Reverence and Stillness Retreat

 This retreat is a private family-and-friends journey, designed to explore Taichi and mindfulness through travel and shared reflection. Although it is not open to public registration, it reflects the heart of Mindful Taichi’s mission:  cultivating health, reverence, and stillness through embodied experience. 

 In the rhythm of Andalusia’s light and shadow, we move with awareness and rest in stillness, discovering the harmony of reverence and peace. This seven-day journey blends daily Taichi practice, cultural immersion, and mindful reflection, transforming travel into an experience of body–mind unity.

• Daily Morning Taichi — Breath, relaxation, and inner awareness
• Cultural Immersion — The Alcázar of Seville and the Alhambra of Granada
• Evening Mindfulness and Reflection — Gentle meditation and gratitude circle 
• Nature and Culture in Harmony — Experiencing the Taichi spirit through beauty and history

                            “The heart is governed by reverence, and also by stillness.
               When one is reverent and still, one naturally preserves inner clarity.”
                         — Chen Xin, Illustrated Theory of Chen-Style Taijiquan 

Reverence is the beginning of awareness; stillness is the home of return.
This journey weaves together mindful movement, cultural exploration, and quiet reflection — inviting each participant to embody the essence of Taichi: the unity of body and mind, movement and stillness.
