Need to slow down?
Welcome to the Pays des Écrins, where three enthusiasts share their art of rejuvenation.
Helen’s Yoga
Hélène Ducournau arrived one summer to climb, but has never left. Based in the Écrins, this former osteopathy student trained in yoga in India. Today, she teaches vinyasa flow : a dynamic, playful and adaptable yoga, nourished by her travels, her encounters and the mountains. In the gym or in the open air, her sessions are an invitation to breathe, to anchor and to relax. Everyone comes to pick up what they need, quite simply.
Marie-Noëlle’s pickings
In L’Argentière-la-Bessée, Marie-Noëlle Peguy is a picker like no other. Ethnobotanist and mountain guide, she invites you to rediscover wild plants. Observe, touch, smell, taste… After the harvest comes the cooking: pestos, infusions, nettle pies… A joyful transmission of forgotten knowledge and well-established recipes.
Lucas’ forest bathing
Lucas Bessy, forest bathing guide and intuitive musician, offers short but profound experiences. Less than a kilometre, three hours of slow immersion, to listen to the trees, his breath, life. In addition? Sound journeys on the handpan or the guitar, played as one speaks to the heart.
Where to live these experiences?
- Yoga: outdoors or in a gym in Vallouise and the surrounding area.
- Picking: around L’Argentière-la-Bessée, in Marie-Noëlle’s garden.
- Sylvotherapy: in the peaceful forests of the Pays des Écrins, just a stone’s throw from your home.
Breathe… There you are.
