Awaken to Your Nature/Easter Retreat

And just like that…
Winter opened cold bleary eyes to
the newborn colors of spring.
Welcome to ‘AWAKEN YOUR TRUE NATURE’ Retreat
March 29th-april 1st, 2024 Chateau D’OEX – GSTAAD VALLEY, SWITZERLAND

After a long hibernation, in springtime nature in the mountains finally comes back to full life, the temperatures rise and the sun shines! The nature is slowly reawakening from the winter sleep and blooms in all colors. Awaken your senses with meadows of alpine flowers, mountain streams full of water and chirping birds.

​Awakening to Nature and wellbeing retreat has been created with an intention to offer what humans may need the most: realizing the true nature of one’s Self, finding inner balance, grounding within it and re-connecting to mother Earth.

Learning how to reconnect with thyself, with nature around us as well as how to deepen and expand awareness.

​Nature connection practices, such as hiking and forest therapy, are pathways allowing to return to a basis of health and happiness. While exploring the outside environment, we can reconnect with our inner world.

By including movement & yoga, meditation and breathing practices in this journey, we offer the opportunity to explore deeper realms of inner reality which will open the doors to self-compassion, kindness and love. By enjoying these practices daily in a pristine alpine environment, true mental and physical detox will take place. You will learn to truly take care of yourself and expand the experience back home, nourishing the connection you’ve built.

    Testimonial From the previuos Retreats

    ‘I would like to thank Ruta for this opportunity to know myself better and even finding out again who I am. For a very long time i was standing like a wall and looking for excuses…during this retreat with the support of Be Outside Coaching i have discovered things that I would have never discovered by myself. Ruta supports you wholeheartedly and guides you in a way that you open your eyes fresh and start seeing things that you have never seen before. My 5 days with Ruta in the Swiss Alps have been unforgettable. Ruta gives more than one would think is possible. I am just so happy that i could participate in this journey of personal-discovery.’
