A Launch Made in Heaven

Mindfulness & Healing Immersion in Nature

Step away from the hustle and open to the soothing rhythms of The Nature Pill @ Patch.
Rooted in 2,600 years of mindfulness traditions (vipassana), this retreat blends ancient wisdom, neuroscience, and nature to help you reset and reconnect.

Mindfulness in nature has been shown by the NIH to reduce anxiety and increase calm. Together, we’ll explore how earth-based awareness reconnects us to the sensory joys of birdsong, breeze, chimes, and prayer — cultivating presence and inner peace.
