Non-Duality, Silent 7-day Retreat, UK, August 2026
Wednesday, 19th August 6pm UK time - Wednesday, 26th August 12pm UK Time
Join Lisa on a seven-day silent retreat, where the noise of daily life softens and a space of deep rest, openness, and silence naturally unfolds. In this intimate retreat, Lisa gently guides an exploration of the illusion of the separate self, revealing the freedom that is already present—beyond effort, beyond thought, beyond seeking. Through talks, open Q&A, shared silence, bodywork, meditation, and kirtan, you are invited to see through the story of “me” and reconnect with the natural ease of simply being.
This year’s venue is a peaceful beautiful place that supports individual spiritual exploration and growth. It places strong emphasis on sustainable food culture, offering organic meals, most of which are grown on the property.
