The Red Latifa – Unleashing Strength and Courage

About the retreat

The Red Latifa is associated with the qualities of strength, courage, and action. It is called “Ruh,” meaning “soul” in Arabic, and is considered the soulful part of a person.

In this retreat, our intention is to cultivate presence and activate the ‘Red’ essence within. When the Red Latifa is active, it awakens strength and courage within an individual. This energy manifests as warmth and heat throughout the body, leading to a literal increase in body temperature, making one feel hot and energised.

Physically, it provides strength, vigour, and vitality
Spiritually, it gives courage, allowing individuals to face challenges and take risks in life
Mentally, it energises the mind, providing mental clarity, focus, and the ability to think clearly and vividly
Emotionally, it fosters the strength to experience and embrace all feelings without fear, making one feel capable of facing any emotional challenge.

When this energy is flowing, it brings a sense of excitement and enthusiasm for life, turning one on to the experience of living. It creates a feeling of being “turned on” to life, filling one with spirit and soulfulness.
