Details of this retreat
What if your greatest challenges are never meant to break you, but to awaken you?
This is not a metaphor. Not as a vague spiritual idea. But as a living, breathing reality.
Just a couple of years ago, I found myself in one of the most humbling situations of my life. After moving to Denmark to support my elderly parents—who had escaped the war in Ukraine and arrived shell-shocked and frail—I discovered that my visa left me with no legal means to earn income. Suddenly, I was in one of the most expensive countries in the world, burning through what little savings I had left.
I had a few students in Denmark, but no business contacts... no clue about the Danish language... and no way to do the work I was so good at.
And yet… something within me opened and I started tapping into new resources I didn't even remember I had: Resilience!
In the midst of this struggle for survival, I unearthed a deeper truth: true resilience isn't something you talk about, but something you embody.
My old apprentice Ane partnered up with me in creating a startup called Resilience Centre. To launch it with a bang, we took upon ourselves a monumental task of organizing the 2025 World Resilience Summit utilizing my years of experience of organizing numerous Summits of Qigong Masters and other online events.
Not only did this summit bring about some well-needed cash flow, but more importantly, it build the foundation of our online community of like-minded people interested in becoming more resilient as well as bringing more resilience into their businesses and communities.
That enlightening event gave birth to my Embodied Resilience course and inspired the Empowerment in Paradise retreat. Not to escape challenges, but to transmute them into clarity, wisdom, and personal power.
You’re invited to join us on the breathtaking island of Tenerife for a deeply immersive experience from October 12 thru 18, 2025, .
Here’s what you won’t find there:
- No contrived biohacking;
- No artificial positive thinking;
- No spiritual bypassing.
What you’ll find instead:
- Radical clarity about your life’s direction;
- Powerful energetic practices you can actually use daily;
- Realignment in your health, your relationships, and your purpose;
- A group of conscious beings who see you and inspire you to rise.
Imagine waking up each morning to the ocean breeze and feeling that… "something has shifted." You’re clearer, stronger, lighter.
Because you’ve remembered who you are — and reclaimed what you came here to do.
If you’ve been wondering:
“How do I move through this next phase of my life with more clarity and power?”
“How do I stop spinning my wheels and actually align with my authentic values?”
“Where can I find others who live at this level of depth and truth?”
Then this retreat was created for you.
You’ll learn to transform stress, uncertainty, and emotional heaviness into resilience, commitment, and empowered momentum — not just in your mind, but in your body.
You’ll be guided through practices rooted in Qi Dao, Dream Yoga, and Tantric embodiment, all tailored to help you feel and live in alignment with your deeper truth.
You’ll be supported by a circle that sees you not as broken, but as becoming.
And you’ll leave with something most people spend their lives chasing: a real sense of direction.
This is not just a retreat. It’s a reset.
A crucial pause in paradise — to rewire your nervous system, recharge your spirit, and return to your life not as the same person who left… but as the version of you that’s been waiting to manifest.
Join me on the Canary Island of Tenerife in October to empower the next leg of your life journey.
