The main Practice

In order to make the most of the last waxing moon period of the Earth Boar year, this 7 day retreat will be mostly dedicated to the Guruyoga and Long Life practice of Guru Padmasambhava. As such this retreat will be a precious opportunity to deepen our connection and knowledge of the teachings that we received from our Master Chögyal Namkhai Norbu.

The Location

Waiheke is a small island found a breeze away from Auckland, New Zealand, which makes its location secluded, intimate and extremely accessible. During the end of January, the weather is usually dry and warm which makes it ideal for practice, relaxation and rejuvenation. Furthermore, the open sky surrounding the retreat setting and its closest beach 5 minutes walk away are inducive for a calm and contemplative atmosphere
