A Journey Through Breath, 23-30 August 2026

Welcome to a nourishing week-long journey designed to gently reconnect you with your body, mind, and heart. Through daily guided breathwork, gentle yoga, shamanic journeys, sound healing, wholesome meals, and optional healing therapies, Kathrine and Matoula invites you to slow down, go inward, and reconnect with what is happening on the inside. During this week, you will have the opportunity to:

Release old tension, stress, and emotional blocks
Reconnect with your inner clarity, vitality, and sense of self
Transform your relationship with your body, mind, and emotions

Rebirthing Breathwork is a deeply nurturing and transformative practice that opens the door to profound inner renewal. Throughout the retreat, you be guided on a journey of self-discovery " a gentle yet powerful dive into your inner world " giving you the space to release what no longer serves you. This practice supports detoxification on the deepest levels: mental, emotional, and energetic. It invites clarity, healing, and the setting of heartfelt intentions, allowing you to open to new possibilities and inner freedom. Each day is thoughtfully balanced between movement, rest, and reflection, giving your body and nervous system the time they need to integrate the shifts and insights that arise.

Gentle yoga to support your body, breath, and energy flow
Sound healing session to harmonize your mind, body, and spirit
Shamanic-inspired journeys offering a safe and supportive space for deep inner exploration
Optional energy and healing therapies to release tension and restore balance

All optional sessions are there to support your personal journey " you choose what resonates most with you. By the end of the week, you will leave feeling lighter, and deeply renewed, carrying tools and insights you can continue to use long after the retreat ends.

You enjoy three nourishing, homemade meals each day, lovingly prepared with fresh local ingredients. Dietary needs and preferences are always taken into consideration. There is plenty of time to rest, swim, or simply be. Read a book in a hammock, meditate by the sea, take quiet moments alone, or connect with like-minded souls. This week is about showing up for yourself " in whatever way feels right. We also enjoy a special beach excursion with lunch, blending relaxation, beauty, and connection. Additional treatments such as Massages, Sauna, Cold plunge and a variety of energy work are available on request for those who feel called to go even deeper. For more than 20 years, I have been on a journey of self-discovery and transformation, supported by practices such as yoga, sound healing, energy work, and breathwork " each offering its own powerful doorway to healing.Among them all, breathwork has been the most life-changing for me. It guided me deep within, bringing light to what was hidden and creating space for real, lasting transformation. Today, I feel deeply called to share these tools with you. I warmly invite you to explore your inner world, release old patterns, and reconnect with your clarity, strength, and true power.
