Yoga, shamanism, singing & sweat lodge retreat in Ardèche, France
- August 18th to 24th, 2024
In Ardèche (France): Yoga and Shamanism retreat, the transformative power of the voice.
We have, in our voice,a lot more to offer than we think! You don't have to be a singer, musician or good public speaker to enjoy the transformative fire in your throat! Hint: pleasure is one of the fundamental keys.
When we detach ourselves from the aesthetic or performative character of music, we discover in it a " Medicine " dimension. Together, we'll take a theoretical and practical look at what this means and how it can help us in our daily lives. As well as the different ways of preparing the whole body to vibrate with ease, thanks in particular to yoga.
We'll finish the retreat with a shamanic practice called Sweat Lodge, during which we'll have the opportunity to put what we've learned to good use.
The sweat lodge (Temazcal) is an age-old ritual among native Mesoamerican peoples. It represents the womb of our mother earth, where the elements enter into alchemy to offer us a timeless journey, a space for prayer, healing and rebirth. Jenna will prepare you to welcome this moment of transformation, through yoga, breathing and in-depth work on the connection between breath and voice-medicine.
Yoga, physical-energetic practices and shamanic rituals will stimulate the seed of transformation planted in the soil of your Being.
Our yoga and shamanism retreat will be held at the Domaine du Taillé, at the Espace Camaléa. Located to the north of the estate, in a clearing lined with oak trees, this practice area offers a secluded, rejuvenating setting. Here, rocks, undergrowth and birds will be your closest neighbors.
A saltwater swimming pool and large tents are also available. This space is perfect for total immersion in nature.
