Details of this retreat
Welcome to 10 days Vipassana retreat in the heart of Peru’s Sacred Valley of the Incas.
The practice of Vipassana is a journey of self-discovery and presents an opportunity to experience for oneself the truths of ancient teachings.
Dive into sacred method of meditation - pristinely simple in principle and profoundly transformative in application.
Vipassana meditation is a safe practical method for liberation from suffering. Awareness of the active expressions of the nature of the mind allows one to see the roots of distractions.
It has been established that the combined use of perfect methods of meditation creates favorable conditions for recognizing the nature of consciousness.
Vipassana retreat is a valuable opportunity to temporarily let go of all old habits in order to open up to new and unique experiences and get to know the real you.
Our expertly facilitated retreat program combines the buddhist practices of Samatha and Vipassana meditation.
We will start our retreat with Ayahuasca Ceremony led by our Master (participation upon your wish), which will help you to start your practice more effectively. You will be going through the whole self-transformation journey, that will lead you to become stronger, more centered and peaceful.
To support your stay and cultivate more self-awareness and mindfulness, we employ the practice of silence every day, and work with no more than 10 guests at a time to help you to immerse yourself into the meditation and clarify your practical doubts.
We offer a safe, supportive environment for introspection, transformation and connection.
During the retreat, beginners will receive detailed instructions to the practice of Shamatha and Vipassana, get acquainted with the basics of conscious living, and experienced participants will deepen their practice.
The retreat involves following a daily routine that includes a combination of periods of sitting meditation, instructions on meditation, answering questions, rest, sleep and meals.
