Daruma Vision™ - 2025 Year-End Edition
An exclusive vision-activation experience for conscious, ambitious humans.
Daruma Vision™ is Rocklit’s signature vision-activation experience for leaders who want to step out of the noise and reconnect with their inner clarity.
Through a blend of reflection, sound-led regulation, and Japanese ritual, this session activates a deeper layer of clarity essential for intentional and intuitive decision-making.
This is not a typical workshop. It is an experiential, embodied experience that reconnects you with your internal strategic compass, so that direction emerges from within.
When inner clarity sharpens, outer impact follows.
Each edition is an ichigo-ichie (一期一会), held once in a unique historical home.
This winter, we meet at Iseyahori, a 98-year-old kominka, where you’ll activate your vision with the blue Daruma symbolizing truth, depth, and winter clarity.
Why Leaders Choose This Experience
Leaders today are working in highly demanding environments, where they risk losing touch with the most crucial asset: clarity of mind, heart and direction.
Daruma Vision™ creates the conditions for that clarity to surface.
Participants join this experience to:
Create space to reflect and reconnect with themselves
Shift from reactivity to intentional, grounded decision-making
Access clarity that feels aligned and sustainable
Articulate and anchor a direction they genuinely believe in
Strengthen presence, focus, and emotional steadiness
Reconnect with their vision beyond day-to-day demands
Who This Is For
This session is for people who want intentional space to think, reset, and get clear on what comes next. If your plate is full but your path feels unclear, this experience offers the clarity you need.
It’s for you if you’re:
Navigating growth or transition
Making complex decisions with limited time to reflect
Wanting alignment and renewed direction
In a season of change and seeking clarity
Feeling the pace of life and work but craving stillness
Drawn to intentional rituals that help anchor goals
Curious about Japanese traditions and the atmosphere of a 98-year-old kominka
Interested in meaningful conversation within a small, supportive group
It may not be the right fit if you:
Want quick tactical tools without deeper reflection
Seek a social or networking-first event
Are uncomfortable with stillness or simple rituals
Are not open to exploring a different way of accessing clarity
Daruma Vision™ works best when participants bring openness, presence, and curiosity.
