2024 Italy Retreat - Eat Paint Love!

Antico Borgo di Tignano - Tuscany, June 8th - 14th

Join Sonja and Cork & Chroma founder and art therapist Hillary Wall, as we explore the art of living ‘La Dolce Vita’ at this very special Art & Yoga Retreat in Tuscany, held over 6 nights / 7 days. Ignite your senses and love of life, as we spend the week immersed in the stunning Tuscan countryside. This retreat is mindfully designed to awaken your appetite, inner artist and sense of aliveness, as you will be surrounded by picturesque views, farm-to-table produce, and our own studio (think: yoga and art in the mornings, lazy afternoons by the pool). You'll find camaraderie, connections, and above all, inspiration.

This 4-day retreat offers a flexible and spacious program of daily yoga classes, art therapy sessions to connect with your intuition, nature trails, sharing circles, divine feminine meditations and so much more. As always, delicious, nourishing food will be made in-house by our very own chef (hello sunrise chai & hazelnut cookies). Return home rejuvenated and nourished from the inside out - one of our regular guests calls it her ‘reset’ retreat.
