Fasting & Hiking in Mallorca

Actually, all I wanted from this week was to see a few kilos less on the scales. Instead, I'm going home with something far more valuable: new clarity, new energy and the feeling of having come closer to my own life again.

For me, what you offer is much more than fasting and hiking. Of course it's about fasting, movement and health. But it's just as much about personal growth, honest encounters and the right impulses at the right time. With your special way of being, you create a space where you can let go, physically, mentally and emotionally.

The hikes through the beautiful countryside, the conversations, your coaching and the atmosphere within the group made this week something truly special. Often there are only a few people who get you to look at things from a new perspective. You are definitely one of them.

I came to give my body a rest. I left with a lighter heart, a clearer mind and the feeling of having set an important course for the rest of my life. For that, I thank you with all my heart.

This week wasn't simply a break. It was a turning point. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who doesn't just want to fast but truly wants to change something for themselves.

Dear Marion, thank you for your wonderful guidance. I've enjoyed many offerings like this before, but yours is a 12 on a scale of 1 to 10. The hikes, the lovely houses we stay in, the soups and the way you guide the fasting are wonderful.

But what makes your programme unique are quite different things: the loving and professional way you guide everything from the first meeting to the last, the great yoga and qigong sessions, the thoughtful little moments, like drawing tarot cards now and then, beautiful mantras or small tasks for reflecting on yourself.

All the processes that get set in motion in a week like this, whether physical or mental, you have been through them yourself, and with you one feels held at a deep level. Thank you, and warm wishes.

Thank you for this wonderful week with its varied and long hikes. I really liked our finca, it had a lovely atmosphere, and meditating by candlelight in our seminar room with the beautifully decorated table was especially lovely for me.

The combination of fasting and Mallorca also worked very well, because fasting made my senses more receptive to the vivid colours of the lemon and orange trees and to their scent. I was able to take them in much more intensely.

I felt truly accepted and well looked after by you. We got on together in such a harmonious way. I'd do it again any time!

The fasting and hiking week with Marion on Mallorca was an exceptionally lovely time for me, because it nourished body, heart and soul: the varied hikes with breathtaking views, the fresh juice from the oranges in our gardens, the delicious fasting soups in the evening, qigong in the morning, the many tips about fasting and singing mantras together.

But what makes all of this special is Marion's heart-warming way. In everything she did with us or for us, you could feel so much love and passion. Every woman was met exactly where she was, everything was allowed to be, in short: as a woman, you felt accepted.

I came home rested and grounded. My verdict after this exceptional week: highly recommended.

Thank you for showing us this enchanting side of Mallorca! Thank you, too, for the beautiful hikes and the glorious views, your mindfulness and generosity, the singing, qigong on the terrace, the meditations, your delicious soups, your constant attentiveness and care, and for your openness, your positive attitude, your wealth of ideas and your acceptance of difference.

Thank you so much, dear Marion, for this truly magnificent week and the fantastic experience in this beautiful place! Everything simply fell into place: the dreamlike finca, the incredibly beautiful and varied hikes, the delicious soups, the fragrant citrus fruit, the helpful breathing exercises, the inspiring spirituality, the powerful singing, the nourishing yoga exercises, the wonderful women and the valuable, open conversations.

As a fasting novice, I felt very well looked after and supported by you. You are a wonderful person, and I'm very grateful to have met you. You made the week magical!

New Year's Eve fasting and hiking on Mallorca was a reset for me and a wonderful way to begin the new year. Thank you, and warm wishes!

Hello dear Marion, thank you so much for the wonderful fasting week in Biniaraix! Our holiday house had a lovely atmosphere, the Sóller valley is a dream, the view over the valley of oranges is beyond words, and the hikes were incredibly varied and beautifully organised and led by you.

Thank you for your sensitive guidance, the most delicious fasting soup ever, the meditations, the tips for the time after fasting and your calm, easy-going manner.

The little things, like the healing stones and the tarot cards, the orange juice on the plaza and the beautifully laid table, were the icing on the cake. I'd love to come again!

Breathing consciously and simply being there comes all the more easily in a wonderful landscape and among wonderful women. Above all, Marion's natural and genuine care for those fasting gave all of us an unforgettable week! I return moved and detoxed. Spring can come.

Dear Marion, a thank you that comes from the bottom of my heart: for this wonderful week with you and other great women in Mallorca's glorious landscape. Staying in these Mallorcan fincas was just as dreamlike as all the nature around us.

Special thanks to you, too, for all your guidance and the programme you prepared. I found your care and the way you led the whole week very valuable: dreamlike hiking routes, walking in silence, your delicious soups, which we enjoyed mindfully and in silence, our valuable conversations, yoga in the morning, the meditations and the helpful encouragement that even 3 minutes is a good start for taking up meditation again.

THANK YOU for running your courses out of deep conviction. And THANK YOU for your tangible love and for the very authentic way you are present and act. Oh yes, I absolutely must mention your Ayurvedic massage too: simply wonderful. I'd love to come along again right away!

If you're looking for peace, relaxation, rest and a break from stress, go to Mallorca with Marion. If you want to feel the fascination of the mountains and the landscape, go to Mallorca with Marion. Every morning I opened the window and looked straight out at the mountains from my bed. In this house you can even open a little window in the shower and gaze at the mountains while the water runs down over you.

If you simply need to get away to regain strength for everyday life, go to Mallorca with Marion. You'll come back richer on the inside too, because these small, family-like groups in this beautiful house stay with you for a long time. And of course there's the great side effect that you really do lose a good amount of weight. To everyone reading these lines: have a lovely time with Marion!

Dear Marion, ever since I got back from the wonderful fasting and hiking trip with you on Mallorca, I've been raving about it to everyone around me. About how lovingly you arranged everything, what wonderful trails you chose for us and what beautiful places we stayed in. I'll be back!

Dear Marion, thank you so much for this beautiful, restful and at the same time eventful week. You chose the hikes perfectly, and they were simply dreamlike.

We especially want to mention how attentively and flexibly you responded to our wishes, every single minute. That really made fasting easy for us. It was a wonderful week all round. Thank you so much, and Sat Nam.

Wonderful, in the truest sense of the word. It was a journey into a new, different world for me. And by the way: there's no faster way to unwind and let go of stress.

Dear Marion, after my first fast, which will always be connected with you, with your way of accepting life as a gift and drawing strength from nature, I have now settled back into my everyday life.

After this second stay in the mountains, Mallorca has become a gentle place of walking for me, with my body towards my soul. I drink much more, I still sing a mantra every morning and I begin each new day more consciously.

Thank you for encouraging me to let reason and intuition stand side by side. I wish you all the very best on your path, and in welcoming others onto it!

We went fasting and hiking on Mallorca. You eat just one soup a day, drink plenty of water and hike between 14 and 18 km a day. It was warm, and the weather played along. We were there for 10 days and now feel completely refreshed and fully detoxed. It was so good that from now on we want to do something like this once a year.

In the winter of 2017, I signed up at short notice for fasting and hiking on Mallorca over New Year. Those 8 days exceeded my expectations in every way. Marion looked after our group with great dedication, cooked wonderful fasting soups and put together glorious hikes.

The village of Biniaraix is enchanting, and the accommodation is very beautiful and cosy. I'd join the hiking and fasting again straight away.

Dear Marion, it was a fantastic time! Oranges, lemons and grapefruit straight from the tree, refreshing spring water, delicious teas, freshly made soups, lovely hikes, yoga, meditation, talking, savouring, rejoicing. Thanks to the whole group, and especially to you, Marion. Thank you!

For us, the fasting week with Marion was a perfect start to the new year. Thank you so much for the spiritual impulses, the dreamlike hikes and the balance between walking in silence and stimulating conversations. Thank you, dear Marion!

For me, the highlights of the fasting trip were the long hikes through the beautiful Mallorcan landscape in the north-west of the Balearic island and being together in a small, lovely group of women, especially over New Year, along with Marion, our fasting guide, who responded so well to our needs. Thank you so much for that!

Dear Marion, thank you so very much for the wonderful week here on Mallorca in this pretty house, surrounded by magnificent nature. Your loving, inspiring and joyful energy brought a lot of lightness to the whole experience.

For me, it was a valuable experience for shaping my everyday life more consciously and choosing what is good for my body and what isn't. Heartfelt thanks.

Dear Marion, it was an inspiring, exciting and restful week, a week full of small miracles for me. Mallorca's incredibly beautiful nature, very lovely women fasting alongside me, yoga, mantra singing, qigong, the beautiful accommodation, delicious soups, freshly pressed juices from fruit straight from the garden and, above all, you. You have such a big heart, and you live what you offer. Wonderful!

For me, it was an experience of body, soul and mind. Your question “What truly nourishes me?” set a lot in motion inside me.

In my case, there was also amazement of the finest kind, because I have type 1 diabetes and am fully insulin-dependent. All the fasting blogs and books advise people like me against fasting. I decided to go ahead anyway, because I know my body and how it responds to insulin combined with exercise very well. I didn't need to inject any insulin the whole week, and my blood sugar levels stayed consistently within the normal range. To be on the safe side, though, I always had a small bottle of fresh juice with me.

Heartfelt thanks for everything, dear Marion. Of course I'll be there again for the next New Year's Eve fasting!

Dear Marion, I want to thank you so very much. You gave us so much during this fasting week. You opened up new paths for us, and I don't just mean the great, varied hikes, but also new paths in a spiritual sense.

I want to tell you that our time together is still resonating very, very strongly and that I found this week truly special. I'm sending you all my love and lots of good wishes for your own path. For everything you showed us and told us, a huge heartfelt thank you! A big hug.

Hello Marion, I'd like to thank you once more for your wonderful energy. I'm actually still in break-fast mode: no red wine, no coffee, no black tea, no carbohydrates and, above all, no fish and no meat. Warm wishes!
