Hello Lamu Island lovers and friends,
This is a personal message from me, Monika Fauth, owner of Banana House and Lamu Yoga.
Many of you have stayed in the past at Banana House, or at Lamu Island.
All of you are lovers of this beautiful island I can call my home.
Over the years I have had personal contact with many of you. What connects us all?
Everyone experiences a connection that is not so easy to find in the outside world.
I’m pretty sure that when you think about your time at Lamu Island, it makes you to smile and beautiful memories come back to your mind.
Many people always ask me how did I end up in Lamu?
How is it to live on a muslim island and being married?
How did I start my business?
How was it to educate my kids, teach yoga and organise the Lamu Yoga Festival?
Exactly these thoughts and memories have inspired me to continue my path of personal growth and connection.
YOU have given me so much over all those years…
Now it is time for me to give back.
Recently I went on an adventure to another island in Greece and reflected on my life which gave me deep insights.
I made a new friend Raf, a podcast maker and narrative coach.
And then something unique happened.
We decided to make series of podcasts.
In this podcast you’ll hear my life & soul story.
A story of self-discovery.
A story of listening and trusting my inner voice.
You can listen (for free!) here on Spotify, or here on Apple Podcasts.
Wait… there is more!
What do you think about taking a deep dive into your story?
Because the podcast is also my invitation to YOU.
An invitation to take a deep dive into your soul story.
This means that each episode will invite you to reflect on your life.
Through a series of questions and exercises we invite you to discover & build your most authentic Soul Story.
For this purpose we created the Soul Story Workbook.
You can download the workbook for FREE on a website that we have created for this: BuildYourSoulStory.com
And then…
There is one more thing!
If you need some help reflecting upon your own soul story, we are here for you.
Raf -the podcast producer and narrative coach- and I decided to also organise a Build Your Soul Story RETREAT.
At our Soul Story Retreat:
You look at what was, where you are now and what lies ahead.
You will learn to apply your inner wisdom to moments of change, so that you can deal with it gently.
You will develop your own ritual to express your transition to the new phase.
We're here to be your companion on this journey of self-discovery.
What fuels your life's vision?
What is your seemingly unattainable dream?
Ready to rock your best life story?
Join us on this unique retreat!
14 - 18 November 2024.
Dear friends, let all off this this be my gift to YOU.
I hope our paths will cross again at Lamu.
Please do reach out to me if you feel you wish to share whatever is on your mind.
Until we meet again.
Warm Love,
Monika Fauth
So good to hear from you, Monika, what a wonderful idea!
I'm reading your e-mail way too late to come to Lamu in November but I surely want to follow your podcasts.
Warm love from Holland,
