The dark retreat is an ancient practice where participants stay in absolute darkness for several days to calm their nervous systems, heal trauma, trigger creativity, and bring wholeness. This powerful experience involves no drugs, intense physical work, or strict diet, just staying in a comfortable room with no light. It's an antidote to our over-lit, fast-paced lives. Participants can expect to restore their senses, find balance, and undergo a transformative experience. The retreat is led by experienced facilitators, including Andrew Holecek, a Tibetan Buddhist-trained lama and scholar-practitioner. The practice has been used for millennia by cultures such as the ancient Greeks, Egyptians, and Tibetan Buddhist lamas.
