ABOUT THE RETREAT

Step into a sanctuary of peace, presence, and renewal. Charmaine’s seasonal retreats at Suryalila invite you into a safe and nurturing space where you can relax and reconnect. These retreats go beyond yoga, they are a journey of deep restoration, self-discovery, and heartfelt connection.

Each day combines energizing yoga and restorative yoga with powerful transformative practices such as conscious connected breathwork, sound healing, yoga nidra, and devotional chanting. Together, these practices create space to release, reset, and return to your authentic self.

The retreats are not only about inner work but also about community and connection. You will share sacred circles, a cacao ceremony, and moments of stillness and joy with like-minded souls.

While the retreats follow a set frame, Charmaine tailors each one to the needs of the group. At the opening sharing circle, intentions are voiced and the retreat naturally shapes itself around them. Her aim is always to create a safe container, a space where you are seen, heard, held, and witnessed.

Surrounded by the stunning Andalusian countryside, nourished by delicious organic food, and supported by Suryalila’s peaceful environment, this is the perfect setting to pause, replenish, and realign with what matters most.

Charmaine is the main space holder, supported by experienced Suryalila facilitators who bring their gifts to certain practices such as the daily morning yoga classes and cacao ceremony, enriching the retreat with their expertise alongside Charmaine’s wisdom.

ACTIVITIES  

​​​​

Each day is carefully designed to balance energy and rest, movement and stillness, self-reflection and connection:

  • Mornings begin with energizing Vinyasa yoga and meditation led by Suryalila teachers, awakening body and mind, cultivating presence, and setting the tone for the day.

  • Afternoons invite you into restorative or yin yoga, offering deep release, relaxation, and grounding.

  • Daytime sessions open the door to profound inner journeys through rebirthing breathwork, sound healing, yoga nidra, devotional chanting, and other transformative practices. These immersive experiences create space for emotional release, healing, and reconnection with your essence.

There is also spaciousness for personal reflection, quiet time in nature, or connection with the group. This rhythm of activation, transformation, and integration ensures that by the end of the retreat, you feel both uplifted and deeply restored.

WHAT PREVIOUS PARTICIPANTS SAY.. 
One week with Charmaine did more for me than years of therapyHayem, Summer Sancturay 2025

I wanted to acknowledge the value and the gift of what it is to spend a week with Charmaine and the lovely women that I've met on this trip.

I have a participated in a lot of traditional therapy essentially since I was a teenager and while some traditional therapy has been helpfu, Il think that this experience with Charmaine probably in one week did a lot more than years of therapy have done for me. 

Charmaine is approachable and she's kind, she's generous and she's deeply knowledgeable. She's had a lot of education and she's also had a lot of lived experience, which I think facilitated me trusting her.
