Following the success of the 2023 Limbo Festival, five Retreats are planned to continue the positive energy in true Limbo style. These retreats integrate music, dance, nature, art, food, and ancient practices to create special moments throughout the year. Participants can immerse themselves in nature's tranquility and engage in mindfulness practices in a spiritually rich environment. With delicate musical interludes and Tuscan flavors, set against the enchanting backdrop of Il Ciocco mountain, the retreats offer weekends filled with well-being and nature-focused activities, including yoga and sound baths. The Sankalpa for the retreats is based on the five senses related to the Chakras.

Retreat dates:
The first retreat, scheduled for April 12th, 13th, and 14th, will be focused on the sense of smell, in relation to the first chakra, Muladhara, also known as the root chakra. Smell is our oldest sense; it is closely linked to memories and ancient conditionings that often influence our behavior unconsciously. The root chakra, Muladhara, governs the earth element within us, establishing a strong connection with our inner self. This chakra radiates positivity and joy into our lives and addresses our primary needs for survival, stability, and support, serving as the foundation of our existence. A balanced Muladhara can impart emotional strength in the face of fear and anxiety, making us feel grounded and secure. The color associated with the first chakra is red, while its Bija Mantra is OM LAM.
