Dolce far niente is a uniquely Italian idea that translates as sweet idleness. We’ll take this as our guiding mantra for the week.
You’ll spend your days moving between yoga class, nourishing plant-rich meals, and unstructured down time to walk, swim, read, journal, daydream and nap.

SLOOOW FLOW AND RESTORATIVE YOGA RETREAT IN SOUTHERN ITALY WITH LIZZIE LASATER
9 – 16 September 2023
Description of the retreat
You’ll spend your days moving between yoga class, nourishing plant-rich meals, and unstructured down time to walk, swim, read, journal, daydream and nap.
Days look something like this:
- 8-9 am Light breakfast, coffee and tea
- 9-11am Slooow Flow Yoga Practice
- 11:30am Brunch
- 4:30-6pm Deep Restorative
- 6:30pm Dinner
- 8pm Some evening programs like Yoga Nidra, Sound Bath, Movie Night, or Howling at the Moon Meditation.
Spacious afternoons are open for lazing by the pool, getting a massage, or exploring. Perhaps you want to swim at the local beach? Or, eat an ice cream in town? (both require a short taxi ride, or a rental car which the center can organize on a daily basis.)
Mid-week we’ll have an entire un-structured afternoon (no yoga class) so you can luxuriate in the “Dolce Far Niente” experience.
Sounds fun, right?
