Truth · Beauty & Wonder: An Initiation into Radical Presence - 6 day Italy Retreat - Lake Orta

At the heart of every authentic seeker lies a quiet fire longing to live in truth, to awaken to beauty, and to stand in wonder before the great mystery of existence.

For five potent days, we will immerse in a living field of wisdom teachings, active and stillness meditations, creativity, nature, self-inquiry, community and embodied movement practices — consciously crafted to strip away the false, awaken the real, and leave you standing in the luminous clarity of your own presence.

Truth — The Sword That Cuts Illusion
The fierce clarity of what IS — beyond belief and your stories. Through meditation, penetrating self-inquiry, and sharpening your witnessing skills, we’ll step beyond roles and defenses. When the inner chatter falls away, the mind quiets and a deeper intelligence begins to move. Intelligence not rooted in knowledge, facts or what you have learned but a more awake, more wild, more spontaneous, more insightful wisdom intelligence rooted in beingness.

Beauty — The Flower That Opens When You Are Present
Not as decoration or possession, but as a living pulse. Through conscious movement, creative expression, celebration, and heartful connection, beauty becomes your very perception. No longer bound by judgment or comparison, an ever-present fragrance — something you embody, a radiance woven through every gesture, glance, and breath.

Wonder — The Childlike Gaze That Sees All Anew
That innocent, ever-renewing awe at simply being alive — the amazement that the sky is blue, the universe is breathing you, and that anything exists at all. This is the Mystery of life. When truth is embraced and beauty lived, wonder floods the heart without effort. Together, we’ll enter the joy of existence itself.

Food for thought:
What would happen if you stopped trying to fix yourself
and simply met yourself?
If beauty isn’t something you strive to possess, what would it mean to live as beauty itself?
When was the last time you let wonder stop you in your tracks?
This retreat is less about learning something new and more about remembering what’s already here when you have dared to be fully yourself — no masks, no compromise, standing tall in your truth, beauty, and wonder.
