Yoga Lessons
Develop a strong body with a balanced mind, while cultivating your inner strength and radiance. Our yoga classes are offered to all guests in our holistic spa with the aroma of fresh herbs wafting through, or outside on our yoga platform that is completely immersed in our shaded forest. Private lessons in a secluded garden are also available upon request. Cultivate strength, flexibility and stamina complete with relaxation and meditation for a much deeper experience in reconnecting with yourself.
Guided Meditation Walks & Forest Bathing
Beyond the gardens, Borgo Santo Pietro’s Meditation Walk takes guests out into Valle Serena and the wilderness to explore 100 acres of forest. Not simply a walk in the woods, these walks are a conscious, contemplative practice of being immersed in the sights, sounds and smells of the forest led by a meditation guide. Unique to the property, the estate also includes an immense lush forest that sprawls across Valley Serena in the Tuscan countryside. The Merse spring-water river runs throughout the dense woods providing refreshing and shaded river swimming for nature lovers. Enjoy forest bathing in the Borgo wilderness as another way to escape into the wild and connect with the environmental surroundings.
Gong Sound Bath
The powerful healing vibrations of the gong are highly cleansing, moving through your body, psyche and energy field to remove stagnation and emotional blockages while promoting transformation. It leaves you feeling relieved afterwards as the gloom and worries go away. Gong meditations are offered as a means to experience your self through meditation and sound. Each class will begin with light yoga and breathwork, to warm up your body and calm your mind as preparation for a seated guided meditation.
Herb Walks & Garden Walks
As part of our hands-on activities dedicated to teaching guests how to be one with nature and encourage self-care, our guided herb walks empower participants with knowledge of the extraordinary resources that are the plants growing around the estate throughout the year. Under the guidance of our head of vegetables and herbs, you will identify and forage wild herbs and understand their medicinal properties. As for the garden walks, our gardener will accompany interested guests on a walk around the gardens of Borgo, where they familiarize themselves with various plantations. What better way to experience the wondrous kitchen herbs and garden greens and discover their benefits?
