A personal retreat is created for you according to your needs for rest, relaxation and healing. A personal driver meets you at Burgas airport and drives you one hour to Nedyalsko, where Emma, an Israeli scholar, artist, Rabbi, spiritual caregiver and poet will attend to your spirit. Her partner, Ben Avi, a world traveler from America and she grow their own food in their spectacular garden. While she leads activities, he treats guests to three delicious and filling home cooked meals a day. The transformative nature of the retreats must be emphasized. This is a place where brokenness is welcomed, can be talked about and expressed while in the healing environment of nature and health, with Emma as a wise and gentle steward for internal growth. It is a haven for artists of all kinds, with peaceful space and creative materials abounding.

​

A word about the food: Bread is made from a 100-year-old sourdough starter, but born every morning afresh. Granola is served with homemade vegan yogurt and fresh fruit salad for breakfast, usually under the Linden Tree in the garden.

Lunch is fresh bread with homemade vegan cheese and dips which titillate the senses and fresh cut garden vegetables.

​

Dinner is a surprise every evening. Served under the berries of the Linden tree, surrounded by the lush vegetable, fruit, flower garden in which much of the food is grown. In the center of the garden, a rotunda greenhouse reigns, tomatoes, potatoes, and many other delights flourish in the heat. The food is varied, delicious and filling. Mushrooms with veggies on rice. Always with abundance and a multi layered taste. Peanut and eggplant stew. Pad Thai with fresh peanuts and lime. Amazing salads with sprouted lentils or garden vegetables. Regular meal times add to the healthy atmosphere. Fresh berries and fruit trees dot the grounds. Tea of every herbal fragrance is grown, just pick your own blend.

There is a lake just a five-minute walk from the farm, with Storks, herons, starlings, wild rooted trees and yes, a Loch Ness monster (actually a plethora of big fish). There’s a forest across the way, through sheep pastures.

Emma and Ben Avi’s art work of mosaic and painting can be seen throughout the complex, of a family home, and two units for couples or individuals, with more planned for the future.

Emma, who is a pleasure to be with, will do healing with each guest in a personal way. If it is spiritual study of Kabbalah that you seek, one can study the mysteries and secrets here. If it is guided imagery to cope with personal development, she is an expert. Emma has created multiple sets of art illustrated cards with spiritual wisdom. Some adorn one of the units.

She can also lead her guests in physical exercises in order to heal broken body and psyche.

Laughter is as abundant as the roses and birds in the garden.

Emma has researched and discovered the fascination of Bulgarian petroglyphs. She will offer her guests a tour of carvings of the sunrise, best to experience at the actual sunrise.

The visit is intriguing and healing.
