Step away from your day-to-day life and immerse yourself in a weekend of meditation and healing.
Over the course of this weekend retreat, you'll be introduced to ancient techniques through an approach steeped in modern day science. You'll be reminded that your true self is independent of suffering, and knowing this is your ticket to freedom.
The insights you gain will go far beyond the time we all spend together! You'll be able to take what you learn in the program and practice it in your daily life to further uncover the many layers covering your true self.
The retreat program includes:
Daily meditation sessions
Daily talks that make the topic of knowing the self accessible, enjoyable and inspiring
Practical techniques you can take with you into your daily life
Several somatic tools and interventions, including EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing)
An immersive sound bath with chimes & crystal bowls
Time for Q and A
Held just 30 minutes southwest of Boston at the beautiful MIT Endicott House, the retreat begins on Friday evening and ends on Sunday afternoon. You’re welcome to stay overnight on Friday and Saturday, or go home after dinner, whichever works best for your family obligations and your budget.
Either way, this retreat will enable you to rediscover your true self, the vibrant, authentic, and limitless self - the abundant source of strength, clarity, creativity, peace, and bliss inside of you. It will be an exploration of remembering who you are, the solution to all suffering.
The retreat will be led by WITHIN teacher Sonal Kalra, who has designed the entire experience. Long-time WITHIN student Danielle Goldberg will be supporting you and Sonal, so that the entire group can be immersed in the experience.
If you are looking to live a happier, empowered, and fulfilling life, this retreat is for you.
Registration Opens April 30th!
