A Short Adventure
21 Oct 2025 – 26 Oct 2025
In this small group retreat I will be sharing with you ancient insights and practices which for centuries were only known by Spiritual devotees living in remote parts of the world. These are timeless teachings and techniques everyone should know, regardless of whether you consider yourself spiritual or not. Why? Because they give you a priceless advantage in life.
In a world full of misinformation, half baked mysticism and self-proclaimed gurus being able to depend on your intuition, instincts and inner knowing is now crucial. On this retreat you will learn how to cultivate your own spiritual intelligence and how to use traditional shamanic practices from fire ceremonies to energy mandalas.
Give me five days and I will give you some powerful practices to help you thrive

The 5 insights everyone should know.
The foundation of Zephyr’s teaching is built upon an extensive study of Yoga anatomy and physiology to Asana, laying the groundwork for students to be lead into a contemplative path inwards. This approach to Yoga is an integration of Yoga philosophy, psychology and creative sequencing, provides a wholistic and practical weaving of Asana, Pranayama, Mudras, Kriyas, Mantras and more, to deepen the student’s experience in finding their own path to the state of Yoga.
This is the ultimate pairing to Jo Bowlby’s work on guiding the guests through the ‘Steps for Life’ workshops.

Yoga & Meditation with Zephyr Wildman
The cuisine is delicious Moroccan-French fusion and extensively uses Azaren’s home-grown vegetables, fruit and olive oil. Traditional bread is baked daily in an outdoor wood-fired oven and the home-made olive tapenade is usually smuggled home in Zephyr’s luggage by the kilo. It’s delicious.
Vegetarian diets and other dietary requirements can be catered for. Meals can be served in a variety of outdoor locations and picnics can be prepared on request.
Azaren’s accommodation comprises 4 suites in the main house and 6 garden villas (about 100sqm each) each with a walled patio, outdoor (and indoor) shower and private terrace. For single occupancy the beds will be made as a double. For two guests sharing the beds will be separated as singles.
