ROUNDING RETREAT
October 30 - November 3
JOSHUA TREE, CALIFORNIA
Join us for a long weekend retreat of deep rest and restoration in Joshua Tree, California. This private residence is surrounded by desert terrain—complete with a pool, hot tub, outdoor lounge, bocci ball courts, walking trails, and a yoga room—perfect for rounding, reflection, and quiet integration.
This immersive experience is designed for Vedic Meditators to achieve deep rest and a full nervous system reboot through the practice of Rounding. With morning guided rounds, daily vedic knowledge meetings, nourishing meals 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.
