the art of natural high events
Do you know the excitement of extreme happiness while dancing to the musical climax at a vibrant dance party? Your body’s super active, but your mind is focused and nicely quiet. Eduard Kouwen discovered that this free-flowing energy is comparable to the natural high he experienced after a yoga practice or a great physical workout.
This high supports you in doing, being, and experiencing everything you wish and in waking up the next day feeling fresh and ready for the gloriousness of life!
Eduard Kouwen’s Journey from Addiction Coach to Natural High Advocate
For years Eduard worked as a coach for drugs and alcohol addicts. Currently, he organizes Natural High Events. “I always said that there should be a good replacement for drugs, to be able to get out of it. After discovering this natural high I had found this replacement,” Eduard explains.
The Art of Natural High organizes workshops and events to make people experience that great positive feeling of going ‘sky-high’ in a healthy way. How? By doing activities like yoga, breathing, dancing, sound healing, tantra, and being in nature. It’s all about making a connection with yourself, others, and the surroundings that create endorphins (hormones of happiness) in your brain.
Experiencing the Art of Breathing Festival at Ruigoord
We have visited the Art of Breathing festival at Ruigoord. This area is known for its psychedelic dance events in the hippie community. But we have to say, it is the perfect spot to get high on your own supply.
They offer several workshops, yoga classes, ceremonies, treatments, massages, and readings in the magical church – the center of the universe -, the Salon and the surrounding fields. There is a cozy market, where they serve amazing Asian vegan food, and in the evening we enjoyed live music while relaxing near the bonfire. All while surrounded by the beauty of nature of this place.
A Personal Journey of Discovery with Marjolein de Vries
We booked a reading session by Marjolein de Vries in the Pyramid. Her natural talent is to observe souls and to pass on your life goal, hidden talents, and blockages. She guided us to tap into our inner power, trust the process and allow life to unfold.
The Big Breath Explosion: A Collective Breathing Experience
Thanks to the extremely sunny weather we gathered outside for the Big Breath Explosion guided by Tom van Huijstee and friends. While laying down in a field of grass we were deeply breathing in fresh oxygen and breathing out toxins.
This collective breath work was guided by several instruments, and the rising energy was amazing. It was the perfect way to release all of what is stocked in our body and what we don’t need any more in our life. Shout it all out!
Exploring Tantra through Breath with Joyce Bosch and Thierry La Fronde Schneiders
Then we moved into the church to experience the Tantra by Breath workshop guided by the couple Joyce Bosch and Thierry La Fronde Schneiders. We experienced different solo and partner exercises with the focus on breathing. A great way to connect with ourselves and others in a loving way.
Conclusion: A Fulfilling Day of Love, Light, and Happiness
All in all, a wonderful day full of excitement, energy, healing, release, and connection. We were fulfilled with love, light, and happiness. No substances or stimulants needed, for sure!
