At the heart of Ayurveda lives Agni — the Divine Fire.
Agni is the sacred force that governs digestion, metabolism, vitality, clarity of mind, and the ability to fully absorb life itself. When Agni is strong and balanced, we experience energy, emotional stability, healthy digestion, and a deep sense of presence. During seasonal transitions, however, Agni is especially vulnerable, making this a powerful time to consciously restore balance and vitality. In Ayurveda, the month of February marks the transition from Winter to Spring, moving from the Vata to the Kapha season.
Divine Fire – Ayurvedic Retreat is an invitation into deep inner work — a conscious process of restoring your digestive fire, rebuilding vitality, and aligning with the natural rhythms of seasonal change. Rooted in the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda, this retreat supports you in understanding how shifts in season, lifestyle, and emotional patterns influence your Agni, and how to gently adapt your daily routines to remain grounded, nourished, and resilient.
We are delighted to welcome you to a special oasis in the heart of Berlin, where you will experience two days of deep reconnection with yourself. This retreat is both restorative and immersive — a learning-by-doing experience that empowers you with practical tools, rituals, and wisdom you can integrate into your everyday life, especially during times of transition.
The program is designed to guide you toward a conscious and meaningful daily routine that protects and nourishes Agni. You will explore Ayurvedic practices such as morning and evening rituals, mindful nourishment, total body self-massage (Abhyanga), breathing techniques, and supportive lifestyle habits that promote balance, longevity, and vitality. Through your dosha assessment, you will gain a clear understanding of your unique constitution and how your body and mind respond to seasonal change. This awareness becomes a powerful key to recognizing imbalance and responding with care and clarity.
Whether you are seeking support for digestive discomfort, bloating, low energy, brain fog, irregular cycles, or hormonal fluctuations, Ayurveda addresses these challenges at their root. By strengthening Agni, we support healthy digestion, reduce inflammation, enhance nutrient absorption, and promote hormonal balance through personalized nutrition, herbs, daily routines, and conscious practices.
By honoring your Divine Fire, you cultivate resilience, longevity, and the ability to live fully present and aligned with your life path — through every season of life.

PAST RETREATS
Impara gli antichi saperi ayurvedici per il benessere psicofisico, in un’ oasi immersa nella natura alle pendici delle Dolomiti.
25 o 26 Novembre 2023
L’Ayurveda è una disciplina medica che risale a più di 5000 anni fa, diffusa principalmente in India e in Asia. Dagli antichi Sutra, testi sacri, provengono saperi tramandati fino ad oggi per il mantenimento della perfetta salute, cura di diverse malattie, creazione di una routine personale mediante l’alimentazione, l’esercizio fisico, il massaggio, la depurazione profonda del sistema mente-corpo-spirito e l’utilizzo di erbe e oli naturali.
Ogni persona è concepita dall’Ayurveda come un piccolo universo, formata dai 5 elementi Akasha (spazio), Vaju (Aria), Agni (fuoco), Ap (acqua) e Prthvi (terra) che determinano la quantità di differenti umori corporei definiti come Dosha: Vata, Pitta, Kapha. Ogni persona ha un Dosha singolo o misto corrispondente al momento della nascita e uno attuale, e di conseguenza anche specifiche particolarità che li contraddistinguono.
In questa giornata dedicata al benessere, avrai la possibilità di apprendere semplici pratiche e saperi per poterli introdurre nella tua quotidianità. I benefici sono: aumentare l’ energia corporea; fortificare il corpo liberandolo dalle tossine; migliorare le funzioni mentali, emotive ed emozionali; contrastare eventuali disturbi che possono presentarsi in vari momenti dell’anno e soprattutto nei cambi di stagione.
Prendersi CURA 
Giugno / Novembre 2023
On-line a cadenza mensile, durata 90 minuti circa, gratuito.
Il gruppo di pratica è durato circa 6 mesi e si è concluso lo scorso 8 Dicembre 2023, in questo periodo abbiamo praticato assieme tecniche di rilassamento, respirazione, osservazione di cristalli e metodi per prenderci cura di noi stess* e per avere cura dei nostri molteplici corpi. Una delle diverse sessioni è stata anche guidata da una nostra partecipante, esperta di respiro consapevole.
Diffondere informazioni utili che ognuno può portare con sè nella quotidianità è stato l’obbiettivo di questo percorso e sicuramente ci saranno nuove occasioni per praticare assieme.
Un sentito grazie a chi, con dedizione, ha dedicato il suo tempo a noi e al suo benessere.
