SPIRITUAL RECREATION RETREAT

the SRR series is a unique and creative retreat experience that guides us through seven chapters of alignment to higher frequencies. every day, our tribe enters collectively a different chapter embodying techniques of movement, sound, co-creation, art, yoga, meditation, journaling, dance, singing, breath, and else. as we are completely zoning out of the day to day city-live, we are zoning deeply inwards, while being hold by the trees in the forest on top of one of the most protective mountains on the aegean coast: mount baba.



“7 CHAPTERS AT THE RETREAT ARE BECOMING CHAPTERS OF A WHOLE LIFE”
— thank you yasemin!
you have created a place where people
who were strangers just a few days before,
give each other closeness, comfort and love.
a place where sensitivity and vulnerability
with courage and playfulness develop a
wonderful creative power.
a place where single days become
chapters of a whole life.
your work is nourishment,
it creates peace and it
brings healing: it changes this world.






a—WEEK ON MOUNT BABA 

LOCATION

taurus mountains in turkiye

TAURUS MOUNTAINS, MOUNT BABA, BABAKAMP

historically, all the great sages, masters, yogis and prophets have gone to higher altitudes to go into samadhi (a deep state of meditation). these great yogis appreciated the protection of the rocks, caves and the nature around them, finding the solitude they sought. there are even scriptures, which mention that one can be liberated from worldly transgressions by gazing on the mighty mountains and this can open the doors of self-realisation. we can not promise you any of that :), but we would love to invite you to figure it out yourself. join us in the forest, 1.300 m above sea level on mount baba at kamp baba in the turkish taurus mountains. once you’ll arrive here time stops, we slow down, we digital detox, no city stress, no traffic, no concrete. wide nature, forest, mountain, wild horses, a camp built with natural resources - this will be our home to completely zone out and tune in.

EXPERIENCE

WHAT IS HOLDING YOU BACK FROM LIVING THE LIFE THAT YOU IMAGINE FOR YOURSELF?

through my experience over the past years of retreating, i have discovered that many people join right before, or passing through a phase of transformation. whether you had some challenging months at work and need rest, or you want to find new orientation and inner connection in your life.
my personal life mantra “what is holding me back from living the life i imagine for myself” led me to question almost everything in life and has connected me to the language of my soul “excitement”. often excitment is difficult to hear. any yoga technique is shifting awareness from a more external state to an internal state. the process of awareness can have a beautiful result on our lives we can make decisions based on our internal feelings, from our intuition, rather than from external factors or external influences or inputs. and what is the deepest fundamental experience that we can have?

— THE SELF.





once you decided to join and paid the deposit, we’ll meet for a 10 min intention call. yasemins work is centred around intention. your very individual intention is shaping the collective group experience. Let’s pre-align.

together we’ll be stepping into the journey that we are about to co-create. expect a beautiful fire ceremony at the camp. area setting + creation of a safe space + fire ceremony

what is holding you back from living the life you imagine for yourself? this has been a great mantra that has been guiding yasemin on her very own personal journey.in this chapter we'll be exploring fear based consciousness shinrin yoku + hatha + vibrations + yin around the gong + circle of integration

together we are releasing stagnant energies of our energy bodies. dervish shaking meditation + breath around the gong + music + circle of integration.

a beautiful excursion into the turquoise waters of fethiye. At the evening: sound alchemy fusion

union based consciousness means to be able to go beyond the ego and identification and realise that you are part of one greater - the collective consciousness. sound co_creation + feeling into union

collectively we are celebrating life with movement, dance and more

together we are stepping out of our experience with a concept developed by yasemin called "tunnel of love"

after the retreat we won’t leave you alone with your new frequency. in our integration call we align with all SRR-participant including breathwork and other tools to integrate and share everything we’ve learned.


our training will be well structured moving between mind - body - mind and play. you’ll receive a full presentation with all knowledge and can surrender to just being and creating, learning and connecting.

COMMUNITY



“THE SRR IS NOT JUST ANOTHER RETREAT”
— the spiritual recreation retreat at babakamp is not just another retreat,
its a very transformational experience.
you will find yourself on the top of the mountain,
surrounded by a large forest overlooking the sea.
Of course there is yoga involved,
but there are also plenty of other activities.
dancing, movement, breathwork, rituals with fire.
as a facilitator, yasemin, who comes from turkey,
makes the connection to the place even more special.
if you are looking for something transformational,
this is really the right place for you.







WHAT TYPE OF PEOPLE JOIN THIS RETREAT?


in the past we have experienced a great mix of locals, Turkish people from Germany, Germans and internationals from Austria, Switzerland and the UK. This retreat is for all genders and backgrounds. Our participants are artists, business workers, students, and come in all ages. Our youngest participant was 18, while our oldest was 55. Usually our participants have experienced or are in front of moments of transformation. Many are seeking a place to center back in, increase their frequencies, gain clarity.

“YOU CONNECT TO NATURE,
CONNECT TO EACH OTHER,
YOU GET TO REMEMBER WHO YOU REALLY ARE”
— for me it was a truly transformational experience,
throughout the week at babakamp,
you connect to nature, connect to each other,
you get to remember who you really are.
through amazing tools such as meditation, dance, sound journeys,
chanting, there is also so much space for creative exploration
and to make this journey yours or what you need it to be.
i can not recommend it enough I hope I can go back this year.


“I ALREADY JOINED TWICE”
— i can highly recommend you to join Yasemins retreat,
I already joined it twice, because I love the community,
the food is amazing, the location is beautiful,
calming, and also supportive at the same.
she is using amazing tools and she also had
- both times - amazing guest teachers.
there is really nothing I could say what is not good about it.
you should definitely join

“THE CHAPTERS ARE ABLE TO MEET YOU WHERE YOU ARE ”
— the most beautiful thing about this journey is that it has a narrative,
it has chapters, but it is able to meet you where you are and
everyone goes through their own journey.
everything also supports your journey: the place,
we are in a beautiful forest, everyone who works there is really lovely.
it was one of my first time
I lived in nature so comfortably.
there was so much trust and peace.

VOICES


“IT IS ALSO FOR PEOPLE LIKE ME, COMING FROM THE CORPORATE WORLD”
— I was going to the retreat being a little stressed out,
I came back with so much positive energy. And its still there.
Its not just a short term experience, it's really long term.
It was a super holistic experience and Yase has the talent
to share the teachings from different cultures and bring it all together.
The Retreat is not only for people who are interested in Yoga, Breath,
Movement, Sound, but also for people like me who work
in the corporate business world.
It was so important to zoom out in order
to get back connected and having more
energy than before I was going to Turkey.

“GOING UP THE MOUNTAIN NOT KNOWING WHAT TO EXPECT, COMING DOWN AD A FAMILY”
— Word's cant explain the experience that I had.
It was very profound. We've got to experience how to
open our voices and open our hearts.
Going up to the mountain, not really knowing
what to expect and coming down the mountain together as a family

“CONNECTION TO MY TURKISH ROOTS”
— The Retreat was enhancing my ability to connect to my Turkish Roots,
especially to my own self.
I was really happy to share this with a lot of people.
I am very happy that Yasemin was the main facilitator, she is rooted in Turkey






—questions

ANSWERED




the spiritual recreation retreat series is open to everyone who is curious about working with tools that are designed to release and gain energy. its for everyone who is not afraid to shift awareness from the external to the more internal processes. the srr is designed to increase our collective frequencies, we have made beautiful experiences in the past.

If you’re intending to come alone - don’t worry, you will connect to the other retreaters really fast! We’ve seen a lot of the past participants forming meaningful friendships. Before the retreat you’ll have a 1:1 call with Yasemin, so we can get to know you and your intention (and find your roomie match). Additionally, we have a Telegram group to stay connected with everyone during and after the experience. And even after the retreat you won’t be alone: there will be an Integration Zoom Call for the whole group.

When we come from developed countries, such as Germany, Austria or Switzerland (where most of you come from) we might come with expectations and standards. Turkey - under the current leadership - wasn’t able to economically develop well. Hence we’ll have huge inflation, the infrastructure is not on the same level, things get delayed, and scopes of already agreed things just randomly change :). The inflation as well as the Corona Crisis has put many people financially at risk, which is why everyone will be grateful if Tourists are coming back to Turkey, to earn a little bit of money. Remember 1 € is almost 16-18 Lira with which you can buy a lot here. We’d like to invite you to not expect “German standards” but rather surrender to this beautiful adventure. I promise: Turkey is one of the most beautiful countries and its humans are just insanely kind and loving.

Check In: 14:00 Check out: 11 am After deciding to join the Retreat we will support you in your travel planing. The best option to arrive by plane would be Dalaman. But this is also the most expensive one. Other options are Izmir, Bodrum or Antalya from where you can take a cheap Bus to Fethiye. According to your arrival time we will organise Buses and Taxis that are trained to drive up the mountain.

union based consciousness means to be able to go beyond the ego and identification and realise that you are part of one greater - the collective consciousness. sound co_creation + feeling into union

Many people experience a little altitude sickness on the first and second day of the retreat. This is due to your body adjusting to the altitude. It can result in: dizziness, vomitting, dhiaria. Don’t worry we’ll be there for you, but please make sure to have your (alternative) medicine available if you know you could suffer from any of this.

As we have 24 acres of land available we are aiming to be 17-22 people in total. There will be enough space for everyone and also time space to be alone and in solidity.

essentials: passport, tickets, credit card phone charger with USB plug, headphones yoga mat (we recommend to bring your own one) reusable water bottle journal and pens (important) an object for our altar (think of something that embodies your creative self) small flashlight (it will be super dark on the mountain) books day pack or bag for activities clothing: try to pack in “layers” as we are going through all the seasons on the mountain warm clothes (it gets really cold in the night!), warm socks, even a beanie white clothes (for our opening and closing ceremony) comfortable yoga wear daily clothes sun protection (sunglasses, hat) swim clothes underwear sandals and closed shoes (hiking) toiletries: sunscreen and mosquito repellent eco-friendly soap and shampoo sanitary items toothbrush and paste your personal (alternative) medical travel supply
