One Day Retreat: A Gift to Yourself ✨

Over dit evenement

Do you spend a lot of time during the December season taking care of others, giving your energy and attention to everyone around you but yourself? Are you ready to slow down and make some time for yourself?

That’s why we, Isabella (sound therapist and yoga teacher) and Rachelle (Reiki practitioner and yoga teacher), have created this special day just for YOU. Where you don’t have to give, do, or achieve anything. Instead, you get to receive, recharge, and reconnect with yourself.

On Sunday, January 24th, we’ll gather in the beautiful space of De Roos, nestled by Amsterdam’s Vondelpark, for a day of self-care, creativity, and deep nourishment.

Through cacao, gentle movement, a creative activity, restorative practices, Reiki, and sound healing, you’ll have the space to slow down, reset, and simply be.

You’ll also receive a thoughtfully curated goodie bag filled with lovely products to bring a little extra self-care into your everyday life.

The programme:
10:00 AM — Arrival with a cup of herbal tea
10:30 AM — Opening ceremony with ceremonial cacao, a soft yoga flow & setting intentions
12:00 PM — Nourishing lunch by De Roos & free time to relax or explore Vondelpark
1:00 PM — Creative surprise: creating a gift to take home
3:00 PM — Restorative practice with hands-on Reiki by Rachelle & sound healing by Isabella
4:30 PM — Closing circle

A day just for you 🤍

You spend so much time giving to others. Now it’s time to give something back to yourself.

Come as you are, let yourself be cared for, and leave feeling rested, inspired, and nourished, with a little reminder to carry that feeling home with you.

Practical Information:
Date: Sunday, January 24th
Time: 10 AM – 5 PM
Location: De Roos, Pieter Cornelisz Hooftstraat 183, 1071 BW Amsterdam, Netherlands

Contraindications:
Cacao is a gentle and safe plant medicine. However, there are some cases in which it is not recommended to consume it if you:
- Have cardiovascular issues
- Use antidepressants
- Are pregnant
We advise you to consult your general practitioner if you are unsure. Otherwise, you can always reach out to us before the ceremony. We will also provide herbal tea that you can drink instead of the cacao, and you can also decide to drink just a few sips or have an adjusted dose.

How to Prepare
- We strongly advise you not to drink coffee on the day of the ceremony.
- We strongly advise you not to consume drugs or alcohol the day before or on the day of the ceremony.
- We advise you to have a light breakfast

The studio provides yoga mats, blankets, and pillows. You’re very welcome to bring your own if that feels more comfortable.

You are welcome to bring:
- Comfortable, layered clothing (warm socks recommended)
- Your journal and a pen
- Anything that helps you feel supported and at ease, whether that's an extra cushion or blanket
- An item for the altar that means something to you (optional)

We provide the cacao, water, tea, lunch, and everything we need for the creative activity. You also get a goodie bag full of beautiful things to take home and nourish yourself even more.

Cancellation Policy:
Tickets are non-refundable. If you are unable to attend, you are welcome to sell or gift your spot to someone else. We're always happy to help you find a replacement, but refunds cannot be provided.

If you have any questions, doubts, or special requests, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

We look forward to sharing this beautiful and healing day with you.

With love,
Isabella and Rachelle
