ABOUT THIS RETREAT
Holotropic Breathwork is a highly experiential work recommended for those interested in their personal and spiritual growth through deep inner exploration. Stan's Grof basic concept is that the wisdom of our 'inner healer' will direct us and bring to our consciousness what is best and most healing for us at any given moment. This 2-nights retreat consists of Holotropic Breathwork sessions with music, focused bodywork, Mandala drawing as well as group sharing. Orr Hot Springs is an ideal setting to access deep self exploration in a safe environment and enjoy the integration of the experience in the healing waters of the hot springs.
