INTENTION : This retreat is intended to be a gentle introduction to the practice of silence and meditation and the profound benefits they can bring to your life.

This is not a vipassana retreat.

This space is an opportunity for you to align to a more peaceful and balanced version of you.

Silence can evoke the ineffable wonder of life

This retreat is for someone who:

• needs a break and some time away to reset
• seeks to go a little deeper into a meditation practice
• needs to reduce stimulation/ dopamine detox
• seeks creative inspiration
• open to trying a new experience
