Jack Kornfield, one of the leading Buddhist teachers in the West, and Stanislav Grof, a pioneer in the field of consciousness and the creator of Holotropic Breathwork™, blend the richness of Buddhist practices of compassion and liberation with the experiential wisdom born out of modern consciousness research, to offer an extraordinary journey of renewal, healing, and transformation.

With sacred music, periods of silence, mandala drawing, and formal teachings, we explore the power and depth of breathwork and meditation. We practice Buddhist meditations of the breath and heart to touch the center of our being. We use Holotropic Breathwork (holotropic is Greek for “moving toward wholeness”) to enter a nonordinary state of consciousness that brings healing and insight. It is the nature of Holotropic Breathwork to bring into consciousness whatever the psyche is ready to have exposed. Therefore, each time we come to the breathwork, we open to more hidden and more subtle material.

This 7-day retreat is one of the last trainings in Holotropic Breathwork conducted by its founder, Stanislav Grof. It is suitable for both new and experienced practitioners of meditation and breathwork, and is of interest to laypeople and mental health professionals alike.
