Heal and be cured – 5 days in the nature
A healing journey in the forest
We went as
a group of
9 friends,
but only 3
came back
My friends were murdered by my side, I came back with the question that echoed in my head: Why did I survive but my friends didn’t?
Come and
get a hug
We recruited the best professionals and turned the Secret Forest complex into a professional shell – supportive and embracing – with a team of Israeli therapists in a natural regeneration space
Body & Soul
We believe that our soul has the ability to heal itself. We combine mindfulness workshops, alongside empowering conversation circles with professional therapists and facilitators. Daily wellness with yoga and meditations, to create a different experience that will bring about renewal of consciousness, ignite the passion and light for life and leave here recharged for life.

The location
In the heart of a nature reserve in the mountains of Cyprus, near a small village surrounded by a forest and a flowing stream, resides a unique space that is hundreds of years old with a spring of water in its center with healthy minerals which flow into hot pools in a large and pampering spa complex. In this paradise, a little far from the war in Israel, but not too distant from home - you will re-gather the strength to cope and win!
