ABOUT

Breathe Istria was born from a deep desire to create a space for restoration, learning, and connection — a space where the body can slow down, the mind can soften, and something deeper within can begin to reawaken.

​

Nestled in the heart of Istria, Croatia, this land offers something quietly powerful. We are just 20 minutes from the sea, with views of Mount Učka rising in the distance, and surrounded by old-growth forests, open fields, and walking paths that wind through a landscape still held in its natural rhythm. There is a stillness here, a depth in the earth, that gently invites people back to themselves.

​

As founders who have spent much of our lives living and working in busy urban environments, we know the cost of constant doing — and the importance of remembering how to be. Breathe Istria is our response to that remembering: a place where people can come to reconnect with the body, with nature, and with a more spacious way of living and relating.

​

Here, we host retreats and trainings that bring together bodywork, somatic awareness, and conscious presence. Our current offerings include:

• Foundation and postgraduate retreats in Craniosacral Therapy

• Womb Surround Process (Ray Castellino Method)

• Collaborative courses with the Craniosacral Collaborative

• Silent retreats and meditation practices with The Art of Living​

​

Whether you’re a practitioner seeking to deepen your skills, someone looking to reset and ground, or simply curious to explore a more embodied way of being — we welcome you.

​

This is a place to exhale.
To listen deeply.
To come home — to yourself.
