Ready to Fall in Love with Sound?

Anandra has led nearly 100 retreats in her 25 year career! Each of our retreats are a deeply transformative immersion into the Heart of Sound, and they KEEP GETTING BETTER!

In retreat, we come together in community simply to drench our souls in the rejuvenating practices, in some of the most inspiring places on Earth.

A Heart of Sound retreat is for you if...

🌟 you've forgotten what it feels like to be perfectly tuned and in a good rhythmic flow

🌟 you want to reconnect with your love of sound, music, mantra and singing for your pleasure (not for anyone else)

🌟 you want to lean into play, spaciousness, rest, and drink in the healing power of nature in her glorious abundance

🌟 sound and mantra is your happy place, and you want to saturate in it with kindred spirits

🌟 you crave a space and time for yourself to listen deeply to your heart, to hear clearly what Life wants to live through you

🌟 you love chanting but get cringy around cultish dogma, dull unskillful mantra... you're ready for the FULL TRANSFORMATIVE POWER of sound 🔥

🌟 you feel the pull towards sharpening your vocal healing and mantra toolkit so you can affect transformation in your life & for others

🌟 you yearn for a community where you can be all of you, feel the full spectrum of being alive, and be embraced

JOIN US ON OUR NEXT RETREAT!

"For several years, I have been feeling kind of numb. Nothing I was doing seemed to break through. But chanting with you, I feel fully alive again. I'm so glad to have the Heart of Sound in my life!"

"Thank you so much for a magical week of life-changing sound practices! This was the breakthrough I needed most and I’m not sure I would’ve been able to get through it if it weren’t for your encouragement. Thank you for helping me learn to trust this sound-based yoga practice and Tantrik path… I now know how to guide myself back home."

Chant Retreat Goals

Our "Retreat into the Heart of Sound" experiences are offered worldwide by Anandra and Heart of Sound graduates. While our priority during retreat is to provide you with an invitation to our profound chanting practices (and you're welcome to skip study session times if you're simply on retreat) your "inner nerd" will also enjoy our innovative approaches to meeting the multiple learning objectives below:

Communion

Find your heart's voice and sing in our daily devotional mantra and music sessions!

You'll experience sound as a vibrant connection to Self, and understand how it transforms all aspects of your being.

Empowerment

Learn sound-based yoga skills to begin, refine, or enrich your home chanting practice!

You'll gain a basic foundation in Sanskrit mantra pronunciation (if you engage the included Sanskrit 101 course).

Rejuvenation

Listen to what's deeply alive in you as you tune your precious body instrument.

You'll practice tools for self-regulating your nervous system for physical, emotional, and mental health.

Experience the Full Power of Sound Healing Yoga:

  • Awaken your Sanskrit mantra chanting with the living vibrations of each alphabet sound and more precise, refined pronunciation
  • Connect with the Tantrik, non-dual philosophy of the Sanskrit alphabet as a language of conscious creation
  • Explore the tones of Indian music (Sa, Re, Ga, etc.) and enjoy Indian rāga-based devotional songs
  • Use the creative power of mantra to master your mind, transform old habits, and illuminate new potentials for your life
  • Empower yourself with yoga of sound tools to maintain and deepen connection in your daily life
  • Get everything you need to create a home chant practice
