The retreat will include yoga and pranayama each morning that’s suitable for all levels of experience.

Vinyasa Hatha and YoQi, which is a combination of Yoga and Qi Gong. There will be Pranayama (breath control techniques) and Kriya Yoga, to stimulate the internal energy system and produce non-dual states.

There will be noble silence in the morning until 12pm. Conversation will be allowed thereafter during meal times in the dining hall – get to know your fellow meditators, share stories and form bonds. We allow conversation for the context of non-dual awareness and integration while on retreat.

Outside of meal times, we remain in silence.

For those who wish to remain in silence for some / all of the retreat, including meal times, silent badges will be provided to inform other guests.

We predominantly teach Buddhist practices of across the main schools, including Insight (Vipassana), Dzogchen and Mahamudra, Loving-kindness (Metta) and Zen meditation. We also teach secular meditations and often use non-dual terminology.

Our retreats include 6+ hours of meditation each day, so it;’s recommended to have some experience before-hand, even if that’s watching the breath for 5-10 minutes each day.

We will not be taking phones, so you are free to do as you wish. Although the recommendation is to limit interaction so you can have the space to switch off and tune in.

You can request Jason’s number and pass this to family and friends if you wish.

It’s recommended that you don’t

If you would like to, yes

Sitting cross legged; we’ll show you various ways to sit on the floor, or you can sit in a chair

The retreats are intensive, they are designed that way. But for those who want to sit deeply, there will be ample time. For those who prefer a gentler rhythm, there's room to move at your own pace, walk in nature, read and write – it’s really up to you.
