The Empowerment Retreat Experience
​​​
​
The Empowerment Retreat consists of powerful modalities used and taught by both Melissa + Liz that can help to facilitate deep release of old emotions, experiences and stories held in our bodies. These include meditation, powerful breathwork session, and slow flow yoga.​​
Meditation: Guided meditations are an excellent tool for beginners, and seasoned meditators alike as they provide a focal point and gentle instruction to help you connect and let go of self-judgment.
​
Meditation can help with:
-
Making you more self-aware
-
Stress management
-
Giving the mind rest
-
Reducing negative feelings
-
Lowering resting heart rate
-
Enhance emotional awareness
​
Breathwork: Breathwork is a somatic practice that has long been considered one of the most powerful healing modalities. Breathwork allows the body to return to the rest-relax-digest-repair (Parasympathetic/PNS) state and create the conditions for mental, physical (and spiritual) healing and emotional release.
​
Breathwork can help with:
-
Release of stress hormones from the body
-
Stronger respiratory function
-
Allows us to tap into a deep state of relaxation
-
Releases tension and pent-up energy that is deeply rooted within the subconscious mind
-
Cultivates a powerful connection between mind, body + soul
-
Reduces negative feelings
​
​
Slow Flow Yoga: Connecting the mind + the body through gentle, mindful movement and breathing techniques. Yoga can foster inner peace, mindfulness, and a deeper connection with your spiritual self.
​

​
​​

Group guided meditation
