Reserve your place →The radiant hue of gold stands as a beacon, weaving together the threads of the sun, our inner light, and the eloquent language of self-expression. Like the first rays of dawn, gold is the herald of illumination, casting its gentle warmth upon our existence.
The sun is an emblem of vitality and energy. Its golden radiance fuels the world, nurturing life and casting away shadows. In much the same way, gold mirrors the sun's radiance and is symbolizing our own inner light. Within each of us lies a spark, an essence that, when embraced, shines just as brilliant as the sun. It is a reminder that we too possess the power to dispel darkness, to nourish our spirits, and to share our warmth with the world.
Many times, we hide behind the expectations and rules society sets for us. We're scared of either not being enough or being too much, which keeps us from showing our true selves. We're sometimes afraid to reveal our full potential, our vulnerability, and our openness because we worry about what others might think.
This retreat with Juliette van der Weijde is an invitation to explore the depths of your self-expression, to embrace your brilliance within, and to illuminate the world with the glow of your authenticity.
Yogic practices such as meditation, pranayama, and yoga asana are tools to reveal our true Self so we can shine our light, to be bold, and to paint our existence with the hues of our unique spirit.
Another integral part of this experience is joyful self-development which will be supported by guided journaling practices and opportunities to share with others. We also enjoy a kirtan session with Sheila to use our voices and a creative workshop to foster playfulness. And, of course, we set aside an afternoon to bask in the late summer sunshine at the beach.
Our retreat unfolds within the captivating grounds of Villa Pravernara, a 16th-century villa nestled in the Piemontese countryside, overlooking the so-called “City Of Gold”, Valenza.
We warmly invite you to join us on this Golden Journey.
