A space for returning to yourself.

STILL is a retreat for people who are tired of constant noise, endless socializing, work, meetings, parties, and the overwhelming pace of modern city life.

In the city, it is easy to stay constantly in motion — but difficult to truly slow down. That is why we are creating a space where people can ground themselves, exhale, restore their inner resources, and gradually reconnect with themselves.

The retreat gently guides each participant toward inner stillness through nature, slow living, meditation, body awareness practices, and soft, attentive support. We are not followers of Zen Buddhism, yet we thoughtfully incorporate several elements of its philosophy and practices: presence, simplicity, observation, respect for silence, and deep attentiveness to the present moment.

The main purpose of the retreat is to help people release themselves from the endless stream of thoughts, rediscover inner stability, reconnect with their true desires, and experience a sense of calm again.

One of the defining aspects of STILL is its approach to guidance, inspired by the philosophy of Japanese retreats. There are no alarms, harsh schedules, rigid instructions, or pressure. Instead, throughout the entire experience, participants are accompanied by a guide — someone who gently reminds, gathers, supports, and carefully leads them through the retreat journey with sensitivity and care.

The retreat is designed not only to provide rest and restoration, but also to leave participants with something deeper: the ability to return to themselves every day, even after returning to ordinary life.
