Deep within the womb of the mountain, we will explore meditation to connect with Soma— the profound regeneration of the nervous system. Open to all, this retreat is a call to those seeking deep healing, renewal, and inner wisdom.
Through Kundalini Yoga, meditation, sacred rituals, and Satsangh, we will embark on a powerful journey of transformation and rebirth. As we surrender to the darkness and silence of the mountain’s womb, we will rediscover the ancient wisdom held within our bodies.
The following prices include the retreat fee, 4 nights of accommodation, and vegetarian meals. Transportation costs are not included.
