Autumn retreat 2023
We offer yoga & hiking holidays to you to come and unwind for a few days in the beautiful Chamonix valley at the foot of the glaciers!
This moment is an invitation to come back to yourself, to clear up your head, your mind, your heart, to set up new habits, to recharge your batteries by walking and reconnecting to this grandiose nature and to each person around us.
We welcome you in our beautiful chalet "Edelweiss" This year, luxurious and cocoon and perfect to enter into autumn, with extremely comfortable rooms, delicious cuisine, a terrace with views of the mountains and a large garden facing Mont Blanc.
Every day, delicious vegetarian meals will be served by our "fairy cook".
We will have daily practices of yoga, meditation, dance, rituals taught by Blanche and Mathias.
We start each morning with a guided meditation, followed by a yoga practice and a dip in cold water (Optional)
After the brunch, we will go hiking to access our next space in nature, near the Glacier Energy where we will discover purification ritual and connection with the elements inspired by India, Bali and others country where we travelled and lived!
On the way back, it is a time of pause, of integration for all, the time to receive a massage, a treatment, to read in peace, at the corner of the fireplace if necessary or to listen to its crackling and silence.
After the break, we deepen the different topics around personal development as well as a practice.
A delicious meal will be served at the end of the day

Yogi Blanche:
The approach and the wish of Blanche in her stays is to reconnect with you, that is to say all the parts of yourself, light and shadow, yin and yang by going to find our keys of life where they are hidden using different tools.
Through the depth of meditation, yoga, hikes, moments of "Noble silence", authentic relationship exercises, dances of being, dynamic meditations, visualizations, tantra, with our voice, we bring all that is buried to the surface so that we can better understand ourselves and thus continue to move forward in peace on this wonderful path of sacred life.
We re learn to set in motion what has frozen in us, to dance with life, in us and with the other around us who are part of our daily life.
Each trip is a truly powerful and transformative journey of initiation that allows us to leave serene, light, strong and free.
Accompanied by Mathias, we created two unique trips this fall, each of which emerges united, transforming, happy, reconnecting, with new friends, new "goals"... like a big breath of fresh air, a renaissance...all his words that were used in the returns of his many people who came to meet us in France or elsewhere... and who continue to come back to relive the inner journey together as soon as they feel the need for it for 8 years! Together we create a valuable and necessary toolbox in its sometimes complicated times that we live.
