What is Vipassana?

3 Day Silent Retreat

Vipassana is an ancient meditation technique that develops deep self-awareness through observing breath and bodily sensations. It helps cultivate mental clarity, calmness, and balance. Practicing silence allows you to disconnect from the outside world and focus on your inner experience.

This retreat offers a complete silent experience, giving you the opportunity to immerse yourself in meditation, disconnect from the outside world, and cultivate inner peace and harmony.

Through mindful movement, conscious breathing, and tranquility, you will gently reconnect with your natural rhythm. Guided practices, nourishing food, and peaceful surroundings will promote a deep sense of relaxation, clarity, and renewal.
