Jason Milne

August 31, 2024

11:00 - 13:00

Jason Milne is a registered E-RYT 500 Yoga teacher with the Yoga Alliance who has been practicing Yoga for more than twenty-three years and teaching professionally around the world for the past eighteen years. He has completed a four-year course of advanced Yoga study and six additional YTT’s covering a wide range of Yoga styles, including: Hatha, Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Chakra, Yin, traditional Kundalini, Power, Tantra Yoga, alignment-focused Yoga and Yoga Therapy. Jason has taught in over 25 Yoga teacher training courses and worked with thousands of students from all over the world. He has devoted his life to the study, practice and teaching of Yoga and his thousands of hours of practice have given him a deep understanding of the many techniques and benefits of this ancient science. Jason utilizes his extensive experiential knowledge to create classes, for absolute beginners to advanced practitioners, that facilitate physical, emotional, mental and spiritual healing through an emphasis on working with the subtle energies of the body and nature to balance all aspects of each practitioner. He is currently teaching workshops, immersions, retreats and training courses internationally to share Yoga with anyone who has an interest in healing, evolving and awakening their highest potential.

This transformative, complete yoga session guides you to balance your body, energy, emotions and mind, while flowing into a calm, restorative state of being. We begin with a gentle warm-up to prepare for a strong, dynamic sequence, which then flows into a slow, meditative practice that takes you deeper into the awareness of your internal experience. Next, we begin a journey through the chakras with a variety of breathing techniques with tremendous physical benefits, that also purify and harmonize your subtle energy centers. Finally, we reach the culmination of our practice with a guided meditation that invites you to experience the blissful stillness deep within your heart center.

The lessons take place in English.

Bianca began her personal yoga journey in 2003. During a significant visit to India in 2012, she immersed herself in intensive yoga, meditation and yoga philosophy, which triggered a deep connection to this ancient practice. Yoga for her was more than just physical exercise; it became a holistic lifestyle that nourished body, mind and soul. Drawing from various teachers and experiences, she has embraced continuous personal development both as a student and a teacher.

Liliana Morell

August 31. 202405, 2023

from 18:30 

Liliana R. Morell has been accompanying people on the path to self-discovery for many years. With her very own kind of sound healing/sound meditation, she takes people on a deep journey to themselves. She now lives in Weggis, before that she lived for many years in Hawai'i, where the culture, spirituality and nature around Lake Lucerne are her source of strength and influence her being. Liliana's inspiration is to pass on her rich knowledge and many years of experience, to accompany people, to touch hearts, to make inner silence and one's own being tangible through sound, to inspire, to conjure up a smile. Liliana offers private sessions, small groups and special retreats with sound healing and transformation coaching in Weggis, directly on the lake (lilianamorell.com). She works as a freelance visual artist (artliliana.com).

SOUND JOURNEY - MEDITATION Sound healing uses sound frequencies to achieve a deep state of relaxation, reduce stress, dissolve blockages in the body, activate self-healing powers and create inner harmony. Sounds have the ability to penetrate deeper layers of the body and psyche, bypassing our rational consciousness, so to speak. Immerse yourself in another world. Through the sounds of various natural and overtone instruments from all over the world, Liliana takes you on a healing journey, your energy systems come into balance, your entire body and your soul begin to vibrate. Your inner sounds are addressed by external instruments, you connect with your own soul sound. Doors can open that allow you to access inner resources and experience soul touch. Deep relaxation, well-being and healing can occur on many levels. Body, mind and soul are nourished by the sounds of various singing bowls, gongs, 1m mother drum, ocean drum, handpan, koshi, cymbals, chimes, rain pipe, pu'u.... You may experience the high frequency of a special ‘Alchemy Crystal Singing Bowl’, The human voice, the ‘soul song’ is also used as a profound tool to heal and access your heart. LET GO AND RELAX - A JOURNEY TO YOURSELF, INTO YOUR HEART, THE CONNECTION TO YOUR SOUL

The lessons take place in German.
