LATE SUMMER ROUNDING RETREAT

CT , 8. 28 - 9.1

Join us for a long weekend retreat of deep rest and restoration in Lyme, Connecticut. Lyme, Connecticut is a quiet, charming town along the Connecticut River—surrounded by trees, stillness, and a deep connection to nature.

From August 28 to September 1, we’ll gather at a private residence surrounded by nature—complete with a pool, gardens, and open-air stillness—perfect for rounding, reflection, and quiet integration.

This immersive experience is designed for Vedic Meditators ready to deepen their practice through multiple rounds each day. Imagine this experience as summer camp for your inner child. With guided instruction, daily vedic knowledge meetings, nourishing meals with our in-house chef, and evening sound baths, we’ll create the ideal conditions for the nervous system to unwind at the deepest level.

This retreat is an invitation to shift the baseline—to stabilize Being in activity and reconnect to your innate rhythm through rest.

what is rounding?

  • the technique

    Known as “industrial strength meditation,” Rounding is a 4-part (asana–breath-meditation-savasana) sequence that prepares your mind and body for a profoundly deep meditation. On a Rounding Retreat, we do multiple daily rounds for transformational stress release & the stabilization of Being. Rounding on retreat provides the equivalent stress release of 6 months of twice-daily meditation.

  • prime your nervous system

    To fully immerse yourself in the retreat experience, we highly recommend learning the Rounding technique beforehand. This 4-part (asana–breath-meditation-savasana) sequence enhances the body’s ability to release stress, access deep rest, and stabilize Being in the field of activity. Everything is about sequence and stabilization. If your nervous system has been primed and established in rounding prior, you will be able to get to higher rounds on the retreat. 

    If you haven’t learned Rounding yet, we’re offering a special $200 rate (normally $400) exclusively for retreat participants. [Click here for upcoming Rounding workshops]
