Vedic Rounding & Himalayan Breathwork Retreat Aug 11-14th Byron Bay
Some of the greatest shifts we experience happen when we intentionally step away from the noise of daily life — with a purpose to release what no longer serves us. That is what this retreat is for. To let go of stress, burnout, and stale patterns… and open up to something new.
This retreat is about exactly that.
It’s an invitation to shift the perspectives that limit us, to reconnect with a deeper sense of self, and to return to life feeling rejuvenated, grounded, and more aligned with who we truly are.
If that resonates, we’d love to welcome you to Byron Bay, from August 11–14, 2025, for a 4-day, 3-night retreat at the stunning Wybalena Organic Farm.
What’s involved:
Our core practices include:
- Vedic Rounding (a powerful sequence of gentle yoga asanas, breathwork, and meditation)
- Breathwork, spanning Himalayan traditions, superventilation techniques, and science-based functional breathing
- Nature immersions, ice baths, sound healing, infrared saunas, and massage therapy
These practices are designed to calm the nervous system, unlock deep healing, and reconnect you to your body, mind, and spirit — all while being immersed in the nurturing beauty of nature.
Important Note:
To participate in the Rounding you need to be a practitioner of Vedic meditation or TM, you can learn prior to the retreat at a reduced rate, or on retreat for an additional cost.
OMG, the food. One thing we pride ourselves on is delivering you a wonderful experience with food. So rest assured you will be nurtured with food that not only tastes amazing but nurtures you on a holistic level. We feel that food is an essential ingredient to connection! Therefore we only use passionate caterers who share a love of the power of food in the role of wellness and joy. The food on the Reconnect retreat is vegetarian and those with other dietary requirements are catered for. .

This retreat isn’t about pampering or surface-level fixes — it’s about nourishing the deeper layers of your being. It’s a chance to gently step away from the noise of daily life and reconnect with what feels most true, calm, and alive within you.
At its heart, this experience is about releasing what no longer supports you, restoring balance, and realigning with your natural state of clarity and vitality — not through force, but through deep rest, breath, and stillness.
You won’t be asked to unpack your stories or revisit the past. Instead, through the gentle power of Vedic Rounding, Himalayan Breathwork, functional breathwork and supportive practices like sound healing, cold immersion, infrared saunas, massage, and time in nature, you’ll be guided to release accumulated stress — quietly, naturally, and at a cellular level.
When we allow the old to soften and fall away, we create space for something new:
More energy. More ease. More connection to self.
That’s what this retreat is here to offer.

The Facilitators
Rich
Blending modern science with ancient sacred practices, Rich guides others on a journey back to wellbeing — helping them reconnect with their bodies, release long-held stress, and rediscover clarity, vitality, and calm.
With over 18 years immersed in the world of meditation, Rich discovered Vedic Meditation a decade ago — a turning point that felt less like learning something new and more like remembering something deeply familiar. From that moment, he knew this was a practice he was here to share.
As your retreat guide, Rich will lead you through Vedic Rounding, a profoundly restorative sequence that combines gentle movement, breathwork, and meditation to calm the nervous system and release deeply embedded tension.
He is also a trained Functional Breathwork facilitator, offering a powerful blend of ancient techniques and evidence-based breath practices to support emotional regulation, nervous system balance, and overall wellbeing.
Rich has a degree in Psychological Science and is currently undertaking Honours research into how breathwork enhances wellbeing. His work sits at the intersection of the sacred and the scientific, drawing from both ancient wisdom and contemporary psychological research to create grounded, life-enhancing experiences.
