Category: Inspire & Connect
*Inspire & Connect provide 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.
As the holiday season approaches, let us meet in a secluded place in the southern part of Taiwan, where warm sunlight replenishes our energy and warmth flowing through our bodies.
At the end of the year, we re-adjust our focus and return to ourselves. After aligning our chakras, we can feel the healing flow of spiritual energy, cleansing our tired souls. Gently, release the burdens on our shoulders and rediscover the long-lost balance.
On this journey of self-awareness, we will meditate in a way different from the usual, deeply observing and caring for every inch of our skin, every thought and consciousness. We will feel the connection between the chakras, the body, and emotions, and receive nourishment from the earth, creating a strong bond between body, mind, and the earth.
Set aside your worries and troubles as you experience the various possibilities that the new year brings.
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.
Exploring the Power of Reiki Instructor: Omar
In this retreat, Omar will be leading us various forms of meditation, Reiki Healing and Kundalini Yoga. Allowing us to discover a self healing method that is suitable for us.
"I love to see people become stronger and believe in themselves more! Trusting your heart, intuition, and inspiration is what I've been practicing all along." Omar is warm and influential, skilled in using a friendly approach to instruct.
Through years of spiritual learning, Omar integrates different techniques such as meditation, breathing techniques, yoga, Reiki, flower essence, etc. to help people explore and live out their true self.
In Sanskrit, Gu means darkness, Ru means light, and Guru refers to people or things that lead us from darkness to light. Omar aspires to become a Guru for others, thereby inspiring people to become Gurus for more people.

Space
Located in one of the busiest cities in Kaohsiung, this quiet and cultural village is preserved by the government today.
As one of the most secluded hostels away from the noisy city, this is a safe space with stories and creations. The contemporary interior design of wood and Tatami elicited the feelings of warmth and happiness.
There’s also a cute small garden where we can always choose a pleasant place to lay down on a beautiful sunny day.
Nourish
Originally from Pingtung, Hengchun, our chef uses very creative ways to combine TAP certified agriculture as ingredients in every dish. When you taste each dish, you’d also taste the element’s purest flavor.
They hope that through their meal, they can allow more people to support Taiwanese agriculture and help integrate vegetarian meals into people’s lives.
