Detox

Mini Weekend Retreat (in Dutch) 2014

Mindful – Matters organiseert in samenwerking met Suzan van de Roemer en Chantal Soeters een weekend-mini-retreat in Friesland.

Op het programma staan verschillende en toegankelijke meditaties en laagdrempelige activiteiten om het weekend mindful te beleven. Maar ook: goed en puur eten, bij het haardvuur zitten, door het bos wandelen en goede gesprekken. Of juist stilte als je daar even aan toe bent.Read More
