In an increasingly stressful and connected world, it is essential to take time for yourself and refocus on the essentials. Meditation mindfulness allows you to take a well-being break to regain the balance between our body and our mind. In this article, we offer you several destinations to go on a meditation trip and discover different methods to achieve it.
Immersion in nature with Chemins Sauvages
Along the Sarine, Irène and Stéphane organize immersions in nature during a wild life experience while roaming for three days and two nights. This unique experience allows you to immerse yourself in nature, to recharge your batteries and to acquire knowledge for more autonomy and less superfluity. The days are punctuated by a bit of walking and a lot of picking wild plants. The group of a maximum of ten people leaves with a food base and discovers edible plants and how to cook them.
The teachings of conscious breathing
In his new book "28 breaths to change your life", Daniel Lumera, biologist and meditation expert, offers a method based on conscious breathing to feel good about yourself. The technique consists of performing 28 breathing cycles, an ideal number to reach a state of absolute calm. This practice, studied by neuroscience and based on ancient techniques, creates a rhythmic sequence capable of regenerating the mind and body and regulating the chemistry of the brain to move from the mode of doing to that of inner awareness.
The benefits of Ayurveda
Ayurveda is the traditional medicine of ancient India. For 5000 years, this practice has been the key for many people in search of health and deep well-being. Recognized as a “method of care” by the WHO, Ayurvedic medicine focuses more on the patient than on the disease. The body and the soul are closely linked and, through three fundamental energies which are the doshas, Ayurveda makes it possible to find balance. Ayurvedic medicine identifies the deep nature of human beings to assess their own needs and respond to them accurately.
