A 6 day retreat in Corsica.
Deepen your breath.
Lighten your body.
Clear your mind.
Most people are moving through life with only a fraction of what’s actually available to them.Not because anything is missing — but because it’s been covered over. Stress, conditioning, and experience accumulate quietly in the body. They shape how you breathe, how you think, how you respond — often without you realizing. Over time, this narrows your range.
Respira retreat is designed to gently open that range back up.
Days move between practice and free time.
Mornings open with movement and breath, slowly awakening the body.
Afternoons unfold with space to rest, swim, walk, or simply be.
Yoga, swimming, hiking, eating well, enjoying nature.
Evenings we come together, practical workshops and conversations that help you understand what’s happening, and how to continue it once returning home from the retreat.
Nothing is separate. Everything supports the experience.
Nourishing vegetarian cuisine inspired by Mediterranean flavors, simple and generous.
Meals are shared, unhurried, part of the rhythm of the days.
In the first two days, you’ll also be guided through a three-part comprehensive “learn to meditate” course — giving you a clear, sustainable practice to take home with you.
That's the whole point. You don't come to Respiro to access something you can only feel here. You come to learn how to access it anywhere.
Corsica is called l’île de beauté for a reason. It naturally supports this kind of work.
The retreat takes place in a historic 15th-century monastery, surrounded by mountains and overlooking the Mediterranean Sea.
An intimate and peaceful setting, hidden within the maquis, where time seems to slow down.
Sunset views, nature all around you, the warmth of summer, the sound of the wind, the sea not far.
You arrive as you are.
You leave a little lighter, a little clearer, more connected to yourself.
