"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." |
