A Sound Bath is an immersion in beautiful sounds and vibrations that are healing for your body, mind and spirit. It is a deeply relaxing, meditative experience which can take you on a journey of deep relaxation, healing and self-discovery.   For this special occasion set your intentions for the heart by letting go of all that no longer serves you and celebrate knowing you are exactly where you need to be!  

Vibrations and sounds produced by singing bowls and tuning forks can “tune” your body, mind and spirit back into alignment.

During a Sound Bath you will experience deep relaxation and a profound sense of peace and well-being. It begins with a short, guided meditation to prepare your body and mind for the experience which follows. You will experience the healing power of crystal singing bowls, tuning forks and a crystal pyramid.

Duration:  45 minutes

Cost:  $35 for Members (Yearly, Semi and Unlimited Monthly) 

$40 for Non-Members. 

Italy is our favorite place on Earth and Tuscany is our favorite place in all of Italy.  What makes this retreat and this particular place so special is the fact that we were divinely and mystically guided to La Selvella.  Roger and Albina together with their 2 daughters just “randomly” walked into this place on their world travels a few years back. It turns out that La Selvella is owned by Albina’s cousin Marina, that she didn’t even know existed.  See video below for the whole story.

Now you get to experience all the magic of this place on Earth surrounded by family, exquisite food and wine, breath-taking beauty, adventure and so much love.

Join Roger & Albina Rippy, experienced yoga teachers, serial entrepreneurs and world travelers for a 5-day adventure Under the Tuscan Sun on September 13-18 in the heart of the Italian wine region, Tuscany,

Savor exquisite farm-to-table homemade Tuscan food and wine grown right at Agriturismo La Selvella and all the incredible things Marina and her family are doing at La Selvella: witness the daily life on the organic farm, feed the animals, take a stroll in the olive tree orchard, or chill by the swimming pool and breathe in the pleasure of simply being Under The Tuscan Sun.
