Nature Breaks for Muslim sisters
A chance to unwind and reflect in nature and with other sisters
If you have been going through a tough time or simply need to get away from every day life, you can join the community and book a room at Cortijo Halima. This is not an organised retreat, but a chance to spend time in nature, join in on some communal tasks and have time for prayer and recovery.
Simple living and quiet is sometimes exactly what we need to reconnect with Allah and with ourselves. To find the strength we need to re-engage with life.
We are offering these space fisabillah so all sisters can have a chance to attend. There is a basic charge of $150/£100 per week for meal and power costs and then we will ask a donation amount towards maintenace and upkeep of the property. Whatever you feel inspired to give, either before or after your stay. Suggested minimum donation is $75/£50.
Getaway from the business of life.
The intention is to provide a safe and caring space for sisters and to live according to Islamic Sufi principles of loving-kindness, helpfulness and taqwa.
During the week you will have time to:
Have time to yourself to pray, walk in nature or work online if you need to.
Engage in some community tasks such as cooking and cleaning as part of the team. Tasks are fairly shared out and take up no more than two hours a day.
Go to town with the group twice a week for supplies (if you want to).
Join the Orgiva community for Juma prayer.
Opportunities to book a massage and other therapies.
November, January, February, March
Practical things:
Each stay is from Saturday to Saturday. You are responsible for booking your own flights.
Taxis can be arranged for you from Malaga or Granada airport. Depending on how many sisters are coming and what time, this cost can be shared between you. You can also hire your own car and drive.
The centre is on the mountain and not in near walking distance of the shops (Town is about half an hour walk) so there will be occasional trips to town that you can join.
The cost is for your own room. If you'd like to come with a friend or family member, shared rooms are also available. There is a maximum of three rooms available.
There is wifi available at the property.
