This retreat is an invitation to step out of noise and back into presence. Set between Marrakech and the Moroccan desert, it offers a deeply grounding and transformative experience designed for people on a conscious path who feel called to slow down, reconnect, and realign. The retreat is guided by two facilitators who walk beside you rather than above you. The space is held with care, humility, and devotion, allowing each participant to be met exactly where they are. There is no fixed agenda imposed from theory or doctrine. The work is guided by presence, intuition, and what is alive in the moment for the group and the individual. Over nine days, the journey unfolds through a balance of structure and spaciousness. Days in the desert include barefoot walking at dawn, breathing with the sunrise, movement and somatic practices, meditation, sound and vibrational healing, energy work, grounding rituals, and time in silence. Evenings are spent under the stars, with ceremony, music, and rest. The experience also includes a traditional hammam, cacao ceremony, desert hike with local guides and dromedaries, and nights in both desert camps and eco-lodges. The work focuses on embodiment rather than performance, helping participants reconnect to their nervous system, energy, intuition, and inner truth. Practices support release, integration, clarity, and a return to what feels essential. This is not about becoming someone new, but about remembering what is already there and learning to move from that place with more ease, strength, and alignment. The retreat welcomes an intimate group of like-minded people ready to share an authentic experience without masks, roles, or expectations. It is suited for those in transition, those seeking deeper connection with themselves and nature, and those who feel the call to pause and listen. Practical details: • 9 days ​/​ 7 nights • March 29 – April 6 • Start and end in Marrakech • Includes accommodation, meals (vegetarian​/​local), all guided practices and ceremonies, group transport, and desert experiences • Retreat held in English (basic English required)

Evenings are spent around the fire with music, stargazing, and quiet time. Camp logistics are handled by local nomads, allowing participants to fully focus inward.
