services

I do everything related to hygienic dark retreating: study, experiment, write, speak, consult, design, build, operate, support.

I do nothing related to active approaches to dark retreating: spiritual, therapeutic, or psychedelic.

Find more information on everything below in my store.

retreat

  • I support retreats in person at my place or yours. They are 11 days: a 9-day Czech retreat + 2 buffer days.

    The process is to read, confer, enroll, book, and retreat.

  • I support retreats remotely. This also begins with reading and conferring.
  • If you plan to retreat on your own, I can confer with you about your questionnaire by email and phone.

Marion Abbott of Australia at Profound Rest Retreats is also organizing retreats. Simen Kirkerød of Norway can do it, too (write me).
