In the footsteps of Mary Magdalene

In the footsteps of Mary Magdalene

8-13 May 2024

 

Hosted by Johanna Ohls Stoltz and Lorna Nygren

Vegetarian meals by Lorna Nygren

 

Welcome to the mysterious and beautiful southern France.

An inner journey for you who yearns to find peace within.

A spiritual journey to activate your divine light, the divine feminine within and to experience your true essence.

 

Wonderful days in a fantastic environment together with other women in a small group and with personal commitment.

 

Our days will be filled with time in silence, meditation, yoga and energy work. Through various ceremonies, rituals in nature, energy work, healing, meditation and inner reflection, we meet the woman in ourselves. We explore Mary Magdalene energies and the divine feminine within us and learn more about Mary Magdalene, her wisdom, her teachings and what she means for us today.

 

On excursions to selected Maria Magdalena sites filled with legends and history we will experience the magical alchemy through various rituals. You get to meet yourself and your inner light, to nourish your soul. We grow together as a group and create a community that carries us forward on the journey of meeting ourselves.

 

Healthy nutritious meals mainly vegetarian and made from local ingredients will be served at the venue. We will visit a vineyard run by women for a wine tasting.

 

The setting with magical energies is surrounded by inspiring nature in an old beautifully restored mill along the river in Pierre Morte, close to St Chinian. In the generous garden you can stroll around, listen to the river and enjoy the summer heat or dive into the pool.

The mill has generous surfaces, a beautiful space for yoga or body medicine and communal gatherings. 

 

The rooms are tastefully decorated and different in character. You can choose between double rooms, suites for two to three people or a single room.

 

During the week, you have the possibility of individual coaching and energy treatments at a supplementary cost.

 

Your hosts will guide you through this wonderful week with generosity, joy and inner wisdom.

 

Welcome to meet the divine within yourself.

Part of the program consists of visiting carefully selected places charged with energies related to Mary Magdalene.

We visit Rennes le Château, the small village with the mythical priest Berenger Sauniere and the mysteries surrounding the Holy Grail.

 

In a remote river basin just outside the medieval town of Caunes Minervois lies a hidden gem. In this sacred valley we find a medieval chapel, Notre Dame du Cros and a sacred spring. Here we enjoy our picnic in this beautiful place.

 

The medieval village of Minerve offers a special atmosphere that we can experience firsthand. A spectacular fortified city regarded as the holy city of the Cathars.

 

Together we explore who Mary Magdalene was. What she means for us today. The divine feminine within us. Feminine power. Through various ceremonies, rituals in nature, energy work, healing, yoga, meditation and inner reflection, we meet the woman in ourselves. We grow together as a group and create a community that carries us forward on the journey of meeting ourselves.

We end the week with a lighting ceremony.
