" Rediscovering
the Legacy of Mary Magdalene
Sacred Feminine • Healing • Workshops
In the heart of the Sainte-Baume mountain range, this retreat is an
invitation to reconnect with the sacred figure of Mary Magdalene, an
initiated woman, guardian of the oils, and apostle to the apostles.
A path of reconnection to the soul, to the forgotten memory of feminine
figures, and to the inner union of polarities.
A space at the crossroads of religious and shamanic traditions.

partnership with the association @calem.institute
Time for meditation, dhikr, and prayers.
The
