PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT
Immerse yourself in a rejuvenating journey in a place where the inspiring nature is exceptional, offering a RESET at the core of your life. This voyage is designed to be a blend of discovery, healing, and transformation, combining elements from Yoga teachings, mindfulness, and Zen philosophy. To encapsulate, here’s a brief overview of these ingredients that will guide our experiences in Italian soil:
R: Respirations, Relaxation, Réparation (Repair)
E: Espace (Space), Exploration, Échange (Exchange)
S: Souplesse (Flexibility), Sécurité (Security), Sens (Sense)
E: Énergie (Energy), Essence, Expression
T: Transformation
The foundation for the desired transformation is to settle in a unique place, fostering a comprehensive sense of security, and then exploring and deepening our connection with the surroundings. Each day, we will encourage you to inhabit time and action, moment by moment, mindfully harmonizing the 4 levels of Being: physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual.
**Highlights:**
– Daily yoga classes facing the sea
– Full-day boat excursion to explore the caves
– Half-day guided tour of the historical centers of nearby villages
**Extras:**
– Teachings to harmonize the 4 levels of Being
– Exploration of local Italian and Mediterranean cuisine
– Discovery of the city of Rome for half a day and one evening
