ABOUT MALABAR
At Malabar, our philosophy is one of offering holistic solutions for connection, revival and wellbeing.
Our retreats were conceived as a haven for people looking for an escape from the continual pressure of daily life. We appreciate from personal experience, the need at some point in our lives, to step into a different space.
-
To take a few days or more, where you actually do come back feeling rested, healthy, genuinely reinvigorated and ready to take on your life with positivity, energy and strength.
-
To experience something that changes your world, those rare moments that can subtly redirect your life.
-
To take something away with you that you can easily incorporate into your day to day - to keep the benefits of your retreat well beyond the length of your stay.
Our retreats are designed to be rigorous and profound in terms of effect - and yet to be experienced within a personal and serene environment. We believe in a personal, low profile approach hosting no more than 12 people at a time, to ensure each guest receives proper attention and guidance.
Malabar retreats offer a chance to realign yourself in places where the primal energies of the world still hold sway.....Rest, rebalance, reconnect, reorientate.
WHAT & WHO WE ARE
Malabar Retreats is the creation of Bibi Morelli Schofield.
Malabar was born of a belief in the beneficial effects of these combined elements: Lu Jong, meditation, digital detox, silence, therapeutic bodywork, the balance of time spent in nature and the deep immersion into yourself which our retreats permit.
Bibi Morelli Schofield spent 15 years working as a banking lawyer and in business in London, Madrid and Milan. Bibi spent a decade living and working in and around Zimbabwe and Mozambique, in largely undeveloped areas, rich in nature and tranquillity. A subtle appreciation of the indigenous environment and an undiscovered world of nature and wildlife was revealed to her. This triggered the beginning of a fundamental shift in her values. A few years later, after experiencing the profound benefits of Lu Jong practice, Bibi certified as a Lu Jong teacher in the tradition of renowned Master Tulku Lobsang. Priorities evolved and crystallised into a new direction - to bring the benefits of time spent in nature, Lu Jong practice, meditation and therapeutic bodywork to a wider audience, collaborating with inspirational practitioners in a variety of enchanting locations worldwide. This shaped the mission of Malabar Retreats.
