Some Miraval guests like to cherry-pick activities spontaneously, while others choose an overall guiding principal (which can be arranged before arrival).

Instead of saddling up for trail rides with tobacco-spitting cowboys, guests sign up for an Equine Experience, where the emphasis is not on riding but on using horses "as a means of revealing patterns of learned behaviors that enhance or hinder the flow of relationships, creating opportunities to recognize how stress is created and, thereby, how stress can be avoided."
Gayot Gayot
"Miraval delivers a tranquil and healing experience devoted to living in balance and mindfulness as a way of life."
