The Art of Living Manifesto

She gently whispers to you…

Urging you to stop doing, striving and working, and start being, receiving and resting.

Do you hear her?

Let her light up the sky and illuminate all that needs to be seen to reconnect with ourselves.

Let us surrender to her magical energy, allow our spirits to be free and allow her to release our expectations and attachments.

Let us step into the light with renewed purpose and intention, stand in our truth, and celebrate who we are.

So we listen.

We make time to savour the tastes, sights and sounds that surround us.

We kick off our shoes and ground in the sunlit vineyards, turquoise waters and ancient villages.

We step off the beaten path into places, conversations, and moments that move us.

We rediscover ‘home’ as a place and feeling we create by embracing the art of living and being fully alive.

We celebrate life as an art form - to be felt deeply, lived consciously and cherished fully.

Not a fantasy, but a way of being and living. A life of beauty, connection, creativity, and soul.

This is la vita è bella.

Words of love

  • “Super wholesome retreat! Div and Laura made sure the journey was filled with practices that stimulated the mind, body and soul! From the carefully selected healthy local food and surfing with an experienced and fun instructor, to a reviving breathwork session and energising yoga class. Overall positive vibes in the way they attracted so many likeminded people and fostered community. I had the opportunity to connect with many - some of which who I have travelled with after and still am in contact with. If you are interested in meeting new like minded souls, learning new practices for your mind and body, and looking for new experiences in Morocco to make your time in Taghazout one not to forget - I'm very sure you will enjoy it!”

    Didier

  • “The Nomada retreat was such a unique experience for me, which I often look back to. Besides the beautiful location we had a wonderful community (who are now part of my Taghazout family), great program of experiences and of course delicious food. It was just the perfect place to escape daily life, to ground and reconnect with yourself and recharge with new energy and practices to take back home to live more authentically.”

    Larissa
