“Silence is the greatest healer and meditation is an inner teacher. When we discover who we are beneath the non-stop chatter of the mind and our conditioning from society, we as humanity will move to the next stage of evolution. The best expression of love for oneself is the beginning of your spiritual path, and this meditation journey offers that and so much more.”

The program is developed in collaboration with Ryan Grimes 

Bespoke Program

Keeping mauna is a way to open ourselves to sacredness.

Within this blissful container of stillness and connection, presence is restored and the whispers of inner wisdom return.

With no need to interact and perform, energy returns to the soul, and slowly unclouded questions arise from the quietude of a once busy mental field.

Mauna, or Noble Silence offers a medicine for modern humanity to stay grounded and awakened; to keep one’s mind purified and open to creative downloads.

Seekers Testimonials

Thank you for creating this space in Hong Kong. It is very much needed. This experience was particularly impactful. I found such a deep rest during this time. It was eye-opening how burnout I was before the retreat. This retreat became a vehicle for me to manage my stress and anxiety.

Nila

Breakthrough experience, thank you so much for creating this space in Hong Kong. The silent aspect was great. I would call it mindful renewal. Outstanding in all dimensions.

Hatem

The retreat was more than I ever expected from Hong Kong, which isn’t known for retreats immersed in nature. Every day was inspiring and peaceful. The house and common spaces were beautifully designed, the plant-based menu inspired me to give up meat after the retreat. The meditation, breathing work, and yoga were calming and centring. The land and farm surrounding us are beautiful. I was very impressed!

Meredith

Silence became a teacher. It´s impressive how much the mind can quiet in only 3 days. It felt like a mental detox combined with a body recharging. Very special moment in time for me. The teacher is superb, I felt guided and taken care of.
