Introduction and practice session on Dr. Vittoz's method

The Vittoz method helps people suffering from stress or anxiety to rediscover their inner balance and a healthy relationship with others and their environment.

Letting God speak to us through smells, sounds, sight, touch, and taste (yes! it is possible!). This session is to be experienced as a retreat, with 8 hours of personal accompaniment throughout.

• From Monday, November 29 at 6:00 PM to Friday, December 3 at 3:00 PM.

• Learning to receive a Gospel with all the senses, and to welcome the emotions that a biblical text can awaken.

• This is achieved through various workshops and the Vittoz method.

• Formation sessions to discover the method, exercise times in a group setting (such as mindful walking), and several personal time slots for integration or accompaniment.

• Several times of prayer: daily praise and Mass, as well as the rosary, adoration, and evening gatherings during which a personal journey is offered.

• A very relaxed and restful daily rhythm.
