Category: Inspire & Connect
*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.
*Please note that this is an adult-exclusive retreat available to 16-year-olds and over.
"Everything you experience, your body remembers.
Our brain is not the only organ that retains memory, but every part of your body, including our muscles and skin. Every event and emotion you go through leaves deep marks within your cells. However, we often overlook the information that our bodies want to convey us.
During this winter, join us in our community to gently awaken, listen, and understand these memories. In a safe and nurturing space, start by awakening your tense body and cold limbs. Use a warm and active body to embark on a journey of self-discovery through guided exploration. Gradually delve inward, sorting through the inner voices, and allowing our thoughts to settle.
Then, in the process of touch, feel the sensations your body has experienced, collectively experiencing the depth of the present moment.
In the silver-gray winter, gently illuminate our awareness, body, and the space we inhabit. In a tranquil corner of the city, as we listen to, understand, and heal each memory that has been overlooked, may we take with us some warmth through the entire winter season."
What To Expect

Deep Listening and Yoga Instructor: Yoanna
In this retreat, follow Yoanna’s way as you learn to relax, breathe and start the energy flow in your body.
Once we open up our five senses, we will start deep listening as we allow our inner voices to be heard.
“In a world that is so fast paced, we all need to learn how to stay calm and move at our own pace.”
Yoanna has experienced healing and growth through Breathing Techniques, Yoga, and Meditation Practices, and she hopes to bring that experience to our attendees too.
*This session will be held in Mandarin
*This session can be held bilingual, send your request to our official LINE @soulbarn at least one week before the retreat if you need.
