Breathwork

Breathwork and Breath Medicine:One of the most transformative experiences awaiting you on this journey is Breath Medicine—a deep, shamanic journey under the stars designed to trigger profound cellular changes and liberate old belief systems. This powerful practice provides an intense, immersive experience that opens the door to significant emotional, mental, and spiritual healing. And just imagine, if this journey is already transformative, the energy of the location will amplify its power, making it an even more unforgettable experience.Beyond this remarkable experience, we'll also incorporate other forms of breathwork throughout the trip. Learn simple yet effective breathing techniques to regulate your nervous system, oxygenate your cells, and establish mindful awareness in your daily routine. From functional breathing to heart coherence breaths, these practices will serve as grounding tools, bringing you back to the present moment no matter where life takes you.

​

Yoga and Movement:

​

Daily Yin Yoga sessions, designed to cater to participants at every level. Whether you are taking your first steps into yoga or are an experienced practitioner, our sessions provide a supportive and inclusive space for you to explore the profound benefits of Yin Yoga. This gentle, meditative practice focuses on passive stretches, targeting the connective tissues in the hips, pelvis, and lower spine, inviting your body to slowly open and release tension. Extended hold times, ranging from one to five minutes, allow you to deepen into each pose, encouraging a state of mindful awareness and inner calm.

Guided by our knowledgeable instructor, Elissa, each session is thoughtfully adapted to accommodate all levels, ensuring a safe and nurturing environment for your practice. As you immerse yourself in Yin Yoga, you will experience its impact not only on your physical body but also on your energetic system. The practice works in harmony with the body’s meridian system, helping to unblock and balance energy pathways and promote a seamless flow of Qi (energy). This holistic approach leaves you feeling rejuvenated, balanced, and deeply connected to your inner self, making every moment of your journey an integral part of your path to well-being.

Hiking & fitness:​ 

 

This is an active trip involving a hike every day plus general walking around the campsites and destinations. However, we always take hikes at a reasonable pace and have plenty of breaks to catch our breath, we are here to enjoy nature and this experience - not to push ourselves to our physical limits! To make the most out of this trip a reasonable level of fitness is required to enjoy all the hikes, but you may choose to sit out on a particular activity at any time if you feel you want to rest at the camp or a nearby safe spot such as a cafe or information center.
