Full Moon Wellness Retreats At One Belvedere Tuscany and Locanda Le Piazze
- Lifestyle, Sustainable Living
At One Belvedere Tuscany, the Full Moon becomes a moment to slow down, reconnect with oneself and follow the natural rhythm of the surroundings. The Full Moon Wellness Retreats are seasonal experiences created to invite guests into a space of wellbeing, presence and connection.
Each gathering is different, shaped around a specific theme, atmosphere and special experience chosen for that particular Full Moon. Time is dedicated to giving deep meaning to every event, bringing each Full Moon to life through its energy, seasonality and the character of the evening.
The concept grew from the experience developed at sister property Locanda Le Piazze, where the AnaiSpa team has created a holistic approach to wellbeing through the collaboration of different practitioners and disciplines. Yoga, guided meditation, Reiki and the sounds of Tibetan singing bowls come together in a harmonious journey, complemented each time by an activity inspired by the theme of the evening.
What Makes Full Moon Wellness Retreats Different?
At Locanda Le Piazze, the retreat experience is shaped through collaboration. Laura guides the yoga practice, Valeria leads the meditation, and Anna introduces guests to the sounds and vibrations of Tibetan singing bowls, accompanied by crystal therapy. Together, they create a space where movement and stillness, listening and sharing can naturally come together.
The intention is not to repeat the same sequence each time. Every Full Moon is approached as its own occasion, with attention given to its meaning and the season in which it appears. This becomes the starting point for creating the atmosphere, theme and special activity of the gathering.
Each retreat is also shaped with careful attention to rhythm and atmosphere, allowing the evening to unfold in a way that feels natural and unforced. Guests are given space to engage with the theme at their own pace, creating a more personal connection to the moment and the surroundings.
Full Moon Wellness Retreats in the Heart of Chianti Classico
The first Full Moon Wellness Retreat at One Belvedere Tuscany brought this experience into the natural setting of the estate, surrounded by gardens, vineyards and olive groves, where nature becomes an integral part of the ritual.
Set between Florence and Siena, One Belvedere Tuscany is a place dedicated to a more conscious way of experiencing a stay. Its Soul Aligned philosophy brings mind, body and nature into connection, making the Full Moon a particularly meaningful occasion to pause, listen and reconnect with a more authentic sense of self.
As evening falls, the Tuscan landscape becomes part of the experience. Moonlight, the quiet of the countryside and the open spaces of the estate create a natural setting for an evening dedicated to wellbeing and presence.
The setting gives the retreat a distinct sense of place. Rather than separating wellness from the surrounding environment, the experience allows the landscape to become part of the evening itself, supporting moments of movement, stillness and reflection.
How Do Full Moon Wellness Retreats Support Mindful Living?
One of the defining elements of the Full Moon Wellness Retreats is that no two gatherings are intended to be exactly the same. Each Full Moon is dedicated to a different theme and includes a special activity or experience developed specifically for that occasion.
The retreat activities are carefully planned and coordinated so that the theme, practices and atmosphere work naturally together. Depending on the evening, guests may create bracelets with natural stones, spend time painting the surrounding landscape on organic canvases to take home as a personal keepsake, or enjoy herbal teas prepared according to Ayurvedic principles and inspired by the different doshas.
These creative and sensory moments complement yoga, meditation, Reiki and sound, bringing guests closer to natural materials, the landscape and the evening’s theme. The aim is to create meaningful memories that continue beyond the retreat, whether through mindful movement, reflection, creativity, sound or a shared experience shaped with care throughout.
Wellness, Nature and Connection
The Full Moon Wellness Retreats reflect One Belvedere Tuscany and Locanda Le Piazze’s vision of wellbeing as something deeply connected to place. Time spent in nature, caring for the body, moments of stillness and shared experiences become part of a wider sense of wellbeing.
The Full Moon offers a reason to come together and slow down. The landscape does the rest.
Through mindful movement, meditation, Reiki, sound, crystal therapy and seasonal rituals, each gathering invites guests to create space for listening and to reconnect with their own natural rhythm.
What makes these retreats meaningful is the attention given to every detail. Each event is shaped to reflect the energy and seasonality of its Full Moon, ensuring that the experience remains personal, considered and different each time.
