SUMMARY:The Emotional Movement - Workshop Medellín
DESCRIPTION:Espanol AquiConscious Dance & Somatic Exploration Workshop \nThe Emotional Movement What if\, instead of pushing forward\, you allowed yourself space to listen?Friday\, March 6th\, 2026 \n6.30 pm-8 pm \nMedellín\, Laureles \nSometimes we move through life on autopilot. We feel tired\, irritable\, or empty… but we don’t always know why. \nOften\, emotions become stored in the body when they don’t have space to be felt\, expressed\, or integrated. Over time\, this can show up as tension\, disconnection\, anxiety\, or a sense of being “far from yourself.” \nThis workshop is an invitation to return to the body\, reconnect with your emotional world\, and create a safe space to explore what is alive within you\, with gentleness\, rhythm\, and guidance. \nI choose to reconnect with my emotional inner world.What you will experience \nThrough conscious movement\, breath\, moving meditation\, and guided somatic practices\, we will explore different emotions through the body. \nThe journey unfolds progressively and respectfully\, alternating between individual and collective moments\, structure and freedom\, containment and expression. \nMovement is guided in intention\, yet always free in form — honoring your own rhythm and boundaries. \nIn this workshop\, you will: \n\nLearn to listen to what your body expresses beyond words.\nMake space for both comfortable and more challenging emotions.\nRelease accumulated emotional tension and allow energy to flow again.\nReconnect with your vitality\, sensitivity\, and natural creativity.\nDiscover how to transform emotions into movement\, presence\, and inner clarity.\n\nAs emotions find movement\, something shifts: tension softens\, energy circulates\, and greater clarity and connection emerge. \nBecause when we give ourselves permission to feel — through the body — something begins to move. And blocked energy finds its way out. \nThis workshop is for you if… \n\n\nYou sometimes feel disconnected from your emotions or your body. \n\nYou struggle to express what you feel with words and are seeking other ways of inner listening.\nYou carry emotional tension or stress and need space to release and renew.\nYou wish to explore your emotions in a respectful\, embodied\, and conscious way.\n\nAnd also if… \n\nYou are in a moment of change\, transition\, or personal inquiry.\nYou long to reconnect with your vitality\, sensitivity\, and natural capacity to feel.\nYou feel drawn to free movement\, conscious dance\, or somatic processes.\nYou are looking for a safe space to explore yourself\, without judgment or pressure.\n\nNo previous dance experience is needed. \nJust a willingness to feel\, move\, and listen. \nI choose to reconnect with my emotional inner world.Información práctica \n📍 Location: SOMA Medellín – Laureles (Holistic Movement Lab)📅 Date: Friday\, March 6\, 2026⏰ Time: 6:30 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. (please allow a little flexibility at the end)💸 Suggested contribution: 55\,000 COP per person🗣️ Language: Spanish & English \nHi\, I’m Lara. \nI’m a somatic therapist and dance movement facilitator\, and I host monthly workshops in Medellín\, each one exploring a different theme around embodiment\, emotions\, and conscious movement. \nWith over 25 years of experience in movement\, I guide people back to their bodies through trauma-informed somatic practices\, dance therapy\, rhythm\, and embodied awareness. \nI’m the founder of Fuente Alegre\, a holistic center in the mountains of Colombia\, where I facilitate retreats rooted in nervous system regulation\, ancestral wisdom\, and embodied presence. \nMy work invites you to reconnect with your emotional truth\, listen to your inner rhythms\, and gently transform unconscious patterns through movement. \nMy style is honest\, creative\, and deeply grounded — holding space with warmth\, clarity\, and respect for each person’s unique journey. \n\nI got to experience a beautiful dance therapy session with Lara. I could really feel her passion and knowledge in the session\, but also her sensitivity and care. She was really very receptive of my process\, what I needed\, and through that had a very  powerful transforming session. \nSacha\, NL\nLa experiencia en las clases de Lara ha sido transformadora. Llegué buscando mover el cuerpo y terminé conectando profundamente conmigo misma. La suavidad y contención de su guía me permitió explorar mis emociones desde un lugar seguro y auténtico. Recomiendo esta práctica a cualquiera que quiera reconectar con su cuerpo y su esencia. \nMaría Fernanda\, Colombia\nNunca había sentido tanta libertad en el movimiento. Las sesiones de danza terapia con Lara me ayudaron a soltar cargas emocionales que ni siquiera sabía que cargaba. Es un espacio seguro\, lleno de respeto\, donde cada quien puede ser y sentir sin juicios. \nJulien\, Francia\nParticipar en las clases de danza consciente de Lara fue un antes y un después en mi proceso personal. Su acompañamiento me permitió darme cuenta de cómo me relaciono con mi cuerpo y con los demás. Me sentí en confianza para explorar nuevas formas de expresión que ahora también aplico en mi día a día. \nAna Sofía\, MéxicoRegister

SUMMARY:El movimiento Emocional - Taller Medellin
DESCRIPTION:English here!Taller de danza consciente \nEl movimiento emocional ¿Y si\, en lugar de seguir empujando\, te regalaras un espacio para escuchar?Viernes 6 de marzo de 2026 \n6.30 pm-8 pm \nMedellín\, Laureles \nA veces seguimos adelante en piloto automático. Sentimos cansancio\, irritabilidad o vacío… pero no siempre sabemos por qué. \nLo que pasa es que las emociones se quedan atrapadas en el cuerpo cuando no encuentran espacio para ser sentidas\, expresadas o integradas. Y con el tiempo\, esto puede traducirse en cansancio\, tensión\, desconexión\, ansiedad o una sensación de estar “lejos de uno mismo”. \nEste taller es una invitación a volver al cuerpo\, reconectar con tu mundo emocional y crear un espacio seguro para explorar lo que está vivo en ti\, con suavidad\, ritmo y acompañamiento. \n¡Yo elijo reconectar con mi mundo emocional!Lo que vivirás: \nA través del movimiento consciente\, la respiración\, la meditación en movimiento y dinámicas guiadas\, exploraremos distintas emociones desde el cuerpo. \nEl viaje se construye de forma progresiva y respetuosa\, alternando momentos individuales y colectivos\, estructura y libertad\, contención y expresión. El movimiento sara guiado en la intención\, pero siempre libre en la forma\, respetando tu ritmo y tus límites. \nEn este taller vas a: \n\nAprender a escuchar lo que tu cuerpo expresa más allá de las palabras.\nDar espacio tanto a las emociones cómodas como a las más desafiantes.\nLiberar tensiones emocionales acumuladas y permitir que la energía vuelva a circular.\nReconectar con tu vitalidad\, tu sensibilidad y tu creatividad natural.\nDescubrir cómo transformar emociones en movimiento\, presencia y claridad interna.\n\nA medida que las emociones encuentran movimiento\, algo se transforma: la tensión se suaviza\, la energía circula y aparece más claridad y conexión contigo. \nPorque cuando nos damos permiso de sentir —a través del cuerpo— algo empieza a moverse y la energía bloqueada encuentra salida. \nEste taller es para ti si… \n\nSientes que a veces te desconectas de tus emociones o de tu cuerpo.\nTe cuesta expresar lo que sientes con palabras y buscas otras formas de escucha interna.\nAcumulas tensión emocional o estrés y necesitas un espacio para liberar y renovar.\nQuieres explorar tus emociones de manera respetuosa\, corporal y consciente.\n\ny también si… \n\nEstás en un momento de cambio\, transición o búsqueda personal.\nDeseas reconectar con tu vitalidad\, tu sensibilidad y tu capacidad natural de sentir.\nTe atrae el movimiento libre\, la danza consciente o los procesos somáticos.\nBuscas un espacio seguro para explorarte\, sin juicio y sin exigencia.\n\nNo necesitas experiencia previa en danza. Solo ganas de sentir\, moverte y escucharte. \n¡Yo elijo conectar con mi mundo emocional!Información práctica \n📍 Lugar: SOMA Medellín – Laureles (Laboratorio de Movimiento Holístico)\n📅 Fecha: Viernes 6 de marzo 2026\n⏰ Hora: 6:30 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. (planifica un poco de flexibilidad al final)\n💸 Contribución sugerida: 55.000 COP por persona\n🗣️ Idioma: Español & Inglés \nLara Grofils es terapeuta somática y danza terapeuta con más de 25 años de experiencia en movimiento.

SUMMARY:Sacred Nature\, Sacred Self
DESCRIPTION:Sacred Nature\, Sacred SelfReconnect with Your Soul’s CallingFebruary 5 – February 9\, 2026 \nColombia \nToggle NavigationHomeOur JourneyVenueCuisineBenefitsTestimonialsColombiaInclusionsLeadersRegisterContactIf you’re craving space to breathe\, reset\, and remember who you are beyond the noise\, and you’re ready to listen deeply to what arises inside\, then join us for this five-day soulful retreat in nature\, where movement\, ritual\, and deep presence will gently guide you back to your essence! \nAs you step into the lush green heart of the Colombian mountains\, the air feels pure on your skin\, alive with birdsong and the murmur of flowing rivers. You notice how your shoulders begin to drop without effort\, how your breath lengthens. It is as if the land itself has been holding its arms open for you. \nYou are welcomed not just with words\, but with presence… honest\, grounded\, warm. You feel it in the way eyes meet yours\, in the unhurried rhythm of each moment. Everything here invites you to slow down\, to arrive\, to be deeply present. \nYou’re held in a retreat space crafted from natural materials and sacred intention by the very people who will walk beside you in the days to come. Woven textures and clean wood scents invite softness. You slip barefoot; a whisper of fine dust grounding your soles. You listen to the land. And slowly\, gently\, the tempo of your heart evens out and you begin to remember your own rhythm. \nAs the days unfold\, time loses its grip and something within you begins to shift. What once felt distant inside you begins to stir and rise — not because you pushed harder\, but because\, for once\, you stopped running. You feel a sense of belonging\, as if you’ve returned to a kind of family — held\, supported\, seen. \nYou immerse yourself in practices that bring you back to your body and your truth\, as a way to root deeper into what matters. \nThis isn’t just a getaway. It’s a homecoming. A reconnection with the clarity and aliveness that’s always been inside you. You feel not only rested\, but changed — more yourself than you’ve felt in years. \nWelcome!  \nThe sacred nature has called you to transformational Colombia! \n\nBy the end of this retreat… \nYou will feel rooted\, spacious\, and alive\, deeply connected to yourself\, to nature\, and to the quiet wisdom within you. \nThrough gentle embodied practices\, grounding rituals\, and the healing presence of wild landscapes\, you’ve given your nervous system the reset it’s been craving. Instead of pouring from an empty cup\, you feel replenished\, steady\, and clear. \nIn the safety of community\, with space to move\, breathe\, and simply be\, you’ve remembered the freedom that comes from honoring your own rhythm without guilt. You walk barefoot on the earth\, you dance without needing to perform\, you express without needing to explain. \nGuided by creative movement\, ancestral wisdom circles\, meditative hikes\, and intuitive practices\, you’ve let go of the pressure to keep up\, and begun to live from presence instead. \n\nImmersed in the element of water—whether through wild rivers\, refreshing natural pools\, or cleansing rituals—you’ve released what no longer serves you and reawakened your vitality. \nAnd since you know now that true connection begins with you\, you’ve learned to honor your needs while opening to others with authenticity. You feel seen\, held\, and understood—not only by the group\, but by yourself. \nYes! It’s time to return to a life guided by intuition\, creativity\, and intention. \nThis journey will ripple far beyond the retreat\, transforming how you show up in your work\, your relationships\, and your daily life—reminding you of what truly matters. \nCan you feel the peace that comes from living at your own pace\, and the grounding clarity that arises when you move forward from that place? \nYes Lara I can feel it! Sign me up!A Journey from Disconnection to Embodied Presence \nDay 1 – GroundingDay 2 – FeelingDay 3 – RememberingDay 4 – ReclaimingDay 5 – CreatingDay 1 – Grounding\nSlowing down. Arriving fully. Landing into presence. \nYou arrive at Fuente Alegre and step into another rhythm. One that speaks in birdsong\, firewood crackles\, and your own breath. You walk the forest path toward the retreat center\, leaving behind noise\, pressure\, and timelines. You begin to slow down. To feel your feet. To soften your pace. \nThis day is about landing—not just physically\, but emotionally and energetically. It invites you to step out of overgiving\, busyness\, and overwhelm\, and into a different relationship with time\, space\, and self. It’s your invitation to be held\, to feel safe\, and to begin again. \nYou are not here to perform. You are here to return—to the earth\, to the body\, to the deeper knowing that you’re allowed to rest. \nDay 2 – Feeling\nReawakening the senses. Listening inward. Making space for emotion. \nToday we enter the forest not with our minds\, but with our bodies. We walk barefoot\, breathe with the trees\, and move with what’s alive in us. The focus shifts inward. What have I not been feeling? What emotions have been buried beneath the doing? \nThis day offers deep permission. Permission to feel—grief\, longing\, beauty\, joy. To sense again. To allow your body to speak in movement and breath\, without needing to explain. \nThis is the medicine for disconnection and depletion: to feel\, fully and honestly\, without judgment. Nature holds you without agenda. And you begin to hold yourself that way too. \nDay 3 – Remembering\nReconnecting to your essence. Listening to the inner voice. Calling your truth back. \nToday is the day you remember what got buried under the shoulds and the noise. Through meditation\, ancestral practices\, journaling and movement\, you recover pieces of yourself that went quiet over time. \nYou remember that your intuition is alive. That your body carries wisdom. That you once knew how to listen—and you still do. \nThis is the antidote to feeling lost or invisible: a day of soul memory. The river reflects your wholeness. The fire invites your voice back. And something sacred inside begins to stir—recognizable\, ancient\, and yours. \nDay 4 – Reclaiming\nClarifying what matters. Choosing your power. Returning to your truth. \nNow that you remember\, what will you do with that knowing? \nThis day is about choice. Through ritual\, guided reflection\, and embodied practices\, you are invited to release what’s no longer yours—stories\, roles\, inner noise. You speak your truth in circle. You’re witnessed\, celebrated\, and met in your strength. \nThis is your turning point—the moment where clarity replaces confusion. Where boundaries become sacred acts of self-honoring. You’re not just reconnecting with your soul’s calling—you’re claiming it. \nYou’ve been waiting for permission. But it was always yours to give. \nDay 5 – Creating\nIntegration. Celebration. Becoming who you already are. \nWe close the retreat not with a goodbye\, but with a return. Today is about integrating—not just what happened here\, but what you’re choosing moving forward. \nThrough creative expression\, movement\, sharing\, and ritual\, you give form to what has shifted. You embody your rhythm. You take your place in the circle. You express yourself—not to impress\, but to honor your aliveness. \nThis is the day you realize: the sacred isn’t elsewhere. It’s here. In your breath\, in your choices\, in your path. You don’t need to become someone else. You’re simply letting yourself be more you. \nIf this resonates with your heart and spirit\, it’s time to say YES and join us for a transformational journey! \nI say YEs!🌿 Your sanctuary for this retreat \nWelcome to Fuente Alegre\, a sanctuary where nature holds you\, and simplicity becomes a path to depth. \nNestled in the emerald mountains of Cocorná\, a region known for its waterfalls\, rivers\, and unspoiled beauty just two hours from Medellín\, Fuente Alegre (meaning “The Source of Joy” in Spanish) is where our journey unfolds. To reach it\, you’ll walk 7–10 minutes along a scenic trail\, a gentle and symbolic transition from the outside world into a sacred space. \nFuente Alegre is a family-led project\, lovingly created and hand-built with natural materials by your retreat facilitators\, Lara and Diego. What began as a personal dream grew into a larger vision: to live in harmony with nature\, raise their children in connection to the Earth\, and offer a space for others to remember what truly matters. \nThe heart of the retreat is our open-air ceremonial and movement platform\, an 80m² space with panoramic views of the mountains where you’ll sit around the fire\, breathe in movement\, and connect with presence. Just a few steps away\, the river calls. You may find yourself resting on its sun-warmed stones\, feet in the water\, listening to the sound of life flowing\, a gentle reminder that you too can soften\, surrender\, and return to your natural rhythm. \nBegin the day with a coffee or a garden infusion on your terrace. Curl into a hammock in the social nook with fellow travelers\, or if you like the sound of water\, slip away to journal on a shaded bench beside the river or cool off in our stone-lined plunge pool. \nYour room is simple\, elegant\, and cozy\, built from the land itself in earth and bamboo. Woven textures\, soft lighting\, and the scent of fresh flowers invite you to inhale… and exhale. From your bed\, you might spot tiny monkeys slipping through the trees. Comfortable mattresses\, soft linens\, and fresh\, intentional touches make the space feel warm and human. \nStart your day with an invigorating cold rinse or end it with a warm flow\, choosing what your body most craves. Plant-based soaps add a gentle\, earthy scent\, keeping you close to nature. \nYour marvelous meals \nAt Fuente Alegre\, food isn’t just nourishment\, it’s part of the whole journey. Our cuisine is fresh\, plant-based\, and mostly vegetarian\, designed to support your retreat experience with vitality and balance. We prioritize light\, wholesome meals that leave you energized rather than heavy\, while remaining flexible to your needs — vegan\, gluten-free\, or other requests are always welcome. Occasionally\, we include eggs or local fish\, depending on the group and the season\, but the essence of our table is colorful\, plant-rich\, and nourishing. \nOur chef’s passion and creativity shine through in every plate. Think: \n\nA vibrant Buddha bowl with roasted vegetables\, quinoa\, fresh herbs\, and a creamy tahini dressing.\nA tropical breakfast of papaya\, pineapple\, and mango with homemade granola and yogurt.\nHearty Colombian ajiaco\, a comforting potato and corn stew adapted with fresh garden herbs.\nCrisp green salads topped with edible flowers and seeds\, drizzled in citrus dressings.\nGolden roasted plantains served with spiced lentils and coconut rice.\n\nWhenever possible\, ingredients are locally sourced: fresh vegetables and herbs from our own garden\, tropical fruits that grow just steps from your room\, and flavors that follow the rhythm of the seasons. \nEvery day you’ll also enjoy soothing herbal infusions\, hand-picked from our garden\, alongside meals that are as beautiful to look at as they are to taste. \nAt our table\, food becomes a moment of joy\, care\, and connection\, uplifting the senses while keeping you close to the Earth. \nEnjoy a free extra night after the end of the retreat \n✨1 free accomodation night on the 15th of December \n🌿 Wouldn’t it feel wonderful if… \n...for once\, you truly made space for yourself?\nWhile you’re with us\, you’ll learn to honor your own needs without guilt\, and return home feeling seen\, not just by others but by yourself. \n...you could hear your intuition clearly\, and trust it?\nWith space to slow down and feel\, you’ll hear your inner voice again\, and begin to trust its wisdom. \n...your creativity had space to unfold again?\nYou’ll gently open to new clarity about your path\, held by nature and ritual\, without forcing answers to appear. \n...your spirituality had a place to land\, in nature\, in ritual\, in community?\nIn a safe and sacred space\, you’ll explore spirituality that feels real and rooted\, in your body\, in the Earth\, in shared experience. \n...you gave from a place of fullness\, not depletion?\nGentle\, embodied practices will support your nervous system so you can restore your inner resources and give from a replenished place. \nBy the end of this retreat\, you’ll feel more rooted in yourself\, more in tune with your intuition\, and more connected to what truly nourishes you. You’ll leave with simple yet powerful practices to sustain you—and the memory of having touched something real\, deep\, and alive. \nI choose presence over pressure!What Others Say \n\nI almost didn’t come to the retreat — until the very last day before coming\, I wasn’t sure I could do it alone. But the moment I arrived\, I felt like family. Lara and Diego took me by the hand and opened a world of experiences I never imagined I’d love or even try. It was a beautiful chance to challenge myself and see what truly matters. I fell in love with the sound of the river\, the vibrant colors of the food\, and the warmth of this place surrounded by water. I’ll be back. \nCaroline B.\, US\nFrom the moment I arrived at Fuente Alegre\, I felt the peace and special energy of the place wrap around me. Diego and Lara welcomed me like family\, and Lara’s dance therapy session was truly life-changing — deeply attuned to my process and needs. This is a place of transformation\, medicine\, and truth. \nSacha\, NL\nThis retreat has been profoundly healing for me. They’ve helped me find inner peace\, release tension\, and reconnect with my emotions. The combination of a family atmosphere and pure nature creates the perfect space for harmony and well-being. \nFelipe G.\, CO\nFuente Alegre is a sanctuary where nature itself heals you. Immersing in the rivers and waterfalls\, with guidance and support\, brought me renewal and peace like never before — and this was my first retreat ever. Diego’s calm presence and deep connection to the land made the experience deeply grounding and unforgettable. And Lara’s sweetness\, attentive listening\, and gentle guidance brought resilience into me and a newfound clarity I will carry forward. \nJess\, USWhy Colombia? \n  \nColombia is a land where the soul remembers. \nIt holds a wild\, untamed beauty — rivers that sing\, mountains that breathe\, forests that feel alive. But more than that\, it holds a deep ancestral memory. In many regions\, Indigenous communities still live in connection to the land\, preserving rituals\, stories\, and ways of being that remind us what it means to live with reverence. And for them\, nature is not a backdrop. It’s a teacher. A guide. A mirror. \nYes\, Colombia has lived through a painful history — one marked by conflict and complexity. But that’s also what makes it so powerful. This is a land that knows transformation. That holds grief and joy in the same breath. That has endured\, adapted\, and come back with resilience and heart. \nAnd in that\, there’s an invitation for us — to come into our own healing. To remember that light can grow through cracks. That we\, too\, can reclaim what’s sacred. \nWe chose Cocorná\, in particular\, because it embodies this harmony. It’s a peaceful and welcoming place — safe\, rooted\, alive with natural beauty. And if it weren’t\, we wouldn’t have chosen to raise our family and build our home here. \nAncestral Wisdom \n  \nWe honor the Colombian cosmovision we’ve learned alongside elders: the land is not scenery\, it’s kin. Mountains\, rivers\, stones\, and trees are living relatives with spirit and memory. When we meet the world this way\, something in us remembers—we are nature\, not separate from it. From this remembrance\, the grip of the small\, protective “I” begins to soften. Through simple rituals\, breath\, and movement\, we practice noticing the ego’s habits—control\, hurry\, self-doubt—and gently return to essence: the clear\, quiet place inside that knows how to belong. \nThis wisdom is relational. It asks not “Who am I alone?” but “Who am I in right relationship—with myself\, my lineage\, my family\, my community\, and the more-than-human world?” In circle\, we listen and speak with intention\, inspired by the Mambeadero tradition of respectful dialogue. We make offerings of gratitude to the waters and the land\, receive stories from the territory\, and practice reciprocity. \nWhat’s Included \n\nFive transformative days and four cozy nights at Fuente Alegre\, a hand-built sanctuary tucked in the lush Colombian mountains of Cocorná — where you’ll be welcomed like family and immersed in the wisdom of nature.\nHomemade delicious\, healthy meals – 4 nourishing breakfasts\, lunches\, and dinners made fresh daily\, with tropical fruits\, garden infusions\, and some traditional Colombian flavors.

I grew up in the quiet countryside of Belgium and later chased city pace and big degrees (Business Engineering). On paper\, I was “doing well.” Inside\, I was lost. After a traumatic assault when I was young—and later postpartum depression after a difficult childbirth—my body felt like a stranger to me. \nWhat brought me back was movement\, not performance\, but medicine. Through somatic practices\, breath\, and simple\, honest motion\, I learned to listen again. I came to understand that my body isn’t separate from nature; my body is nature. When I finally honored that truth\, the edges softened and clarity returned. Dance\, my first language since I was three\, became my medicine\, alongside meditation and yoga\, and journaling became my mirror. Little by little\, I’m learning to listen more deeply: Who am I beneath what happened to me? Where do I come from\, and where do I choose to go? \nWith my partner\, Diego\, I moved to Colombia to live closer to the land. We built our home—and then our retreat center—by hand\, with earth and bamboo\, and we’re raising our children in a way that matches our values: simple\, present\, nature-rooted. We also learn regularly with indigenous elders here in Colombia\, whose guidance helps us bridge ancestral wisdom with everyday life\, especially when things feel hard. \nMy work is gentle and deep. I use somatic and expressive movement\, breath\, touchpoints of nervous system regulation\, and guided journaling to help you feel again\, safely. Most of what I share happens in relationship with nature: we attune senses\, let the body remember it is nature\, and move in ways that allow truth to surface without forcing it. I hold a clear\, trauma-aware space where you don’t have to perform or push. Just meet yourself\, honestly. \nIf you’re longing to feel at home in your body\, to hear your intuition without the noise\, and to walk forward with more softness and strength\, come. Let the land steady you. Let your body speak. And let your own words—on the page\, in movement\, in breath—show you the way back. \nThis work isn’t about fixing you. It’s about remembering you\, through your body\, with nature as a mirror.. \n Diego Colot Duque Half Colombian\, half Belgian\, I grew up in the quiet fields of Belgium\, where my first teachers were wind\, wood\, and water. At ten\, my family moved to Spain and cracked my world open to different ways of living. Years later\, on a backpacking trip in Australia\, I met a spiritual guide who introduced me to meditation and ancestral medicines. That encounter changed my compass. It pointed me toward a life rooted in nature\, simplicity\, and spirit—and eventually toward Colombia. \nIn Colombia I apprenticed myself to the land and to elders who carry living traditions. Their teachings were not concepts but practices—how to listen\, how to sit with the fire\, how to enter the river with respect. About a decade ago\, when I felt most disconnected from myself and the speed of society\, these practices—along with clean food\, silence\, and prayer—brought me back. Becoming a father deepened the lesson: to be steady inside\, so the people you love can rest against you. \nBy trade I’m a woodworker. With my hands I shape spaces meant for slowness and truth. Together with Lara\, I built our retreat center with bamboo\, earth\, and intention. It’s a place where you can hear your own life again. \nWhat I offer on retreat is simple and elemental: \n\nNature as medicine. River immersions\, cold-water practice\, and time with the forest to settle your nervous system and clear the noise.\nRitual with respect. Teachings I’ve received from Colombian elders shared with humility—never as spectacle\, always as bridge.\nPresence. A calm\, grounded container so you can soften\, feel\, and choose what’s real for you.\nCrafted space. Environments built by hand to hold you—open-air\, fire-lit\, and honest.\n\nIf you feel overextended\, unsure\, or far from yourself\, I won’t ask you to perform or force a breakthrough. We’ll go to the elements. We’ll breathe. We’ll let the river do what rivers do—strip away what you don’t need and return you to what you do. \nIf you’re ready\, I’ll meet you by the water. \nIf this resonates with your heart and spirit\, it’s time to say YES and join us for a transformational journey! \nI say YES!Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) \nIn which language is the retreat?laragrofils2025-08-26T13:33:32-05:00In which language is the retreat?All group activities are in English. A basic level of understanding is enough — the language we truly speak is the body\, nature\, and presence.   \nBoth facilitators also speak French and Spanish\, so light translation can be offered if needed — but the retreat won’t be fully translated. \nWhat is the itinerary?laragrofils2025-08-26T13:33:13-05:00What is the itinerary?We always provide a general overview of the program\, leaving the details to be decided and experienced as the journey unfolds. Your trip leaders teach from life Itself\, as it guides them\, and that is always happening in the moment! \nDepending on the group’s energy\, the itinerary may shift in any direction. Please trust that magic will happen and that we have a wonderful journey planned for you. We look forward to a most exciting adventure together! \nAs a general flow\, we’ll come together twice a day for guided sessions and meaningful group connection. In between\, you’ll immerse yourself in a variety of experiences — from nature-based practices to creative and restorative activities. Most meals will be enjoyed at the retreat center\, with occasional excursions and special gatherings woven in to enrich the journey. \nHow do I get there?laragrofils2025-08-26T13:34:34-05:00How do I get there?We’ll meet at Medellín airport (José María Córdova International Airport) on the first day of the retreat. From there\, you’ll be guided step-by-step to reach the retreat center. Private group transport is arranged for the group at specific meeting times (arrive at the airport before 3 p.m). \nHow do I book flights?laragrofils2025-08-26T13:35:10-05:00How do I book flights?You’ll receive a list of airlines flying from the U.S. and Europe to Medellín. We won’t provide full booking assistance\, but we’re here to answer questions. \nWhat if I arrive earlier in Medellín?laragrofils2025-08-26T13:36:08-05:00What if I arrive earlier in Medellín?We recommend spending the night near the airport. You’ll receive a list of nearby hotels and transport tips. \nCan I come alone?laragrofils2025-08-26T13:36:54-05:00Can I come alone?Absolutely! Most participants come solo. The space is designed to foster authentic connection and community\, even if you arrive knowing no one. \nWhat’s available in the rooms?laragrofils2025-08-26T13:37:38-05:00What’s available in the rooms?You’ll find soft sheets\, fresh towels\, and organic soap provided. \nOnly the River Cabin has a mosquito net\, as it is closer to the water. That said\, we’re lucky to be in an area with very few mosquitoes\, so nets aren’t typically necessary in the other rooms. Still\, if you feel more comfortable with one\, feel free to bring your own. \nAre alcoholic drinks allowed?laragrofils2025-08-26T13:38:11-05:00Are alcoholic drinks allowed?No — this is a substance-free retreat. We invite you to experience the clarity and connection that come with a clear body and mind. \nIs there Wi-Fi?laragrofils2025-08-26T13:39:14-05:00Is there Wi-Fi?There is limited or no Wi-Fi at the retreat center — and that’s intentional. This is a time to unplug\, reconnect with yourself\, and fully immerse in the experience. \nThat said\, we understand if you need to stay connected for important matters. If that’s the case\, we suggest booking the River Cabin\, which has a good Wi-Fi connection. \nAlso\, Tigo\, Claro\, (Movistar) mobile networks generally have reliable signals on-site. \nIs this retreat for me?laragrofils2025-08-26T13:41:49-05:00Is this retreat for me?YES – especially if you’re a soul-seeker craving deep reconnection with yourself\, nature\, and your life’s true rhythm. \nThis retreat will give you the safe space\, tools\, and inspiration you need to realign with your essence and step into a life that feels authentic and alive. \nIs the water safe to drink?laragrofils2025-08-26T13:43:20-05:00Is the water safe to drink?Yes! The water is triple-filtered UV from the mountain’s well and perfectly healthy and safe to drink. \nHow can I take time for this?laragrofils2025-08-26T13:44:30-05:00How can I take time for this?You’re already doing and giving so much! But neglecting your own restoration can slowly drain your joy\, energy\, and clarity—until burnout feels inevitable. That’s exactly why you need this time to pause\, breathe\, and fill yourself back up. \nWhat’s the weather like in Cocorná in early February?laragrofils2025-12-17T14:02:07-05:00What’s the weather like in Cocorná in early February?Cocorná offers a mild and vibrant climate in early February: Expect daytime temperatures around 25-26 °C (77-79 °F)\, and evenings dipping to around 17 °C (63 °F). \nFebruary normally brings relatively gentle rainfall — fewer heavy downpours than the peak wet months\, with rain often falling in short bursts. \nYou’ll enjoy about 6 to 7 hours of sunshine per day\, with roughly 12 hours of daylight\, perfect for being out in nature and for your inner journey. \nThe air tends to feel humid yet comfortably cool\, especially near rivers and forested areas — refreshing\, grounding\, and full of life.

Recomiendo esta práctica a cualquiera que quiera reconectar con su cuerpo y su esencia. \nMaría Fernanda\, Colombia\nNunca había sentido tanta libertad en el movimiento. Las sesiones de danza terapia con Lara me ayudaron a soltar cargas emocionales que ni siquiera sabía que cargaba. Es un espacio seguro\, lleno de respeto\, donde cada quien puede ser y sentir sin juicios. \nJulien\, Francia\nParticipar en las clases de danza consciente de Lara fue un antes y un después en mi proceso personal. Su acompañamiento me permitió darme cuenta de cómo me relaciono con mi cuerpo y con los demás. Me sentí en confianza para explorar nuevas formas de expresión que ahora también aplico en mi día a día. \nAna Sofía\, México \nREGISTER

SUMMARY:From Insight to embodiment Webinar REPLAY (FREE)
DESCRIPTION:Home \nAccess free replay here  \nYOU’RE NOT SEEKING AN “AYAHUASCA EXPERIENCE.” \nbut a TRANSFORMATION THAT BECOMES YOUR LIFE \n  \nIn this FREE LIVE ONLINE GATHERING you will learn why you have to prepare your body and nervous system for plant medicine (and more specifically Ayahuasca)\, and how to truly integrate and embody its teachings. \nAccess free replay hereYou’re not searching for a trip\, a high\, or a story. You are here because you feel something calling you…a pull toward deeper truth and alignment. \nMaybe you have already touched profound insight — through ceremony\, therapy\, nature\, breath\, or life itself\, and now you long: \n\nTo embody the insights\nTo anchor the clarity\nTo bring the healing into your relationships\, your choices\, your daily actions\n\nThis is the longing of someone who is no longer chasing the peak — but devoted to the integration. \nBut here is the true: \n\nWithout somatic grounding before and after a ceremony\, even the most beautiful experience stays a memory – or worse\, it can dysregulate the system and create confusion instead of healing.\n \nWhen the body participates\, the vision can become reality and the whole journey becomes safer\, more regulated\, and more transformative. \n\nIn this FREE LIVE ONLINE GATHERING you will learn why you have to prepare your body and nervous system for plant medicine (and more specifically Ayahuasca)\, and how to truly integrate and embody its teachings. \nAccess free replay hereWhat’s inside this session \nTogether we will explore: \n✔ Why preparation matters — psychologically\, emotionally\, physically and spiritually\n✔ How the nervous system shapes your experience before\, during\, and after ceremony\n✔ What actually happens in the psyche during plant medicine journeys\n✔ Why some ceremonies open healing — and why others destabilize\n✔ The difference between vision and integration\n✔ Why emotional capacity matters more than mystical experience\n✔ How trauma and unfinished experiences can resurface in ceremony\n✔ The role of context\, safety\, and trust in deep work\n✔ Why “just drinking the medicine” is not enough\n✔ The mindset that leads to true transformation\, not chaos or confusion \nAccess free replay hereWho are we?\n\n\n\nLara is a somatic Practitioner and Trauma-Aware Facilitator walking a gentle\, step-by-step path with plant medicine.\n\nLara’s relationship with the medicine came slowly\, softly\, and with great respect. She did not rush toward the ceremony — she listened to her body\, and waited until it felt safe\, aligned\, and true.\nHer work is rooted in movement\, nervous-system awareness\, and trauma-sensitive space holding.\nShe helps others build capacity\, safety\, and sensitivity\, so that when the moment comes\, the medicine can land in the body.\nHer path holds those who feel called but want to proceed with care\, grounding\, and attunement. \n\n\nDiego is a ceremony guide and sacred space holder whose connection to the medicine came as a clear\, natural calling.\n\n\nFor Diego\, the path with ayahuasca arrived as an undeniable truth — a deep remembering\, a homecoming coded in his bones. He walks this path with humility\, devotion\, and reverence for ancestral tradition and for the land that taught him.\nDiego brings grounded presence\, integrity\, and a quiet strength\nthat helps people feel safe\, held\, and supported in the unknown.\nHis path holds those who feel a strong calling and are ready to step into the work with courage and trust. \n\n\n\nTogether:\n\nWe co-created Fuente Alegre\, a retreat center built with intention\, where we welcome people into experiences of simplicity\, depth\, and connection. \nPs: We do not serve medicine. The plant ceremonies we are accompanying are held by a dedicated and experienced Taita (shaman) from the Amazon\, who carry this medicine with tradition\, prayer\, and lineage. \n\n\nAccess free replay here \nIt’s completely free—just enter your email below\, and you will receive a link to the replay. \nBy sharing your email\, you understand you’ll be receiving access to the webinar\, plus access to valuable tips\, practices\, and resources we share to support your journey.
