About this Retreat

Details of this retreat

Bone, Breath, & Beyond is an invitation to the golden coastline of tropical India for five days of breathing back to life the primal, organic intelligence of your being.

Nature knows no borders. Her rivers carve through mountains; Her winds cross every sea; Her roots pierce through rock. She is infinite, without restraint, roaming freely across this planet with ever-expanding vitality.

Meanwhile, the modern human, springing from the same wild source, has been pressed into habits, trained toward repetition, dulled by digital sedation, confined by limiting beliefs, and often carries unhealed pain that interrupts the necessary movement of internal waters and winds.

This 5-day retreat is an open terrain to stretch, crawl, coil, perch, prowl, howl, thump, dig, roll, croak, sing, roar the body back into natural rhythms — rediscovering what it is to be a vessel of Nature rather than apart from the Living Wild.

Each day is filled with practices to anchor the body back into Nature’s resonance: fire at sunrise, breath like waves, movements shaped across indigenous, Eastern, and spiritual streams.

Mornings open with breath and movement sessions inspired by yoga, martial arts, and conscious breathwork.

Afternoons unfold with workshops that blend concentration practices to sharpen the senses, somatic games to expand perception, and group energy experiments drawn from shamanic traditions, Buddha’s teachings, and modern performance arts. These practices fine-tune the high qualities of equanimity and equilibrium — trainings to stay centered even amidst the unpredictable.

Evenings close in ceremony: mantra chanting, visualization healings, and subtle energy meditations that quiet the mind and open the beyond.

Playful, somatic, ecological, and scientifically mystical — this retreat is not simply about being in Nature, but remembering yourself as Nature.
