Asha Meditation : You will learn the powerful method of Asha Meditation, which was
developed by Yoginâm for this modern age man and which you can
easily integrate into your daily life.
​​
Qi-Gong/EBR: The morning program includes the profound method of EBR
(Energetic Body Re-allignment).We sit behind laptops and on
couches and drive cars for long periods of time, which, for many
men, has resulted in many physical complaints.
The EBR program contains exercises from Qi Gong, Hatha yoga,
martial arts, and a fysiotherapeutic background, that cover a wide
area where these problems find their source. Men with back, leg,
shoulder and neck problems, experienced a gradual decrease, or
even disappearance, of many of those problems, by using this
program on a daily basis.

WHAT MAKES THIS RETREAT DIFFERENT ?
​
We are located in The Garden of Nâm where everything is designed in the vision of Yoginâm, the inspirator of LivingNâm (a way of living that is steered towards optimal living). Many people from different cultures and backgrounds from around the world have been visiting him to share in his healing resonance, to benefit their lives. As The Garden is next to Yoginâm's hermitage there is the rare opportunity for the participants to share in the healing resonance of Yoginâm's HarpMood sessions. For those who feel the need, it is also possible to book a personal HarpMood or healing.
