“Stress is the number 1 epidemic of our time” – Deepak Chopra
If you are regularly facing restlessness, anxiety or other forms of chronic stress that make you feel disconnected from your body or too much in your head, it is usually a sign that your nervous system is not regulated. Our nervous system automatically reacts to stress in a split second, much faster than we can react rationally. When we experience high levels of anxiety, we are constantly living in fight-or-flight mode. In this day and age, many people are experiencing an overactive fight-or-flight response due to an increasingly stressful lifestyle. During this mode, your sympathetic nervous system is activated, which causes your heart rate and blood pressure to increase, your muscles to constrict, and your digestion to take a break. In this state, the body releases cortisol, adrenaline, noradrenaline, and a host of hormones that may decrease white blood cells. Living in fight-or-flight mode takes up an enormous amount of energy, and our bodies cannot keep up with the demands long term. Over time, the body and mind begin to shut down and we get illness and disease as a result.
In this 3 day retreat you will practice and learn techniques to rebalance your nervous system while managing the ups and downs of your daily life. It will help you to reenter a state of calm, mental relaxation and physical ease. The newly gained knowledge can support a long-term shift towards connecting to your inner peace.
What to expect:
- Answers to the questions: How does our nervous system function? What exactly is a stress response? How does it affect our various bodily functions?
- Cultivate greater body awareness to recognize a dysregulation in your own nervous system and release chronic muscular holding patterns locked deep in your body
- Practice & learn different techniques that you can use in your daily life to find your way back to balance
- Vinyasa Yoga and Yin Yoga to activate and calm yourself
- Yoga Nidra and Sound Healing for deep relaxation and integration
- ŌHIA WAVE, a cathartic workout with somatic release that focuses on resetting your nervous system and gaining inner power led by Annika Pfeiffer
- PSYCHEDELIC BREATH® session for self-exploration, stress relief, and emotional healing led by Pia Victoria Thiemann
Expect to come out of this retreat feeling a deep sense of inner peace and freedom, energized, inspired, luminously alive and confident to share your gifts with the world.
We can’t wait to meet you there!
