"The
colors, the music and the dancing rekindled deep
memories
as I was
transported to an ancient temple of the goddess.
The level
of sharing and bonding was phenomenal. The creation
and
expression of beauty amongst us was endlessly
inspiring."
HEALING RETREATS
Retreats
offer the opportunity to experience the power and
potency of immersion. Farida has guided many
student groups to the Institute of Naturopathy
& Yogic Sciences in Bangalore, India and the
Ann Wigmore Institute in Puerto Rico. Other
retreats featured frankincense sea water cleanses
in Hawaii and elemental retreats in Australia,
Iceland and Colorado.
When purification and regeneration are woven into a
program created by Farida Sharan, participants
experience depth transformation. Purifying and
nourishing diets of organic vegetarian living food
enhance treatments utilizing therapeutic medicinal
oils, colon cleansing, bodywork and naturopathic
baths, packs and poultices. The diet and natural
therapeutics provide a flexible foundation for the
mystic yoga and mystic evening circles that explore
the elements of life and the mysteries of personal
evolution.
COMMENTS FROM PARTICIPANTS
“It has
been a wonderful time of healing and bringing my
energies back into my center. My body is happy and
my soul is in ecstasy.”
"The overwhelming experience of the amazing
synchronicity between seemingly random events,
treatments, weather, and healing exactly in tune to
the mystic yoga elemental program with Farida as it
unfolded over the two weeks astounded me. This
evolution in my life experience has opened to a
wide horizon. The group dynamic created a body of
love and shared being. Thank you Farida for making
all these revelations possible, cosmic sister,
mother, midwife of self birth."
"I am learning through sensing and feeling my body
as I leave the mental effort behind. There is
nothing to grasp, only the potent experience of the
present."
"I am so grateful for all the blessings I have
received! I am filled with wonder and joy at the
seeds that have been planted and the love that has
been awakened. There is great pleasure in knowing
what commitment and preparation can bring forth and
I am excited to continue. Thank you for sharing
your heart, your laughter, your love, wisdom and
beauty!"
"The ebb and flow of the movements have made my
days interesting and wonderful. The most powerful
movements for me were slow micro-movements to very
fast music. I thought I was moving at the slowest
pace possible then I tried to go slower and I
could. I did this a few times, each time slower and
each time amazed and aware that I had never ever
felt that slowness in me before. I touched a place
I didn't know existed. So, so wonderful! I will
always remember that beautiful place and bring it
more to the surface of my life. Thank you oh, so
much!"
"The depth of wisdom, insight and understanding of
the elements. the patterns and energies of life and
the universe as they relate to us directly to our
bodies, minds, hearts and souls as taught and
embodied by Farida that we experienced in our
morning and evening "gatherings" was truly
invaluable. This time together I will treasure
forever, with humble gratitude, with divine love
from my heart."
"Thank you
Farida, I have especially loved the yoga and dance
and although I consider myself to be quite free in
my music movement I was able to experience great
expansions of awareness in the sleepy places in my
body. I could feel the patterns of spirals,
infinity figure eights and waves in all parts of my
body as well as a snake-like pattern of flexibility
in my spine. I am grateful knowing that what I have
gained in body awareness I will not only retain but
expand due to practice and deep body listening and
flow learned in this retreat."
"Each day gets better and better because as I move
physically, I move energetically. My feelings have
become my friends again and my creative juices are
just flowing and flowing. What a beautiful gift you
have given me and a wonderful tool to take home to
my children. Thank you, love and blessings."
"You work has opened me in a way I never thought
possible. The environment of living food and
healing therapies and the ocean is enhanced by your
work. Rainbow movements opened access to myself
with ease. I am empowered to move comfortably and
confidently into my life."
"My experience with Farida has been a profoundly
auspicious occasion to reconcile the dreams of my
youth and soul with my life as it is now. Farida's
approach of weaving the teachings of the living
foods lifestyle with mystic yoga, and movement and
the elemental teachings created a supportive
setting for me to awaken living truth in its full
spectrum of color. I feel very grateful and
confident I now have the tools for rebuilding my
health and enlivening my life for the next step in
the journey."
"I learned to play, to deepen, to know
myself."
