Breaze Transformative Breathwork

Björn Stubner

Breaze Transformative Breathwork is an immersive conscious breathing experience using headphones and eye masks, designed to allow participants to enter altered states of consciousness and access deep emotional healing. The foundation is Conscious Connected Breathing, a continuous flow of breath that activates the body, expands awareness, and opens a gateway to clarity, release, and transformation. As the journey unfolds, participants expand their energy and compassion from themselves outward to the space, the city, the country, and the planet, remembering their belonging to the whole. Guided by Björn Stubner, with carefully curated music, visualizations, and a safe container, the experience invites participants to move beyond layers of identity — beyond race, gender, nationality, or belief — and reconnect with who they are as interconnected human beings. Toward the end, a brief journaling moment (materials provided) supports integration and connection with inner wisdom. The session concludes with a sharing circle, creating a space of openness and collective awareness to ground the experience.

Ayahuasca retreat in the Amazon jungle with the Yawanawa tribe

Carla & Fred | Taozen

This November, we invite you to step beyond the familiar and enter the heart of the Brazilian Amazon, where the Yawanawá Tribe will open their sacred world and home to us. For 10 days, we’ll live as the Yawanawá do. By night, we’ll sit in ceremony together, guided by traditional Yawanawá songs and prayers that have echoed through the jungle for millennia. By day, you will be treated to a variety of revered, one-of-a-kind traditional experiences that very few human beings on this planet have ever had the privilege to know or partake in. To call this simply a ‘retreat’ would be an enormous understatement. In actual fact, it is better considered as an initiation. A rite of passage. A full-body immersion - one that will mark you, stretch you, test you, help you grow and return you home reborn. Instead of a retreat away, it is a stepping in. It is also a profound homecoming. One that will lead you back to the Earth, back to spirit and back to the parts of yourself you forgot you lost. Feel that thrum in your chest right now? That’s your sign. Your place by the fire? It’s already there. Just waiting for you to jump into the jungle. Read on and follow your heart.

BOOK 'The Science of the Last Threshold'

Alex Gómez-Marín

📘 IS DEATH THE END OF OUR EXISTENCE? "People have a yearning and need for an answer that gives meaning to their lives. Dr. Álex Gómez-Marín's book helps to open consciousness." (Dr. Manuel Sans Segarra). This book is a deep reflection on the mysteries of the mind and the potential of science and spirituality to reveal new truths about our existence and our consciousness. Álex Gómez-Marín, neuroscientist and researcher at the Institute of Neurosciences of Alicante (CSIC-UMH), invites you on a fascinating journey through the margins of consciousness. After a near-death experience in 2021, this theoretical physicist was marked by the need to investigate from science the boundaries between the measurable and the unexplainable. Throughout the book, he explores themes such as consciousness beyond death, out-of-body experiences, synchronicities... Because the mind is much more than what the brain produces. It not only challenges the current paradigm of neuroscience but also delves into areas that until recently were considered pseudoscience. 📘https://www.planetadelibros.com/libro-la-ciencia-del-ultimo-umbral/426278

Open Arms. A mission against the tide

OPEN ARMS ONG

📕 10 years defending life at sea. This book should not exist. The stories it gathers should never have happened. Since 2015, we have rescued thousands of people in the Mediterranean. People who should never have been forced to board precarious vessels, to risk their lives at sea because, in the 21st century, they had no other option. This book tells our story and that of a Europe that raises higher and higher walls against a phenomenon as old as humanity: migration. Migrating is natural. Forcing people to do it under inhuman conditions is not. Open Arms was born with a fundamental objective: to save lives. Ten years later, that mission remains intact. What has changed is the world around us: the narrative about rescues, the perspective towards those seeking a better life, the transformation of solidarity into suspicion and aid into a problem. Today, helping can be uncomfortable. Even persecuted. Over time, our work has become trapped in a contradictory narrative: heroes for some, villains for others. Between the epic and the criminalization, this book proposes to go beyond the imposed narrative and reflect on who the real heroes and villains are in the current migratory context. It brings together the work of more than 40 internationally renowned photographers, whose images document a decade of counter-current missions. Testimonies from journalists, crew members, and volunteers.

Retreat for women in nature

Elisenda Pascual Martí

A space for reconnection and internal creation led by Elisenda Pascual Martí. Alma mater, from the Latin 'nurturing mother': The seed that we all carry within and shows us the capacity we have to nurture ourselves with the gifts and potentials we hold. The strength of the tribe, of the care space, of the loving and secure gaze; cultivation of resources for a good life. This is an exclusive retreat for women looking to create life paths more aligned with their life purpose. Alma Mater is the opportunity to connect with a version of yourself that is much more coherent with what brings security, well-being, and health to your life.

Aquareset (watsu)

Ares Cuesta

In the water, the body remembers how to breathe and move effortlessly. AquaReset® is an aquatic wellness method that combines movement, breathing, and body science to release fascial tension, decompress the spine, and restore the calm of the nervous system. The water supports and envelops; the body responds by letting go of deep resistances. Through conscious touch, gentle traction, and rhythmic swaying, the tissues reorganize, the organs regain their natural space, and vital energy flows freely. Each session is a dialogue between body and water: a process of physical, emotional, and energetic resetting that returns the organism to its most authentic rhythm. AquaReset® combines technique and sensitivity to support the body in its own process of release and restoration. Individual sessions and training.
