We can only be of service to others and in loving relationships with our family when we take care of ourselves. People are increasingly conscious about diets and exercise and know how to support themselves in daily life, but taking care of ourselves sometimes means leaving the familiarity and reconnecting with ourselves in a different environment. If you feel you need a deep recharge, to realign with your essence and rediscover your sense of self, join us for this revitalizing retreat in the beautiful nature of Umbria, Italy.
About the retreat
Do you feel called to reclaim your true essence? But what exactly does it mean? We all know life is a journey and we learn every day. We show up for life and interact with our surroundings. There are periods, some short and some longer, when we feel like we are in a loop, seemingly bumping into the same lessons, feeling stuck and depleted. The truth is that we are born with an inner knowing, an inner recognition of ourselves that stays with us throughout our lives, but this inner knowing can be hard to hear when we are caught in the noise of our daily lives.
The path to reconnecting with our essence doesn’t have to be difficult. By incorporating small rituals and practices into daily life, and connecting with places in nature that nurture you, you can support yourself and learn to be more present and listen deeply. The world gets a bit quieter and your inner voice is clear enough for you to hear. You will create the space and ground to return to yourself and discover your true essence.
In a group, not bigger than 12 people, you will be guided by two experienced facilitators. You will receive lots of attention, a strong and safe space, and will be fully guided on a beautiful journey of self-discovery.
On his retreat, you will get the chance to let your senses rest from all the city noises. You will soothe your nervous system and feel the bone-deep relaxation you crave so much. LESS is MORE and discovering that will improve your life on all levels.
Where will you be staying?
You will reside in one of the most beautiful regions of Italy, Umbria, surrounded by 3000 hectares of nature, in the majestic isolation of a true Unesco Biosphere Reserve. Our host will be the exclusive Emerito hotel, a Contemporary monastery, and a multiple award-winning venue, which is among the most recognized eco-friendly hotels in the world. It is a unique place, a secular hermitage where you can spend a relaxing and regenerating time, away from the noises of everyday life. Eremito is a mystical place, a result of a long journey of self-discovery by the founder.

Reviews
Attending a retreat with Lili was the best life changing experience in my adult life. Personal growth processes that started there, completely redirected my life path towards my true purpose and are still resonating deeply within me. […]
Most importantly, she empowered me in a way that I am now able to feel my true capacity – and have a clear vision to grow into a future me – that I didn’t dare to think it can exist.

Lili Studio workshops are an extraordinary journey, a practice to surrendering and leading with Pure Light and Love. […] The results of intense working with such a dedicated teacher (Lili Studio) are amazing. I feel profoundly empowered and dare to live a lot more in my original vibration. Liberating.

Each one [workshops] is unique and leaves a lasting impression on me. Besides the high professional level of guiding through intuition, experience and honesty, I would like to point out the feeling of safety I feel to explore my inner world and my body. These workshops are an important part of my personal growth and they always turn out to be extremely useful and pleasant.

With your help and with the help of the invisible space that you open I am more in tune with the responsibility I have to myself, to the people around me, to the love I feel and to everything that surrounds me. I see a bigger picture, you teach me about moderation, about my boundaries, my capabilities, and limitations in a way that feels close to me and inspires me. It is consistent, based in knowledge and experience and holds within cosmopolitanism. M.
