November is a great time of year on Mallorca. We’ve come out of October, generally the wettest month, and temperatures are perfect for outdoor adventures and enjoying nature. We’re also loving all of the fresh, autumnal produce, perfect for making warming, nourishing meals for cosy evenings in. Here’s what we’re up to this month on our gorgeous island.
EXPLORE
The cooler weather means some great hikes are back on the cards. This season we’re tackling the different stages of the ‘Ruta de Pedra en Sec’ (the Dry Stone Route), which stretches from Andratx to Pollença. There are 8-stages and an additional 6 variants covering around 170km, with refuges at the end of each stage to spend the night. Cobbled paths, beautiful townships, dry stone walls, and stunning mountain, landscape and sea views make it easy to see why this iconic path along the Serra de Tramuntana mountain range is so famous. To take any hassles out of planning your hike enlisting an experienced guide is a great option. Nourish highly recommends Nicky Hanganu at Zig Zag Mallorca. www.zigzagmallorca.com
EAT
Nourish recently spent a life-changing week at holistic fitness retreat The Body Camp in Sencelles, and we deeply regret not being able to pack Chef Ben Whale in our suitcase home so that we can savour his plant-based treats forevermore! Thankfully the new revised edition of The Body Camp Food Bible is fresh off the press. Described as “the only plant-based recipe book you’ll ever need”, all of Chef Ben’s amazing food is brought together in this fantastic cookery book. It encompasses everything you need to know about plant-based eating, including store cupboard essentials, soaking and sprouting, fermenting and all his classic breakfasts, mains, desserts, shakes, treats plus lots of extras. We highly recommend you order yours online now! www.thebodycamp.com/shop/
RESTORE
Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing and is based around the transfer of life force energy from the practitioner’s palms to their patient. If your ‘life force energy’ is low, then you are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, you are more capable of being happy and healthy. Reiki treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind and spirit, in turn promoting relaxation and feelings of peace, security and wellbeing.
Caterina Gouws is a qualified Master Level Reiki Practitioner here on the island. She has a desire and love to help people, wildlife and nature, and offers 30-minute, 45-minute and 1 hour in-person and distance sessions to clients of all ages, including animals. Caterina also offers Reiki for businesses using a Reiki Box. Reiki energy is beamed into the business’s Reiki Box with the intention of manifesting all the goals (set by you) contained within it. Additionally, Caterina performs Reiki with nature. Reiki energy can stimulate the growth and overall health of vegetation, as well as improve the quality of the water used to nourish it. Distance Reiki sessions are available for all plant life- from house plants, to gardens to forests. www.stillness-speaks.space
