FRIDAY REBIRTH An Evening Retreat at House of the Sun
What if your Friday night became a portal back to yourself?
Friday Rebirth is a 3.5-hour immersive evening journey created to help you release the weight of the week, return to your body, reclaim your energy, and enter the weekend feeling lighter, clearer and deeply restored.
Not another wellness class.
Not just a sound bath.
Not just a sauna.
It is a carefully guided journey where breath, movement, fire, sound, steam, cold, water and stillness become one experience.
THE JOURNEY
🌬️ BREATH — ARRIVE
We begin with guided breathwork, allowing the nervous system to slow down, the outside world to soften, and your attention to return to your body.
🔥 FIRE — RELEASE
From breath, we move to the fire for a guided cleansing ritual — an intentional moment to acknowledge and release what you no longer want to carry with you.
🧘 YOGA — OPEN
We move into a gentle yoga practice designed to open the body, release accumulated tension and prepare you for deeper stillness.
🔔 MEDITATION & CRYSTAL SOUND — RECEIVE
Movement gradually dissolves into meditation and a crystal sound journey. Nothing to achieve. Nothing to figure out. Just space to receive, soften and reconnect with yourself.
♨️ BANYA — PURIFY
Then we enter the traditional banya ritual — heat, steam and conscious work with the body.
Each guest will also have an opportunity for individual work with our banya master, making this more than simply sitting in a sauna.
❄️ COLD PLUNGE — AWAKEN
Heat meets cold. A conscious cold immersion brings you fully back into the body — awake, present and alive.
✨ RECLAIM YOUR STRUCTURE
Inside the banya, our Head Spiritual Master of House of the Sun will guide a special practice of gathering your structure — bringing your attention and energy back to yourself, reconnecting with your inner center after everything you have released.
🌊 POOL • STARS • INTEGRATION
The intensity gives way to spaciousness: time in the pool, open sky and stars, allowing the body to settle and the experience to integrate.
🍵 TEA & LIGHT BITES — RETURN
We close together over herbal tea and light snacks — grounded, warm and unhurried.
EVERYTHING IS PREPARED FOR YOU
Come exactly as you are.
We provide everything needed for the experience — practices, towels and everything required for the banya and evening journey, tea and light bites.
The only thing you need to bring is your swimsuit. 🤍
Come carrying the week.
Leave carrying yourself. ✨
