Sun and Moon Retreats

WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT

Most retreats focus on relaxation.

This retreat is about training the mind.

Rooted in the classical 8-limbed path of yoga
Structured progression into silence
Minimal external stimulation
Emphasis on direct experience, not theory
Gentle but disciplined daily rhythm

You won’t be asked to believe anything.

Only to observe, sit, breathe, and go inward.

FAQ

Is the retreat silent the whole time?

Noble silence begins on Day 1 and continues until the closing ceremony on Day 5.

Can beginners join?

Yes. Beginners are welcome. No advanced meditation or yoga experience is required.

Is there yoga / asana?

Yes, but the movement is minimal and used to support stillness, posture, breath, and meditation.

Can I use my phone?

Phones are strongly discouraged during the retreat.

They may be stored safely so you can fully enter the experience. If you need to keep your phone for an important reason, it must remain in your room and away from all practices, meals, and group spaces.

What should I bring?

Comfortable clothes, a journal, a pen, light layers, and anything you need for rest and personal care.

Do I need to be spiritual or religious?

No.

You do not need to follow any belief system. The retreat is based on direct experience: sitting, breathing, observing, and returning gently to stillness.

Is this suitable if I’m going through a difficult time?

This retreat can be supportive, but it is not a replacement for medical, psychological, or therapeutic care.

If you are experiencing serious mental health difficulties, recent trauma, or emotional instability, please seek professional advice before attending.
