You live in the rhythm of the city — always moving, planning, achieving, running toward what’s next. Even planning a holiday can feel like another thing to organise. Deep down, you long for balance, for genuine connection with yourself, and for a gentle detox from the noise and stress of everyday life.
You know how to show up for others. But when it comes to slowing down, feeling your own emotions, and letting someone else hold space for you — it’s more challenging.
This weekend is here for that: a chance to rest, breathe, share laughter, and rediscover the quiet joy of simply being — together.
This is for you if:
• You crave real rest — not escape, but restoration
• You want to feel, not just think or talk
• You’re holding emotions that need space to move
• You want to reconnect to your rhythm and breath

The setting
This isn’t a retreat center. It’s a home — simple, grounded, surrounded by grass, sky, and a river.
Just being there helps something in you soften.
Your guides
Nini Eliashvili, invited from Georgia, is a somatic coach and breathwork facilitator known for her warm, trauma-informed presence.

If something in you says yes — listen to it.
You don’t have to be more ready.
You don’t need to figure anything out first.
You just need a body, a breath, and the willingness to show up.
