martial arts, and a fysiotherapeutic background, that cover a wide area where these problems find their source.
Men with back, leg, shoulder and neck problems, experienced a gradual decrease, or even disappearance, of many of those problems, by using this program on a daily basis. For the participants of this retreat there will be a streaming link available to the sequence of the program to use back at home.
Rhythm, by means of drumming/percussion, is a powerful, active and physical practice that creates focus, presence and connection without requiring previous experience or musical ability. Rhythm gives the mind something concrete to follow.
Through simple drumming and rhythmic practices, you can experience how sound, repetition and movement strengthen your clarity and influence your energy and state of mind. The rhythms are followed instinctively and offer a natural, active way to become more grounded, focused and connected with yourself and the person(s) you are practicing with.
During the retreat you will stay in one of the traditional, Andalucian style guestrooms, with in the background one of the most beautiful mountain areas near the coast of Andalusia, Spain. The Garden of Nâm is an oasis of tranquility where you can walk along fruit vegetation, exotic plants and trees, where you can sit under the centrally located pergola or in little corners with cool shade and breathtaking views in all directions. Coming to The Garden of Nâm is coming to a garden of transformation.
Enjoy healthy and homegrown food, picked from the garden and prepared by our Ayurvedic cook. During the week you will be served a variety of ecological, detoxing, rejunvenating and tasteful meals. During the day coffee, tea, filtered water, fruit and healthy snacks are freely available.
We are situated in Níjar, one of the most beautiful villages of Andalucia. When you cross the bridge, 2 minutes walking from The Garden, you can enjoy a walk through the old village centre with its romantic, narrow alleys and traditional, Andalucian houses.
You can take a walk up the mountain to the Atalaya tower for a stunning view over the entire area, all the way up to the sea and the famous nature reservate of Cabo de Gata. In the old village centre you can enjoy a coffee or cold drink with tapas on the terrace at one of the traditional Spanish cafés, under amazingly shaped olive trees.
Should you decide to stay longer, there are many things to discover in the surrounding area, including the famous Natural Park ‘Cabo de Gata’ and its breathtaking coasts (where movies like ‘Indiana Jones And The Last Crusade’ were filmed) and the Western Villages in the spectacular mountains of Tabernas (the remaining movie sets from legendary westerns like ‘Once Upon A Time In The West’).
Choose from our private or shared rooms, with rates starting at €395 for shared and €450 for private accommodation, with premium rooms available at €530.
All meals are included, along with unlimited access to coffee, tea, filtered water, and a variety of healthy snacks such as dates, figs, nuts, and dried fruits, ensuring you stay refreshed and nourished throughout your stay.
