“If I had time alone, I’m not sure if I know how to truly be with myself.”

Our minds are often filled with voices from the outside world—through words, conversations, and constant noise—that quietly overwhelm our lives. Over time, when faced with moments of stillness, we may feel uneasy, forgetting how to connect and converse with ourselves.

This year’s final Holiday long weekend, we invite you to gather in a serene mountain valley surrounded by lush greenery, to practice the art of being with yourself alongside like-minded companions. Let go of worries, calm your thoughts, and start with gentle body and mind stretches. Gradually release every joint and muscle, allowing yourself to be enveloped by the rustling of mountain breezes through the trees, guiding you into deep meditation where peace and calm fill every part of your being.

In silent eye-gazing, we set words aside, replaced by subtle expressions and genuine glances, discovering an unspoken connection of understanding and support. As we navigate the flow of emotions, we gently unravel from within and reconnect with our inner selves. Through guided practices, we immerse in a rhythm of harmony that balances the body and mind.

These three days of silence are not just about stepping away from the noise but about finding a path inward. It’s a journey to process thoughts, center your spirit, and cultivate a quiet strength that allows you to live in harmony with everything around you.

 

 

What To Expect

Wear your most comfortable clothes and bring environmentally friendly tableware.

Put down your phones and communicate with the world attentively. 

Stay weird and stay unique. 

 
 
 

Silent Artistic Expression: Gina

In the realm of sound, we will slowly listen to the natural rhythms of our bodies. Through chanting, we will awaken our ears and throats, loosening the constraints within and bringing awareness back to the present moment.

“Follow your heart and you’ll realize that everything is connected.”

Gina has received her yoga qualification in places including Taiwan, Thailand and Nepal.

In her experience, she has felt unity with the universe by yoga, meditation, chanting and self observation and has also found a connection with her inner self that she has never felt before as a kid.

Gina believes that listening closely to your heart, and observing every movement can help you gain a better understanding of yourself.
