Beyond Voice & QiGong UK Retreat

Beyond Voice: A Transformative Journey of Sound and Self-Expression

Inspired by the wisdom of the 5 elements we will balance our energies and find ourselves in a place where we can tap into our deepest self through the pracrtice of QiGong and voicework. Discover the power of your voice and unlock your creative potential in a nurturing environment designed to heal, connect, and expand your true essence. 

The Five Elements of Chinese Medicine

This year, "Beyond Voice" is enriched with the ancient wisdom of Chinese Medicine, specifically the Five Elements (Water, Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal). Our special guest, Roxani Eleni Garefalaki, a Five Elements Acupuncturist and QiGong teacher, will guide us through this journey. Roxani will deliver an introductory talk on the Five Elements and teach QiGong each morning, helping you align and balance your energy. You'll get an insight on how this incredible martial art is used for healing and curing diseases, and how the elements play a role in your personality, your health and your energy levels.

Throughout the retreat, you will participate in five voice activation sessions, each inspired by one of the elements. Roxani will provide insights into each element, which we will then integrate into our creative practice, using intention, breath, movement, and sound to explore and express our inner landscapes.

Special Activities:

• Voice Bath with Blue Lotus: On the second evening, journey into an Altered State of Consciousness through sound, allowing your voice to guide you to the answers you seek within. Blue Lotus will help us to get further and deeper in.
• Fire Circle: On the final night, gather around the fire to share expressions, poetry, songs, and stories. We encourage you to bring your own contributions to this intimate, sacred space around grandfather fire.
