Why voice is so important?
Our voice is so much more
Our voice is deeply connected to our throat – the energetic center of communication, creativity, emotional expression, and authentic self-expression.
  • A lack of self-confidence, fear of using your voice
  • Discomfort when expressing your truth
  • Difficulty sharing your emotions and inner world
  • A sense that you’re meant for something more, but unsure where to begin
  • Low energy and motivation to create the life you truly want
  • Lack of clarity about your path or purpose

1-day BHAKTI retreat | June 7
Devotional voice activation

"Bhakti" is Sanskrit for devotion — a deep, loving relationship with the Divine. Especially a personal relationship with the Divine (in whatever form). It’s not just a belief system, it’s a feeling, a connection, a path back to your heart — the soul’s home. Soul holds all the answers we often seek outside.
Through theoretical information, devotional singing, guided practices, meditations and deep inner connection, you will explore and open up your authentic true potential!
Join us for a transformative Bhakti retreat, where the power of voice and the wisdom of the heart come together in a sacred journey of self-discovery.
  • Discover ancient Bhakti philosophy - wisdom that will bring clarity about love, service, ego, surrender, divine connection and how to reconnect with your true self
  • Receive tools how to open your heart’s true expression, bringing joy, healing, and a profound sense of unity and how to live from it
  • Come into a deeper relationship with your body, your breath and your power of your voice, your inner truth in life
  • Know how to embody and express your authentic voice in ways that are effective, grounded, and impactful
  • Receive Vocal exercise routine that you can use before you utilize your voice in singing, chanting, speech, teaching, leading etc.
  • Connecting to the core (diaphragmatic breathing) - experience freedom from within
  • Experience warm-up exercises, breathwork, movement practice – release stuck energy with sound
  • Expand, gain confidence and vibrate higher, receiving more joy in life!
  • Reflection exercises to explore inner feelings, devotion, resistance, and personal connection with the Divine.
