There are times when one chapter closes and the next has not yet revealed itself. This retreat invites you into that sacred threshold.
Held at the winter solstice, the deepest point of darkness and the quiet turning toward light, it offers space to step away from constant noise and enter a more spacious inner landscape.
It is an invitation to unplug not only from the outer world, but also from the inner commentary that keeps you busy, distracted, and disconnected.
What begins as a pause gradually becomes a crossing: from doing into being, from control into trust.
As you disconnect, you may first meet the restless mind—the planning, the replaying, the subtle tension of trying to hold everything together. This is where the deeper work starts. Through meditation, conscious movement, and contemplative practices, you will learn how to release not only external stimulation, but also the inner voice that shapes and distorts your experience. In the openness that follows, a quieter presence becomes available—steady, clear, compassionate, and fully alive.
Change itself is not the challenge. It is our resistance to change that creates suffering.
This retreat is a living laboratory for meeting transition with awareness, grace, and courage. With periods of silence, nervous system reset, immersion in nature, and genuine human connection, you will explore impermanence, soften your attachment to identity, and reconnect with the intelligence of the body and heart. You will discover how to remain present in uncertainty without collapsing, and how to move with life as it unfolds.
You will leave with more than rest. You will leave with a renewed relationship to change itself. With practical tools to regulate your system, establish healthy boundaries with technology, and return to presence amid life’s demands, you step back across the threshold clearer, steadier, and more open to possibility. This is not an escape from life. It is training in how to live it with grace.
