A shorter taste of Alaya's signature equine work — three days of yoga, meditation and healing alongside rescued horses in the Catalan countryside.

About this experience

A condensed version of Alaya's signature equine-assisted retreat, for those who want the experience over a long weekend rather than a full five days.

Horses live in the present and respond to our nonverbal cues, which makes them powerful mirrors for our own emotional state. Over three days you will combine daily yoga and meditation with guided time alongside Alaya's rescued herd — including meditation with horses, breath connection sessions, and an introduction to the chakras of the horses with Reiki.

Alaya offers a different horse activity each day, so guests staying multiple days experience the full range of the work. Individual healing sessions, coaching sessions and Reiki with the horses are available at an additional fee.

This retreat can also be arranged on other dates and durations on request.

This retreat runs twice a month, based on facilitator availability. It is not available between 27 June and 14 July.
