About The Retreat
2024 Dates
30 June – 6 July
22 – 28 September
Are you feeling rundown, disconnected and lacking in energy?
If you’re feeling uninspired by your daily routine, if you’re eager to release the past and embrace the present fully, if you yearn to shed self-limiting beliefs and unconscious habits that hinder your dreams, then this retreat is for you.
Your Time to Thrive is a personalised retreat led by expert facilitators Kim Chandler and Sofia Abalos. Designed to bring about profound inner peace and healing, every activity is tailored to your needs.
You will be gently guided through your inner landscape towards a more integrated, grounded and uplifted sense of wellbeing, free from self-sabotaging beliefs and habits that may be preventing you from attracting healthy, loving relationships.
There will be 1 person per room (a maximum of ten places available) with all meals and yoga included, plus one-to-one check-ins with the facilitators every day.
Our expert facilitators will guide you in changing your mindset, fostering authenticity, and conquering life’s challenges. Experience inner transformation within an intimate group setting, surrounded by peaceful surroundings.
Enjoy rest, daily support, and nourishing plant-based cuisine sourced locally. Join this retreat for profound clarity and transformation, gaining the tools you need for future healing and depart feeling unburdened, vibrant, inspired, and with a clear perspective
A relaxing, rejuvenating escape you’ve been longing for with personal care from start to finish. Take a refreshing dive into yoga and holistic treatments, journal your dreams, eat heartily, make friends with like-minded guests, stroll through ancient olive groves, tan by the pool or stretch out in a hammock and enjoy panoramic views.
Our retreat home is Kaliyoga, located in the Biosphere Reserve of Las Alpujarras, a region with strong associations for seekers of health and wellbeing, named locally as Little Tibet after a Tibetan Mahayana Buddhist monastery that was founded here in 1982.

The journey of each person, from their arrival to departure, fills me with gratitude. Together with Sofia, a remarkable therapist, we aim to lead individuals on an inner journey towards improved mental, physical, and emotional wellbeing.”
Sofia Abalos
An experienced holistic practitioner, Sofia specializes in Mizan Therapy and Systematic Kinesiology, addressing root causes of imbalances. Mizan Therapy nurtures the body, particularly addressing menstrual, reproductive, and digestive issues, while fostering a connection to femininity.

Why Sofia loves this work:
“Finding & opening up root cause imbalances brings lightness, vitality & health back into your life, heart and body, moving deeply to facilitate inner transformation.
I admire Kim‘s capacity to connect deeply and her ability to create a feeling of security and togetherness within the group. Together we aim to support participants to discover what they need to lead happier, healthier and more fulfilling lives”
