Switzerland 2022
Inspiration + Rejuvenation, high in the Swiss Alps
July 3-10

Join us for a relaxing energy-balancing detox yoga and deep mind retreat in the rugged mountains of Western Switzerland, surrounded by some of Europe’s most impressive landscapes.

We will spend time meditating, hiking in the mountains, breathing in the tranquility of mountain lakes and streams, practicing yoga and learning new breathing techniques to support the nervous system.

There will be lunar and cosmic rituals as well as transformative group hypnotherapy sessions.

And lots of laughter!

Each guest gets at the opportunity to participate in bodywork/massage workshops with Larisa, hypnotherapy and astrology workshops with Megan and nutrition workshops with Julie Bourquin, of A Life Alive Yoga.

You will leave our retreat feeling recharged, relaxed and energized, and more connected to your dreams and in harmony with your being.

What's unique about this retreat?

Holistic Soul Project offers a truly complete experience. We offer opportunities for profound transformation (physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually), while also providing spaciousness for your own processing and time to yourself or to enjoy your retreat companions.

While meditation and yoga are included in the retreat and form a significant part of the daily structure, we feel that the additional offerings of nutrition, astrology, hypnotherapy, bodywork and massage, truly make our Switzerland retreat, and all of our retreats, a truly next-level experience...
