Aeracura Five Elements Retreat

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Aeracura 5 Elements Retreat with Joy and Rowan

5 Elements

We welcome you to join us in this healing journey where we will connect deeply to the 5 elements of Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Ether and discover the power of ritualised living. Each day of the retreat will be dedicated to a different element. Working with these elements gives us a greater understanding about ourselves and how we can feel balance and harmony within us. We will learn different approaches towards the Elements from Aryuveda, Traditional Chinese Medicine and Yoga. Together we will explore ancient practises of  breathwork, bodywork, yoga and qigong in guided classes that have been designed to open up our understanding of each element. We will immerse ourselves in powerful sound baths of gong, crystal bowls and koshi bells that use sacred frequencies to heal our energetic and emotional bodies.Together we will perform Elemental Ceromonies and celebrate with devotional medicine and ecstatic dancing to re-connect us with our free-spirited inner-child who reminds us to play with life. Gentle plant medicines such as Cacao will be offered in ceromonial use and we will learn how to invoke the plant spirits to assist our healing journey. 

We also offer additional trauma release craniosacral therapy, tibetan massage and bodywork specialised in helping people with pain relief, emotional issues, mobility issues and chronic pain in joints or muscles.

Surrounded by a supportive team, in a carefully held space, and with the positive energy of other like-minded sharing the journey, unearth the courage to listen to your innate wisdom and to appreciate your sensitivity – reconnecting you with your power, your abundance and your beauty.

Ku-nye Tibetan massage combined with Cupping therapy techniques

assists on your healing path and well being.

A holistic system to balance and purify the five elements, restoring a harmonious flow of energy and vitality at the meridian channels while it promotes general health and well being by clearing and sharpening the sensory organs and supporting the function of the internal organs. It is beneficial as a stand-alone treatment as well as a preventive measure for illnesses and a supportive treatment in conjunction with other modalities (the person may receive consultation on diet, herbs, and health). It includes techniques such as applying warm organic herbal oils to the body, manual tissue manipulation, deep tissue work, identifying and acting on specific points, mobilizing the joints, and warming the body. Also includes gentle external therapies such as hot or cold herbal compresses, herbal and mineral poultices and application of moxa or cupping. Cupping by its exclusive ability to draw outwards excess fluids and toxins and support a myriad of positive reactions likely to benefit the fascia, supplies the impetus for positive change in a rapid, dynamic and enduring way, while simultaneously pulling in freshly oxygenated blood and nourishing qi. A new cycle begins with the replication of healthier cells turning into healthier systems that leads to wellness, despite age or history.

A fascinating experience where people descend into a profound state of relaxation, with roots that go back to indigenous tribes, ancient greek, chinese, tibetan and arabic cultures. These techniques survived until our days because it is remarkably effective on a big range of possibilities such as respiratory conditions, chronic pain, anxiety, insomnia, headache, nervous tension, post-injury trauma, cellulite, sluggish colon and many more.
