Transformational Retreat
“Heart of Healing”
with ancestral forest medicine
11-15 December / Limassol, Cyprus
Experience a profound shift in consciousness at the "Heart of Healing" retreat. Using ancestral forest medicine, music, aromatherapy, psychological inquiry, and gentle bodywork, you'll embark on a journey of transformation, accessing your subconscious and deepening your connection with yourself and the world. This retreat is created to help you heal, grow, and live with greater purpose.
How It Works
This healing retreat focuses on individual exploration, with participants working in small groups without direct interaction. The depth and modality of the experience are tailored to each participant's needs.

Facilitators provide support, but the process is non-directive, allowing participants to delve deeply into their unique experiences.

A gentle atmosphere is created by using such tools as music, aromatherapy, and gentle bodywork. Participants can choose to lie down, move, dance, or be in silence. They have the option to wear eye masks and headphones for deeper immersion, or connect with the surrounding space.

The emphasis is on nonverbal exploration, but discussion is always available if desired. Facilitators are present to ensure comfort and facilitate a meaningful experience.

Feedback
  • I went into the ceremony with no specific expectations but was filled with fears of nausea, physical discomfort, and facing terrifying aspects of my own consciousness. I worried about getting trapped in a mental labyrinth with no escape.

    My fears proved unfounded. The atmosphere and energy of the ceremony were incredibly peaceful and loving. I felt a deep sense of trust in myself and the world. It was like experiencing the love you feel when you see a child playing or the sun setting over a field. While there were moments of internal conflict where I questioned my stance, these feelings were not overwhelmingly negative and did not dominate the experience.

    The ceremony brought about many realizations, most notably that "it's always been within me." I possess a wealth of answers, but in daily life, it's difficult to stop and truly delve into myself. It's been a year, and I haven't been able to spend even an hour in such focused introspection. This experience was like achieving precise focus within myself. I explored and organized my thoughts, finding answers that were almost obvious but had previously been unconscious.

    The ceremony seems to have guided me through a difficult period in my life, which began just a few weeks before. It helped me navigate the challenges I faced.

    The most significant impact was a sense of self-reliance. That was my request: "Who am I at my core?"

    Since then, I've become more attuned to my intuition and spend more time in quiet reflection.

    I wholeheartedly recommend this ceremony to others, but only if they are open to such experiences. Trust and a willingness to listen are crucial. For me, it was a valuable journey inward, providing insights into myself and offering moral support for future challenges.

  • From the first ceremony and interaction with the medicine, it was clear that I wasn't there by chance and I understand how difficult it is to describe the experience of immersion.

    I can say that 80% of the success depends on the guide and facilitators who accompany you, and I immediately clicked with these guys - it's about trust, a safe space, and knowing that you'll be taken care of in the best way possible.

    What specifically these sessions gave me and what I took with me into my life:

    * A sense of my own uniqueness and self-worth (not to be confused with self-esteem)
    * It aligned very well with my therapy - my subconscious, which had been unlocked, kept producing new batches of blocks and traumas, but at the same time, there was inner courage and strength to live through and work through it.
    * Globally, my fears have gone, and trust in myself and the world has appeared.
    * More courage to implement projects and move forward.
    * Acceptance - if something doesn't happen now, believe me, it's better for you in this moment - you'll see and understand why later.
    * Understanding how we are all connected to each other and therefore more respect and care for the people around me.
    * My intuition has sharpened, my sensitivity has increased - I literally feel people from the first meeting, who's on my path and who's not.

    I recommend trying it to literally everyone - it greatly improves the quality of life, mental and physical health.

  • My expectations were simply for some insight, but the ceremony was a complete "WOW" - an existential shift I never anticipated. It was like experiencing the actual flavor of an orange instead of just the word.

    The atmosphere was incredibly safe and peaceful, with gentle bodywork that triggered the release of blocked emotions. It allowed me to connect deeply with my body and expand my consciousness.

    I gained deep insights about connection, gratitude, forgiveness, and the simplicity and directness of life.

    Since the ceremony, I feel more calm, stable, and connected to my emotions. My creativity has increased, and I'm more focused and playful. I've also gained the confidence to pursue big life projects!

    The ceremony impacted every aspect of my life, making me more aware of myself and the world around me. It reinforced the knowledge that life is beautiful and full of love.

    I wholeheartedly recommend this ceremony to anyone seeking a transformative experience. I can't recommend Alex's and Albina's work enough, they have been guides and friends to my personal progress and I'm very grateful for having experienced their talents.

  • It was my first time at this ceremony, and I didn't know what to expect. But from the very first moments, I felt calm and safe in the conversation with the facilitator. Throughout the journey, I could see the facilitator (Sasha) being very attentive and timely in their involvement, which supported me and gave me more freedom in my feelings. The world unfolded within me with vibrant experiences, so impressive that the connection remains to this day. Intuition and sensitivity, having opened up more during the journey, are now more accessible and effective tools for me to perceive the world. I would recommend this kind of journey to people with specific questions and those who are simply exploring themselves. In this enchanting setting and caring space, it is a path to discovery and transformation.

What to expect

Describing this experience to someone who hasn't had it is nearly impossible. Each person's journey is unique, much like a lucid dream where boundaries blur, allowing access to different perspectives and experiences.

Subtle dimensions, energy work, and visionary experiences become more accessible. Out-of-body experiences and astral travel become possible. The process itself is guided, with a clear beginning, escalation, peak, and smooth ending.
