About this Retreat
Your Guides
My name is Arianna Montanari and I have created mielestrega and Yoga Synergy Sweden in 2020, when I felt I wanted to do more for this planet. I have been studying Yoga Synergy with Simon Borg-Olivier since 2019 and that was a wake-up call from my grind life, pushing through my body's resources and energy. I now live a much more balanced life, really listening and understanding my body and emotional patterns much better (always work in progress!).
I live in Stockholm since 2013, I am Italian, I am a beekeeper and I have my own line of natural body products mielestrega.
I also run a yoga studio in central Stockholm and have my own podcast "The Synergy Podcast".
Details of this retreat
Escape to La Gualda Vecchia, a gem in the hills of Tuscany, for a retreat designed to slow you down, reconnect with your creativity, and realign you with your body, vision, and purpose. Through daily Yoga Synergy practice, hands-on creative workshops, and mindful moments in nature, Root & Flow invites you to move, express, and rediscover your inner clarity.
Each morning, we’ll flow through Yoga Synergy to awaken the body and soften the mind. Later, we’ll gather to create with our hands: journaling, painting, myo body butter, or drawing.. Unlocking ideas and insights that connect you with your deeper goals.
