SPRING EQUINOX
SHAMANIC HEALING RETREAT
21-24th of March ’24
Poland (Dolny Śląsk)

4 extraordinary days in the Polish Mountains where we meet within the world of wisdom and medicine through work with the body, breath and mind.

Reconnect with yourself on a deeper level by breaking old habits. Find your inner peace and expand your mind. Experience more joy and love as magic spreads in your life.

Come with me to one of the most extraordinary meetings that I have the honor to organize this year.

These will be 4 special days, where we will delve into shamanic ceremonies, meditation, conversations, and work with the body and breath. We will move to the world of silence with sound baths. We will stay close to nature surrounded by the magical Mountains. All this with experienced and highly qualified trainers.

Embark on a transformative journey at our Shamanic Healing Retreat, where ancient wisdom meets modern healing practices. Nestled in the heart of nature, our serene retreat provides a sacred space for self-discovery and rejuvenation. Led by experienced guides and teachers, our immersive programs offer a blend of traditional rituals, meditation, and holistic therapies.

Participants engage in soul-searching ceremonies, guided by the rhythmic beats of drums and the aromatic embrace of sacred herbs. Through these rituals, individuals explore the depths of their consciousness, unlocking inner wisdom and addressing emotional blockages.

Nature plays a vital role in our retreat, serving as a powerful ally in the healing process. Forest walks, meditation amidst ancient trees, and connecting with the elements amplify the transformative energy of the experience.

Whether seeking emotional healing, spiritual growth, or simply a respite from the demands of modern life, our Shamanic Healing Retreat offers a sacred space for profound personal transformation. Join us on this journey of self-discovery and healing, reconnecting with the ancient wisdom that resides within us all.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
Expect everything and nothing, keep an open mind and heart. Bring your intention with you, then surrender and give space to the magic.

If you don’t have your intention, just come without it. It is not a must-have condition for participation. We will help you clarify it during your trip.

We will meet in a small group of up to 10 participants.

Ceremonies and activities

Cacao Ceremony (Agata)
Cacao, also known as the “Food of the Gods,” is a gentle yet powerful plant medicine for the heart.
Ancient Mayan texts described the cacao ceremony as “the opening of the heart.” Modern research also shows that the active ingredient in cacao, theobromine, is able to dilate blood vessels and stimulate the heart in particular. Ceremonial Cacao is carefully prepared and programmed (through energy and intention) to serve participants for their highest and greatest good.

Work with the body and breath (Dorota)
Yoga is a combination of work with the body, breath and mind. Body and mind interpenetrate each other. The state of mind affects our well-being and health; similarly, the state of our body influences our energy, vitality and attitude towards the world.
However, breathing is the most important source of energy. Yoga says that the length of a person’s life is measured not by years, but by the number of breaths taken. The longer and fuller our breaths, the greater our vitality.

During this unique trip, working with your body and breath will prepare you for later work with your mind during the ceremony.

Yoga practice allows you to unblock the energy found in the body, start its flow, improving your well-being, but also giving you deeper insight into yourself: your emotions, thoughts, feelings.
The Yoga session will be conducted with the aim of activating this flow, through gentle and at the same time smooth sequences in a Slow Flow atmosphere.

Breath work is a bridge between the body and the mind. It is through Pranayama and breathing cleansing techniques that your mind will become calm, calm and open, and you will feel ready for a further journey into yourself.

Sound bath (Agata)
Sound therapy activates the parasympathetic nervous system, balancing it.
Instruments such as crystal bowls, drums, bells, toning and other action operating in a state of falling current. They help in removing toxins from the body and clearing the mind. But also relax, relax and engage in the world of music and sounds.

Meet your guides

“I have always been a musician and an artist at heart. Music has been present in my life for as long as I can remember. It is my second skin, the one I breathe and dream with. It is my personal language and my medicine. Thanks to my shaman teachers from Portugal, over the years I have learned how to guide others and help them connect with their inner selves through music.”

There are so many factors that influence your skin. From genetics, to environmental, to
emotional tendencies. That it is in no way surprising that most over-the-counter skin care
products fail to deliver on their promises.

Caring for your skin means caring for yourself from the inside out. Believing in an internal rest, hydration, a quality diet, facial exercise, and natural beauty treatments as well as emotional self-care. Using only natural therapies and products is a key in Magda’s practice. Skincare is her passion and her craft.
