NAIWENI

Being Hushahu’s daughter, Nãiwẽni Yawanawá was born into the world of her mother’s spirituality, accompanying her mother in her retreats and ceremonies from since she was a baby. Beside her mother in this way she developed the same depth of expression in her voice and connection to the spiritual work. Still very young, she has already undertaken some spiritual retreats with her mother over the last years and is now growing very quickly as she travels with Hushahu and accompanies her work. Nãi has a beautiful voice and already composed several of her own interpretations of the traditional songs. Last year she released her first EP with her mother - Nãi Ãūnua Rẽwẽ and every year her inspiration and talent grows more.

“The food was divine! I’m not a vegetarian and will say the meat was not missed while here. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay…. The staff was warm and courteous. Space very conducive for retreat. Great common spaces for community and plenty of space for solitude. Will return again.”

“I spent the week in a yoga and meditation retreat. What a beautiful place! High in the Catskills mountains, where you can see the stars at night, and the trees are as high as the sky. The accommodations aren’t luxury, but they were perfect. Everybody is so kind and nice. We got to practice different kinds of yoga, and went to a couple of hikes. I felt happy and relaxed. They also have an amazing spa. How have I never heard of this place before? Now I can not wait to go again!”

“Your facilities and location are outstanding for retreats, and the staff are incredibly courteous and helpful. Being in the mountains, wandering along the streams and paths and disconnecting from the business of our daily lives was wonderful. Thank you for creating such a welcoming and warm environment.”
