Disconnect Reconnect Retreat

The retreat is a space for you to disconnect from the external noise and distractions and reconnect with your inner self, cultivating a harmonious routine that nurtures your mind, body, and soul. At the heart of this retreat is the practice of meditation, a powerful tool for calming the mind and cultivating inner peace. Meditation invites us to observe our thoughts and emotions without judgment, creating space for clarity and self-awareness.

Through daily group sessions, you'll learn how to quiet your mind, find inner peace, and harness the power of presence. Engage in gentle yoga, taichi and gigong classes, immerse yourself in nature through guided hikes, and feel the grounding energy of the earth beneath your feet and enjoy nutritious and delicious meals that nourish your body from the inside out, supporting your journey of self-discovery.

But our retreat is more than just meditation; it's a holistic experience that aims to empower you to create a balanced routine that nourishes every aspect of your being. We believe that self-care extends beyond the meditation cushion, which is why we offer a diverse range of activities designed to promote physical well-being and emotional stability.

By prioritizing this time for self-reflection and mindfulness, you embark on a path of self-discovery, creating a deeper connection with your authentic self and a more balanced and fulfilling life. Our aim is to provide you with the tools and practices to continue your journey even after you leave. We encourage you to integrate the routines and techniques you learn during your stay into your daily life, fostering a lasting sense of well-being and fulfillment.
