A wonderful journey to take a deep breath and relax

The most popular hotels for Yoga and meditation
Take a vacation with yoga and meditation - from weekends to longer trips
Meditation helps you to strengthen your mental health and learn to completely block out the outside world around you. In this way, you release forces that enable you to navigate life's cliffs calmly and with inner balance. You don't need to travel far to really switch off. In Germany, combination seminars are offered in the most beautiful regions. A yoga and meditation vacation is perhaps even more inspiring if you immerse yourself in foreign cultures, e.g. in Europe, Bali or even Africa.
These benefits are associated with a yoga meditation retreat
Yoga and meditation have the same philosophical starting point: the soul, the inner self, is the starting point for strengthening the personality and body, because body and mind form a unity. Both yoga and meditation develop this awareness.
However, they use different treatments to develop a strength and power that permeates the whole being. Originating in India, yoga uses spiritual rituals to first achieve the desired state of consciousness. Yoga then focuses on strengthening the body and flexibility through exercises, breathing techniques and concentration on defined movement sequences.
The main aim of meditation, on the other hand, is to empty the mind of all thoughts and gradually increase the duration of this state. This leads to an immediate gain or recovery of inner strength and serenity and is really comparable to recharging a battery. Yoga and meditation complement each other perfectly.
What to expect from a yoga and meditation hotel
You can do yoga with meditation and relaxation in well-equipped yoga resorts, which are housed in exclusive 3 to 5-star hotels or vacation resorts. These offer comfortable rooms and modern amenities. In Germany, they are often embedded in parks or spa facilities, which provide a beautiful backdrop for daily yoga exercises.
Elsewhere, however, they are located directly on the beach, far away in the mountains or in the middle of nature, ideal for further vacation activities and for leaving everyday life behind. Many yoga centers also have very well-equipped wellness areas.
There you can relax after your exercises in the pool, whirlpool or with massages. When booking, you can choose between breakfast, half board or full board, often including vegan or vegetarian food with regional organic products.
Programs of a typical yoga retreat with meditation at SpaDreams
The yoga and meditation seminars are divided into healing therapies for beginners and advanced practitioners and are led by qualified yoga teachers. In yoga, you learn different techniques, as some forms of yoga are more spiritual, while others focus more on breathing, physical fitness and flexibility.
As a group, you practise so-called asanas, movement sequences and sometimes also mantra chants. You also meditate together. In the meditation workshops, you learn to center yourself and completely isolate yourself from the outside world. In total, you will spend several hours a day on yoga and meditation sessions.
Afterwards, you will be able to practise this at home. Nevertheless, you will still have enough free time, as the vacation aspect of your yoga and meditation retreat should not be neglected. You will also have time to relax on the beach and in the wellness areas or make short trips into the surrounding countryside.
Popular destinations for a trip with yoga and meditation
Here in Germany, there are destinations for every taste and perhaps very close to you to combine yoga with meditation and relaxation. In Bavaria, in the lovely Alpine foothills of the Allgäu, you will find cozy country inns where yoga courses and meditation workshops are offered. Mecklenburg, on the other hand, is quite different, where you can swim in the Baltic Sea in summer and take long walks on the beach in winter. There are also charming rural locations in North Rhine-Westphalia. In the Weserbergland or the Teutoburg Forest you will find wonderful accommodation where you can spend a few days away from the hustle and bustle.
Of course, you can also soak up some sun, swim in the Mediterranean and enjoy a bit of the Mediterranean lifestyle when you take your yoga and meditation vacation in France, Spain or Italy. There are also a variety of yoga and meditation retreats on offer in different areas. You can also find peace and seclusion for your asanas in the Alps, on a Greek island or in Sicily - the choice is huge. You can always enjoy a bit of a sightseeing vacation, get to know the characteristics of the region and have the time and leisure to visit the local highlights.
If you want to take a yoga break in paradise, practice yoga and meditation on vacation on the flower island of Bali. Here you can practise asanas in original yoga resorts right on the palm-fringed beach of the blue-green Indian Ocean. Friendly staff will pamper you when you are not meditating. Enjoy the sun and white sandy beaches and calibrate your mind in dreamlike surroundings. A yoga and meditation vacation in paradisiacal Bali is a relaxing holiday in a class of its own. Meditate on the beach, concentrating only on your breathing and the sound of the sea.
You can also experience exoticism and foreign cultures in Africa. In North Africa, you can see the blue Mediterranean from the lesser-known southern side. There you will find yourself in a world full of color, exotic spices and exquisite cuisine. In Egypt, you will get to know the pyramids and one of the oldest cultures in the world. In South Africa, you will see penguins at the legendary Cape of Good Hope and lions on a safari in the bush. You can spend a dream vacation in the luxury class with total relaxation and maximum enjoyment of life in the Maldives.
