Starting at the ocean side of the red sea and then leading us into a five day desert trip after which we will return to the ocean, bringing with us the experiences of a lifetime crowned with new insights and perspectives that can hence forth enrich your life this journey is one of outer and inner beauty, transformation and potential.
Sleeping under the blanket of the stars, eating food that is freshly made over the fire and a deliberate mix of meditation, gentle movement flows and time to just be and enjoy or have enriching conversations over tea (if you choose to speak ;) ) is part of the treat you will be in.
The program
Every day an exploration, every day possibilities to grow and unlock more of who you are.
We start our journey on the shore of the red sea softening, breathing and cleansing. The first desert day will take us on a journey to powerful and beautiful rock formations and a sunset spot allowing us to experience both the silence and vastness of the desert. In the evening we will then relocate to our base camp for dinner. This is also where we will sleep for the next 4 nights. Each of the coming days we will explore powerful spots near by on foot which allows us to enrich the exercises and trainings with the unique gifts this environment has to offer. On the last day in the desert, after our morning group session and some personal time for everybody to integrate we will hike a bit further to an oasis for a late lunch and then make our way back towards Dahab in the evening. After return, a well deserved rest and dinner we bring the dynamic element of the ocean into play to consolidate the experiences and confirm our state.
Our days are comprised of group exercises and individual training. We will start each day with gentle stretching, some expansive movement and a stillness and focus practice to set the tone for further explorations. After a plentiful breakfast with tea, coffee or simply hot water from the fire our forenoon session takes us into meditation practice (individual to every person) to help us become more grounded in the present moment and our body. Different spots that we will explore support this phase to individual exploration. An extensive lunch break with plenty of possibilities
to chill and enjoy by yourself, or engage in deep, enriching conversations gives space for integration, nourishment of the body and savor the beauty of the simplicity of the moment.
In the afternoon session we combine movement, playful exploration and deep learning and re-write the programs on which our body runs building an unshakable foundation for health, well-being and inner balance that integrates emotions, thoughts, our energy and higher consciousness.
