Before you come

The workshops are done in a ‘retreat’ setting, meaning leaving your everyday life behind as much as possible, to focus on your healing & experience. This is an invitation to turn inwards. Please try to arrive fresh and to leave behind commitments. Being fully available to the process is the key to have effective results. The workshop is a relaxed, joyful process with space for silence & music, nature & meditation.

 

 

The Place – Tree of Life Center at Almog Village

The workshops are taking place at the Tree of Life – Dead Sea Rejuvenation Center, located in Almog Holiday & Spa Village. The village is a green oasis, rich with shady trees and chill out spots, located within the silent desert mountains, overlooking the Dead Sea.

We are located:

·         1-4 hrs flight from most European countries

·         40 min drive from Tel Aviv airport. 90 min from central Tel Aviv

·         10 min drive from the Dead Sea beaches & Qumran site.

·         40 min drive from Jerusalem

 

 

Traveling to Israel

We are happy to help with traveling arrangements. Ask for our Jerusalem & Dead Sea tours.

 

Enjoy the Best of the Holy Land:

·         Soaking & free-floating in the Dead Sea, the lowest place on earth, well known for its rich minerals, high level of oxygen & healing properties. We are going to the beach as a group once on each workshop. You can also go in a smaller group on your free time. It’s 10 min drive away.

·         Visiting Qumran ancient Essene site - where the Dead Sea scrolls were found.

·         Visiting Jerusalem 's holy sites (40 min) as an add-on tour. We help arrange a half day tour with a guide to show you around. Usually workshop participants group together to fill up a 4 or 15 seat taxi-shuttle. Best timing to go would be on the day before or after your workshop. It is highly recommended to stay in the village throughout the workshop.

·         Tel Aviv (90 min) – Voted one of the world’s top ten cities of interest.

 

No need to panic with traveling to Israel...  We are located 40min from the Airport. The Dead Sea is away from the Middle East conflict turbulences. Even at time of security concerns, it is a safe and silent oasis with powerful natural energies.

 

 

How to get there

Flying in to Tel Aviv Airport (TLV), It is 2 hr flight from Greece, 4 hr from London.

   b.   By car

From Tel Aviv:  about 1:20 hours drive. Almog is right off highway 1 that connects Tel Aviv - Jerusalem & the Dead sea. The right turning to Almog is as you go down towards the sea.
