During this retreat, we will explore how to align with the ‘story of interbeing’; feeling our kinship with all life by learning to build and co-create spaces for renewal, reciprocity, healing, and reverence - specifically with the more than human world. For this we have the opportunity to engage with a large horse-herd, born and bred at this event’s unique location: Saint Jean and the surrounding Celtic Forest of Broceliande in Brittany, France.

REWILDING THE SACRED HEART - REVIEWS

“Our encounters with the horses were cleverly structured. For me the highlight of the retreat was the individual exercise in the encounter with me and one horse. This “dance” between the horse Xistosa and me was a deep spiritual experience. I am only slowly beginning to understand its significance. The decision to go my own way in the way I relate to the horse was triggered and supported by everything that took place around this encounter. This unique experience has brought deep healing and is something I can draw on again and again.”

“A wonderful web emerged, in which each could become who they were. Without the unnecessary interference of questions and explanations. What was there was allowed to be there, took firm shape or flew with the wind. It was like being allowed to sit for a moment at the source of life, like being allowed to flow with your little stream with the great stream that carries us all.”

“I was very touched and moved by the metamorphosis of my son.

And I enjoyed every minute of it
.

I am very grateful that this has happened to him.

That he, for once, has felt what it means to be open and connected.

He felt trust and he felt safety in himself.

I must say, I was gratefully flabbergasted.

He said: I am glad I said yes.”

“I have been home for over two weeks now and still feel the retreat with the horses in my body. The week has brought me so much closer to nature, I can experience for myself that there is no difference and feel a huge admiration for everything.

I found the guidance from Annick and Sicelo fantastic, each time we were told exactly what we were going to do, where and at what time. That gave my system a lot of peace of mind. Also the time there was to be completely on your own was wonderful. Sicelo is a man of the heart, very disarming that he guided us so freely and so present.

In short, Annick and Sicelo's guidance, Christine's immense hospitality and her dedication with the horses, SeeU the dog and the sublime meals made this retreat an unforgettable experiential journey. I will definitely be there again next year!”
