I needed a retreat because of a divorce. I needed joy and dancing therapy! After the retreat; I felt more peaceful and self-live! Peter's food is delicious, and Pingel is very professional, her dancing and meditation therapy brings you joy and connection with your body and soul. She is also the most lovely person! I highly recommend this retreat
I need to connect with my body, listen to the signs, name the associated emotions to stop the “automatisms,” and learn about myself.
The gentle approach to teaching about emotions and the choices to manifest them resonated with me.
Plus, being in the middle of nature helped me connect with creative energy and inner wisdom and offered a welcoming, calm environment.
I got a deeper understanding of myself and various ways to manifest emotions.
One of the biggest wins is learning about the options we can choose from (e.g., fear versus excitement, anger vs. boundaries).
Pingel and Peter are extraordinary people, teaching and talking exactly what they are leaving, so much of the learning makes sense since it’s practical and logical.
Their knowledge and understanding of nature and human experiences made the retreat even more special.
I was very very depressed following some difficult situations, losing my job and a break up from a very toxic relationship.
This retreat offered something different from the usual yoga offering.
This experience was probably the single best investment I have ever made.
I arrived in a very dangerous emotional state, and Pingel, Peter, and all their furry friends transformed me and got me out of a very dark place. I have not looked back nor slipped back since I returned in April.
I am not a massively spiritual person, but I am very open-minded and willing to try anything and learn from them both. And I am so glad I did!
As I transitioned through my 60th birthday into the third age of my life, I wanted to honor this rite of passage and spend time deepening into my whole self and what is arising in and through me at this time.
I was drawn to Pingel and her solo retreat because of the lovely, welcoming, professional, and understanding pre-call I had with her and the combined qualities of embodied dance, expressive art, and connection with heart and soul that she could so clearly offer.
I have returned feeling resourced and cared for, with a richer awareness and integration of some deep archetypal energies within me.
Pingel was a wonderful guide and companion, encouraging, compassionate, wise, and fun.
Peter's food was delicious and nutritious; together, they gave me the perfect mix of warm, interesting hosting, holding, accompaniment, and solitude.
They have created a very, very special place in Jardin de Luz, and I am working out when I can return.
This retreat has taught me to feel and connect with my body, down to earth so I can feel the connection with others again and bring more joy in my life.
Thank you so much, Pingel and Peter!
