Belonging: Yoga and Meditation Retreat
20-22 Aug 2021, Ladánybene
Working through ups and downs, the opening up and closing of the world multiple times during the past year, we may have reflected on our ways of being. At times, we may have felt cut off, numbed and perhaps separated from our deepest sense of joy and belonging.
You are not separate. You never were. You never will be.
Sebene Selassie: You Belong – A Call for Connection
During this retreat, we will aim to find ease and a sense of belonging, by first looking at parts of ourselves that we may have been pushing away. The trees surrounding us, the pure air, the water that we can float and play in will be our partners on the journey.
Are you ready to start finding your way back to belonging?
While observing the main hygiene rules to keep ourselves safe, we will offer you a safe space to explore and play with the help of mindful movement, aquacontact, sauna sessions and simply being in nature.

From 222 EUR, including room and board, use of the pool and sauna.*
