If you’re new to this approach, we warmly invite you to watch this 7-minute story.
It gives a simple, gentle introduction to the meditation philosophy we’ll explore together.
This retreat is especially suitable for you if:
you’re seeking inner growth or deeper meaning
you’re navigating stress, anxiety, or emotional heaviness
you love self-awareness, spirituality, or philosophy
you sense a higher level of consciousness and want to explore it
you’re ready for a shift — subtle or profound
You don’t need any prior meditation experience.
To support a calm and transformative atmosphere, we suggest a simple lifestyle during the retreat:
vegetarian meals
no alcohol, smoking, or recreational drugs
minimal phone/social media use
no TV
celibacy during the retreat
This creates the clarity and inner stillness needed for the deeper work.
If you can begin easing into this lifestyle a little before the retreat, it often helps you get even more from the experience.
