Iceland Unbound

November 2026 - Full details to be confirmed

A Journey Through Earth, Fire & Water

Escape with me to the Wild North

Iceland is a land where nature’s raw power and beauty collide—where fire erupts from the earth, glaciers stretch endlessly, and waterfalls cascade with breathtaking force.

 

This 7-day yoga and adventure retreat is your invitation to immerse yourself in the untamed landscapes of the North, reconnect with your inner self, and embrace the elements in their purest form.

 

From daily yoga and meditation to soaking in geothermal lagoons and chasing the Northern Lights, every moment of this retreat is designed to awaken your senses and nourish your soul.

What our retreat members are saying:

My heartfelt words…

 Having just returned from my first ever yoga retreat , I can unreservedly recommend Vanessa Morten’s yoga escapes!! I travelled solo and one of Vanessa’s skills along with being a great teacher and tour group leader was her ability to promote an atmosphere of openness , humour and honesty that encouraged genuine friendships to build in a short time! 

 

Vanessa was flexible and adaptable , adjusting our yoga practices to suit our needs!

 

The accommodation was outstanding , Jim’s Farm villas and beach villas were first class and great places to experience Sri Lanka from .

A balance of yoga, tours and time to explore allowed me to make the most of my time on the beautiful island.

 

As for the food… wow! My lady like appetite took a backseat as wolfed down every meal that appeared!

Vanessa you are the best ,my first yoga retreat won’t be my last!! Is it too soon to book my next one ( or 2) with you! 

Big love Julie (UAE)
