EXPERIENTIAL RETREAT EMOTIONAL DETOX '23
In this second edition of the Emotional Detox Retreat, the focus will be to work on how our emotions, that are the base, pillar and structure of our lives, so breathing is guided by Emotion.
Thus, when we understand and assimilate this information and this language, we have the knowledge to work with the tools that will give us a lighter, more balanced and happier life.
This transformation will result in inner peace, which is an exceptional reward for your hard work.
And, in this way, so that you have the ability to manage and channeling your Vital Energy - Prana.
We invite you to meet yourself and together through and practical techniques, such as breathing, postures and purification, we will experience detoxification, revitalization and nourishment of the body, mind and emotions.
A pranic body is a happy body.
Just as we need to eliminate harmful foods and toxins that intoxicate our organism, we must also do a "reset" in the behavioral field, removing negative emotions.
Stress decreases the ability to exercise empathy and we easily accumulate feelings that intoxicate our emotional and mental body.
We need to create new sentimental and emotional habits.
A seed needs a fertile soil to germinate.....Just like your body.
