For many oriental disciplines, Nabhi, the navel point, is a fundamental energy center for the harmony of the body and psyche.
Centre of fire and action, it contains the strength and the rhythm needed to keep up and constantly sustain the blooming of the heart, where the potential human unfolds and expresses itself through consciousness and conscious choices.
Welcomed by an intensely alive and present nature, we found an equally significant nucleus here, in the Apennines mountains between Bologna and Florence, immersed in an uncontaminated and peaceful area.
We called this place Centro della Terra: a place dedicated to mother Earth, at service of the possible human and of the awareness of all beings.
It is here that we decided to realize our project of knowledge, creativity and conscious life style.
Our Centre is suitable for practicing the disciplines that most benefit from a quite, clean environment.
Here we organize courses and host people who wish to spend some days in the woods to practice and to listen to the wisdom of nature, getting away from the chaos of the cities to get closer to their true self.
