LIVING WELL
A retreat to rediscover that living well is the true key to longevity.
22nd to 25th October.
In Sardinia, longevity is a way of life, time spent consciously, in harmony with the environment and those around us.
Living Well is a four-day experience designed to help you slow down, observe and reconnect with what truly nourishes the quality of your days. A shared journey, in which wellbeing develops from the balance between body, environment and pace of life.
The experience takes place from 22 to 25 October and is limited to a small number of participants.
A guided experience
Living Well is led by Giuseppe Ferraro, a medical anthropologist with an interdisciplinary background spanning health anthropology, sociology and education. For years, he has been conducting field research in Sardinia’s Blue Zones, exploring longevity as a biocultural and relational phenomenon.
The programme
The programme brings together gentle movement, listening and sharing practices, experiences in nature and space for individual reflection.
Planned experiences include:
• chi kung and walking tai chi practices
• moments of mindfulness and body awareness
• Gallura regional cooking lessons
• tasting of local products
• nature walks and walks inspired by the shepherds’ lifestyle
• stargazing session
• circle time and shared dialogue
• deep relaxation practices
• individual sessions with Giuseppe Ferraro
Each activity is offered as an invitation rather than an obligation, leaving room for personal reflection and interaction with the place.
The Location
Living Well is hosted by Gallicantu, a retreat in Luogosanto, in the heart of rural Gallura. Lovingly restored after years of neglect, the rural retreat is surrounded by over three hectares of Mediterranean vegetation, granite rocks and centuries-old olive trees. Here, the landscape is not simply a backdrop, but an integral part of the experience: it becomes part of the days, shapes their rhythm, and invites you to leave the hustle and bustle of everyday life behind.
