Retreat Style & Approach

The program operates under a conventional dark-room training system which requires attendees to spend their entire program time in complete darkness. The retreat space contains a bedroom section and a tiny kitchen area and a bathroom which blocks all light from entering. The nervous system starts to relax when we lose sight of things which allows our brain to better understand our emotional state and memory content and personal feelings.

People who join the group will spend their days in rest while they meditate and think deeply about their natural body rhythms. People who join Darkness Retreat in Spain need to lead their own experience because the program does not provide any structured wellness activities. The lack of outside stimulation creates an environment which enables people to express their emotions while achieving mental focus and self-understanding.


Duration Options / Who It’s For

The Darkness Retreat in Spain program provides quick entry sessions which help people learn about this practice while protecting them from any danger. People usually spend three to four days in complete darkness when they attend retreats which last for this amount of time.

The products work best for people who need relief from their buildup of stress and exhaustion and emotional tiredness and who want to spend time thinking deeply about themselves.
