Details of this retreat
Mastery of Awareness is a 7-day immersion in the Pirin Mountains designed to help you recalibrate perception, reclaim energy, and return to what’s real. This is not a spa week or mindset hack—it’s grounded practice in a clear field, guided by nature, stillness, and presence. Dates: 22–29 May 2026 in Bansko, Bulgaria.
Throughout the week you’ll work with energy movements, recapitulation & self-investigation, dreamwork (awake and in rest), silent walks, and simple nature rituals. There will be group sharings, individual tasks, and surprise transmissions tailored to those who attend. Optional Human Design elements (mini readings or group workshops) are also available for anyone wishing to explore their energetic blueprint.
Why here? The Pirin Mountains aren’t just a backdrop—they’re an ally. The land’s quiet power and nearby mineral waters support deep unwinding and restoration, allowing what’s essential to rise to the surface. Come as you are; leave clearer, lighter, and equipped with practices to carry into daily life.
Your base is a peaceful spa apart-hotel at the foot of the mountains—simple, comfortable, and close to nature—offering space to practice, integrate, and rest between sessions.
Led by Ena & Gammadian, long-time practitioners and facilitators rooted in energy work, ancient lineages, and esoteric traditions, this retreat is a co-creation. We won’t hand you answers—we’ll hold a clean field where your own knowing can speak louder.
