Eten...Mindfulness weekend at Chillida Leku
- Event
A Weekend to Pause
Stopping to breathe, to contemplate, to simply be and exist in life —and not just to do— seems like a luxury these days. Almost an act of rebellion. But precisely for that reason, spaces for pause are now more necessary than ever.
That is the invitation of Eten…, the mindfulness retreat hosted by Chillida Leku over two weekends in November.
An experience guided by Mamen Regalado and Nausica Sánchez, where art, nature, and mindfulness intertwine to offer us a time of calm and connection.
Through mindfulness practices —both in movement (body work inspired by yoga and mindful walks) and in stillness (guided and silent meditations)— participants are invited to stop, gain perspective, and let go, for a short while, of everything that is not needed here and now.
The experience includes:
2 nights at Hotel K10 (Friday and Saturday) with breakfast included
Private transportation from the hotel to Chillida Leku
Meals: Saturday and Sunday lunches at Lurra Café and Saturday dinner at Sidrería Saizar, always with vegetarian options
