Transformational Well-Being Retreat
RECONNECT • RECHARGE • RELAX
with Max Strom
October, 10 - 17, 2026 • Saturday to Saturday
Soul Valley, Sardinia, Italy
Discover a magical sanctuary on the island of Sardinia - located in the south of the island - just 45 minutes from Cagliari Airport. Enjoy one week in nurturing beauty and transformation. Connect through breath and community, and indulge in healthy and delicious Mediterranean cuisine.
This retreat is more than a getaway; it is a path to emotional healing and personal growth. Using his signature method – Inner Axis – Max will guide you every step of the way with sessions of gentle movement, healing breathwork, and visualizations. These practices are specifically designed to alleviate stress, anxiety and enhance sleep, nurturing both body and mind.
In addition to the movement and breathwork practices, you will be offered insightful lectures and can explore self-expression through writing. A retreat with Max Strom is a unique chance to connect with a global community of like-minded individuals in an atmosphere of friendship and solidarity.
Experience the magical beauty of Sardinia to the full, with its green hills, olive trees, herbs, flowers, and starry nights.
This exclusive Autumn Retreat with Max is limited to 20 people only.
The retreat center will be shared with another yoga and meditation group.
All classes will be taught in English.
Requirements
For the optimal retreat experience, it is important that each participant has practiced with Max Strom before, either in person or via his online workshops. If this is not possible, you are asked to practice at least five times with his 16-minute sequence on YouTube called Instantly Release Anxiety: Max Strom’s 16-Minute Breathe to Heal Practice prior to committing to this retreat. We trust this requirement will be fulfilled by the start of the retreat.
Please contact Tanja directly at tanja@yogatanja.com with any questions or concerns.

Soul Valley is more than a retreat venue – it’s a space to breathe, reflect, and reconnect with yourself and nature. The pool is perfect for relaxing and soaking up the Sardinian sun.

We offer double, twin, and a limited number of single rooms / cottages, all with en-suite bathrooms, Wi-Fi, AC, vegan body care products, and interiors designed with heart and soul. The rooms and cottages are located up to a 10-minute walk from the Practice Room. Soul Valley provides the group with a number of golf carts for transporting luggage and for anyone who may have difficulty walking on the unpaved roads.
Food and drinks
Meals are nourishing, seasonal, vegetarian, or vegan, and lovingly prepared with ingredients sourced from their orchards and local farmers. The bar serves the real-deal Italian coffee and fresh teas. Breakfast, lunch, & dinner are included in your stay. Soul Valley is alcohol free, it’s prohibited to bring alcohol.
