The chakras:

The chakra system originates from the ancient Indian Vedas and can be understood as "the architecture of the soul." Connected to the physical body, these energy centers resonate with breath and the elements. Additionally, they interact with organ energy (meridians), nerve clusters, and the balance of hormones and neurotransmitters.

The life journey through the chakras and their increasingly flowing life force describes the soul's path toward full waking consciousness.

In these standalone day retreats, we explore and experience the energies of the seven main chakras through body, mind, and soul work.

You will learn in a playful and practical way to sense the energy flows, understand their themes, and work with them, enabling you to consciously integrate their power into your life.

Holistic Chakra Experience

Heart Chakra

The power to love and receive love – Connection


In this day retreat, you will center yourself in your energetic core, your heart. The heart has its own nervous system and sends more information to the brain than vice versa. It bridges inner and outer worlds, heaven and earth, and connects you with others. Through breathwork (the air element), we explore the path to this energy center. With yoga, meditation, and other bodywork, we internalize the wisdom of the heart and, through (playful) exercises, experience this wisdom in connection with one another.


Let yourself be enchanted by the gentle strength of your heart

Remember that your heart knows what is true

Experience that love is a large part of who you are

Holistic Chakra Experience

Root Chakra

The power to be here – in this body, this life, on this earth, in this moment



In this day retreat, you will get to know the qualities of your root chakra and experience the awakening of this power. You will learn how this energy center connects to your physical body and how communication flows.



Connect with your foundation, your roots, and Mother Earth.

Trust your right to exist and to have.

Feel that you are safe.


Connecting with the group and the subtler layers of the self, we will explore the root chakra's potential in a practical and playful way. We will use asanas and other forms of bodywork; meditation, visualization, and nonviolent communication techniques; and embrace silence to increase awareness. We will conclude with a ceremony.
