Day 1 💚 Opening the Journey in Anaga
The first day of our Reiki & Yoga Retreat in Tenerife began with a truly special feeling. A group of beautiful souls gathered together, each bringing their own intention, openness, and quiet curiosity for the journey ahead. Our first destination was the breathtaking Anaga Rural Park, one of the most ancient and magical places on the island. As we walked along the mountain trails, we were surrounded by lush green forests, wild plants, and countless blooming flowers. The air felt fresh and alive, and every step seemed to invite us deeper into nature’s embrace. During the hike we paused often: to breathe, to observe, and simply to feel the beauty around us. The mountains of Anaga have a very gentle yet powerful energy, and it was the perfect place to begin opening our retreat space. At one point we discovered something unexpected and very special - a small altar made of crystals, carefully arranged among the stones in the mountains. It felt like a quiet gift from the universe, waiting for us there. We gathered around this natural altar and held a meditation together. In the silence of the mountains, surrounded by crystals, flowers, and ancient trees, the space became deeply peaceful. It was a moment of grounding, connection, and gratitude - for nature, for the journey ahead, and for the souls who came together for this retreat. The first day gently reminded us of something simple and powerful: sometimes the most profound beginnings happen in silence, in nature, and in the presence of open hearts.
