Shankara Retreat Center

Shankara Retreat Center lies in a very quiet residential neighborhood and is surrounded by nature. Through the property runs a year-round stream with a swimming hole. You can hike up the stream to a beautiful waterfall or just enjoy the cool refreshment in the middle of the jungle. There are plenty of chill-out spaces to rest, read a book, or chat with like-minded people.

Shankara Retreat Center has a yoga shala close by the stream surrounded by lush tropical forest where you can fully drop in, a sitting and chill-out area, various bathrooms, individual and double glamping tents, and a wooden cabin with two rooms, a kitchenette, and a bathroom. It is important to know that this is a substance-free property so no alcohol, no drugs (even if they are natural), and no smoking. If you need to smoke, you will have to do so in front of the property, at the roadside.

Program

About the Program

Are you looking for something special this New Year's Eve? Do you feel called to end the year 2024, all its stories, experiences, and lessons with reflection and mindfulness? Do you want to call in something big for the New Year? Are you called to create a powerful start into 2025 and make your dreams come true? With different tools like yoga, meditation, coaching practices, vision board creation, psychodrama, sound journey, kirtan, and cacao ceremony, you will clear out the old and raise your vibrations for an empowered new adventure in the new year.

By leaving this year behind on a positive note, dipping into emptiness, and creating space for the new, you invite the New Year in with your full power and focused intention. A retreat to manifest your dreams into reality. You will start with grounding, with time for introspection and reflection, looking at your limiting beliefs and how they held you back in some ways in 2024. With a clean slate, you will spend the second last day of the year in silence: the inner space is clean, your internal drive emptied and thus full of storage space for the new experiences 2025 holds in store for you.

From this empty space full of possibilities, you will invite in what you want to manifest for the year to come. The last day of the year will be entirely focused on this powerful intention. The experience coming to a peak in the evening with a very special “manifest the new you” party. For this party, you will all arrive as your future version and stay in character the whole evening, supporting each other and creating strong manifestation vibrations together. And of course, have some fun.

The first day of the New Year will be all about creating the circumstances for the life you want, calling it in with meditations, rituals, practices, and a vision board workshop. You will anchor in the vibrations of an empowered New Year with special exercises for you to spread your wings and fly into the New Year full of anticipation, excitement, and strength. This is a retreat for those of you who feel called to take responsibility for your creative forces and channel them to design a powerful, blissful, and magical New Year.
