RETREATS
Buenos Aires, Argentina – October 30-November 6
Join us for an 8-day journey through the bohemian world of Buenos Aires. Explore a culture that understands that our souls must express their creativity to feel alive. Spark your imagination and curiosity. Explore altered states of consciousness. Connect with your dreams and yourself.
Beyond the stereotypical tango, steak and malbec, there is a world of theatre, music, dance and art that gives Buenos Aires a creative energy that I’ve never felt anywhere else. People here understand that they are more than their day jobs and that creative endeavours are what feed the soul.
I have always loved attending cultural events in my adopted home of London but it wasn’t until I started living part of the year in Buenos Aires that I understood that expressing creativity isn’t something you schedule in once a month, it should permeate life. My time here has changed me – stimulated my curiosity, relaxed the constraints I had placed on myself, and allowed me to reconnect with and express my creativity.
I want others to experience the city’s contagious passion for life and feel inspired. However, I recognise that it is not feasible for everyone to fall in love with someone in Buenos Aires and move to another continent, as I did! So I have created an 8-day programme of theatre, music, dance and art – along with the steak and malbec, because they are damn good – that will give an inspiring taste of another way of life.
Alongside the evening artistic itinerary, participants will be guided and supported in self-exploration of the outer world and their inner worlds. It is not enough to watch, we must do!
During the day, participants can choose from a range of creative activities or exploratory assignments that will take them around the city. It is up to you how far you want to push yourself outside of your comfort zone. See where inspiration takes you and what adventures serendipity provides!
Oneirogens and other plant medicines, supported by guided meditations, will aid in connecting with dreams and other altered states of consciousness. The culmination of this work will be a mind and mood-altering night in an incredible dome outside of the city, where participants will have a fully supported experience surrounded by beautiful nature. This aspect of the retreat will be tailored to each individual’s experience, comfort level and goals, with guidance, support and integration provided at all stages.
This combination of self-work and artistic programme is designed as a kick-start. Return home feeling inspired, less constrained and more connected – to yourself and your creative life force.
Practical details:
Arrival on Thursday October 30, staying at a luxurious boutique hotel in the Palermo neighbourhood of Buenos Aires. The first night we will have a welcome dinner, get to know each other and go over the programme.
The following 4 nights we will explore the city together, with dinners and creative performances. We will start the days together, discussing dreams and setting objectives for the day, then you will explore on your own through your chosen activities.
On November 5 – night of the full moon – we will travel to Casa Tierra, a retreat centre with a dome and glamping, an hour outside of the city.
We will then have a final day and night back in Buenos Aires for relaxation and integration. Take advantage of the hotel’s spa and enjoy a massage or osteopathy during the day, and at night we will come together to share our experiences over dinner.
