Natural High Festival in Ruigoord: love to yourself

On Thursday, May 14 on Ascension Day, the free artist village of Ruigoord will transform into a place where music, consciousness and connection come together during the Natural High Festival. In and around the iconic church, a day of inspiring workshops, ceremonies and live performances unfolds, focused on personal growth and collective harmony.

Those who know Ruigoord know that this place has been a breeding ground for creativity and free expression for decades. During Natural High Festival, that energy takes on an extra dimension. The program is carefully curated around themes of self-development, love and unity - concepts that resonate more and more in a world searching for balance.

Visitors can participate in yoga sessions accompanied by live music, where breathing, movement and sound merge into a meditative experience. In addition, cocoa ceremonies offer a moment of introspection and connection, while various workshops provide depth to personal and spiritual growth. Musically, the festival is supported by, among others, the Dragonfly Ecstatic Dance band, whose rhythmic and rousing sets ensure a dance floor where expression and freedom take center stage.

What sets this festival apart is its emphasis on inner work. The idea that lasting peace begins with the individual is the common thread running through the program. By opening the heart and living consciously, space is created for higher consciousness - a thought that fits seamlessly with the philosophy of Ruigoord itself.

“Those who open their hearts discover that connection is not something you seek, but what you are.”

In addition to music and ceremonies, there is a market and healing field where visitors can learn about alternative therapies, crafts and spiritual guidance. The festival invites not only to consume, but above all to experience and connect.

As such, Natural High Festival is more than an event; it is an invitation to stand still, feel and grow - together with others who share the same quest.
