Mindfulness Journeys is leading an intimate group retreat to Morocco in May. Starting in the Marrakech Medina at our boutique Riad – we will enjoy the sensual delights of the sounds, smells, tastes and sights of the hustle and bustle of this old world culture. Think souks, exotic lanterns, palm trees, a full body scrub in the hammam spa and a massage. Book by 31 March for a €100 off special offer!

Heading off by Land Cruisers we drive through the desert to our Luxuy Eco Beach camp built especially for us by our Berber team. Our tents are luxurious with twin beds, high count Egyptian cotton sheets, Moroccan rugs and camp fires with Gamberi musicians and starry, starry nights.

Our days start with vigorous Lujong exercises followed by breakfast and Mindfulness/Awareness Meditation teachings. We break for a lovely lunch with the endless sea as our view followed by free time to enjoy the natural elements of the sea, swimming, walks on the beach, a beach ride by camel led by a Berber or just time for reading. We regroup for discussions and Mindfulness/Awareness practice before yet another sumptuous Moroccan dinner and time with new friends around the campfire under starry skies.

Led by highly qualified teacher, Brian Hilliard, a close student of Tibetan Masters over the past 36 years, Brian takes his deep personal mindfulness/awareness meditation instruction way beyond current trends of meditation retreats.

Co-founder, Shannon van Staden worked as a hospitality coordinator on luxury yachts, as well as a host of National Geographic’s global private jet expeditions and has been a fashion stylist to well known luminaries. Shannon fundraises for non-profits and is a Meditation Guide to students.

Mindfulness Journeys is affiliated with destinations that are elegant, meaningful, uncompromising in quality of food and ecology offering the opportunity to connect with local culture and nature as well as deeply with oneself. Think excellent simple cuisine, stylish interiors, a balance between elegant not opulent and finding relaxation and techniques in the teachings of Mindfulness/Awareness.

“What excites us most about our Morocco Sun & Sky Beach Retreat is the blend of the mystical Moroccan culture with the exquisite teachings of Mindfulness/Awareness Meditation”, say Brian and Shannon.
