Eteria · Elbitat
Detox & Longevity Retreat
Create space. In your days, your habits and within yourself.
An Eteria retreat alternating yoga, body practices, meditation and treatments. The 3-, 5- and 7-day formats leave room for guided activities and personal pauses.
The programme weaves together movement, yoga and exercises inspired by traditional Chinese medicine. References to elements and meridians belong to the tradition of these practices; the work invites gradual exploration of body, breath and sensations.
You can integrate a naturopathic nutrition programme agreed with the team. In this way, the journey continues at the table through renewed attention to ingredients and everyday habits.
The retreat, with or without accommodation
You can participate while staying at Elbitat, with the package discount provided, or choose the programme without accommodation. The team helps define the format and confirm what it includes.
Request retreat and accommodationA journey that starts with people
The first step is to name what you are looking for: rest, momentum, a pause from automatic habits or a different way of being together.
At Elbitat, we agree with you when to begin, based on team and activity availability.
The programme can be individual, for a couple or for a group. For corporate teams and sports clubs, Eteria also designs digital detox, creativity and team-building experiences. Goals, practices and shared moments are defined together with the people who will experience them.
You can devote one, two, three days or more. Eteria recommends at least three days to leave room for practices and rest; five- and seven-day formats allow a more immersive experience. Duration and intensity are agreed according to your needs.

3-day Detox Programme
Three days to interrupt automatic habits and discover the programme’s practices. An initial period of awareness, with guided activities, one treatment and pauses in which the experience can settle.
5-day Detox Programme
Five days allow you to return to the practices, become familiar with the movements and observe how you experience them. The programme leaves more space for the relationship between movement, treatments and personal time.
7-day Detox Programme
A week to enter the experience with continuity. Practices alternate with island life and free time: you can explore what feels closest to you and recognise which habits you want to take home.

Experience details
Treatments and activities
Discover the practices proposed in the programme: what happens during the sessions and what space you can devote to them.
Opening circle
The journey begins by getting to know one another. With Margherita, Oana and the group, you share intentions, discover the programme and find your place in the shared experience.
Closing circle
A moment to put words to what you have experienced. You can recognise discoveries, share what you wish and choose what to bring into everyday life.

A guided visualisation through the metaphor of water. Imagery and awareness invite exploration of letting go, giving personal form to what you wish to lighten.

A practice to pay attention to breath, muscles and sensations. The guide accompanies relaxation gradually, leaving you time to recognise how you feel.
Group Reiki — Awareness and rest
A Reiki session following the tradition of the practice, experienced with the group. You can devote yourself to rest and noticing sensations without seeking a predetermined result.
Inner awareness — “What truly nourishes me?”
A meeting to recognise what supports you: needs, desires and gestures you may give too little space. The guide helps you explore them from your own experience.
Inner awareness — “Welcoming the resource”
Courage, trust, lightness: which qualities do you feel you want to cultivate? Guided work begins with this question and looks for ways to recognise them in everyday life too.
Inner awareness — “Recognising and releasing resistance”
Group work to observe what makes change difficult. You can recognise resistance, share it if you wish and begin to consider it from another point of view.
Guided meditation and visualisation — Making room for possibility
An imaginative practice to explore how you want to feel and what place you want to give this possibility. Body awareness accompanies the imagery without asking you to become someone else.

Movements inspired by Qi Gong and yoga, focused on the back of the body, lower back and pelvic floor. The Water theme in Chinese tradition accompanies exploration of support points, sensations and tension.

Twists, movements and side stretches inspired by the Wood element in Chinese tradition. The sequence invites you to observe the relationship between tension, movement and emotions according to your sensitivity.
Spleen, pancreas and stomach embodiment — Earth Element
The theme of nourishment meets work on the body’s centre and abdomen. The reference to the Earth element accompanies a practice devoted to exploring support and sensations of stability.
Heart embodiment — The Inner Smile
Movement and meditation meet around the theme of the “inner smile” in Chinese tradition. A practice devoted to the chest, breath and how you feel.
Connection with the Axis of Life
A practice inspired by the symbolic relationship between heart and kidneys in Chinese tradition. Roots and direction become images to explore: what supports you and what you wish to move towards.
