Ikegai at Patina Maldives

In the philosophy of many Asian countries, the four elements stand for different forces of life: water for clarity and flow, fire for transformation and energy, earth for grounding, and air for lightness. The FLOW Spa at Patina Maldives combines traditional healing rituals with modern wellness technologies. Event in late autumn: the retreat The Ikigai Way: The Art of Living with Intention (November 20-23, 2025).

At the center is the Japanese life philosophy Ikigai. Led by Yogetsu Akasaka, Zen Buddhist and internationally sought-after sound artist, the four-day program includes a variety of mindfulness and movement practices, sound journeys, and rituals. This practice is complemented by sunrise meditations, beatboxing and mantras, fire and cacao rituals, as well as individual coaching sessions with the Awa·ré Collective. Info: Patina Maldives

The 24-time Grand Slam winner and Olympic champion Novak Djokovic invites you to an exclusive three-day Mobility and Recovery Retreat on the Turks and Caicos Islands. Specifically, at the super-luxurious Amanyara resort. Date: November 21-23, 2025.

The program focuses on three main areas: mobility, regenerative recovery, and promotion of longevity. Djokovic, accompanied by members of his personal tennis team, shares proven methods to improve flexibility, mobility, and functional movement.

Djokovic explains: "When designing this retreat, my goal was not only to enhance the immediate well-being of the participants but also, together with Aman, to emphasize a commitment to longevity. It's not just about living longer but better. Regeneration and mobility have been central to my career from the start, and I'm excited to share my experiences and see what we can achieve together during our time at Amanyara."

Located on the edge of an 18,000-hectare nature reserve, Amanyara provides the ideal setting.

Finding balance at Cal Reiet in Mallorca

The name itself promises a special place in the rural heart of Mallorca: Cal Reiet means "house of the little king." Hosts Petra and Henning Bensland have lovingly restored the estate built in 1881 on the outskirts of Santanyí and transformed it into a stylish retreat. However, the focus is more on inner values, as every visitor can experience their own transformation: "At Cal Reiet Holistic Retreat, it's about mindfulness and genuine connections," emphasizes yoga teacher Petra Bensland.

Additionally, the house focuses on holistic nutrition, so only vegetarian and vegan dishes made from predominantly seasonal, regional products are on the menu. The boutique hotel also offers year-round yoga programs and individual spa treatments. Multi-day retreats focusing on yoga, meditation, and mindfulness also take place. For example, 108Impulse - Purify.Relax.Recalibrate. Be - Reconnect your Body, Mind, and Soul with Karla Lüderitz (21.10 - 25.10.2025). Information: Cal Reiet
