As the light reaches its turning point and the year prepares to shift, we gather for a two-day immersion designed to reconnect you with your body, your breath, and your natural aliveness.
the winter solstice is a doorway:
a moment to slow down, to feel, to shed what has grown heavy, and to awaken the inner spark for the year ahead. This retreat offers a grounded yet playful container to explore yourself and others with honesty, curiosity, and depth.
🌬 What to Expect
Across the two days, you’ll be invited into a rich blend of practices, each supporting you to soften, open, and reconnect:
• Breathwork (Wim Hof–style):
Activate your energy, expand your capacity, and drop into deep presence.
• Primal Play / Playfight:
Safe, embodied, instinctive play that reconnects you with spontaneity and healthy power.
• Empathic Communication Group Training (in the tradition of Marshall Rosenberg):
Learn tools for honest expression, deep listening, and compassionate communication.
• Movement Research & Free Movement:
Explore your body’s wisdom through guided explorations and open movement space.
• Meditation & Integration Moments:
Quiet, anchoring practices to settle what you discover.
• Qi Gong:
Gentle yet powerful grounding practices for centering and flow.
• Cacao Ceremony:
A warm, heart-opening ritual to support connection, intention-setting, and presence. Shared in a gentle ceremonial space designed to invite clarity, emotional openness, and communal warmth.
• Authentic Relating Exercises:
We’ll engage in relational games and formats to build trust and genuine connection.
• Listening Circles:
Occasional satsang gatherings will open a calm, honest space for genuine questions and profound answers — an opportunity to inquire, reflect, and receive insight from the collective field.
• Gong Bathing:
Anna will unpack some of her singing bowls; its sounds will help us deepen our meditation-practice, release mental tension and emotional blocks
And of course, snack breaks and a longer lunch break on Day 2 to rest, digest, and connect informally.

🌱 Why During the Solstice?
The solstice invites introspection. It naturally supports:

• returning to your inner center
• reawakening energy after the year’s longest night
• setting clear intentions for the coming cycle
This retreat is crafted to mirror that rhythm: depth, stillness, play, clarity.
