About the Retreat:
Our minds are amazing creations in the vast universe. They control our existence, and they are connected to our bodies. Exploring and understanding our minds takes us on a journey to learn more about ourselves and gain awareness.
Mind: The Locus of Creation:
The mind is a complex entity that extends beyond the physical boundaries of our anatomy. It serves as the locus where experiences unfold, feelings emerge, and memories are etched into the fabric of our existence.
Our brain, consisting of a staggering 100 billion neuron cells, acts as the conduit for receiving. It transmits messages through neurotransmitters. The continuous interaction with the external environment through our senses creates a profound impact on our mental state. The mind becomes the canvas where joy and sorrow, pleasure and pain, coalesce into a tapestry of experiences.
Thoughts and Actions:
Our thoughts make us do what we do. they create a continuous loop of thinking, acting, and experiencing. But, our minds get stuck in the same types of thoughts, 60 to 70% of our thoughts are being repeated. If we will only focus on what happened in the past, we will lose the enjoyment of the present.
This can be a problem if we are only thinking of the past and future rather than the present. We don’t pay enough attention to what’s happening right now. This can even affect our bodies. It causes physical issues because our minds and bodies are not working together. So, it’s important to find a balance and be present in the moment for our well-being.

In contemporary society, mental well-being has become a major concern, influencing physical health. This retreat seeks to address the prevalent mental challenges of our times. It recognizes that an imbalance in the mind-body connection can be assumed physical ailment.
