MEET YOUR FACILITATOR
Surrender to the call
​
For me, the biggest motivation in life is the desire to free myself from anything that holds me back to become my truest self.
This requires a deep sense of self-love and self-acceptance.
That's why I created this retreat for women - to share with you practical tools and rituals that can support you on your own journey of liberation.
My goal is to help you cultivate greater self-love so that you can overcome any obstacles in your path and live a more fulfilling, innocent and expanding life.
​
During our time together, we'll explore various techniques for developing self-love, including breath work, meditation, journaling, belief system work after Byron Katie and Self-forgiveness exercises.
Through these practices, you'll learn how to connect with your inner wisdom and cultivate the confidence to commit with a new path in your life.
I'm excited to embark on this journey with you and to support you in creating a life that is truly aligned with your deepest desires and aspirations.
Let's start this journey of self-discovery, self-love and liberation together!

Bie Steenhaut
EquiPassant - Horse Assisted Coach
Bie is a certified Horse Assisted Coach who will introduce you to the knowledge and insights horses can provide. Starting with a body scan, we will explore the message of our body. Through a deep connection with the equine coaches (horses) we develop this further and experience their healing power.
Horses are masters at reflecting what we feel, both consciously and unconsciously. They are extremely empathetic and sensitive. Horses sense but do not judge, they do not adhere to social conventions and are always authentic. This is an enriching encounter and a unique opportunity to experience the wisdom of the horses under professional guidance.

TIna Sahl
Ayurvedic Yoga Massage
Ayurvedic Yoga Massage (AYM) has its roots in Indian tradition. It is a holistic bodywork treatment that combines elements of deep tissue massage, yoga based assisted stretching and breath work into one treatment. Unique to this treatment is the small application of natural oil mixed with Calamus powder, a plant with exfoliating and detoxifying effects. This mix is applied using slow, deep massage strokes with hands and feet.
Receiving a massage during the retreat is particularly beneficial as it enhances the overall experience. It creates a cocoon -like state where self-care is elevated, allowing energy to flow freely and thus promoting deeper emotional and physical release and relaxation.
During the Retreat, TIna Sahl, an Ayurvedic Yoga and Massage Therapist will accompany us to support your wellbeing journey.

Testimonials
I have never felt so safe, so well-contained in a group so quickly! Christina drew together 6 women who’d only just met, and with her calm and quiet wisdom, lead us through just the right vulnerable exercises to bring us out of our shells and make us feel close by the end of the first day! As a therapist and facilitator of workshops and retreats myself, I was so impressed by how she powerfully lead us without ever dominating; it was always clear that her intention was to be 100% there for us. We all benefited from her retreat immensely.
I felt so understood and cared for by Christina right away, that I knew I wanted to work more with her, and signed up for a private coaching session on the second day of the retreat! In all my years of both practicing and going to therapy, I’ve never in one session gone so deep, to such a wounded place and emerged feeling so light, so hopeful! Christina´s Guidance is so safe and effective that she helped me heal a wound that had been with me for ages.
Christina is truly great at what she does - I highly recommend her!
