"When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy.”

- Rumi

The second of two retreats with Mahasukha in our programme this year. An uplifting weekend of beautiful part-harmony soulful singing and mantra led by the inspiring Mahasukha. A joyful, meditative and devotional experience guaranteed to put a smile on your face and uplift your heart and soul. Beautiful harmonies, beautifully simple, simply magic!

“Probably the most beautiful and uplifting thing I have ever sung.

I felt afterwards that I'd had a deep spiritual experience. It was wonderful.” 

- Janet

Singing and chanting connects us more deeply to ourselves, to each other and to our ideals. We release those endorphins, raise our vibration and awaken to new energy, faith and inspiration. Together we create a magical harmonious whole - touched and blessed by beauty and the sacred.

"Your workshops are super healing. I always cry with ​joy.”

- Mémé

As well as morning meditation, the weekend will consist of a rich variety of African, sacred, indigenous, folk and contemporary songs and chants. We will also chant devotional Buddhist mantras and perform mantra rituals before a beautiful shrine. Both song and mantra will be taught by Mahasukha in part-harmony and by ear, and he will accompany both with inspiring drumming.

All the songs and mantras have great depth, meaning and magic within them. The whole experience will likely inspire you and open your heart. You may even be moved to tears and experience great joy and bliss. There will be laughter, play and fun but also stillness, silence and peace.

This retreat is suitable for those who are able to hold a tune. By that, we mean that you are able to hear the part that you are taught and then repeat it with others singing your part. This doesn’t mean that you have to be an experienced or accomplished singer, just that you can hold a tune so that all the parts can come together into a harmonious whole.

If you know that you can hold a tune, and you know which part/range you are (soprano, alto, tenor or bass), select your part when booking. 

If you’re unsure whether you can hold a tune, or which part/range you are, then please watch the short video below. Mahasukha will sing each part of a simple song. If you can hear and then repeat any one of the parts then this retreat is suitable for you.
