Before & After your Stay
Preparing for this commitment
Preparing for this commitment.
For nourishment, we highly recommend a diet consistent with any tribal medicine journey. Free from animal products and as raw as you can do for at least 10 days.
For your spirit/soul: get yourself spiritually prepared for this dive. Settle any issues in your personal life. Arrive in a safe, expansive state of mind. Darkness retreats are not a weekend at the spa.
These spiritual journeys are for people wanting to next level and unlearn all they have accepted across generations.

After your rebirth
Integration is half the journey and all the benefit.
After your rebirth ceremony at dawn, you will need a place stay. Please honor your journey with a delicate transition back to your normal routine. We highly recommend a brief delay before traveling.
Breathwork sessions are highly recommended as a part of your integrative growth process.
