~ Join us for a day of Relaxation, Nourishment & Connection!
The afternoon Retreat (1:00 pm - 4:30 pm) will be held at The Yurt near Cochrane followed by a 2 hour private group Spa experience (5:45 pm - 8:00 pm) at The Cave Sauna & Spa in Cochrane.
**Note, the Spa portion is sold out! There is space available to register for the afternoon retreat portion.**
Expand your connection with self and others through Meditation, Heart Connection Practices, Breathwork, Reflection / Journaling and complete the afternoon with delicious, nourishing snacks in the closing circle!
Heart Connection Practices:
An opportunity to deepen our connection with self and others which may include: eye/soul gazing, breath regulation, soulful communication, sound activation, movement practices, dyads. (A dyad is something that consists of two elements or parts. Expanding our ability to hold space, listen, receive and understand with an open heart).
Breathwork:
Meet yourself in new ways. This is an opportunity to engage the incredible clarifying and healing power of your primary life force, breath. Explore the energetic continuum of your body, beliefs, emotions, and non-physical realms. Detoxify, rejuvenate, energize, release, express, integrate, clarify, and heal.
Nūma Breathwork is a transformational synthesis of conscious connected breathwork, somatic explorations and sound healing, an inquiry that supports you in clearing energy within the physical, mental, emotional, and energetic bodies. This dynamic practice can catalyze spontaneous insights and non-ordinary states of consciousness. It is an insightful dive into the continuum of human experience and a potent portal into the numinous.
Reflection / Journaling: there will be various opportunities to reflect within; take some time to journal, and enjoy the outdoors!
** No previous experience is required.
