A PROFOUND SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCE
Have you noticed the amount of noise surrounding you every day? Whether the external kind from news channels, music, busy streets, etc or the internal noise from daily stressors life work, personal relationships, or responsibilities. There's also the mental noise, that stream of consciousness in your head thinking about past interactions, fears of the future, disagreements with your partner, or even self-negative looping thoughts.
You try to silence all this noise only to find your monkey mind—the “fun friend” that has you spinning out of control when you’re just trying to quiet your thoughts—gets louder.
This Silent Retreat integrates silent contemplation with unique guided meditations, asana, journal prompts, breathwork, and intentional self-care time. Limited to 10 people.
