CULINARY
Made with love, dedication and creativity
In the Zen tradition it is widely believed that the most important element within a yoga retreat setting is neither the Priest, nor the Lama, nor the students themselves – it is the Chef, the Tenzin.
This Tenzin’s primary purpose is to nourish the physical bodies of the participants, yet he also uses food as a medium to relax the mind, touch the soul, and invite the spirit to dance within its sacred temple.

MEDITATION, COACHING AND HEALING WITH HORSES
Join Us for Equine Meditation
Meditation and healing with horses combine the profound benefits of mindfulness with the intuitive presence of these majestic animals. In equine-assisted therapy, individuals engage in guided meditation sessions alongside horses, fostering a unique therapeutic environment. Horses, known for their sensitivity and ability to mirror human emotions, help individuals achieve deeper emotional insights and relaxation.
The meditative process around horses promotes a sense of calm and connection, enhancing mental clarity and emotional healing. Participants often report reduced stress, improved emotional regulation, and a stronger sense of inner peace. This holistic approach harnesses the natural bond between humans and horses, creating a powerful space for personal growth and healing.
