5 Incredible Places To Rest And Meditate

We know that we can rest and meditate in nearby places: a park and even in our room. But today in this your health space, we want to give you a direct ticket to five incredible places. Wonderful scenarios that make us dream of its calm, its balance and its peace.

Would you like to meet them?

1. The beauty of Sunken Alcoven Garden, New Zealand

Can you imagine being able to be sitting, resting in that comfortable central circle? What a beautiful place to meditate. The calm is total, the wind is fresh and with a delicious smell of flowers. Silence and peace reign here .

It is a very special garden that was built in 1960. They call it the “hidden treasure” and it is found in a hollow of a New Zealand reserve. Year after year, it is reformed with more vegetation, more trees …

It is one of those incredible places for everyone to relax for a few hours getting in touch with nature. It is very far away, without a doubt, but if you ever have the opportunity, do not hesitate, get to know this garden.

2. Meditate in Koregaon Park, Pune, India.

When we talk about scenarios for meditation, India stands out as one of those essential countries.

One of those incredible places that is worth visiting even once in a lifetime. We are only 15 minutes by plane from Bombay. This place is an oasis surrounded by nature and tranquility. Like a little paradise of calm and mysticism.

Koreagon Park is truly a place for meditation. There we have the opportunity to sign up for various courses to learn to breathe, to practice yoga or traditional relaxation techniques.

3. Break in white and blue: Santorini, Greece

Another one of those incredible places that seem to be taken from a dream of peace. We are in Santorini, a small circular archipelago formed by volcanic islands in the Aegean Sea, which draws a whole paradise of relaxing colors,  wonderful temperature and peaceful atmosphere.

You also have small natural caves, white stone that meets an incredible blue sky, where the sea or the quiet pools give you the opportunity to get away from the bustle of the cities.

Its geology is unique throughout the world. Most of the houses are white, with a very Mediterranean and oriental air at the same time, an idyllic destination that always invites you to rest.

4. Discover the Highlands of Scotland

If you are looking for nature, history and mysticism, Scotland is your destination, and especially the Highlands. Areas such as Aberdeen, Angus or Stirling, will offer you a refuge to discover. Mountains, rivers, lakes and all those old castles that tell so many battles in their demolished but imposing walls.

It is a different setting that also invites us to relax and to that inner life where nature always helps us to get in touch with ourselves.

The relief is very varied and the area to discover of the Highlands is really wide. You will discover their Celtic past and their way of life previously linked to the land and livestock.

If you go in winter you will find very low temperatures. Summers and springs are truly evocative, the temperatures are mild and the land is filled with incredible flowers.

If you travel to Scotland in the month of September, you will find yourself at that time when festivals and Celtic music are heard almost in every corner. Perfect also to rest.

5. The Retreat from the Middle Way. Loei, Thailand

Have you ever heard of this place? We are in the northwest of Thailand and very close to the Phu Ruea national park.

It is a very mountainous region where nature shines with its maximum artisan splendor, creating a micro-world of tranquility and peace.

There are hiking and relaxation areas, as well as incredible gardens where you can meditate while listening to a gentle waterfall fall around us. A fabulous place where we can learn a Tibetan Buddhist practice that allows us to relax body and mind.

There are also some small cabins where we can spend a few days, but yes, men are separated from women and very strict guidelines are followed regarding food and exercise. They teach us to take care of ourselves and relax. An experience that is interesting to try for just a few days, and then quietly visit this evocative corner of the world.

These places are sometimes out of our reach. They are those incredible places that we can visit once or twice in our lives. Unique experiences that are not forgotten.

But without a doubt, we can also learn to meditate and relax in much closer settings : our room, the beach, a garden …

The need to disconnect and relax is basic in the human being, hence we must practice it habitually in the simplest way that we can.
