SUMMARY:1 Day Nature Retreat Montreux Riviera May 16th
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\nLook deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better.\n\n\n\n\n\nA.Einstein\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Montreux Riviera- retreat place\n\n\n\n\nWelcome to the Swiss postcard in style! From the lake & flower promenade to the mountains and vineyards, Montreux Riviera offers a breath-taking landscape that is worth a postcard.\nIt’s an authentic little piece of paradise that has attracted many artists, writers and travellers in search of beauty, tranquillity and… inspiration.\nA unique region, attached to its roots but open to the world, Montreux Riviera, home of the world famous Montreux Jazz Festival & Christmas market.\nMay is the month of bloom in the Alpine Meadows above Montreux.\nNot many now that the biggest treasure is found  above the town- in the forest, waterfalls, tropical – like plants and alpine meadows.\nWild narcissus bloom in May and transform the meadows above Montreux into immaculately white, perfumed landscapes. As soon as the snow melts, the leaves of the narcissi (narcissus radiiflorus) shoot out of the earth and unfold the energy stored in their bulbs to burst into bloom precociously.\nThis narcissi bloom is known since Belle Epoque as ‘May Snow’. At the end of Nature Connection practices, we will also witness the beauty of those flowers.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIntentions of 1 day retreat\n\n\n\n\nThe diversity of the landscape, the natural biodiversity, breath-taking views make this place a unique setting for nature retreat- allowing to experience nature from different points of connection, experiencing the elements, ancient trees, blooming flowers. A delight for the mind, body and soul!\nDuring this one day you will have a chance to experience nature differently vs what you are used to, you will learn about research based benefits of walking and being in a natural setting. As you connect with nature differently, you might notice also that your connection with yourself also shifts.\nTime in nature is restoring, relaxing, rejuvenating.\nYou will learn about holistic wellbeing through nature- physical, emotional and spiritual.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nActivities of 1 day retreat\n\n\n\n\n\n\n​Nature connection practices:  Forest/nature Therapy, connect with 5 senses, explore the 5 elements (Japanese Shinrin Yoku). \n\n\nMindfull walking\n\n\nPlant foraging\n\n\nLearning about holistic wellbeing through nature\n\n\nWalking: 6km, 500m up\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe importance of connection to nature\n\n\n\n\nWhile simply being in a natural environment is beneficial to human health, it is a deeper contact and engagement-connection- with nature that has been shown to promote long-term improvements in mental health and emotional wellbeing.\nLatest research shows that simply going outside  is not enough to improve health on its own. Its what you do with time outdoors that matters. \nNature engagement is how we access the goodness of nature for mental wellbeing- we need to develop a meaningful, more emotional relationship. Time and true moments of connection matter.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis retreat is for you if:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n​Nature connection practices:  Forest/nature Therapy, connect with 5 senses, explore the 5 elements (Japanese Shinrin Yoku). \n\n\nMindful walking\n\n\nPlant foraging\n\n\nLearning about holistic wellbeing through nature\n\n\nWalking: 6km, 500m up\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe importance of connection to nature\n\n\n\n\nWhile simply being in a natural environment is beneficial to human health, it is a deeper contact and engagement-connection- with nature that has been shown to promote long-term improvements in mental health and emotional wellbeing.\nLatest research shows that simply going outside  is not enough to improve health on its own.

The description of the retreat sounded right up my alley, but the actual experience far exceeded what I expected.\nFrom the warm welcome prior to the retreat, the supportive and loving nature of those organising the course as well the other participants. Right to the content of the retreat which was well balanced and inclusive.\nThe worst part was having to leave, but I have every intention to return one day ❤️\nCatriona, UK\nWonderful yoga and nature retreat, Ruta puts a lot of care and effort so participants enjoy every detail and activity. Amazing food with Chef Donata and great yoga with Chris. I am so grateful for this guided time outdoors and the connections we built as a community, I really recommend !\nVirginie, Switzerland\n\n\n \n\n\n\n Your name\n \n\n Your email\n \n\n Event name\n \n\n Your message (optional)\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
