We’re gathering this summer again at the beautiful open-air yoga shala in the woods of Meilen. A serene environment to dive deep into around 3,5 hours of connecting to yourself with the sounds of birds, a summer breeze, and a gently flowing river. Summer Magic is a Ceremony Concept to invite in a retreat feeling in Zurich.

Am I worthy of my desires, needs, visions and wishes?

Am I worthy of deciding to not want to carry the heavy backpacks anymore? Of my weight, others weight and expectations? What do I expect from myself? And why? Are these truly my desires? Who am I actually?

This journey is an invitation to tune into what your personal definition of lightness and self-appreciation are beyond cultural standards. What makes you feel good? What creates regular pressure on your system? What does it mean to feel lighter? What do you want to release? Forgive?

What are some desires you’ve been pushing back? How would it look to act from a place of self-appreciation in your daily life? Where are you denying yourself pleasure, lightness and the right to change your mind or choose something that feels truly good to your heart, body and mind? What does it mean to take care of yourself?

This yin yoga journey will soften our full body with a focus on our solar plexus and heart space – so that we feel our inner passion and let ourselves be moved by our heart. Kamala is the goddess of abundance, fertility, lightness and beauty. We will do her mantra meditation that is focussing on planting the seeds of our heart wishes and water them, so that they can bloom.

How can we bring more beauty in our lives?

And where can we give ourselves some more grace?
