Hi dear friend,
I was meant to be in India right now, for various reasons we’ve postponed until next year.
Instead… my wife and I found ourselves soaking in thermal waters in San Casciano dei Bagni — and something unexpected opened.
We spent four days moving between rain, mist, ancient hills, and hot springs.
Paid ones, free ones… and adjacent to the ones open to everyone, an archaeological site that turns out to be one of the most important sacred shrine discoveries in Italy in decades!
Soaking in that water felt different.
Not just relaxing — but deeply nourishing.
As if the land itself and that sacred area was doing its work.
On our last day, I spoke with the hosts of where we were staying. I mentioned that I run yoga, meditation and retreat experiences.
They said, “You have to see this place.”
So we did.
An old farmhouse — beautifully restored.
Big communal spaces. Silence. Nature.
And… its own private thermal pool!
A circular hotter pool that feed into a larger one.
I remembered my aqua-yoga training years ago with François Friedman — movement, release, strength and play in water.
And it clicked.
This place would be perfect for a deluxe, deeply nourishing retreat:
Yoga & meditation
Gentle water practices
Stillness, play, beauty, and rest
For your body, heart, and nervous system
Nothing is decided yet.
But if this kind of experience resonates with you, I’d really love to know.
Not to sell you anything yet — just to feel into whether this wants to become real.
If you feel a quiet “yes” in your body, just reply with:
“That sounds amazing.”
Let’s see if this retreat wants to happen. Could be in November… I’d already started planning a thermal bath retreat near Viterbo, hotter water (58°C!).. but this feels something else, more restoring and centering..
If you’re curious about the kind of experiences I already offer, you can explore my retreats and adventures for 2026 here — from yoga and meditation in nature, to playful and creative retreats, and even one for juggling teachers.
