Experience the romance of a spring getaway in Drôme Provençale.
Deploy your creativity, touch beauty, share sweet moments of life in a dream setting.
I am happy to offer you again a retreat in this magnificent place, for a weekend.
A time long enough to disconnect and find yourself and short enough to organize yourself and stay in touch with reality.
In this retreat our life together will be punctuated by movement practices, connection and creativity workshops, times of exploration and discussion, healthy meals lovingly prepared by an on-site chef.
The luxury of a simple life.
Program
circle and opening practice
morning meditation and dynamic movement practices
workshops to unleash your creativity
experiences to connect
free time by the pool or in the many indoor and outdoor spaces of the house

exchanges and discussions around the art of a simple, gentle and serene life
healthy and friendly meals
circle and closing practice
An intense program where you always have the freedom to participate or not in the proposed activities. I wish to respect the need for sleep and rest, the need to isolate yourself or to be surrounded. I encourage you to listen to your needs at the time and try to make this listening accessible throughout the retreat. No judgment, no discrimination is made on the response to these needs, which concerns each person.
Creativity, connection
Workshops will be offered to deploy creativity. If it can arise by itself, certain provisions can stimulate it. We will take care to sharpen our senses to let ourselves be touched by beauty, create, improvise, free ourselves. All opportunities will be good to take to express it whether it is to set a beautiful table, to describe one's impressions, to move, to change one's habits, to listen or to observe.
Connection workshops will be punctuated during the weekend in order to facilitate and accelerate the links between you, with the unique environment of this retreat, and within you. We will experience connection with depth and lightness to feel and recognize what drives us intimately. Here too, all opportunities will be right to seize to live these moments, during meals, practices, by connecting to oneself, by opening space to the other, or by contemplating nature.
Do you have something in particular you would like to share? We can schedule a dedicated time to integrate in advance.
Practical
Through practices inspired by several disciplines, explore yoga (hatha, vinyasa, yin), meditation, guided and free movement.
Practices proposed and designed to be accessible to all, where you are given the responsibility of respecting your physical and psychological integrity.
A freedom through autonomy where effort should not be synonymous with pain or performance, where exploration is done with joyful curiosity, where mixed feelings are observed and traversed with compassion and gentleness.
Freedom through a given framework to move alone, in pairs or in groups, I will offer adjustments if necessary and desired. Here, we explore our limits and our current capacities to go further or further than the supposed field of possibilities.
Pratiques en extérieur si le temps le permet ou dans la belle salle dédiée avec vue panoramique.
Food
If the body, heart and mind are also nourished differently, it is undeniable that diet has a major impact on our physical, psychological and emotional functioning.
Healthy, seasonal food from sustainable agriculture will be offered to you. We promote short supply chains with ecological concerns and the promotion of local production.
When I say we, it is especially the chef Clotilde who will offer us a 100% vegetable cuisine and 100% made with love. Clotilde will be with us throughout the retreat, I am very happy to partner with her again for this retreat.
Respectful nutritional principles are applied, the result of continuous research on the subject to respect the body and simply meet its needs.
All special diets are welcome.
Place of life
Au milieu de la nature, les montagnes en haut, la
Drôme en bas, nous séjournerons dans cette ancienne magnanerie du XVIIIe siècle entièrement rénovée avec des matériaux nobles et tout le confort moderne.
Accessible en train à 15' de la gare de Saillans ou Valence à 2h de Paris en TGV puis 1h de taxi.
Un lieu qui porte bien son nom, "une maison de rêves", c'est tout naturellement que j'ai souhaité de nouveau vous proposer un weekend dans cet environnement exceptionnel où l'on est plongé hors du temps, en pleine nature, où la vie intérieure et extérieure invitent à la contemplation, au ressourcement et à l'émerveillement. Comprenant différents lieux de vie, salons, terrasses, c'est une maison d'un grand confort où l'énergie circule.
Les chambres ont toutes des lits simples et ont leur salle de bain attenante ou intégrée. A occuper seul ou à partager à deux.

"Retreat in an idyllic location, very well organized, accompanied by a superb cook, with varied practices as well as other activities that allow you to connect with yourself while disconnecting! Agathe knew how to listen and be attentive to the whole group and managed to create a real space of trust and kindness during these 3 days. Thank you for everything, it was a suspended moment, rich in emotions that I will recommend to other people without hesitation!"
Alexane

"A moment out of time. Thank you Agathe: for your gentleness, for these yoga practices that push us to go further, for the exchanges, the reconnection with oneself, the massage, the good meals, the laughter... and all that in an incredible setting. I am completely recharged."

Agathe is the perfect yoga teacher! She has a soft and soothing voice. Her advice is always timely and beneficial. With Agathe, we progress without realizing it."
Anastasia
"A short weekend retreat that allowed me to escape from my daily life and that I experienced as a bubble of oxygen rich in beautiful encounters in an unusual place, quality organic food, sharing workshops like games that awakened the child in me and above all yoga practices mixing several facets of yogic philosophy (movements, stretching, meditation, singing, etc.). Thank you again for everything!"
Blandine
A DREAM! A first retreat that I will remember all my life!! A real moment for oneself in a bubble of gentleness and kindness, and this feeling remains with us for a long time. Agathe coordinated with a master's hand so that the magic happened in this magnificent house nestled in the Drôme Provençale. The yoga practices were very balanced in rhythm and intensity, and I really liked the workshops that made us feel a lot of emotions. A group of girls at the top, laughter and tears, without judgment, a real happiness! The plant-based food was really tasty and exquisite, an excellent surprise, me who was afraid of being hungry... Really great.
Jennifer
"Un week-end où l’on prend le temps. Le temps d’être en résonance avec soi et les autres. Un espace de dialogue que Agathe a su faire naître. Chacun a pu partager un morceau de lui et faire vibrer le groupe de son regard et sa créativité, son expression. Entre bienveillance et ouverture du coeur. Cela a été une belle opportunité de faire un pas de côté et c’est également un espace de rencontre dont on ressort à la fois ressourcé et enrichit. 🙏🏻"
