What Past Attendees Are Saying

Magical Experience!

My first Cirak retreat was really, really magical! Every day was a special day. The workshops, the meditations, the food, the hospitality, everything was arranged perfectly. And, of course, all the incredible people I met! This experience was something I will never forget.

Kely D.

Much-needed structure!

I was trying many things in my life, yet I was not able to put them practically. How to live each moment, be you, triggers, feeling the feelings, etc. This retreat gave me much-needed structure, a daily practice. It got me really excited about the journey ahead. I want to see how far I can go.

Chhaya V.

Really powerful!

I loved the meditations, the tours, the people. Feeling appreciated by everybody, feeling accepted, was really powerful. It was a great vibe. We really bonded as a group. Many of them have become life-long friends. Chris’ mindfulness teachings will help me a lot in daily life.

Bjorn H.

Exceded all expectations

It was great, it was amazing. The entire event was so well organized. I got everything I wanted out of it and much much more. Cirak’s teachings are thought-changing. He gives you a new perspective, helps you break through all your beliefs, and shows you how to live your life the way you’re meant to.

Dhairya V.

We became a family

This was my first-ever retreat. I’m so happy I took it. It’s new to put myself as a priority. But once we do, we can help others. I met so many amazing people from all over the world. We became a family. This week was so fulfilling and eye-opening. All the workshops, meditations… we were never bored. I’m really grateful for this experience.

A miracle experience

I came here spontaneously. It turned out to be so inspiring, so creative. I found real people, real hearts, real feelings, real love. It was mesmerizing, beyond my expectations. Be You is so easy to understand, to sink into. I feel so blessed. This retreat was a miracle experience. I can’t wait to attend another one.

Another level

This experience took things to another level for me. Cirak’s talks help you understand meditation in such simple terms, it takes away all the complications so you can focus on the practice. Plus, I met the most amazing people. I’m absolutely thrilled to have been part of this.
