Detox Weekend in Italy, June 16-17 2018
A detox weekend in italy, (in Umbria precisely) connecting to nature, taking a break from smartphone and tablet.
disconnect to reconnect!
Digital devices have proved to be very useful for our work and our private life, but they have also changed our habits of thinking and being together, so much so as to create us digital feeders making us lose different occasions of relationship and well-being.
Digital Detox means “digital detoxification”, is the temporary renunciation of digital media and all kinds of electronic technologies (smartphones, PCs, tablets) to dedicate time to discover oneself and others, better if in contact with natural landscapes.
The Detox weekend in the enchanting region of Umbria has this goal, with a program dedicated to relaxation, reflection and the discovery of nature: listening to the pleasant sound of the Nera river that flows right under our hotel and the song of the nightingale, we will try to put aside the electronic devices, at least for a weekend.
A coach and a psychologist, Massimo Perciavalle, coauthor of the book “Offline è bello”, published by Franco Angeli, will accompany us on this journey of rediscovering ourselves and nature, offering exercises and tips to optimize the use of digital tools and stay more focused on the here and now, supported by the beautiful natural setting of Valnerina.
We will do yoga together (whoever wants) on the lawn in front of the river with Lex Ulibarri, Certified Teacher of Anusara® Yoga. Lex has lived and taught in Italy for the last 6 years, studying the history of sacred places in Umbria. He has a unique mix of precision and sensitivity that leads him to be a master and a guide through which to explore our complex inner world. Lex manages to bring, in the practice of asana on the mat, the philosophy and spirituality through which we can find our way to embrace the pulsation of grace that surrounds us and connects us all.
Furthermore, we will put our feet in the water and discover the village of Scheggino, entirely and beautifully restored, crossed by the Nera, which hosts us.
For dinner, the Hotel Del Ponte, where we will stay, offers a restaurant that is included in the Michelin guide and in the best gastronomic guides. Fine cuisine, an excellence for one of the most beautiful areas of Umbria: fresh pasta, trout, crayfish and much more.
In the detox weekend there will be an individual moment in which everyone can devote himself to his favorite activities (extra): from rafting that leaves right in front of the hotel, to the visit of the nearby Abbey of San Pietro in Valle and the SS. Felice and Mauro or of the Marmore Falls.
Even your small pets will be welcome guests!
Let’s start summer season in a magical place where silence, the scent of truffles and nature create the right atmosphere to regain your psychophysical balance.
