Favignana is a small island in the heart of the Egadi Archipelago. Here the Mediterranean pulses, clear and alive. Just a couple of kilometers from Sicily's west coast, the island calls out to those looking for beauty still untouched.
LOCATION
Our accommodation is located by the sea, at a stone’s throw from the beach. You can admire the sea from your room and within minutes you’re in: diving into fifty shades of blue, breathing to the rhythm of the waves. The property is surrounded by nature, built with natural materials, in harmony with the elements.
SWASTHA
Swastha means in the Sanskrit language of Ayurveda: Health / wellbeing.
It is coming to rest in oneself, inhabiting our own inner nature, being at home in your own landscape. Swastha or Svastha is the ultimate source of wellbeing within ourselves: the basis of your health, healing and happiness. It is a journey in mind, body and spirit. Swastha / health is also a state of awareness: it remains with us, always.
The retreat aims to guide you trough the experience of personal health care by exploring your own nature and living in it accordingly, with awareness and self discovery.
Healing is the most inherent nature of life.
YOGA
We start the day with ayurvedic yoga. Wake up in our body, savor its intelligence and nourish all the tissues. Compassion will guide you through the exploration of your body and mind landscape, giving it softness, opening and strength. Finding space and safety in yourself.
Sensing the morning light, fresh air, the sound and salty smell of the sea, we will connect the outer nature with our inner one.
Alive within!
4-HANDS AYURVEDIC MASSAGE
You can book a series of four-hands massages: cleansing, realigning and strengthening.
A four-hands treatment intensifies the effects of the massage and amplifies the experience.
A dance in your body between left and right, up and down, outer and inner, leading to deep rest. Just like in the Yoga practice, we will get to the last corners of your body, leaving you more alive and with an expanded awareness.
