ROUNDING RETREAT

A transformative retreat for existing Vedic Meditators

Rounding is the most immediate way for Vedic meditators to take their practice to the next level.

Soma Rounding is a four-day, three-night immersion program aimed at rejuvenating your body-mind and expanding your consciousness through the ancient practice of Rounding. Rounding is a unique sequence of very simple asanas, breathwork and meditation designed to release significant amounts of stress in a short period of time. This technique has been used for thousands of years allowing us to access the depths of our awareness, release layers of tension and fatigue from the nervous system and provide a palpable sense of peace and stillness that allows us to adapt to life's challenges more easily.

The only prerequisite of this retreat is that you have learned Vedic meditation previously. There is no minimum amount of time you need to have been meditating to attend a rounding retreat. This retreat is perfect for those looking to re-engage with their meditation practice or anyone looking to take their practice to the next level.

What is rounding?

From Those Who Know

"The retreat was mind-blowing. I had no idea how deep and expansive the practice was actually going to be. I have experience and practiced many different forms of meditation and yoga, however there was something really profound and almost indescribable about rounding. It has really changed me and I continue to feel its benefits on a daily level." – Cassie B.

"I had a pretty transformative experience during my time at Soma. I’ve done a lot of things over the last 2 years to try and get back into balance - retreats, lifestyle changes, shed a lot of my past life including moving, career changes, closing my company, removing much of what I consider ‘the old life’ habits, including people, it’s been a lot. So I’ll be honest in saying whilst I expected some benefits from Soma, I didn’t expect what happened at all. I thought it would be a nice relaxing few days, but that was not my experience. I came out with a lot more than that! So for that I am very grateful." – Georgia H.
