  • Family Systems Constellations And The Rhythms Of Nature

    Teacher: Christel and Erik Andersen
    Cost: 3 days' accommodation + R350 surcharge
    Dates:

    erik christel andersonDuring this retreat we will experience the larger systems that shape and support human life. Through Family and Systems Constellations, we will explore how family patterns, loyalties, and inherited dynamics continue to influence our relationships, choices, and inner life. This allows us to see patterns clearly, and to emerge with a deeper sense of connection to ourselves and our ancestors.

    Alongside this, we will draw on nature-based systems and rhythms, the African medicine wheel, cycles, symbol, art, and music. The intelligence of the natural world, reminds us that healing and orientation arise through rhythm, relationship, and attentive presence. Together, these two streams meet in a larger supportive holding field.

    Christel Andersen is an experienced Souljourney group facilitator, nature - and tourist guide, numerologist and GIM-music therapist. She has facilitated a number of retreats at the BRC over the past 3 years and in a variety of settings around South Africa over the past 23 years. She loves to share her knowledge and insights using the tools which she has learnt over the years: the language of symbol, numerology, nature and creativity. Her retreats are a fun, varied and informative experience which provide retreatants with practical tools to navigate the journey of life. Her most poignant experiences of flow, Divinity and unity have been in these shared creative experiences.

    Erik Andersen is a facilitator and teacher working with Family and Systems Constellations and contemplative practices. His work helps people gain insight into family patterns, inherited dynamics, and the relational systems that shape their lives. He works in an embodied and experiential way, supporting clarity, presence, and integration rather than analysis or fixing. He lives in KwaZulu-Natal with his wife Christel and son Nikolas. He uses a wheelchair due to muscular dystrophy, an experience that informs his sensitivity to fields, limitation, and connection, both in life and in his work. Erik is registered with SCASA.

  • Iyengar Yoga : Moving into stillness

    Teacher: Riva Herschovitz
    Cost: 2 days accommodation + R400 surcharge
    Dates:

    In our fast paced lives, we need the time to find quiet and calm. With this quiet we find the resilience to face the world and all that comes our way. Through Asana (posture), pranayama (breath control) and meditation practice as well as periods of silence, we give ourselves time to uncoil and find space mentally and physically. This space gives breath to our emotional well-being. This retreat is suitable for yoga students who would like to experience Iyengar yoga and those who would like to deepen their understanding and practice of Iyengar yoga.
