woMEN who see in the dark
October 1-9, 2026 | Spain
A men´s retreat, remembering the natural intimacy that lives beyond masks and acts
Step into the unknown
One of the deepest sufferings for men in the modern world is the lack of genuine intimacy, a craving for meaningful connection.
This retreat is an invitation to drop the masks and roles, to reclaim authentic brotherhood, and awaken the intimacy that has always been within you.
Through darkroom meditation, honest sharing, and play, we enter the unknown, dissolving old stories and emerging with presence, fullness, and an open heart.
What this retreat is about
This is a journey of honesty, embodiment and initiations. A space to release roles, masks and strategies that keep us apart from intimacy.
Through brotherhood, vulnerability, and play, we unveil the connection that has always been within.
Here is a space where men learn to connect without playing any role, to remember each other
… so that when we meet women, it comes from fullness, not need.
Key themes of the retreat:
Daily darkroom meditation
Releasing any “man role”
Building brotherhood through tenderness, honesty and simplicity
Releasing shame and conditioning through art, play, and presence
Remembering intimacy from before it became sexual — innocence in the body
Honesty as liberation: daring to see where we manipulate… even ourselves
The intimacy we crave has nothing to do with sex but with tenderness, deep honesty, and the simple raw aspects of who we are.
WO-MEN WHO SEE IN THE DARK invites us beyond polarity, into the vastness that holds all opposites:
Two journeys - one field.
Women and Men meet separately, descending into darkness, releasing roles, expectation, inherited identities, towards remembrance of what cannot be defined.
After these immersions, having touched source individually, the final three days are shared with women: resting in presence, allowing spontaneity to arise from relaxation, releasing neediness, seduction, performance, identity roles, mutual recognition in freedom as love beyond polarity.
Beyond Polarity, Into Vastness
Conflict arises when we cling to opposites. Freedom begins when we remember the vastness that holds both sides.
WO-MEN WHO SEE IN THE DARK invites us beyond polarity, into the spaciousness that embraces all opposites.
Loosing grip of identity - right and wrong, this and that, masculine and feminine, we rediscover a space where opposition is truly complementarity.
Like salt dissolving into water, distinctions are integrated, allowing a deeper creative power to arise from within.
Darkness is a threshold, a transition into the unknown: a fertile space of trust and awareness where we release outdated roles and inherited stories, creating inner spaciousness to remember what sustains life beneath it all.
In darkness, clarity emerges through presence, reconnecting with core qualities of aliveness, groundedness, self-confidence, relaxation, and an openness that embraces all nuances of being human.
These retreats are living laboratories, where gender, roles and labels soften in the recognition of our shared humanity.
Whether you come alone or as a couple, you are invited to experience freedom as love… Freedom to be beyond identities of gender, labels, limitations… Love that arises when we are rooted in sensitivity, spontaneous expression, and infinite possibilities.
From this freedom-love, relationships become a meeting point, rooted in source and allowing our souls to shine through heart-body.
A retreat for remembering what sustains aliveness beneath all definitions.
