*Inspire & Connect provides retreats that help us pursue inner happiness, peace, freedom, and personal growth through wellness group activities. Here in a safe space, together we discuss ideas without judgment, and share stories we've never told a soul.
*The retreat will proceed with a minimum of 5 attendees. If there are fewer than 5 attendees, we will notify you and issue a full refund one week before the retreat starts.
*Please note that this is an adult-exclusive retreat available to 16-year-olds and over.
At the peak of summer, we gather at the Soul Barn rooftop sanctuary, a tranquil haven amidst the urban hustle and bustle. Let us bask in the gentle sunlight that replenishes our vitality and feel the warmth of the sun, circulating through our bodies, bringing a sense of comfort and ease to every part of us.
Follow the gentle guidance to readjust and realign ourselves. After chakra tuning, we are rejuvenated by Reiki healing to the body and mind - washing away our exhaustion, gently putting down the pressure on our shoulders, and finding back our long lost balance.
In this journey of body awareness, Soul Barn integrates Kundalini sound flow meditation and Shaman breathing meditation. Following the pace of the guide, we practice a different form of meditation where we deeply observe and care for every inch of our skin, every thought and consciousness, and feel the connection between the chakras, body and emotion. Let the body, mind and spirit connect closely with all natural entities.
Let go of your anxiety and worries, return to our daily routines with a refreshed body and mind after deep healing and experience all the new and exciting possibilities that life offers.
What To Expect
Wear your most comfortable clothes and bring environmentally friendly tableware.
Put down your phones and communicate with the world attentively.
Stay weird and stay unique.
