New Year's Spiritual Retreat France
A midwinters’ dream. With pagan poetry into the new year. A yoga, meditation, and ritual retreat. You will use these tools for your vision quest. The teachings of the rough nights (Rauhnächte), the days between the last and the new year, will guide you. Working with the past, present and future, to meditate, manifest, materialize - figuring out anything you want and need to let go, to release, reinvent, and recreate. Making space for you to thrive and move towards your best.

Their cook is very creative in vegan cooking, so everything is clean and fresh and easy to digest. The dinner will be in this manner too with some specials. If you can’t live without certain types of food you may add this to a wish list, but please note that we won't serve meat.
