Invite Lightness into Your Life: Yoga, Community, and Archery Retreat
Join Silas and the team of ‘Die Pfeilerei’ on November 30th, 2024, for an immersive half-day retreat.
Held in the picturesque setting of an old hay shed surrounded by hills, with views of the Swiss Alps, this retreat is designed to bring you back to your center through a mix of yoga, community, and archery.
We'll start our day with a yin yoga class to drop into your body and mind, followed by a delicious brunch to nourish you from the inside out. After brunch, we'll dive into a meditative archery workshop, where you'll have the chance to embrace your inner state.
You can expect this day to come with all the yoga, nourishing food, arrows, and the unique magic that only happens in a retreat setting.
Price: 118 CHF
Yin Yoga Immersion
We’ll begin the day with a grounding Yin Yoga practice, where long-held postures will allow you to explore the deeper layers of your body and mind. Through gentle pranayama and moments of stillness, you’ll soften into your own presence. This session will also weave in the philosophical parallels between the inner work of yoga and the mindfulness required in archery. The pause, the breath, the focus—both on the mat and with the bow—invite you into a space of reflection and calm.
We have a limited amount of yoga mats. But if possible please bring your own Yoga mat & props.
Archery Workshop
‘Archery is a mirror of your inner state.’
Stand, breathe, focus the senses, feel the tension in your whole body and release it, breathe out….
While shooting one arrow, we connect with the whole body on one focus. Experience archery as active meditation in one flow out of the center into the center, This practice gives you a better awareness of your physical and psychological strength as well as calming down and re-centering you in your daily life.
Price: 118 CHF
Maximum Participants: 10-12
Please Note:
Please consider dressing as an onion (layers). Yoga and Brunch will be cozy inside, but the Archery workshop will take part outside. We will light a fire nearby to keep you warm in between shots!
After the retreat, you are welcome to stay and explore the beautiful surrounding scenery with a little walk. There are also loads of good restaurants around where you can let your day come to a mindful end with family and friends.
