Have you ever try not to talk or having a getaway from your phone in a day?

The one thing we can’t live without is communication. Everyday, we are facing different scenarios that force us to communicate with one another. Ever since, communication became something we needed to be aware of. Did I say something wrong? Is something implied in what he/she said?

Soul Barn provides a safe space where you don’t have to force yourself to put on a mask. There won’t even be names involved, just silence.

This afternoon, all you need to focus on is yourself.

 

 

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: Karina

In this retreat, Karina will be leading Pranayama Techniques and Japa Mantra Meditation Techniques that help us purify our body and mind. Through the process, it will also help us open up our Chakras in our body.

Karina was born in Argentina, South America and moved to Taiwan in 2006 to study Chinese. Her love for travel and yoga led her to countries like Austria and India to pursue her yoga training. Karina has practiced yoga for more than 22 years and has more than 17 years of teaching experience around the world such as Spain, Portugal, France, England, Austria, Germany, Poland, Argentina, Uruguay, Peru, Hong Kong, Taiwan, China, India, Thailand, Canada, Italy and Lebanon.

For the last few years, Pranayama and meditation has become Karina’s passion, as she realized her main purpose in life is to pass on the yoga teachings she has received.

Her spiritual name given by the acharyas of the Sivananda School is “Prema”, which means “Divine Love” - not expecting to receive anything in return. Karina believes that no matter what culture, age, gender, or social condition, it all contains love. Through yoga, Karina hopes to spread this divine love to everyone around her.


*This session will be held in English and Mandarin
