Co-existing in Paradise presents an unparalleled opportunity to not only experience but also deepen authentic and harmonious relationships with oneself, others, and nature. Through a curated blend of experiential workshops, immersive nature experiences, and vibrant community living, participants will embark on a transformative journey of self-discovery and connection in the heart of Brazil's Alto Paraiso. Join us and discover the profound beauty of co-creating a paradise within and around you—an unforgettable experience that resonates long after the retreat ends.
"Where the Rivers are Born" serves as a poetic yet profound metaphor for the essence of our retreat experience. In Alto Paraiso, nestled amidst the awe-inspiring landscapes of Brazil, lies the birthplace of numerous rivers that eventually flow into the mighty Amazon. Just as these rivers originate from this sacred land, our IMMERSION offers participants an opportunity to tap into their own source of renewal, growth, and interconnectedness.
At Co-existing in Paradise retreat, we invite you to embark on a journey of self-discovery and connection that delves into the depths of compassionate practices, sound healing, and immersive nature experiences. Our retreat offers a sanctuary for participants to deepen their connections with themselves, others, and the natural world.
Engage in compassionate listening sessions and meditation practices designed to cultivate empathy, self-compassion, and inner peace, fostering a sense of unity and understanding within the community. Experience the transformative power of sound healing sessions and singing circles, where the vibrations of music and voice create a harmonious space for communal expression and connection. Delve into embodiment practices such as authentic movement and somatic experiences, grounding yourself in the present moment and nurturing a deeper connection with your body. Explore the Way of the Council/Bohm dialogue, facilitating open and honest communication within the group, and fostering a sense of collective wisdom and support. Additionally, engage in dream work and awaken intuition sessions, tapping into the wisdom of your subconscious mind and exploring the depths of your inner knowing. Outside sessions provide hands-on opportunities for exploration, including ceramic workshops that spark creativity and permaculture activities that foster a deeper appreciation for our interconnectedness with nature. Guided excursions to explore the natural wonders of Alto Paraiso offer moments of awe and inspiration, including visits to Aldeia Multietnica, a gathering place where indigenous people from various backgrounds come together to share their wisdom, traditions, and cultural heritage.
