Visionary Darkness

5 Day Retreat

Would you like to relax deeply...
Into the womb of darkness
And go on a journey of discovery...
To be born again in light?

Unique Retreat

In this special retreat you spend most of the time in complete darkness. Even a short period of darkness, as during a meditation, or in a (blindfolded) Trance Movement™, can be very beneficial.

When you spend more time in darkness, the chatter in your head will settle down. The mind clears up, and room for profound contact with your essence, and the source of life and creativity, is created.

A Healing Journey

Once you allow yourself to really slow down, and drop from doing or trying into being, you open yourself up for a new vision: a new perspective on you, and your life… not forged by the pain of the past, but born from your authentic essence, and purpose.

TO ENVISION A NEW LIFE!

In Darkness we become Visionaries

Our fixation on the light often blinds us. Yet everything is born from the cradle of darkness.

Darkness has always played an important role in meditation and healing work.

When the mind can safely release the security of the visible world, invisible landscapes of creative inspiration become visible.

5 Days of Darkness

We provide a secure space, in which you can slowly surrender to your inner journey.

Moments of silence, and time and space for yourself, are interspersed with group activities.

We move, meditate, make musical journeys, stimulate the senses, and are creative in different ways. You will discover new ways of perception, and make deep contact with your life force, your essence, to be reborn out of the womb of darkness, into the light at the end of the retreat.
