Dans un quotidien souvent chargé, il est facile de se sentir épuisé, saturé et en manque d’espace pour souffler. S’accorder un vrai moment de relâchement devient alors essentiel. La méditation est reconnue pour ses bienfaits sur le bien-être physique, mental et émotionnel, tout en aidant à retrouver ce centre paisible en soi.
Rejoignez Jane pour une méditation guidée dans le Walnut Barn ou, si la météo le permet, pour une séance en plein air. Installez-vous au cœur de la nature, bercé par le calme des chevaux qui paissent à proximité, ou prenez place parmi les moutons amicaux pour vivre une belle connexion avec les animaux. Leur présence offre un doux rappel de l’importance de rester dans l’instant présent. Vous pouvez aussi opter pour une méditation en marchant, avec Jane qui vous accompagne à travers des exercices de bain de forêt.
Les séances durent généralement entre 1 heure et 1 h 30 et se terminent parfois autour d’une tisane au Walnut Barn, à savourer à votre rythme. L’expérience comprend également des sons délicats et apaisants de carillons Koshi, de flûte de style amérindien et de bols chantants en cristal.
