A week away from the noise of the world. Under vast open skies, slowing down to an ancient desert pace, connecting to natural living.
You crave simpler, slower living — being close to nature, feeling some spaciousness, and getting away from the noise and light pollution of the modern world.
We connect back to our innate, natural rhythms by combining nomadic desert life with ancient yogic and somatic practices for nervous system regulation.
You’ll walk with a local nomadic tribe — the Nouaji — and be guided through daily mind-body practices by Simone and Eva.
There’s no strict schedule — but this is the rhythm we tend to fall into, from dawn to nightfall.
1
Dawn
Wake up to the beauty of the desert. Intentional mauna (silence practice) as a way of taking in the morning calm.
2
Morning
Drink tea. Practice yoga. Enjoy a delicious breakfast. Pack up camp.
3
Midday
Walk to our next spot — an easy 3–4 hour walk through the desert. Set up camp.
4
Afternoon
Option to lend a hand with prepping lunch. Eat. Relax for the afternoon. Spaciousness.
5
Sunset
Practice Yoga Nidra or Yin Yoga as we bask in the colours of the sunset.
6
Evening
Dinner and evening by the fire — sharing stories, watching the stars, singing, or perhaps even dancing.
With you on this journey — co-facilitators of yoga teacher trainings focused on deep restoration and nervous system health.
Eva & Simone
Nidra Fae & Soul Guide
Simone brings a love of deep rest and inward listening through Yoga Nidra, Yin & Restorative Yoga and nervous system practices, weaving in earth-honouring practices and a reverence for the living world. A third-culture kid, she loves discovering the world, learning from different ways of being, and finding home in more places than one.
Somatic Pixie & Lover of All Things Real
Eva co-facilitates the same trainings through Yin Yoga and Nervous System Rewire work, with a wish to create spaces where people come back into themselves and move through the world guided by a felt sense of belonging. Earth-honouring spirituality, Earl Grey tea and her cats round out the picture.
