Learn to listen to the sounds of Life's guidance and you will find that she was always present
Artist : Tomas Sanchez
3 days retreat module
This 3 day retreat is a process of stepping into a research within ourselves. The focus is not on what we do but more about how we do it. It is for those of you who truly want to step into the waters of self reflection and create a practice that can help align yourself to your potential.
Before signing up for this retreat, you will receive a questionnaire that can help us both understand your readiness to participate in this process. The questionnaire is not for any kind of selection process but for you to know if you are ready to choose your true self. If you feel that you are ready, we trust that you are.

about the facilitator
Sharanya Rao
From childhood, meditative practices and self-reflection have been my go-to during difficult times. As a professional dancer, movement has been my way to find inner stillness, clarity, and guidance.
Living in Auroville deepened this journey, exposing me to a life centered on inner work and healing alongside others. Over the years, I’ve gained insight into practices that align the inner self, and I have found that it gives me immense joy and touches me deeply to witness people transform themselves and their reality through inner work.
Now, I’m here to pursue what moves me, hoping it brings what the world needs.
