▹ How often do you experience ease in your life? ▹ Do you want to work with your personal themes that disconnect you from ease and presence? ▹ Do you feel the need to be more resilient in order to cope with the demands of the quality of life that we face today? ▹ Do you want to recharge and reconnect to the flow state for more power and confidence? ▹ Do you ever feel stressed out, disconnected from yourself or your loved ones, low, slightly depressed or overwhelmed?

Friday May 20th
Root to Rise from 4:30pm - 8:00pm
workshop introduction with connection and grounding for the days ahead
In the first session together, we will introduce you to some of the items in our toolkit that will be used in the coming sessions. This will include a mix of movement, journaling and discussion. We will look at why you are here and what you want to focus on in the coming day(s). What subject(s) do you want to explore? The relationship with your partner? Your children? Your coworkers? Do you need changes in your work life? In the way you communicate? Do you suffer from stress, anxiety, a restrictive emotion or belief about yourself? Do you often feel overwhelmed or not seen? Or are you maybe here for new inspiration for a project you want to bring to reality? Or to connect better with what you want in the near future? You will look for a subject that is important to you, choosing something where you want to create a positive shift, or learn how an apparent weakness can become a strength. Once we begin exploring your personal subject or theme for the weekend, you will experience how the work highlights the connection between the physical, emotional and mental states in the body. This first meeting will guide and prepare you for the work in the coming sessions. Together we will increase the energy level and sew roots to your power - the basics to experience ease!
Saturday May 21st
Calm within the storm from 9:30am - 1:00pm
daily & recurring emotions
Saturday morning begins with a deep dive into our inner lives. What are the stuck and recurrent emotions that keep you busy as you go about your day? We will look at ways to introduce order to your emotional world. Instead of feeling overwhelmed and flooded with internal messages, we can start to build a more healthy relationship to your inner world. Rest, movement, journaling and discussion will support this process. This session is an opportunity to work on a current personal situation, theme or event that is preoccupying the mind. A more stable inner world is a foundation for access to your wishes and visions in life.
Daring to dream from 3:15pm - 6:30pm
your wishes & desires
Events over the last few years have brought a certain clarity to many, showing what was perhaps missing in life. Maybe you made a change in your work life or in your relationships. Or maybe a dream from the past returned with the hope of catching your attention. We will show you why we have to know exactly what we want in order to turn dreams into reality. These dreams do not have to be big life questions. They can also be a desire for more balance. Whatever the desire, we are offering an afternoon of clarity. We will help you make your wishes and desires more tangible, because this is one of the keys to experience more ease again. What gives you energy? What is the long breath within you? What is important for you in this life? Ease is available to us when we know what we want and can follow our dreams and desires. Ease is actually very simple when we allow what is within us space for expression.
Sunday May 22nd
Look within to glow outwards from
9:30am - 12:30pm
self confidence and trust in life
How do you show up in your daily interactions? We introduce you to the process of looking into the past for old patterns or beliefs that bring about a loss of confidence or energy in life. In order to deepen self-confidence and trust in life, we have to travel through and integrate our fears and insecurities. Understanding our patterns and how to work with them gives us access to a superpower life force that will increase strength and resilience in your daily life. You will have the tools to use this power to create a life with more freedom and pleasure. You will also experience how confidence and the courage that comes with it, can change private or professional situations, your communication with the ones around you or help you to set up healthy boundaries.
Experiencing ease from 3:00pm - 5:30pm
deep relaxation
To be at ease is to be connected to your intuition. In the final session of the weekend, we will share ways to trust your intuition and deepen your understanding around it, because sometimes you will need to have a “long breath” and stay calm and relaxed at the same time. There will be time to enjoy true deep relaxation- to spend time fully at ease with a peaceful mind, a tranquil nervous system, a calm physical body. You will have the chance to discover for yourself the real possibility to approach life with this quality of ease. The closure to the weekend will be equal parts cozy and playful.
