Rovena Šebánová & Zuzana Dobromila Bartovicová, in collaboration with Retreat Residence Edenium, are preparing a 5-day Ayurvedic cleansing retreat for you!
Hello…
I warmly invite you to join a 5-day retreat in the beautiful nature, focusing not only on detoxifying the body and mind but also on developing Yoga and meditation practices, education, and finding inner balance, energy, and nourishment for the active summer period ahead.
Spring is a time of awakening for nature after the winter sleep, and similarly, we also need to kickstart the new cycle of the year. Our digestion needs to be lightened, our body calls for cleansing, and a reboot of our immunity. What could be a stronger combination than this regular spring ritual, connected with the healing energy of nature and a deeper connection with ourselves through movement and inner stillness? Spring also brings a time of illness in our society, which we seem to accept as a normal part of our lives. From my experience, regular spring and autumn fasts are one way to reset to a new normal.
Allow yourself to be invited and take responsibility for your health.
Over the past 50 years, the number of chronic illnesses has increased by 50%, despite having more information in the field of science than ever before and the rapid development of Western medicine. However, if we do not realize the crucial connection between our physical body and psychological balance, the healing process becomes unconscious groping, and we cannot experience the state of full health potential. The increasing consumption of chemical medications is far from truly understanding what our body is trying to tell us through the voice of recurring symptoms.
I have gone through a long cleansing journey myself, experiencing repeated health problems and surrendering control of my health to doctors, which is now 8 years in the past, and I feel gratitude for discovering the inner healer within me, who is present in each of us.
During these 5 days, you will experience a rich program focused on holistic health care. We will focus on our stomach and its wisdom.
In addition to completing an intensive Ayurvedic spring fast focused on body detoxification, we will also explore other topics related to health.
Topics we will cover during the retreat:
- Digestion, elimination, food quality (Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas), and its impact on our health
- Ayurvedic view on nutrition and digestive disorders
- Nourishing in nature, eco-psychosomatics in practice
- Lecture on the nervous system – sympathetic vs parasympathetic, stress, and its impact on health, evening guided relaxation
- Morning awakening through gentle restorative Yoga and mindful movement
- Emotional Focusing – conscious work with emotions
- Mindfulness meditation in nature
- Food addiction, emotional overeating, eating disorders, and dopamine
- Morning meditation and stillness
- Genetics and epigenetics in the healing process, or how everything is interconnected, not just in the stomach
- Movie Yoga – documentary screening
- NLP – using neurolinguistic techniques to rewrite and transform undesirable thought and behavior patterns, achieving goals, overcoming obstacles, and more
- Healing time in nature, or what we can learn from plants and animals
- Food intake regulation – hunger vs craving, intuitive eating, mindful nutrition
- Morning Native American meditation
About the facilitators:
Rovena Šebánová:
I have been dedicated to holistic approaches to physical, mental, and emotional health for 16 years. My approach is informed by my personal journey of deep healing. I intuitively combine touch therapy, Yoga, meditation practice, breathwork, somatic practices, craniosacral biodynamics, and various theoretical concepts, including philosophical themes, psychology, process-oriented psychology, neurology, epigenetics, eco-psychosomatics, existential psychotherapy, and Eastern traditions. I trust my inner healer and believe that health is our natural state of being. My purpose is to provide a safe space for others and guide them on their healing journey, as I believe we can continuously learn from each other. I am certain that many of us are searching for answers to what it means to be a HUMAN.
