Program

This getaway is designed to enhance all your senses! Workshops, exquisite gastronomic delights, and a great “homey” atmosphere so typical of the Portuguese will be the stage of a personal journey through scent, touch, palate, vision, and sound.

Born in the cusp of the Yin era, the age of Aquarius, the transition from masculine times to feminine times where competition loses strength giving way to cooperation, power, and control fades away to see the rising of respect and understanding as your core value.

What your parents taught you doesn’t serve you anymore, or them for that matter, and you work every day to shine this new light, this new world you see in your daily dreams, to your elders and children.

You grew up focused on « learning to be better » believing that your only obstacle was the others, the competition, constantly comparing and put in check before our fellow humans. Times have changed and people are learning and adapting to what is surging from the deepest lakes of your subconscious, listening to your inner self more than to structure, rules, and norms.

You are all together. The Life Journey is personal and inside each one of you, it can only be lived in cooperation and not a competition.

Instructors

Vera Thâe

Vera is the founder of Thâe Retreats, an organization that offers body and soul experiences and develops tailor-made life-changing journeys. Vera started to open her "house" to host all the souls who wish to experience rituals and workshops, dig deep in the meaning of life and the self, meet like-minded people, and relax while taking care of the body. Living in Thailand has changed her journey and thirst for knowledge on the psychology of the self and to add up to the 15 years experience of intuitive work through Tarot, she is now a certified life coach and massage therapist.

Chris Koch

The main topics of his training were the principles of the elastic and empty force as well as the hermetic principles of Franz Bardon. Deeper Insights into martial arts and body systems, Qi Gong (Kung), Systema, MES (Streetfighting and Self Defense), and Pressure Point Fighting. Through further education in Thailand, he became aware of the topic of the body's own energies (Life Force, Qi, Prana). With no (really non) any esoteric / religious background on his part, he learned many different techniques of creating, managing, optimizing, and using energy for martial arts and his healing system.
