*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 16-year-olds and over.
"Have you ever worried about awkwardness, that you had to fill the void with words?”
Living in the modern society, we can't avoid daily communication and conversations. Often, as we step out the door, we choose to put on our masks and avoid many voices that echo in our minds. Over time, we gradually forget the pure warmth that comes from person-to-person interaction, and we even forget to preserve moments of solitude and quietness.
"I miss the carefree, joyful version of myself from the past."
We invite you to create a tranquil space while you reject the external sounds. Here, there's no language, no interruption, nor names—just tranquility as your companion.
In this journey, follow the instructor’s guidance and pay attention to your thoughts and heartbeat. Starting from each step you take, practice activating your senses. Through guided meditation, express gratitude to your body. In moments of meditation and stillness, reconnect with and reconcile that long-lost version of "yourself."
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.
Immersive Meditation and Group Hypnosis: Oliver
In this retreat, we will use hypnosis as a healing tool to go between our conscious and subconscious. Guided by Oliver, we will understand mindfulness not only through our dietary choices but also in our daily behaviors.
At the same time, practice bringing mindfulness into our daily life including our diet, when we walk, listen and observe.
“ On the path to discovering wellness, I’ve learned to embrace the vulnerable me.”
In 2015, Oliver switched careers from Brand Advertising to Quantum Consciousness Science. He also gained knowledge in different healing tools such as meridian massage, hypnosis meditation, sound healing and meditation.
After starting counseling, Oliver applied these self-healing tools into every aspect of life. Oliver firmly believes that we are inherently equipped with the ability to self-heal and hopes to guide others in learning to recalibrate and heal during both favorable and challenging times.
