New Year Retreat 2026

The 5 day Elemental Flow

About the retreat

This New Year Retreat is a slow, meaningful 5-day journey through the five elements: Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Ether. Designed to help you release old patterns and enter 2026 with clarity, softness, and renewed energy, it blends movement, sound, nature, reflection, and conscious celebration in the serene surroundings of Tapovan.
