SYL RETREAT - A 3-DAY RETREATTheme: Surrender, A Sacred Practice
On the cusp of the seasonal shift from autumn into winter, we gather for an immersive retreat experience in Southern Finland. Together we’ll explore the intersection of our humanity and innate spirituality, while diving deep into the experience of surrender.
Join us at our warm, cosy and comfortable retreat home Villa Saga in the peaceful surroundings of Kirkkonummi. Immerse yourself in the daily guided practices by Anouk, allow yourself to share, to be seen and supported by our lovely community and enjoy an abundance of time and space for self-exploration.
GUIDED GROUP PRACTICES
These guided practices form the foundation for this retreat’s program. We dive deep into the experience of surrender through various bodywork and spiritual practice modalities. Together we practice yin yoga, breath work, movement and meditation, bringing awareness and spaciousness to our own inner processes in relation to the beauty and sacredness of surrender.
SHARING CIRCLES
Experience the depth and meaning of true community. For our sharing circles we create a safe space for all of us to be exactly as we are. Sharing your inner life experience (sensations, thoughts and feelings), in circle has the powerful potential of providing greater depth to your retreat theme explorations. During each of our circles we use a specific question to guide us.
SELF-EXPLORATION
Besides our group practices and sharing circles, there is plenty of opportunity in the schedule to spend time by and with yourself.
In fact, self-exploration is a real important part of our program, allowing deeper insights to surface and space for introspection and integration of inner experiences. You will be guided by assignments and practices for self-exploration.
OUR RETREAT HOME:
During our 3-day weekend together, we set up our retreat home at the lovely Villa Saga in Kirkkonummi (Uusimaa, Southern Finland). The warmth and comfort of its interior, as well as the peaceful surroundings of the villa, beautifully support the intention of our retreat. Villa Saga facilitates us in both being together as a group in a comfortable way, and in having sufficient private (solo) time and space.
The cosy yoga shala is where we meet for our guided group practices and sharing circles. All the (yoga) materials and props to support your practices are available here for you to use freely. Of course, if it has your preference, feel free to bring your own materials.
You will sleep in a shared room with 2-4 beds. All bedrooms are carefully designed and decorated to ensure a good nights sleep for an optimal retreat experience. The beds have futon mattress made of all-natural materials and pretty curtains to ensure your privacy. Crisp and clean bed linen, towels and bathrobes are provided. Throughout the villa there are several toilet and shower facilities available.
