Category: Holistic Wellness
*Holistic 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 18-year-old and over.
In the fast paced society we’re in, our head is constantly filled with ideas and thoughts, leaving us with no time for ourselves. We hope that through this retreat, you can finally enjoy a moment of simple peace.
The retreat is specially designed as a space of relaxation, where time is stopped here, and where attendees can let go of their names and any distraction.
Take a deep breath, watch the changing phases of the sun, and stretch out your whole body. As you adjust to your breathing, the pressure on your muscles slowly disappears.
In silence, allow yourself to observe your five senses and emotions. Let your energy and emotions flow through every part of your body, and feel your body regain its inner balance.
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.
Mindfulness Meditation Instructor: Yoanna
In this retreat, Yoanna will lead us to find our inner peace through meditation. The key to finding inner peace is to understand who you are and be mindful about your emotions.
“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.
Awareness in the Dark: Rosalyn
In this retreat, Rosalyn will be leading attendees on exploring our mind and body in the darkness.
“In a place of darkness, we actually see more around us.”
In her past experience, Rosalyn has formed a deep connection with her body through contact improvisation dance. She has also discovered how contact improvisation dance helps with being more mindful about the body.Our brain is very similar to a radio tape, in which it continuously repeats something it has learned. However, as we neglect being controlled by our brain and follow our body, we can relearn and rediscover many new things.
Let us follow Rosalyn’s guide and allow our five senses to open up for an unprecedented experience.
*This session will be guided in Chinese
*This session can be held bilingual, send your request to our official LINE @soulbarn at least one week before the retreat if you need.
