“It is such a gift to be released from the tether of technology, aka "surrendering my phone', to rediscover the joy of unstructured experience, living in the moment. For me everything slowed down and the space created by the silence allowed for real self reflection. I found time to relate to my true self, appreciate nature's beauty and gently reminded how simple and uncomplicated life is.This retreat was totally worth the trip from Canada."
David C.
“This is my second silent retreat at Seventh Chakra and i would absolutely recommend it. The design of the retreat is so helpful for someone who is new to Vipassana. The morning ambrosial practice is my favourite part of the day. The wisdom teachings given by Peter and Priya are absolute gems. The food is absolutely nourishing and delicious and the love and devotion in preparing the meals is palpable.The property has so many beautiful areas to sit, walk and meditate. The Meditation Temple is breathtaking. Retreats like these are so needed for our Soul's healing and growth. Peter and Priya are just human forms of sunshine and this place feels like family. Looking forward to returning "

Alicia
“Personally, I hadn't realized how much impact the retreat had on me until the integration process began upon leaving.I have so much more gratitude now as I continue to use all of the tools I've gained to process what continues to unfold and manifest as a result of this powerful adventure"
Erica
“The Silent retreat at Seventh Chakra is such a gift- a gift I gave myself for my Birthday. Sitting in nature, talking to trees, laughing with birds, basking in the sun and flirting with the moon, made me realize that I am never alone. I leave here with a full heart and an expansive soul. Thank you Peter and Priya for putting so much devotion into creating such a magical experience!"
Simi Gandhi
"I am still enjoying the process. Now that I've tasted silence, I want more of it . So in addition to morning ambrosial practice, I'm sitting in silence every night before I go to bed. I feel beyond blessed to have experienced this with all of you beautiful souls"
“The silent retreat gave me a deeper reflection and understanding of myself and gave me the space to forgive myself, to love myself and embrace myself with understanding and grace. The best way I can describe my journey in silence is that through the meditation and working through all of the pain, the joy, the flood of thoughts and emotions that flowed through me, I finally found the real me!! I connected with my beloved, I unlocked my inner child and let go of all of the pain, anxiety and fears I had been holding onto for so long. Thank you to you both for giving, myself and all of us, such a beautiful and safe place to be in silence."
Christopher Falcone.
“There are places your soul recognizes before your mind understands why.This retreat is that place for me.
The silence simultaneously emptied me and filled me. I have been to 3 of these silent retreats with Seventh Chakra so far and I leave each year clearer, softer, steadier, and more myself than before."Sally Tabib

Meditative Tools

Kundalini Yoga
Ambrosial Practice
The early morning Kundalini Yoga practice burns through the restless energy and tension stored in your nervous system—the static that keeps your thoughts racing. The physical kriyas move stagnant emotion out of your tissues, releasing what you've been holding without even knowing it. Your body becomes quite enough to finally hear what's been trying to speak beneath the chaos.
Mindfulness
Sacred Tea Ceremony
In the tea ceremony, everything slows down. Each gesture is deliberate—As you watch the tea steep, as you feel the warmth in your hands, as you taste each subtle note, you're drawn out of your head and into your senses. The endless mental loops quiet because you're fully here, engaged in simple presence..
Reconnect
Commune with Nature
On our sprawling 6 acre property and working Avocado farm, communing with nature will happen effortlessly. Amongst the patient rhythm of trees, wind, flowers and stone, the answers you were searching for will rise up from somewhere deeper than thought.
Journal
Self-Reflection
Journaling is encouraged to capture subtle realizations, emotional processing and sparks of creativity. However, since the focus is on inneer reflection and silence, reading books or magazines is not allowed.
Mauna
Practice of Silence
Mauna, the practice of silence, will be observed from the first meditation on Day 1 until the last meditation on the final day of the retreat. Walking, moving, and doing things quietly will enhance the calmness and grace of your experience.
