DEEP TIME - BEINGNESS RETREATS

Time is one of the most profound dimensions of human experience - a concept which humans have researched extensively through philosophy, psychology, physics, the arts and - of course - Yoga.

The commonly held belief of “not having enough time” however, causes us much stress, dissatisfaction and disease. We long for time to rest, time to enjoy simple pleasures, time to be with our loved ones or time to engage in our hearts´ work.

On a global level, with many beloved species on the brink of extinction, highly polarised societies, exponential ecological collapse and powerful systems running blindly, we may also constantly feel the pressure that “time is running out”.

On this precipice, it feels paradoxically urgent to transcend into deep states of timelessness, bliss, love, connection and inclusivity, inspiring us to live the joy, peace and beauty we so long for.

In my series of Deep Time Retreats, we will dive into this subject matter together, sharing practices based in Yoga, art and nature and explore our very own ideas and attitudes in an experiential manner.

DEEP TIME Peace (winter): 1.02- 21.2, 2025 - South India
Cultivating “Eternal Space”: Tiruvanamalai, Mysuru and Coorg

This part of the Deep Time Retreat series is dedicated to cultivating inner stillness, amidst the chaos and colour only India can provide! Rejuvenating massage therapies and delicious food complement our dedicated yogic morning practices. Many excursions to powerful ancient sites of worship and practice are included, along with ample time to sit there in quiet contemplation, and soak in the transformative energies.

A Zen concept of time states that only in “being time”, we can know eternity and pass through the threshold of time that lies deep in every moment.

DEEP TIME Awakening: spring 2025, Tuscany
In this magical Easter retreat, we will dedicate time to resetting and nurturing our nervous systems with the power of yoga, art and nature based practices. We will be spoilt by fresh and organic mediterranean cuisine prepared on site and the beauty of the gentle rolling hills of Tuscany laced by the Ligurian Sea.

From this joyful and nourished state, we will warm up and water our little seeds of inspiration we discover in ourselves, wanting to unfreeze after a long winter, and help them to germinate into the projects and experiences we wish to bring in for the next year!

DEEP TIME Earth: autumn 2025- Portugal

“Listening Deeply to ourselves, listening deeply to earth.”

This part of the Deep Time retreat series allows us to engage in quiet, but intensive Yoga practices, including breath, movement, sound and energy work. The intention is to slow down, connect deeply with our hidden resources, learn to savour the moment and develop the ability to share and apply our own timeless knowledge. Each day is dedicated to researching one element in the wild and within us, connecting us more profoundly and deeply to our common interspecies home.

In the words of Joanna Macy: “What people most need to hear is inside them.”
