REWILD
4-day women’s retreat: 29.3.-1.4.24.
OSTERN - EASTER
Bergengel, Kandertal, Bernese Oberland
Is this you?
You have learned to be the “strong & confident” woman. The woman who always smiles. The woman who does everything perfectly. The woman who finds it hard to say no or to confront.
That role has helped you get far in life. You have travelled. You advanced in your career. From the outside it looks like a “great life”, a life full of achievements and happy pictures on instagram.
But something is missing. Deep inside you have a knowing that there is more to life - that there is more within you waiting to break free. Break free of masks of perfection, break free of following other people’s paths, break free of trying to please everyone and above all live up to your own expectations.
You are also tired of playing this role. you are exhausted of trying to do everything perfectly. You are tired of “never enough”.
I invite you to
BREAK FREE & REWILD
I invite you to re-discover the whole of you. You are so much more powerful than you think. I invite you to look at your shadows - the parts you don’t want anyone to see. I invite you to get angry and use the power of anger to rise. I invite you to cry. Stop holding back your emotions. It is safe for you to open up and let it flow.
I invite you to dance like no-one is watching, sing with an open heart, flow just for you.
You can be everything - strong and vulnerable, fast and slow, perfectly imperfect, quiet and loud, light & shadow.
You are everything. It is just waiting to get discovered by you.
Or as Glennon Doyle in the incredible book Untamed puts it:
“So I finally unlocked and unleashed her. I set free my beautiful, rowdy, true wild self. I was right about her power. It was too big for the life I was living, so I systematically dismantled every piece of it. Then I built a life of my own.”
Your travel destination
The Bergengel is a very cozy accommodation with a lot of charm and beautifully arranged spaces to retreat. The former 100-year-old farmhouse has been beautifully renovated and has become a real feel-good place. This is also thanks to the warm-hearted hosts Nick and Sonja, who have fulfilled their dream with this retreat house. The rooms are cozy and simple with a washbasin in each room. Showers and toilets are shared. The yoga room is very bright, cozy and the yoga utensils colorful and inviting.
You will enjoy seasonal & healthy vegetarian meals freshly prepared with love by Sylvia.
Your retreat activities
nature, self-reflection, sound & yoga
Use the power of nature, sound & yoga to gain more access to your inner world. Increase your self-awareness and shine light on your shadows through creative expression. Remove energetic blockages through chanting. Find deep relaxation through sound baths. Access your emotions with the rhythm of drums. Get into flow state by moving through asanas. Connect to your breath.
FIND YOUR WILD.
Let nature be your teacher
Nature teaches us to be wild. Nature moves in cycles and is in constant motion. Nature fades and blooms. Nature trusts. Nature helps you ground and at the same time reach high.
Rewild in nature and through nature.
Women’s Circle
We will be a small group of 12-14 women who will hold space for each other to grow, expand & discover our wild authentic selves. We will reflect individually as well as a group and you get to meet like-minded women who empower each other to step into our own uniqueness. So often all we need is to see that we are not alone. We are all struggling & doubting. We all love & are afraid.
Lanuguages
I will lead this retreat in English & German.
What others experienced on the REWILDING JOURNEY
Dear Selin, Many thanks again for the wonderful Rewild retreat that you ran a few weeks ago! I had an amazing time from beginning to the end….You definitely know how to create a warm and safe space for people to open up and explore. You are very good at reading what is needed and can quickly adapt. Your holistic approach combining yoga, hiking in the nature, dancing, singing, reflecting, meditating, and great discussions with the other workshop participants is making the whole experience very rich and with a lot to take away! All of these combined with an amazing place for accommodation (I slept so well…) and great food experience! Thanks for being the great person that you are and for welcoming us in such a caring way! Looking forward to keeping in touch and to a next opportunity. - Anne-Lise
Sehr empfehlenswert. Ich war in ihrem Rewild Retreat und es wird sicher nicht das letzte Retreat bei Selin gewesen sein. :-) Selin kann mit ihrer authentischen und sympathischen Art eine sehr schöne Atmosphäre schaffen und den Raum für unterschiedlichste Menschen halten. Die Yogapraxis, die Reflexionen in den Sharing Circles, die Wanderungen, das Tanzen und Singen leitet und begleitet sie wunderbar und schafft so sehr schöne, inspirierende und erfüllende Retreattage. Und nebenbei war Retreatort, Unterkunft, Essen und die ganze Organisation rundherum super. Vielen Dank darfür, liebe Selin. <3 - Laila

“If you let yourself shatter and then you put yourself together, piece by piece, you wake up one day and realize that you have been completely reassembled. You are whole again, and strong, but you are suddenly a new shape, a new size. The change hat happens to people who really sit in their pain - whether it’s a silver of envy lasting an hour or a canyon of grief lasting decades - it’s revolutionary. When that kind of transformation happens, it becomes impossible to fit into your old conversations or relationships or pattern or thoughts of life anymore. You are like a snake trying to fit back into old, dead skin or a butterfly trying to crawl back into its cocoon. You look around and see everything freshly, with the new eyes you have earned for yourself. There is no going back.”
Untamed, Glennon Doyle
