As the light reaches its turning point and the year prepares to shift, we gather for a two-day immersion designed to reconnect you with your body, your breath, and your natural aliveness.
The winter solstice is a doorway:
A moment to slow down, to feel, to shed what has grown heavy, and to awaken the inner spark for the year ahead. This retreat offers a grounded yet playful container to explore yourself and others with honesty, curiosity, and depth.
🌬 What to Expect
Across the two days, you’ll be invited into a rich blend of practices, each supporting you to soften, open, and reconnect:
• Breathwork (Wim Hof–style):
Activate your energy, expand your capacity, and drop into deep presence.
• Primal Play / Playfight:
Safe, embodied, instinctive play that reconnects you with spontaneity and healthy power.
• Empathic Communication Group Training (in the tradition of Marshall Rosenberg):
Learn tools for honest expression, deep listening, and compassionate communication.
• Movement Research & Free Movement:
Explore your body’s wisdom through guided explorations and open movement space.
• Meditation & Integration Moments:
Quiet, anchoring practices to settle what you discover.
• Qi Gong:
Gentle yet powerful grounding practices for centering and flow.
• Cacao Ceremony:
A warm, heart-opening ritual to support connection, intention-setting, and presence. Shared in a gentle ceremonial space designed to invite clarity, emotional openness, and communal warmth.
• Authentic Relating Exercises:
We’ll engage in relational games and formats to build trust and genuine connection.
• Listening Circles:
Occasional satsang gatherings will open a calm, honest space for genuine questions and profound answers — an opportunity to inquire, reflect, and receive insight from the collective field.
• Singing:
Astha will bring her guitar and invite us to tune into the sound of the heart. Join in singing, let your body move with the melodies, or simply lie down, surrender your weight to the floor and allow yourself to be carried by the soothing vibrations of music. A moment to unwind, reconnect and rest in the resonance of sound.
And of course, snack breaks and a longer lunch break on Day 2 to rest, digest, and connect informally.

🌗 Schedule Overview

🌑 ▸ Day 1 — Saturday * Dec 19 | 15:00 – 21:00
An afternoon & evening immersion to drop into the body, warm up the group field, and mark the solstice together — including meditation, and recalibrate through Chi-Kung and body-based awareness.
After 19:00, the evening continues with a mix of inner work — stillness and listening circles — if time allows it we will continue with some primal play, a safe and playful way to explore presence, energy, and connection.

🌅 ▸ Day 2 — Sunday (12:oo – 2o:3o)
A full day of practice, exploration, nourishment, and integration.
🌞 Who This Is For
• Anyone craving embodied connection and spaciousness
• Movers, meditators, breath explorers
• People wishing to cultivate presence, playfulness, and authentic expression
• Both beginners and experienced practitioners are welcome
🌱 Why During the Solstice?
The solstice invites introspection. It naturally supports:
• letting go of the old
• returning to your inner center
• reawakening energy after the year’s longest night
• setting clear intentions for the coming cycle
This retreat is crafted to mirror that rhythm: depth, stillness, play, clarity.
