Details

Immerse in Nature. Remember Your Wisdom. Return to Yourself. Elemental Immersion is a deeply nourishing retreat designed to slow you down, ground you, and reconnect you with the living wisdom of nature that lives inside you. Let nature be the remembering. Held during the transitional season of Autumn, this retreat invites you into the inner autumn cycle: a time of reflection, release, and energetic recalibration. Through earth inspired rituals, yoga, embodiment practices, sisterhood, and slow living, you’ll learn to honor your own seasons of life, just as nature does - instead of rushing your innate rhythm.

Location

Gambarogno, Switzerland

Located in the Italian-speaking canton of Ticino, 6579 Piazzogna is a quiet hillside village overlooking the sparkling waters of Lake Maggiore in southern Switzerland. Surrounded by chestnut forests, terraced slopes, and panoramic mountain views, the area is known for its peaceful atmosphere and strong connection to nature. Its traditional stone homes and small village charm reflect the region’s alpine-meets-Mediterranean character, while nearby lakeside towns, hiking trails, and scenic viewpoints offer opportunities for both relaxation and outdoor exploration in one of Switzerland’s most picturesque landscapes.

Here, nature is not just scenery — it’s a living presence woven into every moment. This land becomes part of the practice, supporting rest, reflection, embodiment, and a deep remembering of your connection to the natural world. Each dwelling includes a peaceful sleeping area, cozy living space, and kitchenette with coffee and tea facilities.

Schedule

“This retreat is about being held by Mother Earth, it’s a remembering.” It’s about slow mornings, softening your nervous system, and immersing yourself in the elements — earth, water, fire, air, and ether to rediscover the parts of yourself that have been forgotten in your fast-paced lifestyle. Nature becomes both mirror and teacher: She doesn’t rush She moves in cycles She rests when it’s time to rest She expresses herself freely, wildly, and unapologetically Here, you’ll remember that you are nature — free, untamed, and wise. Throughout the week, we’ll explore different landscapes and elements to awaken different parts of self. You’ll be guided into presence through… Chakra-based yoga & meditation Breathwork for nervous system Somatic & Embodiment Practices Devotional Rituals & Reflections Community Living & Integration Phones are tucked away. Responsibilities are set down. Slow mornings and spacious afternoons are woven throughout — honoring rest as a sacred practice. This is an invitation to disconnect from the noise — and reconnect to what is real.

Testimonials

info

Traveling with Anayat has given me the most healing and transformative experiences of my life. I’ve joined retreats in Morocco, Aruba, Egypt, and Bali—and each one was uniquely powerful. Anayat creates a space that blends connection, mindfulness, healing, and adventure in the most intentional and beautiful way. Every retreat feels like a soulful journey with unforgettable locations, meaningful experiences, and a community that feels like family. The people I met through her retreats have become lifelong friends on a shared path of growth and exploration.

Gina Tringali, United States

I met Anayat last year at one of her local metro-Detroit sisterhood meetups, and my life truly hasn’t been the same since. After joining several of her sisterhood and yoga gatherings around the area, I felt called to attend her retreat in Mallorca, Spain this past spring—and it was absolutely life-changing. The intention of the retreat was to embrace slow living and reconnect with the inner child—the part of us that loves to play, express freely, and form meaningful bonds that often get lost as we move through adulthood with so much seriousness and responsibility. Through daily yoga, meditation, and deeply vulnerable workshops, I reconnected with my inner child and allowed myself to grow through adventure, genuine connection, sisterhood, and honest emotional expression. Anayat has a gift for creating judgment-free, safe, and empowering spaces that invite healing, mindfulness, connection, and adventure. I always leave her events feeling more aligned with myself and inspired to show up as a better version of me in every area of my life. If you’re looking for a grounded, relatable, and truly inspiring retreat leader, yoga instructor, and life coach, look no further—Anayat with Anu Rising is the real deal!

Kate Valchine, United States

My experience with Anayat has been truly life-altering. From the deep, intentional work that Anayat facilitates to the incredible retreats she hosts, every moment has been transformative. I’ve connected with beautiful, like-minded women and have had the opportunity to dive deeply into myself in a safe and empowering space. Whether it’s yoga, sound baths, retreats, or any of the events she offers—each one is crafted with so much care and purpose. I can’t recommend Anayat enough. If you’re looking for healing, connection, and growth, this is where you’ll find it.
