Time away from every source of stimulation
A darkness retreat is a rare opportunity to step away from external stimulation and turn inward, toward stillness, presence, and inner knowing. With nothing to look at and nowhere to be, the nervous system is given room to rest deeply.
There is no method to follow here. No substances, no teacher, no formal practice. You don't need prior meditation or retreat experience. What matters most is a genuine willingness to be present with yourself, even when that presence is unfamiliar.
Into the dark, and back out slowly

You are met and walked to your cabin. Orientation, dinner, then you enter the dark that evening.

In the dark
Rest, sleep, sit, listen. Two warm meals arrive each day, and your facilitator checks in once daily.
- Final evening
Emergence
A gradual return: soft natural light, a slow walk on the land, time to write.
- Final night
A night in the light
One more night on site before you travel. An optional closing circle is offered.

Depart
You leave at noon, unhurried.
Spring 2027, at a rate that fits your means
Seven retreats run back to back from March 15 to April 12, 2027. Every guest receives the same retreat. You choose your rate, and we don't ask for proof.
Covers the cost of your retreat.
Covers your retreat and puts $400 toward a reduced rate for someone who couldn't otherwise come.

These are the Standard cabin prices. The Premium cabin, the larger of the four, is $300 more at every rate: $1,900, $2,300 or $2,800.
“No substance, no teacher, no practice to follow — just me and the dark. Because of that, the insights and revelations I received felt undeniably my own.”
