Yossum Return to the Heart Process
15 – 19 February 2012
Waldhaus in Lützelflüh, Switzerland
Fully Booked
Our process is structured to create a container of valuable practices for you. The core of every Yossum Process consists of the four pillars: Yoga, Silence, Self-Understanding and Meditation.
Being absorbed by modern life tends to make us put aside the potential of our Human Spirit. Through the practices during the Process we are opening possibilities for re-connecting. With Meditation we begin to settle the activity of our busy mind and potentially land in Presence. With Yoga we practice how to come back and experience the connection to our own bodies. And finally with the Self-Understanding workshops we explore what are the underlying causes of forgetting what can bring us true contentment.
Silence periods can release more emotional tensions and past related issues than almost any other practice. Silence increases inner awareness and the mind becomes more present, greatly enhancing the ability to absorb yoga and experience meditation. We have introduced many people to the practice of silence and although most of them have never tried it before, most people experience the space with a big sense of relief to not have to connect and have the permission to be quiet.
During the Yossum Process we will also help you to build a practice to transform your daily life into a more meaningful reality. The challenges in life, if understood correctly, are the very forces that are making you evolve and live a creative life. The Yossum Process can help you feel the difference between living on an automatic pilot and as a free human spirit.

Teachers
Kali Ornelas - Self Understanding and Meditation
Kali uses the Enneagram system as a mirror for your inner work as well as her skills at trauma healing and other expressions of her therapeutic methods. Her sessions are powerful and eye opening. Her sessions tend to get fully booked in advance. Please indicate in your Booking Form if you would like us to reserve times for you.

Emilio Mercuriali - Essence
Emilio uses a system that focus on reconnecting to our true nature through the understanding and processing of our personality structure. In his sessions he facilitates self-exploration and helps to distinguish between the false personality and the real aspects of our Being, which we call Essence. When we recognize essence we start building a relationship with it that keeps on growing and supporting us in our development.
Zuzana Novotna - Yoga
Zuzana will be your Yoga teacher during this process. The daily yoga classes support you to understand your body. A perfect way to release tension and be present. It is also possible to book private yoga classes.
