DISCOVER THE HIDDEN DEPTHS OF YOUR SOUL
Are you ready to open the doors to the most profound parts of yourself? This retreat is an invitation to explore your inner landscape—your dreams, your fears, and the uncharted territories within.
We all carry patterns, often rooted in childhood, that hold us back in ways we don't always understand. These old imprints can unconsciously guide our decisions, leaving us stuck. The path to real change and deep healing begins with the courage to face these hidden aspects of ourselves. It might feel easier to avoid them, but lasting transformation happens when we turn towards the very things we've kept hidden.
This retreat is about rediscovering and reintegrating the forgotten parts of your soul. Over the years, we may have buried our authentic selves under layers of protection—splitting off from vital parts of who we are. These "shadows" remain within, waiting for the moment we ask them to reveal themselves. Often, this journey brings us face-to-face with our inner child, a part of us that has long been seeking to be acknowledged, nurtured, and healed.
As we reintegrate these lost aspects, we reclaim our natural gifts: creativity, vitality, joy, spontaneity, presence, and love.The layers of stress begin to dissolve, making way for a more authentic and fulfilling life.
This retreat offers a safe, supportive, and expertly guided environment to embark on this healing process. You'll be supported by experienced facilitators who are there to guide you, while the tranquil surroundings and the company of like-minded participants will hold space for your personal journey of transformation.

Hi, I'm Alexandre!
With over 30 years of experience on a deep spiritual path, I support individuals in breaking free from old patterns and reconnecting with their true selves. My work is rooted in guiding people through transformative processes, helping them rediscover their inner strength and wisdom. I believe that real change happens when we face our shadows with compassion and trust the journey toward healing.
Through Soul Coaching, I integrate meditation, somatic practices, and spiritual guidance to help others embrace their authentic selves. I’ve spent years leading retreats, including dark retreats, where I offer a safe, nurturing environment for deep personal transformation.
Hello, I'm Severin!
Guiding others to live from the depths of the heart brings me immense fulfillment. I am passionate about creating authentic connections, holding space for personal transformation, and fostering integrity in relationships. I embrace life's experiences fully, welcoming both the light and the darkness. Connecting with others through kindness, empathy, and vulnerability is my intention, as I believe we have the power to create a legacy of love, peace, and healing.
My wish for you is to experience heart-opening moments that bring meaning to your life, even when they touch deep wounds and evoke emotions. There’s always a profound connection to a spiritual force that supports us on this journey.
Rooted in my love for various teachings, I now combine elements of meditation, Hatha Yoga, astrology, trauma-informed practices, and inner child healing in my work. My approach is grounded in my own experiences.
