Private Shamanic Breathwork & Healing Retreat on Mauritius Beach

Clémence and Manu met in Peru's Sacred Valley, where they spent four years apprenticing with different shamans and connecting with mountain communities. Clémence, originally from Mauritius, trained in osteopathy in France before turning to Chinese medicine, Reiki, Shiatsu, and reflexology. She received teachings on the four elements and shamanic runes from her spiritual guides. Manu, from central France, left a career as an optician to follow a path in holistic therapy — breathwork, energy healing, and focusing. Their combined skills create a rich, multidisciplinary retreat experience.

The retreat is private and completely personalized. Before you arrive, you'll have a conversation to define your intentions and objectives. From there, Clémence and Manu adapt each day's program based on what surfaces — whether that's a particular emotion, a memory, or a release. The activities draw from a deep toolbox: sharing circles, forgiveness ceremonies, cacao ceremonies, multiple breathwork styles (holistic, liberation, inner journey, rebirthing), shamanic rapé, cleansing baths, guided meditations, water-element healing, energy work, creative workshops, and personal development sessions. No two retreats are the same.

The villa sits right on the beach at Roches Noires, facing the lagoon. You'll be steps from the water, with kayaks and snorkel gear available for free-time adventures. The island itself is a bonus — tropical climate, warm waters, and lush scenery. Guests often extend their stay to explore more of Mauritius, and the hosts are happy to recommend places to stay and things to do.

Reviews speak to the transformation guests experience. One traveler, Lea, described it as helping her recognize deep wounds around her relationship with her parents and feeling 'more serene' afterwards. Another, burned out from work, came back 'calmer' and more at peace. The hosts are praised for their kindness, attentiveness, and the quality of the meals. It's a small, intimate operation — you're not a number, you're a guest in their home, and they genuinely care about your healing.
