About this Retreat

Your Guides

Details of this retreat

From the moment you arrive, you are welcomed not as a guest but as a soul ready to be seen and heard. Your journey begins with a one-on-one consultation, during which we understand your body’s story, the stress it carries, the trauma it holds, and the healing it seeks.

Each day unfolds gently. The therapies you’ll experience are designed with a deep understanding of both science and soul. You’ll be immersed in breathwork, movement therapy, aquatic healing, somatic release, sound therapy, mud detox, soul alignment, inner child work, sacred sharing circles, journaling, and silent reflection under the stars.

Every process is intentional, every ritual is sacred.

You’ll float in healing waters, rest on river islands, release emotional baggage through art and sound, and reconnect with your inner child through guided therapy sessions.

Every therapy is designed with medical expertise and ancient wisdom, performed in nature’s embrace - sand, river, mud, fire, and sky.

This journey is not just about physical release — it’s about unwinding long-held emotional patterns, liberating yourself from subconscious blocks, and rewriting your inner narrative from a place of wholeness.

But the real transformation happens in the spaces between:

In the stillness after a release.
In the breath where you finally feel safe.
In the silence where you meet yourself again.
This is not a surface-level escape. It’s a deep dive into your true self.

More Than a Retreat - A Lifelong Relationship

Healing doesn’t end here. After the retreat, I stay connected with you through personalized physical or virtual therapy sessions. You can continue your journey with us, or even request a custom retreat designed just for you.

You are not a number here. You are a soul deserving of presence, care, and a journey that supports your whole being.

With BodhiSankhāra, we are not just offering you a retreat.

We offer a transformational relationship - a journey towards the most liberated, peaceful, and aligned version of yourself.

This is our promise: You will never walk this path alone.
