​The Intimacy Project: New Year Reset

​29th December – 2nd January
Arambol, Goa

​Maybe something in you is asking to slow down.
Not because you’ve failed…
but because you’ve been carrying too much, for too long.

​The end of a year has a way of bringing things to the surface—
what’s unresolved, what’s repeating, what’s quietly asking for change.

​This retreat is a space to listen to that.

​Not to fix it.
Not to push through it.
But to be with it, gently, honestly, and with support.

​The Journey

​Over five days, we come together to step out of the noise of everyday life and return to something more simple, more real.

​We begin with the self—
meeting ourselves exactly where we are.

​Through breath, body, and awareness, we start to see more clearly:
the patterns we’ve been living,
the ways we protect ourselves,
and the places we’ve stopped listening.

​As the days unfold, we gently expand—
into connection with nature,
with our surroundings,
and with one another.

​This is a natural reset.
One that happens when space is given, not forced.

​New Year’s Eve: Cacao Ceremony & Union in Motion

​On New Year’s Eve, we begin with a cacao ceremony—a space to soften, open, and connect to what is truly alive within you.

​From here, we move into Union in Motion—an embodied connection practice guided by breath, awareness, and presence.

​There is no choreography. Nothing to get right.

​We begin with the self, allowing movement to arise naturally. From here, we may explore connection with others, always rooted in consent and awareness.

​The journey unfolds fluidly—from cacao, into movement, into connection, and into a free flow space of expression.

​As midnight approaches, we come back together into shared stillness—welcoming the new year in clarity, presence, and quiet truth.
