Massage course

Massage is the study of anatomy in braille. Learning massage will give you a lot of skills and virtues: giving love, sharing energy, taking care about someone, developing intuition and sensitivity. Even it will not become your main profession, it is always useful to know how to make massage. 

You will learn to perform traditional Balinese relaxing massage. Balinese massage is a full-body, deep-tissue, holistic treatment. Traditional Balinese massage uses a combination of gentle stretches, acupressure, reflexology, and aromatherapy to stimulate the flow of blood, oxygen and "qi" (energy) around your body, and bring a sense of well-being, calm and deep relaxation. Balinese massage uses a variety of techniques including skin rolling, kneading and stroking, and pressure-point stimulation, combined with the aromas of essential oils.

Sound healing course

In sound we are born, in sound we are healed. Learn to work with the resonant vibrations of healing sounds. The ancient art of sound therapy will be introduced to you in this course.

Sound Healing is a powerful way to reduce stress and calm the mind, allowing practitioners to sink into deep states of relaxation – which sounds like something that would be amazing to add to your yoga class!​

Yoga & meditation

Your body exists in the past and your mind exists in the future. In yoga, they come together in the present.

The program includes a combination of active yoga and meditations. Morning sessions are based on Hatha yoga and focus on physical body awareness and acceptance. Evening classes offer more meditation techniques and have the purpose of emotional cleansing, calming down your mind, and developing virtues and skills.

Hatha Yoga

Many popular modern yoga styles came from classic Hatha Yoga. Hatha Yoga means balance between Sun (Ha) and Moon (Tha) energies, which gives it the  power to transform you into a more balanced and strengthened being.

Hatha yoga is an ideal starting place for people who are new to yoga. One of the more challenging aspects of a yoga practice is combining movements with breathing control, or pranayama. Hatha yoga works on increasing flexibility and strength, improving breathing and calming down the mind. Hatha yoga purifies the body in preparation for meditation.

Meditation

Discover your inner self through ancient Balinese healing yoga Markandeya! Combination of movements, static positions, breathing, and meditations will bring you to another level of awareness about all the blocks in your physical body.

Your body keeps the memory about your life experience, emotions of the past, traumas, and self-disconnection. Yoga and meditation is the best way to work on it and release whatever limits you. Practicing kriyas and meditations is a challenging experience. You always choose how deep you want to delve in.

During the practice, you can experience a lot of resistance and tension, but passing through it, will bring you to the inner world where you will meet with your soul, find answers to your questions, and discover your original personality. You will start feeling how your energy is moving, and you will understand that you are more than just a physical body. Attending meditation classes at our Retreat will give you a deep spiritual experience you have never received.

Sound healing

The most beautiful and relaxing experience is waiting for you in a PERSONAL sound healing session.​

Sound Healing is a powerful way to reduce stress and calm the mind, allowing you to sink into deep states of relaxation. Usage of different ancient instruments will trigger different emotions inside you. It will be your personal journey, that will give you awareness about your inner state and will help release deep subconscious blocks.​

The practice of sound healing uses sound waves and harmonic vibrations that affect the body through different tones and instruments, including the human voice. These specific sounds help to harmonize our brainwaves through a technique called Entrainment. Entrainment stabilizes fluctuating brainwaves by providing a stable frequency with which the brain can synchronize. By using rhythm and frequency, we can entrain our brainwaves and facilitate a shift from our normal brain state to relaxed levels of consciousness, which is where deep healing can occur. We typically operate in beta brain states and sound healing can move us into theta and delta brain states. These brain states are associated with the unconscious, deep relaxation and connection to the universe.

Self-awareness

The most important conversations you'll ever have are the ones you'll have with yourself.

We all are playing the Game of Life. We are wearing different masks and show a wide range of emotions.

Who is the original you?

What is serving you and what is draining your energy?

All answers are inside us, we just need to become aware about our own wisdom.

Self-awareness Leela Game

Leela Game has been used for many centuries for clearing up negative mental tendencies and developing a higher conscience. Playing this game opens the awareness of the mind patterns and as a result  can change your life and destiny. It is not a simple game, but a transformative psychological and spiritual practice.​

In a few hours of play, you may learn MORE than you would during years of spiritual or psychological practices. You will find out where and how you are limiting yourself, you will expand your perception, and your consciousness, and discover and eliminate stereotypes, thinking patterns, and subconscious programs that constrain you.

During this game you will develop a deeper understanding of:

What's going on in my life "here and now"?

Where and why am I stuck?

What obstacles are preventing me from achieving my goals?

How do I achieve more clarity, awareness, and harmony?

What and how should I change?

Who drains my energy in the journey of life?

Where can I find the strength to accumulate energy to achieve my goals?​

Metaphorical cards personal session

Metaphorical associative cards extract from the subconscious thoughts and feelings, the real motives of your actions and the causes of problems. You will meet your unconscious and dive into yourself. After identifying the problems, you will create an intention for healing, by establishing the desired situation and the steps you have to take in order to achieve your goals..

Your intention for the metaphorical cards can be connected to:

Problems in relationships (existing or lack of relationship)

Life circumstance that you want to change

Problem of choice

Financial difficulties

Career

Health problems

Personal numerology reading by your birthday

Numerology reading will help you to find out what you must break through to be successful in your relationships with yourself and with others, and to live a fulfilled life by understanding who you are and why you are here on this planet.

Tantric Numerology is simply a useful tool for understanding one's strengths and weaknesses - allowing us to work on the weaknesses and utilize the strengths more effectively. If you are aware of a weakness or imbalance in one particular area of your energy structure, you can focus on strengthening and balancing using the tools of Yoga and meditation.

Aroma Psychology 

Aroma psychology is a technique that allows you to determine the characteristics of a person's psycho-emotional state. This is the answer to many questions related to you. If most of the time you live in captivity of negative emotions, depression, irritability, you cannot find yourself or your purpose. If you want to improve your life and open streams of abundance in all areas, then this diagnostic is for you.

Your subconscious mind will choose exactly those essential oils that can destroy negative attitudes and open harmony. Based on the results of the Aroma diagnostic, an individual resource blend will be created, which you can use for 21 days.

Essential oils have access to the limbic system of the brain, also called the "emotional brain." It is there that the feelings and emotions of difficult and traumatic situations that we cannot control are blocked and stuck. These feelings negatively affect our health, relationships and destiny.

Essential oils are able to penetrate the limbic brain and break down the blocks that keep you from being happy. Scents have subconscious or unconscious effects on our mental states, help to show more positive personality traits, and therefore make us happier. This is an amazing tool of self-knowledge for talking with your subconscious and Soul, from which you will receive answers to exciting questions that are hidden in ourselves.

Your experience on the retreat will include participation in 4 workshops.
