*Holistic Wellness provides retreats that offer a wide range of workshops with a holistic wellness approach, for example, Reiki, Xi-Gong, Ceramics, Sound Healing, Tea Ceremony and so on. Holistic Wellness emphasizes more on the connection with yourself.
*Please note that this is an adult-exclusive retreat available to people 16 years of age and older.
In the season of spring, embrace your body in nature as the flowers bloom around you. Press a pause in this busy life, and let your body reset.
Allow yourself to be mindful of your five senses, and observe the connection between yourself, others and the surrounding.
Close your eyes, as you focus on the sounds of the healing instruments. Let the melodies play through your body and bring your mind to a peaceful state.
What To Expect
Put down your phones together and communicate with the world attentively. Please do not disturb the environment, do not litter, do not maliciously attack others. Wear your most comfortable clothes and bring environmentally friendly tableware. Stay weird and stay unique.
Full schedule will be provided after booking is confirmed.
Awareness in the Dark Instructors: Rosalyn & Joey
In this retreat, Rosalyn & Joey will be leading “Meditation for Grounding and Flow” and “Awareness in the Dark” to allow attendees to explore their minds and bodies in darkness.
“In a place of darkness, we actually see more around us.”
In her own experience, Rosalyn formed a deep connection with her body through contact improvisation dance. Let us follow Rosalyn as she guides us in darkness.
“To our surprise, darkness is another kind of light that allows us to see who we really are.”
Joey, a psychologist and music healer who has experienced being in between darkness and light, will show attendees the idea of being mindful in the dark.
His loss of sight was also a key factor that gave him a whole new idea and understanding of the peace and observation that darkness brings, and he aims to share that with the attendees.
*This session will be in Chinese
*This session can also be held in English and Chinese. Please contact @soulbarn official LINE account at least one week in advance if you need this service.
Sound Healing Instructor:Pei
“In this retreat, Pei will be leading “Relax and Reconnect: Sound Healing Journey” and “Return to Stillness Guided Meditation” to help attendees find back their connection with themselves.
Pei will be playing special sound instruments including the world’s only titanium singing bowl, Didgeridoo, Shaman Drum, and crystal singing bowls.
Pei started his journey in India, where he learned about the traditional way of healing through sounds. The melody and frequency create a high vibration that relaxes the body and puts the mind to peace.
