About us
Hello, nice to meet you!
We put at your service the essence of our journeys through different teachings and techniques in the search for the Real, the Absolute, in form of our Retreats.
ADVAITA Meditation (Non-Duality) is an ancient teaching, an attitude of life, which points towards the Truth. Remaining more and more in peace of mind, allows us to first discover and then learn to live from our true identity, what WE really ARE, AWARENESS, which is All That Is. Sincerely, we consider that learning True Meditation is one of the most important and most valuable things you can do in your life.
We offer DETOX Retreats to better understand how our body Works and to be able to take better care of it. The health of our physical body is not trivial, in fact, it is vital because it allows us to enjoy the experience of this life.
Our Retreats are intimate and our attention is personalized as the capacity is 5-6 people maximum.
The Retreats are enriching experiences; they allow you to broaden your horizons, become more aware, get away from stress and experience inner calm in a relaxed, close, pleasant, and loving atmosphere.
Looking forward to welcoming you here with us! 💕
Eduardo and Bea

Natural Medicine, Biodanza and Advaita Meditation have come together in me, merging over the years into one holistic experience.
For more than 40 years I have been accompanied by the deeply felt interest to discover the mysteries of life. I first graduated as a doctor in Argentina. Over time I felt the need to prevent diseases and not just relieve the symptoms, as happens in most medical treatments in general. So instead of specializing as a surgeon I decided to dedicate myself to Naturopathic Medicine which convinced me with its wise, natural and preventive approach and its trust in the intelligence of our body (and I am still convinced of it).
Since then I have been a specialist in detoxification and fasting. These are resources that human beings have always had, the wonderful capacity of the body to maintain and also to recover its health. I want to highlight the practice of detoxification as a very beneficial natural treatment that should be incorporated into the life of all people. That’s why we offer DETOX retreats; their contribution to a greater Well-being is huge.
I came to Spain more than 20 years ago to go one step further: from the physical body to the emotional world. I was then working as a doctor and as a Biodanza facilitator, a very effective method appreciated by hundreds of thousands of people around the world to open us to our emotions and sensations and thus to the Present Moment.
My spiritual search accompanied this entire process in parallel. It was at first with texts by Krishnamurti that caught my attention when I was barely 20 years old, then I practiced Yoga and Tai-Chi.
Over time, Buddhist meditation brought me closer to understanding the existence of an Awareness that “Is Everything”. Practicing Vipassana I achieved small experiences of Silence that awakened me to the Beingness that we are, but without being able to remain in it yet. It was not until I discovered Advaita Meditation (“Non-Duality”), in the presence of a Hindu master, that the sensation of Beingness manifested in a more stable way, allowing me to experience Peace that remained despite the thoughts and sensations that called my attention.
Together with my partner Bea, we offer Advaita Meditation and DETOX Retreats to contribute to more Awareness and more Well-being in our daily lives. Welcome!

I was born in Germany, to a father who was very active and successful in the business world, while my mother was dedicated to yoga and foot reflexology. I have always felt these two parts within myself: the mental-mundane part and the spiritual part in search of the Real, the Absolute.
I came to Spain (Catalonia, near Barcelona) when I was 29 and I have stayed. It’s a wonderful place to live. Until I was over 45, I was fully involved as an executive in the multinational world, in Marketing and Communication, combining this with raising my children (a gift from life!). In 2011 I carried out the studies of Foot Reflexology, driven by that deep desire to do something to contribute to alleviate people’s suffering.
The background of spiritual search has accompanied me throughout my life: as a child I was active in the parish, as a teenager I started to practice Yoga, I was interested in New Age and the paranormal, I was introduced to Reiki, attended channeling sessions, prayers, mantra singing… I have attended meditation courses of many kinds (vipassana, shamata, 10 days in silence, visualization, Mindfulness), in form of Christian retreats, Buddhist retreats, za-zen and Pranayama training retreats in India.
The “inner thirst”, as I say, has always been my compass. It made me continue searching for decades because I sensed that there had to be something more, less “paraphernalia”, something purer, simpler, Absolute, the Truth with a capital T.
Finally, I discovered Non-Duality, Advaita Vedanta. I began to read Nisargadatta and Ramana Maharshi… my mind did not quite get it, but it resonated within me, which made me continue and go deeper. With Advaita, now with Eduardo, I feel that my search has borne fruit; Advaita speaks to us of the Ultimate Truth, it is a philosophy of life, here I have found the answer to my eternal question “Who am I”. Now, I feel that I have arrived home!
From my own experience, what I can say is that what we are looking for is located just “before” thinking (so to speak). Awareness or the Sensation of Beingness is before mental activity. We must direct our attention “beyond” mental activity, entering into that Space that opens between thought and thought.
Now I am delving deeper into the practice of living maintaining the Sensation of Beingness. Mental understanding is important but what really makes the difference is one’s own experience! And not just once and then live from the memory, but every day, every moment anew.
So, here we are, Eduardo and I, at your service, offering efficient Advaita Meditation and DETOX Retreats to humbly contribute to more awareness and well-being in the world. You will be very welcome! 🌸💕🌷
