*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 people 16 years of age and older.


 

In this Autumn season full of harvest, we would like to invite you back to Soul Barn and enjoy the last bit of warmth before winter. 

Let us celebrate our love for nature and ourselves through meditation and chants.  Through each and every part of the retreat, let us reconnect with ourselves and create happiness within us. 

 

 

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.

 
 
 

Meditation Instructor: Gina

In this retreat, Gina will be leading “Metta Meditation for Gratitude”, “Mantra for Joy and Peace” and “Infinite Appreciation:Five Senses Exploration” that will train us to be mindful of our five senses. Through each step, we will put our body back to its original state and experience every detail behind it.

“Connect everything through your heart in its original form.”

Gina is a yoga instructor who has regained her confidence and belief through the journey of self discovery. She believes that once you learn to listen to your true voice, everything in the universe will come together and help you meet your true self.

*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.

 
 
 

Sharing Circle: Ada

At a point in life, you will realize that those problems you used to struggle with, are ways that can help you view life in different perspectives. Through the journey, you will be able to learn how to trust, create and love. 

Ada went on a journey of self discovery years ago due to her curiosity of life. In this whole journey of ups and downs, she slowly gained her connection with the world, and hopes to share her experience on how to create your own happiness in this session.

Space

 
 

Located in a corner of Yangminshan, our space is surrounded by nature. Sounds of birds chirping wakes you up in the morning, as the morning breeze sweeps across your face. 

Here in our space, we invite you to take a deep breath and let go of all your worries.

At Soul Barn, we aim for a healthy and balanced diet.
