Speciality Day Program – Saturdays
Cold & Centred
Expand your awareness. Enliven your body. Enrich your life.
We’re designed to experience life through a calm, fulfilled and peaceful lens. The modern and fast paced world can create disconnection from nature, each other and ourselves. This disconnection is taking us further away from the real and felt experience in the body and mind and impacts every aspect of our lives.
The key to change? The breath.
Rebirthing Breathwork is a powerful practice using conscious connected breathing through the nose. It’s a simple, gentle and profound modality of healing that activates the parasympathetic nervous system. When there is calm, ease and safety in the nervous system, healing can occur.
This retreat is designed to anchor you back into your Self.
You will connect deeply with your body through the senses with guided meditation and yoga; explore the subconscious landscape to expand your awareness, shift stagnant energy and shed layers of conditioning and dis-ease physically, mentally and energetically with rebirthing breathwork; and have an opportunity to challenge yourself and the limitations of the mind with cold immersion therapy.
Discover how to work with your body, and not against it and expand your potential. You’ll learn takeaway tools you can incorporate into your daily life and connect with like-minded people in an intimate and shared experience.
To expand your awareness, enliven your body and enrich your life.
