Flow State Retreat 2026
Five Days to Come Back to Yourself
A retreat for people who live with a quiet, persistent sense that there’s more.
This retreat is designed for people who sense that beneath the roles they play and the lives they manage, there is a truer version of themselves waiting to be lived from.
Over five spacious days, you are invited to slow down enough to listen. Not just to the parts of yourself that feel put together or capable, but to the feelings that often get pushed aside.
Uncertainty. Vulnerability. Restlessness. Grief. Longing.
These moments of discomfort are not here to be fixed. They carry information. When you stay with them long enough, something begins to shift. Perspective widens. Tension eases. Clarity starts to emerge.
Much of how we move through life is shaped by stories about who we think we need to be in order to belong, succeed, or feel safe. Over time, those stories can feel heavy and limiting.
This retreat gently supports you to loosen those stories and reconnect with what feels most true for you now.
Through daily practices of breathwork, meditation, kundalini yoga, Somatic Experiencing, nervous system regulation, reflection, and deep rest, your system has the chance to settle. From that place, insight comes naturally. Not as something forced or manufactured, but as something felt and known.
This work is not about forcing a better version of yourself.
It is about reconnecting with your truest self, the one that already carries clarity, wisdom, and inner steadiness.
Bingin Retreat is a private, self-contained property set in the heart of Bingin, just a short walk from the beach. For the duration of our retreat, the entire property is reserved exclusively for our group.
The space is made up of bungalow-style shalas arranged around a central pool and garden. Each shala contains two private bedrooms with a shared bathroom between them, offering personal space alongside a gentle sense of togetherness, without communal living.
We’ll have sole access to the open-air yoga shala, along with quiet corners and shaded areas to rest, reflect, or simply be. With no outside guests, the property feels held, calm, and uninterrupted.
It’s a place designed to support presence. Nothing to navigate, nowhere to rush to. Just enough comfort, space, and privacy to let you settle, listen inward, and come back to yourself.

The Setting
Who This Retreat Is For
This retreat is for you if you recognise yourself in any of this.
-
You live with a sense that there is more available to you, even if you cannot quite name what that is yet.
-
You feel tired of holding it all together, performing, or meeting expectations that no longer fit.
-
You want depth and honesty, without drama or needing to be someone you are not.
-
You are ready to slow down and listen to yourself, rather than keep searching outside for answers.
-
You feel drawn to reconnect with yourself in a quieter, more grounded, more truthful way.
You do not need to have it all figured out.
You just need to be willing to arrive as you are.
Why five days
Because real settling takes time.
Five days allows your nervous system to let go of constant vigilance.
It allows your body to catch up.
It creates space for insight to arrive without being forced.
This is where flow becomes something lived, not chased.
What you will leave with
A clearer sense of yourself.
More space inside your body and mind.
Greater trust in your own inner guidance.
And a felt understanding of how to live from that place once you return home.

This retreat is co facilitated by Cassandra Varga (Tormey) and Damian Murdoch, long time friends who have taken different paths through life, yet arrived in the same place.
Cassandra brings over three decades of experience working with people through periods of transition, growth, and change. Her background spans kundalini yoga, meditation, breathwork, Yoga Nidra, functional nutrition, and Somatic Experiencing informed practices. Her work is grounded in nervous system awareness, embodiment, and supporting people to reconnect with their inner clarity and capacity, both personally and professionally.
Damian brings a depth of experience in breathwork, coaching, facilitation, and human connection, with a strong focus on emotional honesty, personal responsibility, and what it means to live well in the real world. His work is practical, relational, and deeply human, supporting people to move beyond old patterns and show up more fully in their lives and relationships.
Having known each other since their teenage years, Cassandra and Damian bring a rare ease and trust into the space they hold together. Their shared history, combined with complementary skill sets, creates an environment that is warm, grounded, and deeply respectful of each person’s individual process.
The retreat is shaped by both of their lived experience and professional practice, offering guidance that is embodied, thoughtful, and attuned, rather than prescriptive or performative.
Co Facilitation
What You Will Experience
Each day we move at a different pace, slower, steadier, more intentional.
Through guided practices including breathwork, meditation, movement, nervous system regulation, reflection, and deep rest, we create the conditions for real inner listening. The kind that only emerges when the noise quietens.
When you stop running. Stop fixing. Stop hustling. And let yourself stay with what’s here, even when it feels unfamiliar or uncomfortable.
From this place, clarity doesn’t need to be chased. It arises naturally. Not as answers handed to you, but as something felt, known, and embodied.
1
Movement & Presence
Daily kundalini yoga, gentle movement, breathwork, and meditation designed to bring you back into your body and into the present moment. These practices support energy, clarity, and a deeper sense of being at home in yourself, rather than pushing or performing.
2
Breakthrough Breathwork
Guided breakthrough breathwork sessions that support emotional release, insight, and reconnection with deeper parts of yourself. This work creates space for old patterns to loosen and for a more honest, embodied sense of self to emerge.
3
Nervous System Support and Deep Rest
Somatic Experiencing, Yoga Nidra, and nervous system regulation practices woven throughout the retreat to help your system settle. This is where the body softens, the mind quietens, and integration happens naturally rather than being forced.
4
Wisdom Teachings, Reflection, & Integration
Wisdom teachings offered gently throughout the retreat, alongside guided reflection and spacious integration time. These teachings help contextualise your experiences, support deeper understanding, and invite insight to land in a way that feels relevant, grounded, and lived.
5
Connection Without Pressure
A small, intimate group environment that offers genuine connection without expectation or performance. Time together is balanced with time alone, allowing you to engage at a pace that feels right for you.
6
Nourishment and Care
All inclusive meals prepared with care to support energy, digestion, and overall wellbeing, alongside thoughtful comforts that help you feel held and supported throughout your stay.
A 6 day/5 night immersion.
This is not just a break. It’s a reset. It’s a chance to put yourself first, not just for a
few moments, but for an experience that stays with you long after you return home.
Flow State is intentionally designed as a journey rather than a series of standalone experiences. Each day builds on the one before it, beginning with arrival and nervous system safety, then gradually opening awareness, embodiment, and inner trust. As the retreat unfolds, practices deepen and integrate, supporting a shift from doing and managing life, to inhabiting it more fully. By the final days, many people notice they feel more grounded, present, and connected to themselves, not because anything has been added, but because what was already there has had space to come forward.
Mornings
Laying the foundations
Mornings are where the groundwork is laid. Each day begins with practices that support arrival, grounding, and nervous system safety, before gradually building capacity and awareness as the retreat unfolds.
Through morning sadhana, kundalini kriya, meditation, breathwork, and somatic practices, the body and mind are gently prepared for deeper listening. The focus shifts over the days from settling and stabilising, to opening the heart, strengthening inner resources, and reconnecting with a felt sense of trust and vitality.
These sessions are intentionally sequenced so that each morning builds on the one before it, allowing awareness and embodiment to grow naturally rather than being rushed.
Afternoons
Integration and exploration
Afternoons are designed to support integration. This is where what has been stirred in the mornings has time to land, make sense, and be felt more fully.
Guided sessions may include reflective practices, somatic exploration, group sharing, journalling, or gentle inquiry, alongside generous space for rest, massage or spa treatments, and unstructured time.
As the days progress, afternoons invite deeper honesty and self connection, supporting participants to explore old patterns, reconnect with pleasure and ease, and recognise what feels aligned and true for them now.
Evenings
Settling and embodiment
Evenings are about settling everything back into the body. Practices such as Yoga Nidra, nervous system regulation, somatic integration, mantra, and meditation support deep rest and assimilation.
Each evening gently closes the day, allowing insights to move from thought into felt experience. Over the course of the retreat, these sessions support a growing sense of inner steadiness, clarity, and embodiment.
By the final evenings, many people notice they are no longer trying to arrive. They are already there, present, grounded, and living from a quieter, more connected place within themselves.
