My Soul Retreat
Our Team
Welcome to the spiritual home of Simone, Tobias, and William where they have found the perfect balance between eastern practices and western “real world” thinking.
They acknowledge that in our society we are driven by result and success based work and we are equally driven when it comes to the development of our body, mind and soul. In other words we like to see the fruits of our labour (in this lifetime!).
Simone and Tobias are do-ers when it comes to life. They have both built up successful careers, are raising a fine son and have followed their dreams and have realized some of them already. More importantly Simone and Tobias practice what they preach. They don’t smoke, drink, do drugs and look after their health.
Simone Moir
German born Simone, is the inspiration behind “My soul retreat”.
The Yoga therapist and Reiki Master found balance in Croatia to offset the more up-beat, often stress driven lifestyle that one is bound to in cities.
She found her Yin to the Yang in My soul retreat.
The sheer abundance of nature, peace and tranquility here, is almost over powering. Every cell of your body realigns and vibrates at a higher level, by just being here. She found these grounds to be conducive to shifting energy blocks, be it destructive emotional patterns, addictive behavior, stagnation of life energy…
Her belief in “build it and they will come” is manifesting and she hopes to share this experience with all those who seek it.

Katherine Beaumont
Swiss born Katherine, is delighted to have been invited to participate in the 2007 Chakra Yoga Workshop.
Having already shared her energy with the 2007 workshop, we are delighted to heve her on board again. Kathereine was very taken by the village setting, which combines the best of a natural way of living with the basic essentials of the modern age. The perfect spot to showcase spiritually-based energy healing!
Utilizing a combination of disciplines, namely Reiki and spirit healing, Katherine acts as a channel to assist in the process of auric smoothing and attunement, emotional balancing, and chakra clearing.
It is Katherine’s belief that spiritual well being is not only our birthright but is inherent in us all…
Our true Scotsman William Alexander Moir
He will be a bit more than 18 months in June and is a sociable star His gift is his smile that he shares easily and is always up for a cuddle. William is most looking forward to swimming in the clean turquoise sea and smelling all the new scents of the island. He is a great outdoors man. William awaits you!
Anton Caric
The Dalmatian expert and hotelier.
He is the helping hand for booking adventures and to arrange extension of your stay.
He is the rebel of healthy lifestyle and believes that the air in Dalmatia alone is more than enough, to make up for his short comings. One has to give him credit; he received Reiki attunement, has tried Yoga and liked it.
Our days consist of an infinite number of choices. Change some of those
choices and we change our lifestyle.
A full, enjoyable, healthy lifestyle is a choice. It can be learned and practiced. Ways and means are devised to gradually alter habits which do not contribute to a feeling of well-being and to introduce alternative habits and actions which lead to a fuller, richer, healthier more vibrant and energetic lifestyle.
Leonardo DaVinchi once said:
"Sometimes you have to go away, far away to see the whole picture, to understand patterns and harmonies".
We believe that life is a journey, that some have a good idea of the path, but none of us know the precise destination.
Even with the best laid plans and a sack of ambition the best of us can get stuck and lost along the way.
Our mission at My Soul Retreat is to assist you with packing your rucksack with the necessary tools to get back on track.
We help you to strip yourself of excess weight (toxins, tension, emotional baggage, bad habits…) which slows you down and robs you of your energy and replace it with lighter, more resilient, user-friendly equipment. (Breathing and yoga techniques, goal setting, optimal nutrition…) Time to enjoy the mountain tops, rivers and canyons of life - Time to empower yourself with the knowledge that you find shelter and nourishment when needed – Time to live your personal experience on earth with conviction. In the meantime, give your mind, body and soul the time to breathe through, focus on your dreams and get moving again.
"It is not the mountains ahead that wear you out.
It's the grain of sand in your shoe."
