Séverine’s yoga journey began in 2007 as a way to find balance amid a demanding career and personal life. What started as a personal practice soon became a professional calling, leading her to share the profound benefits of yoga with others.
In 2016, she completed her 200-hour Hatha Yoga Teacher Training (TTC) with Yogalife in Belgium. She later specialized in Yin Yoga, Therapeutic Yoga, and holistic body optimization, studying with leading teachers across Europe.
Beyond yoga, Séverine is a certified Breathwork Coach and Emotional Release Facilitator, integrating breathwork, meditation, and trauma release techniques into her teachings. Her sessions guide students toward emotional healing, self-awareness, and deep relaxation.

Séverine’s teaching style is intuitive, vibrant, and deeply healing, blending Hatha, Yin, Vinyasa, Yogalates, and Kundalini Awakening Journeys.

A Safe & Transformative Healing Space
Your retreat begins with a warm welcome and a grounding session to help you settle into your private, luxurious accommodations. As the sun sets, you’ll join fellow participants for a nourishing dinner and an opening circle to set intentions for the days ahead. A calming sauna or emotional release session allows you to fully unwind and prepare for the transformative experiences to come.
Each morning starts with yoga, breathwork, or meditation, grounding you in the present moment and creating a sense of inner stability. After a nourishing breakfast, you’ll have time to connect with nature, allowing the peaceful surroundings to ease your mind and body.
Guided Psilocybin Therapy for Deep Healing
At the heart of the retreat are the guided psilocybin ceremonies, carefully designed to help you release fear, process trauma, and rewire negative thought patterns. Led by medical professionals and certified psychedelic therapists, these sessions take place in a safe and optimized environment, where you receive the highest level of support and care.
Following each ceremony, we guide you through deep integration workshops, emotional release techniques, and therapeutic practices to ensure that your breakthroughs are lasting.
Microdosing as Part of Long-Term Integration
Healing doesn’t stop when the retreat ends. Microdosing therapy is offered as an optional post-retreat integration tool, helping you sustain mental clarity, emotional balance, and personal growth long after your journey with us. By supporting neuroplasticity, microdosing assists in keeping you out of depressive cycles and helps prevent relapse into old patterns of anxiety and overthinking.
A Personalized Approach to Mental Well-Being
This retreat is carefully designed to meet you where you are and help you create meaningful, lasting transformation. Beyond the psilocybin ceremonies, we offer:
One-on-One Coaching & Emotional Release Sessions – Personalized guidance to help you navigate challenges and integrate your experience.
A Nurturing Healing Environment – Private accommodations, organic farm-to-table meals, and access to a sauna, hot tub, and meditation gardens to promote relaxation and deep healing.
High-Level Mentorship for Personal & Professional Growth – This retreat goes beyond healing—it is an opportunity to rediscover your purpose, regain confidence, and create a future that excites you.
Ongoing Integration Support – Through structured follow-up coaching and optional microdosing, we ensure that the breakthroughs you experience translate into real, lasting change.
Your Journey Toward Freedom Starts Here!
Your final day is a celebration of the clarity and emotional freedom you’ve gained. A bodywork session helps you reconnect with your body, followed by a closing circle and mandala creation, symbolizing renewal and transformation. As you depart, you’ll feel renewed, empowered, and ready to embrace life with a new sense of balance and purpose.
This retreat is more than a getaway—it is a life-changing opportunity to overcome depression and anxiety in a safe, expertly guided environment.
If you’re ready to leave behind the weight of emotional disbalance and embrace a new way of being, this retreat is your next step.
