EVERYTHING IS TAILORED TO YOU

COMPLETELY UNIQUE RETREAT EXPERIENCES

Threading all aspects of the Silence & Noise universe together in one alchemical, potent package, our retreats are anything but ordinary. Whether you’re here to invest in powerful personal development or lean into a more restful resurgence, discover our immersive residential experiences - centred around the soundspace and sprinkled with stars, earth and soul.

THE EXPERIENCE

I’m primarily a sound healing practitioner and I hold the power of sound, vibration and frequency to be the architecture of the future, as well as the medicine of our ancestry. Retreats are based around a daily sound practice which is designed to drop you deeper in to your study of self, and closer to that which you are here to heal. Don’t worry - not every day is going to feel intense, some days the sound session will be a hands-on playing party, and other days it will be a deliberately restful, gentle meditation. But the core offerings will involve WORK - not that you need to do anything other than be prepared to be SHIFTED in a magical, potent and everlasting way! Each day will also include: - Sharing Circle - Beach Meditation - Additional workshops/practices drawn from yoga, evening yin, ecstatic dance, breathwork, cosmic crafting (think mala making, macrame dreamcatchers), drum ceremonies.** - Space for 1:1 sessions including astrology, tarot, Human Design, reiki, crystal healing, acusonics or massage - Free time. This is critical! I never want you to feel rushed from one session to another. Plus, it’s literally impossible to go fast in Goa: we’re on a shanti time zone here.

IF YOU'RE HERE, YOU'RE READY

I'M READY!

A CONTAINER FOR TRANSFORMATION

Silence & Noise retreats are about finding new edges that lie beyond your comfort zone. They are rooted in our deep belief that whilst the soundspace can be a space of gentle nourishment and rejuvenation (always your option to choose), it offers a container for truly alchemical, transformative self-development work. Over the years I’ve witnessed profound releases, recognitions, revolutions and regenerations in my soundspace, and so often people immediately want to come back for more, to spend longer and deeper time in the place that is giving them that which they seek - time with their own higher consciousness, soul, and intuition. A retreat offers this time and space. Group experiences create an instant sense of powerful community - and I firmly believe that every single soul present has been called into the group because something they are ready to share is the medicine for another guest. We all give and receive in perfect harmony.

WHO DOESN'T LOVE A RETREAT? I KNOW I DO. I'VE BEEN ON ABSOLUTELY TONS OF THEM. LOADS. WHICH I BELIEVE REALLY QUALIFIES ME TO CRAFT RETREAT EXPERIENCES OF DEPTH, POWER AND POTENTIAL

Retreats have evolved so much over the past few years, and are no longer solely the domain of pure escapism, spa breaks and champagne in the hot tub (although these kind of reTeats rightfully still hold their place in the market!) Instead, retreats have risen rapidly in the wellbeing world to embody so much more than a luxe slice of anti-reality. It’s no longer (always) enough to just unplug. Especially where the offered practices include deeper and more transformational work such as sound journeying, breathwork, energetics and nature’s medicines, more and more retreat guests are discovering the power of unfolding their true selves at a far more revolutionary, and sustainable level that can be carried back across all aspects of their lives as they return from the retreat ‘bubble.’ Retreat spaces hold incredible power to support and facilitate change, to create the most incredible personal growth channels, and as they always have - to forge profound personal evolution and lifelong friendships. Silence & Noise retreats hold space at the transformational end of the retreat spectrum. Armed with the overwhelming testimonials and experiences of our guests in the soundspace, we choose to hold retreats that truly allow you to unravel, expand and evolve, in all of the beautiful ways that a spiritual being having a human experience can do. We offer several types of retreats - and yes at least one of them does involve a hot tub, or at least - its south Indian luxe equivalent! But as we believe that retreats are about stepping out of your daily grind and making space to truly HEAR yourself, we are mostly interested in the quality of time you spend with us and how we support you on your journey. That’s why the retreats we have created are more personal, hybrid holidays than the average ‘villa retreat’ - woven together with artfully crafted architecture to underpin and guide your journey, but with plenty of space for you to find your own pace and space within the container we’ve created.

this retreat is for you if

You are a human being

You are a nomad, adventurer, or wannabe either at heart

You love experiencing culture and community close up

You love sound baths, sound healing and music

You are not afraid to look into the dark side

You love basking in the light

You are curious

You just have a ping that says YES

EVOLUTIONARY RETREATS: 121

When it’s time to get deep with me, myself and I, a personal retreat can be the most incredible investment in your own wellbeing at all levels - from the physical to emotional and spiritual.

What does it even mean? A 1:1 or personal retreat is simply a commitment to taking time for yourself to meet personal challenges, set new goals, release old programming - I’m here to guide, support, hold you accountable, and deliver a curated range of treatments and processes to move you along your path.

Because it’s all you, the potential for evolution and revolution is boundless, and it involves a deeper level of trust and connection between practitioner and guest. To support this, there is a spacious intake process with time for Zoom calls in advance, so we can discuss what’s brought you to this time and place, and the goals you are moving towards.

NEED TO KNOW

AGONDA, SOUTH GOA

Let’s cut to the chase. Where do you want to go?

Hopefully to the core of your soul, or all the way to the root of that long-buried trauma…because that’s what we’ve mapped!

Geographically, we aren’t doing ‘destination’ retreats, because we are lucky to already live in the most magical part of the world, beautiful South Goa, on India’s west coast.

Discover why we love this part of the planet so much, why it’s the most wonderful base for your journey, and what a stay here looks like.

Agonda is a peaceful, magical, yoga-loving village in South Goa. We are based at the south end of the beach, close to the world-famous Sampoorna Yoga school and some of the best cafes and restaurants in the area. The beach here is beautiful white sand, perfect for swimming, and lovely little waves for longboarding. It's the perfect spot for exploring south Goa for those looking for a gentle, spiritual and soulful experience. We are 15 minutes by autorickshaw, taxi or scooter from Palolem and Patnem, where there's a bigger scene and lots more local resources if you want/need them.

Your accomodation will be at the guesthouse beneath the Silence & Noise Shala. It’s perfectly located for convenience to all amenites including cafes, restaurants, rickshaws, shops and is a 1 minute walk to the beach.

Accommodation is simple and comfortable, with en suite European standard bathrooms, comfy beds and air conditioning. You’ll find a gift bag with some little luxe extras waiting on your bed.

You can choose to have your own room, or conserve funds by sharing with another guest. I will personally match all room-sharers.

Single Room - £999

Shared Room - £750

A non refundable £300 deposit secures your place and the balance is due 6 weeks before your retreat start date (except the January date which is due 4 weeks before)

We want this retreat to be accessible to everyone. If you are really called to join but feeling under resourced, please get in touch as there will be one or two supported places per retreat.

INCLUDED:

Accommodation, breakfast and lunch x 7 days, dinner x 1 evening, all sound sessions, yoga classes, workshops and ceremonies and any required materials, luxe gift bag, personal support, love!

NOT INCLUDED:

Flights, transfers, insurance, dinners (except for opening night), optional extras like 1:1 sessions, massage, surf classes/hire), taxi and local travel.

The retreat is half board and includes breakfast and lunch at Fatimas, where you can dig into the traditional local paratha and chutney or stick to tea and toast. Unlimited bottled water is also included (drink tap water at your peril).

Dinner is up to you - there are a multitude of cheap eats and delicious curries locally, as well as excellent vegan restaurants, a wonderful Italian-run pizzeria, and many other options in nearby towns Palolem and Patnem.

We will have an opening night and closing night dinner together, but the remaining five nights are your to do with as you wish!

Scheduled workshops for your retreat are included - this will usually cover two daytime workshops (ie. mala making astrology), and one or two evening events (ie. drum circle, fire ceremony).

Beyond this, there are plenty of options for you to add in to customise your retreat, including: massage / ayurvedic treatments / surfing / reiki healing / 1:1 yoga / temple tours / boat trips / jungle hikes / trips to waterfalls and spice farms.

If enough of the group are keen on the same activity, we’ll schedule it in for everyone and organise it for you.

November to February is peak season in Goa, but Agonda remains the sleepy little sister in the state, and you won’t find all night raves and late night bars here (although there ARE lots of lovely spots for a sundowner).

The temperature is low-mid 30s every day with overnight lows in the high teens/low 20s. There is a mosquito hour, fortunately a short one, but we do advise ensuring you are prepared.

Goa is the most relaxed of all the Indian states and is used to western tourists, however it’s advisable to be conscious of local custom when it comes to clothing. Beachwear is fine for the beach, but do be considerate of local culture elsewhere.

Goa is a former Portuguese colony and you’ll notice European accents in local cuisine and the local language Konkani. Both English and Hindi are widely spoken and you generally won’t have a problem communicating. We have lots of local fixers who will be happy to help with translation, money change, bookings or anything else you need during your stay.

Please book your flight into Goa Dabolim (GOI) and NOT Goa Mopa (GOX) which is 5 hours away by road!

Dabolim is a 90 minute drive away, your airport transfer will be arranged with our local team and you’ll be collected by someone known personally to me. If rideshares work, we’ll offer them. A one way ride from the airport to Agonda costs approx £25 regardless of number of passengers.

In Agonda you’ll be able to move around on foot no problem. We can direct you to the right places for local rickshaws, taxis and scooter hire if you are keen to get super local. In general, a trip up to half an hour away should be no more than £5 - £6 in a taxi, a little less in a rickshaw. Scooters will cost around £6 per day to hire.

THANK YOU SO MUCH

I can’t wait to welcome you to the South Goan magic.

If you have questions, you can contact me at any time. I’m happy to jump on a call by arrangement - just message me to organise!

OUR RETREATS ARE BUILT AROUND THE CORE SILENCE & NOISE OFFERING OF SOUND HEALING

Think of it like the perfect album. Some pacy beats, some ballads. A story. A beginning and an ending, a journey and a destination. A feeling, an emotion, a connection.

Every day will include sound experiences whether immersive soundscapes, workshops on aspects of sonic neuroscience to help you upgrade your routine. Each and every session will be inspiring, some will be life-changing.

We mix the sound down with an elemental blend that’s unique to each and every retreat but draws from a range of ‘tracks’ including the following:

SKY - astrology and accents of Human Design

EARTH - some sort of embodiment. Maybe yoga, breathwork, hiking the jungles, swimming in waterfalls, or just contemplating nature. Or all of it.

SOUL - consciousness and how we connect with. Whether you’re ascending the 5D portals or leaning into processing unresolved trauma, stepping out of your comfort zone and being held as you meet a new doorway is an essential part of the retreat.

REST - sacred space to just be. To be human, be yourself, and hear yourself. Our retreats will never be over-scheduled or packed with timelines. We know just how hard rest is, and we’re here to hold you accountable!

TRANSFORMATIONALRETREATS: GROUPS

Group experiences create an instant sense of powerful community - and I firmly believe that every single soul present has been called into the group because something they are ready to share is the medicine for another guest.

We all give and receive in perfect harmony.

Our next retreat will be 15-22 January 2024 in Agonda, Goa, India
