What to Expect

A safe space for mothers to navigate the "empty nest " phase with connection, compassion and creativity

A group enjoys a relaxed meal at Suniai Oliva Retreat Center, surrounded by nature and vibrant conversation.

This 5-day residential gathering "Grounding in Emptiness" is specially crafted for mothers whose children have recently left home or will leave home next year. This new chapter, in many mothers’ life, brings with it profound changes in relation to your time, space, partner dynamics, and of course the evolving relationship with your children.

Gain self-awareness
Challenges and opportunities
Practices and strategies, that can support your capacity to navigate the transition
Identity: "Who am I without the children around?"
Endings and life cycles
Identify practices, attitudes and relationships to support your development

The workshop will balance theory with experimental exercises and discussions to integrate the learning. As well as integrate a holistic approach involving the nature, yoga and energetic nutrition as a whole experience.

MANDY BARTZELIOTI

Born in the beautiful city of Patras, Greece, I have a deep connection to my roots and nature. My healthcare journey began as a midwife and pre-postnatal educator specializing in mental health. After moving to Asia in 2001, I discovered my passion for yoga through an inspiring teacher, which led me to explore various styles and complementary practices. As a registered yoga instructor, I create nurturing environments for my students, focusing on Hatha, Yin, and pre/postnatal yoga while remaining committed to supporting and guiding others on their paths to growth and healing.

MARIE FLOURIÉ

Marie Flourié is deeply dedicated to healing: she is a Kundalini yoga teacher and Sat Nam Rasayan healer. But, above all, she is a calm and gentle soul, and simply human in a powerful way.
She is the founder of a successful cleaning business in Stockholm Sweden, Maries Puts & Städ AB with 250 employees. In 2019 she and her husband sold the business and moved to Spain where they are now building this retreat paradise, called Suniai-Oliva.

PILAR LLORET

After a professional career as an engineer for 16years, she decided to change her personal and professional direction.
A few years ago, she changed her way of eating and this gradually transformed her way of
seeing life. She moved to Barcelona where she spend a few years studying and training as an
integrative dietitian and therapeutic and macrobiotic cooking, among other disciplines. Her interest has always been in knowing how food and cooking influences us and can bring us harmony and peace.
