ORIENTAL WISDOM FOR A HEALTHY AND FULFILLED LIFE
Oct 12/13, 9:00 – 17:00
Do you want to take charge of your physical, emotional and mental health to live long and healthy?
Step out of your routine with 2 days of total immersion into a world of well-being and personal growth!
Whether you are a beginner or advanced, all levels are welcome!
During these two days, we will demystify millennial practices that have been proven for their effectiveness, while adapting them to our modern Western life:
- Ayurveda (the science of life) is a science of Indian wisdom healing that aims to prevent diseases and promote optimal health for both body and mind.
- Yoga and Meditation are a science taught by Indian sages focused on Self-realization as dependent on the proper functioning of the body and mind. Yoga/meditation and ayurveda have developed simultaneously and are originally practiced together to address: our needs, our physical health and well-being to the development of our higher consciousness.
- Qi-Gong/Tai-Ji is a science of inner alchemy, introduced in China by great sages; it is complementary to the practice of yoga and meditation.
