Oasis of the Heart -
Your mindfulness journey into the desert

Yoga Retreat in Morocco, Sahara Desert

February 20-28, 2026

About the retreat

I invite you to immerse yourself in the healing world of yoga and mindfulness — in a place that gently touches your soul. A sacred pause where you are held by the stillness of the desert and reminded of what truly matters.


Here, where sky and earth meet in endless vastness, you are invited to go deep — into nature, into silence, into yourself. Far from the rhythm of everyday life, carried by the soft pulse of the dunes, a space opens for clarity, connection, and pure being.


You will be guided through a variety of yoga styles, meditations, and mindfulness practices, ranging from gentle to energizing, all attuned to the unique energy of this land. We open our hearts in a cacao ceremony, breathe deeply in pranayama sessions, sing together by the fire, let music move us, and dance beneath an infinite, star-filled sky.

Alongside this inner journey, a rich cultural experience awaits you. You will feel the warm hospitality of Morocco, be enchanted by the scents and flavors of traditional cuisine, and arrive fully in a welcoming, family-like atmosphere.


All of this unfolds in one of the most powerful and magical places on Earth:
the Sahara Desert.


This journey is your oasis of the heart — a gift to yourself.

Testimonials

Sylvia M.

My first yoga retreat in Morocco was shaped by Ina's grounding, energizing, and magical yoga sessions. Ina's energy and sensitive approach allow you to feel your breath, see your chakra colors dance before your mind's eye, and connect with your spirit. The desert opened my heart.

Christina S.

The desert is alive… and especially so when Ina leads us through her vibrant, uplifting, and heart-opening yoga exercises amidst the Sahara dunes. What a flow emerges in the desert! And then there was the precious time I particularly cherished: time for myself, for the wonderful meals we shared, and last but not least, for the extraordinary beauty of nature in this desert camp. A truly unique experience, both inside and out.
