Individual Retreat 8 days

The retreat is intended for highly sensitive people, people who are sensitive to stress, lightworkers or anyone who would like to go on a journey of self-discovery and self-improvement in a healing environment and relax at the same time!

Tailor-made trip

Spend a week in a rustic gîte or charming chambre d’hôtes in picturesque Alaigne. This serene village in the Languedoc (Cathar country) is surrounded by rolling vineyards and waving wheat fields, with panoramic views. Wake up to the chirping of birds and the sun heralding a new day. In this healing environment you can recharge and work on themes that are important to you. Hostess and therapist/soul coach Désirée is ready to make your week an unforgettable experience.

Nearby you will find attractions such as Carcassonne, Limoux, Toulouse, Bugarach, Rennes-le-Château, Alet-les-Bains and Fontaine-des-Amours. If you have your own car or rent one, you can explore these sights. Don’t worry if you don’t have transport – half-day excursions are included. Start your mornings with a meditation ritual to lay a solid foundation. Then enjoy a home-cooked breakfast in your gîte. A shop where you can buy delicious croissants is just a 2-minute walk away. Prefer a served breakfast and being pampered? That’s possible too. During your stay, you will receive 4 individual sessions, during which you can work on pre-determined themes. In addition, there is a half-day excursion on the programme to explore the area. If you have your own transport (car or rental car), you can explore more if you wish. Fill your days with activities such as walking, lounging in the garden, reading a good book, painting, meditating, making a collage or snuggling up by the wood stove on cold days.
