UNCOVER YOUR TRUE NATURE

Uncover your unique expression and creative potential

What to Expect

During this retreat you will find a deeper understanding of why your life is exactly as it should be, and what it is inviting you for. You will uncover your unique expression and creative potential. You will leave Amiglia with new inspiration of how to express your uniqueness while being part of a bigger whole.

What does it mean to be me? What is my unique expression? How can I uncover more of my creative potential? 

❋ Questions

This retreat is led by Zoë Joncheere.

Zoe proposes different kinds of practice to go on this deep journey, and transform as an individual and as a group. She is inspired by non-duality, sufism, tantrism, and most of all her own research and experience, as a facilitator, traveler and writer.

❋ Guidance

In this retreat we learn to differentiate between the person that we are - with all its inherited and adopted features - and our true nature. We drop layers and find that we don’t have to try hard, invent originality, or force ourselves to be more loving and lovable. Our true nature IS love. Our true nature IS expressing itself in a unique way. We just have to look into what stands in the way. By doing that, we become more transparant and less attached, available for life itself to happen through us. We become more ‘nobody’, and that is so much easier than identify with the person. Life starts being a dance.

Spending time at Amiglia, experiencing the gentle guidance of the place, and the natural unfolding of things, helps us remember how it is to live naturally and with ease. 

❋ Exploring

We prioritize comfort, safety, and respect—so you can show up as you are and fully engage in the process.

❋ A Supportive Space

Led by an experienced guide who knows how to hold space, encourage participation, and keep things moving with purpose.

❋ Expert Facilitation

    Participant of Uncover Your True Nature Retreat

  • Zoe has created a truly unique place and space for people with cravings for inquiry and self-realization. The whole place breathes with Zoe’s feminine presence. However, at Amiglia we are not breathing. Breathing is happening.

    Participant of Uncover Your True Nature Retreat

  • I liked the idea of dancing and also having freedom. As well as learning new things without pressure. It is easy to connect with your true self in this silent place with all the good energy around. I feel very rested and relaxed. I feel more positive about life after the retreat. I'm very grateful to Zoë, Amiglia felt like home. Thanks for the love and acceptance as I am.

How It Works

  • The retreat starts on Sunday with an evening session. We like you to land at Amiglia before.

    We’ll end the retreat on Saturday in the morning.

  • Amiglia offers private rooms and shared rooms. Check out on our website what suits you best.

  • Provide us with all the information we need. You can also tell us if you would like to arrive on an earlier day or stay longer. Don’t forget to mention if you have a special diet.

  • We will confirm your registration and you will receive an email with extra information a few weeks before the start of your retreat.

    We will also provide you with information about how we like to receive your donation once you have arrived.

  • It’s easy to come by train to Amiglia. The Spigno (Monferrato) railway station is at less than 5km and we are happy to pick you up (for free). The closest airport is Genova. Sometimes it’s more convenient to fly to Milan. Let us know if you are looking for co-driving partners. Maybe we can help.
