Enter now to win a week-long, all-expenses-paid yoga retreat in Ibiza
As necessary as lockdown has been for our public health, our physical and spiritual wellbeing have taken a bit of a nosedive. As restrictions ease and travel plans start to get off the ground, we can't think of a better way to shake off and stretch out - literally and figuratively - than with a week-long yoga retreat on the White Isle.
Luckily for you, we've teamed up with Mojo Rising to offer you and a friend the chance to do just that - and we're throwing in return flights and transfers too. This is a holistic experience, and then some.
Gazing over the Mediterranean Sea from the pine-clad hills of northern Ibiza, Mojo Rising is a new breed of yoga retreat, where the worn-out and city-weary can reconnect, recharge and seek fresh inspiration without the feeling of restriction or forgoing life's earthly pleasures.
Not too far from the village Sant Miquel de Balansat, the retreat is set in a finca that once belonged to an eccentric Spanish artist - and the bohemian pulse remains tangible today. A soulful palette of wood, stone, water and light permeates hidden corners ideal for quiet moments as you relax into the laid-back pace of life.
Push through Saharan doors and you'll enter the sea-facing Cliffside Villa, Mojo Rising's finest accommodation option and your home for the week. Textured, coral-coloured walls backdrop Burmese statues and an enveloping bed laden with textiles inspired by East Asia.
Settled in, your days will be spent soaking up ocean views from the yoga deck during twice-daily dynamic classes designed to strengthen the body and cultivate a sense of mental wellbeing - no matter whether you're an advanced yogi or complete beginner. Rise with Ashtanga, Vinyasa flow and Hatha practise; in the evening, wind down with a restorative session or Pranayama meditation.
Mealtimes here are a wholesome, communal affair set against rolling hills. Around a long, family-style table you'll tuck into a rainbow of locally grown, plant-based fare and freshly blended juices that are as colourful as the lingering conversation.
Of course, body and soul can't flourish off a cocktail of yoga and green juice alone. Off the mat, you'll kick back on the beach - there's no better way to start the morning than with sand between your toes - or dip into one of two swimming pools. You have the freedom to switch off, socialise and simply enjoy being.
Not feeling confident about travelling right now? Don't worry; we get it. If you'd rather stick with staycations for summer 2020, the prize will still be valid next year too. Pressure just isn't the style at Mojo Rising.
Full terms and conditions can be found here.
