About Human Design Readings
Human Design is a system based on Western Astrology, Chinese I-Ching, Tree of Life from Kabbalah, chacras, and quantum physics. It uses your date, time, and place of birth to give your genetic blueprint - a roadmap of who you are and who you are designed to be.
It can give you clarity about your:
Unique gifts and purpose
How you can best use your energy
How you can best make decisions
What tools and strategies to use to get into alignment
A lot of other information to navigate your life, career, relationships with much more ease and flow
Human Design gives you a language to describe things we sometimes cannot describe on our own. It shows you your unique essence, your authentic self, who you really are at your deepest level beyond any levels of conditioning.
It gives you full permission to be who you truly are and own your power.
What is Human Design?
Retreat Host
Sakshi
Almost two decades ago, I took my first yoga class tired and stiff from the corporate 9 to 5, I was hooked on the way I felt -more grounded, happier, stronger and healthier.
A journalism major in college and former oriental art PR & publicist, my inquisitive nature gave way to a strong desire for an alternative lifestyle and self-inquiry which turned into a lifelong passion. In past years, I certified in different disciplines like Hatha, Meridian Yin Yoga, Acupressure, Traditional Chinese Massage and Chair/Senior Yoga.
I finished two different 200-hour Yoga Teacher Trainings as well as the advanced 300-hour Yoga Teacher Training.
On top of that I'm a retreat addict! Understanding the importance of looking after my mental health and general wellbeing, over the past years, I have been attending retreats at least twice a year. There is something very special about sharing an experience with like minded strangers, finding back your inner strength and balance.
A key factor I have learnt is that a smaller group makes for a better experience, so spots are limited!
My mission in this retreat is to create the kind of retreats that I am myself looking for.
A sanctuary where, for a few days, you will be cherished as I share the magic toolbox of yoga with you while bringing back the balance in your body, mind & heart!

My journey started when I left home to study abroad at the age of 18 and since then, I have lived, worked, and studied in France, England, Bali, Canada, Zambia, Colombia, and for the past 5 years, I’ve been living in Spain. During my years of self-discovery, I got degrees in Sociology & Psychology, International Relations, Nutrition & Naturopathy.
I am absolutely fascinated and obsessed with human beings. Over the years, I have studied Sociology, Psychology, Yoga, Nutrition, Naturopathy, Coaching, to get more understanding of how we as humans function, and how to help ourselves to feel good and function properly. In recent years I became more interested in the emotional and energetic components of our beings, as I saw clearly while working as a Nutritionist that in order to be healthy, we need not only to heal on a physical level but also on emotional and energetic ones.
This is when I discovered Human Design. Human Design is a wonderful tool to learn about yourself, to understand how you function best, to see clearly who you are under the layers of conditioning, who you were designed to be, and what is your purpose in this lifetime. I combine Human Design with coaching so that I can give you very practical tools in order to transform your life, as I strongly believe that knowledge without integration is useless. I combine my readings with a small cacao ceremony to help you to be more open and receptive during the session.

From the first moment I was made very welcome by Sakshi, which as a beginner made it very easy to integrate with the other students. The atmosphere and feelings within that Sakshi creates is on a different level, a wee bit like a pre-op tablet. I feel super relaxed and alive at the end of her classes. A very special lady for sure, if you ever feel about giving yoga a go at whatever level, I can not recommend her enough!

Oh what a great revelation! I could not even imagine the territory that the practice of Yin Yoga has opened up in me! It is the first time in my life that I have achieved such a deep level of connection with my tissues and especially with my internal organs. The work of Sakshi is impeccable!
