"Let your Heart be touched by the Miracles that happen when you feel profoundly connected and don’t have to be anybody!’
A Journey from the limits of the Mind to the Wisdom of the Heart.
What we will do and what will happen
Join us to free our mind walking through amazing Landscapes while exploring and discovering Madeira's Nature and richness. Although we will spend a lot of time walking, the real focus of the event is to grow into a new attitude of connecting to the other participants and to ourselves.
An attitude of being with each other in a very different way that creates connection and trust, explores the worlds of each other and acknowledges and appreciates what "is" without wanting it differently or changing anything about it.
Transformation happens when we welcome what is!
Comminicating and relating like this is very relaxing for our nervous system and activates our self-healing powers so that valuable parts of ourself can reemerge and enrich our and other people's lives. Because the secret to inner peace, happiness and fulfillment is within us and emerges from inside.
There will be morning and evening activities on most days before and after heading out into nature in order to get acquainted with the new attitude of being with each other.
Are you ready for the Adventure and to embrace your most profound Being?
What you will take away from this event
● More clarity about your beliefs, coping and compensation strategies, attachment styles and why you are the way you are
● More compassion with difficult parts, states and emotions of yourself and others
● More capacity to hold space and accompany others emotionally meeting them with humility, curiosity and compassion
● Equal opportunities for more introverted people to express themselves and feeling seen and heard without having to compete with more outgoing people
Rental Cars
We will rent cars and share the cost and fuel among all participants. Rental cars are pretty affordable on Madeira and the cheapest offer I have found was 27 euros per day. We will drive 777 km with the planned program if you'd like to calculate fuel cost. We will be 4 people in each car to make sure that all our luggage fits in.
Preparation
We will meet one or more times personally or online (Zoom) to discuss the details and to exchange our experience. All questions can be asked.
Modification of the itinerary, schedule and plan
If we all agree we can do modifications to the planned places to visit, schedule and plans it seems too much, too stressful or maybe even too little for some of us. In spite of the above indicated program the daily activities will be decided spontaneously. Depending on weather conditions we might shift activities and do any of the other planned tours.
Program
