Overview

LOTUS BLOOM will be a journey through body, mind, heart and spirit. It is designed not only for people who already practice yoga or spirituality, but for anyone who feels the desire to reconnect with themselves, experience something deeper and return home feeling lighter, clearer and more alive. Throughout our days together, we will share spiritual teachings, meditation, self-inquiry, breathwork, sound, rituals, conscious movement and gentle yoga. The yoga practices will be accessible to everyone. There will be no emphasis on difficult postures, flexibility or performance. Instead, we will use easy flowing movement, body awareness, conscious breathing, fascia work and somatic release to reconnect with the intelligence of the body. Because transformation cannot happen only through the mind. Sometimes we have already understood our patterns. We have spoken about them, worked with them and perhaps even feel that we have healed them mentally or emotionally. And yet the body may still be holding. Old protection. Tension. Fear. Control. Patterns of contraction. Through movement, breath, awareness and fascia-focused bodywork, we create space for the body to soften and release what words alone cannot always reach.

Hosts

Persefoni Aishwarya

Vietnam becomes more than a destination. It becomes the setting for a journey inward.

The Conscious Journey is an immersive retreat with Persefoni Aishwarya, created around a simple but powerful question: How much of the way we live is consciously chosen—and how much is simply repeated?

Through yoga, meditation, breath, movement and guided self-inquiry, each day explores a different layer of awareness. We begin by arriving in the body, observing our patterns and creating space between automatic reaction and conscious choice.

And then we take the practice into life.

Ancient temples, the lantern-lit streets of Hoi An, emerald rice fields, Vietnamese rituals, mountains and moments of stillness become part of the experience—not simply places to visit, but opportunities to observe, feel and reconnect.

The rhythm intentionally alternates between inner practice and outward exploration: movement and stillness, discovery and reflection, community and personal space.

Guided by Persefoni and held within the curated journey design of MYND Retreats, this is an invitation to step outside the speed of everyday life and return with something more valuable than memories:

greater awareness of how you want to live.
