Samudra

This Retreats will be in English with Spanish Translator 🙏🏽

In a world saturated with constant stimulation, need for activity and distraction, engaging moments of true peace and stillness is like drinking water from a pure and untouched well; a precious but rare necessity.

A Silence retreat offers a concentrated opportunity to pause and reconnect with the essence of being.

Staying at Anand Dhandapani & Laura Rodenas means unplugging in a safe and serene environment, surrounded by the beauty of Cabo de Gata Natural Park. You’ll participate in meditation five times a day, silence walk, introspection sessions and two Hatha yoga sessions daily, guided by Anand Dhandapani & Laura Rodenas.

We will take care of everything you need so you can embark on a three day journey of profound inward exploration without distraction, immersed in silence, unraveling the otherwise hidden depths of your being.

We are hosting monthly retreats, third weekend of every month (Starts in September)

Over the years, we have explored many paths of healing, spirituality, embodiment and self discovery. If there is one thing our journeys continue to reveal, it is this:

We cannot see any greater purpose than becoming more real, more true, more ourselves.

For us, this means embracing both dimensions of the spiritual path.

The first is waking up: recognising the awareness that exists beyond our stories, identities, and conditioned patterns.

The second is waking down: fully inhabiting our humanity, honouring our emotions, our bodies, our relationships and the unique expression through which life wishes to move.

Our experience has shown that one without the other leaves something important untouched. We can transcend without embodying, or become immersed in our human experience without recognizing the deeper truth of who we are.

This is why the work we offer today weaves together both aspects: the Fully Human and the Fully Divine.

This 7th -11th October, we invite you to join us for a 5 day Fully Human Fully Divine Retreat in Las Negras, Almería, Spain, a space for self inquiry, meditation, somatic healing, embodied practice and authentic connection.

Together, we will explore what it means to meet life with greater presence, soften the layers of conditioning and reconnect with the truth of who we are beneath all the roles we have learned to play.

🌿 5 days immersed in nature

A space to remember that awakening is not only about transcending life, but about fully inhabiting it.

This retreat is also an adventure into joy. As regulation deepens and the nervous system stabilizes, joy arises naturally as lightness, presence, play and aliveness, not as something to chase, but as something remembered.

Held by nature and intentional guidance, this retreat is designed for anyone carrying physical or emotional tightness from stress, trauma, or the wear of daily life. You are invited to move slowly, listen deeply, and reconnect with your body as a place of trust.
​
What if your body is holding more than just tension?

Come with an open heart, and allow your body to tell its story.
