The First Breath of the night
Once a month, on Thursday from 4 p.m., the Cité awakens in whispers. Music gently settles in, steam glows with light, and flavors align with the rhythm of the ambiance. The Souffle des Sons evening is an invitation to slow down, to fully feel the moment, to live an experience where gastronomy, rituals, and musical creation meet to awaken the senses and soothe the spirit.
It’s a timeless pause, a deep breath in the bustle of everyday life, where every detail is designed to invite release, self-awareness, and gentle inner resonance.
Neerav’s Musical Breath
DJ Neerav is the breath that sets the rhythm of the evening. For over 25 years, he has explored the sonic textures of the world, blending World Fusion and Ethno-Ambient to create vibrant, enveloping atmospheres.
Inspired by spiritual rituals from Asia and full moon celebrations, his music becomes a space of release, an energy that flows through body and mind, inviting surrender, presence, and inner awakening.
Born in the Caribbean and raised in Canada, he was immersed in the rhythms of calypso and reggae before diving into the global soundscape. His first set, played on a beach in Thailand, marked the beginning of a musical journey guided by intuition and a search for meaning. Known for his performances at international festivals such as Shambhala, Earth Dance, and Universo Paralello, Neerav creates sonic spaces where the body can relax and the spirit can open.
Each note becomes a space of release, each rhythm a deep breath. During the Souffle des Sons evening, his sets accompany the thermal experience, transforming each immersion into an inner journey.
The Warm Breath of the Aufguss
At the heart of the evening, black light Aufguss rituals offer a unique immersion. Between 4 p.m. and 8 p.m., steam comes alive with light, aromas diffuse through the air, and each movement of the Aufguss master becomes an enveloping choreography. Inspired by Nordic traditions, these multisensory rituals amplify the benefits of the sauna while awakening the senses. Under the play of lights, the heat becomes enveloping, almost alive,and each breath of steam carries the body toward a state of deep relaxation.
It’s a physical and emotional experience, where one is carried by the elements.
The Breath of Flavors
Gourmet pleasures come to life at the very start of the evening.
Fresh oysters reveal their briny brilliance from the depths of the sea. A signature cocktail, carefully crafted, accompanies the moment with finesse, while an enhanced menu inspired by the day’s arrivals highlights local products.
Each bite is designed to enrich the experience, in perfect harmony with the enveloping ambiance of the thermal Cité.
Here, gastronomy becomes an extension of the ritual—a celebration of taste and season.
At Förena, each breath becomes an offering to body and spirit. The Souffle des Sons evening embodies this philosophy: a way of life where every detail invites openness to the experience, surrender to the elements, and a deep, gentle transformation through the thermal Cité.
