Neurofeedback, a luminous bridge between the seen and unseen, calibrates your mind’s hidden frequencies, gently dissolving the imprints of anxiety, depression, and restless nights. Your mind sharpens, your emotions soften, and your soul finds peace.
In the profound silence, you encounter the vast temple of your core being. Silent retreat practices quiet the endless noise, allowing your true essence to rise like mist from a sacred spring.

A Place to Return to Yourself
Tucked within the quiet forest, our retreat home is more than a place to stay—it’s a sanctuary for softening, releasing, and remembering who you are beneath the noise. Here, the whisper of wind through pine branches and the gentle rhythm of a nearby brook create a natural stillness that welcomes deep rest.
You'll sleep in simple, thoughtfully prepared rooms—single or double, inside or out (glamping/teepee/ camping) in each shared space holding the intention of peace and presence. Bathrooms are communal, encouraging a rhythm of gentle co-existence. Fresh linens and soft towels are provided to help you travel light and arrive fully.
Our yoga practice unfolds beneath the sky, on a wooden deck nestled among towering trees. The earth beneath, the sounds of water, and the open air become part of your breath and movement. We encourage you to bring your favorite meditation cushions, if you’re able, we’ll have some available for those journeying from afar.
This retreat is more than an escape, it is a sacred threshold. A space to listen inward. To be still long enough to feel your truth again. To open to grace, connection, and the sacred pulse within all things. You are invited to step into this deep quiet and return renewed.

JULY 16–27 — Daily Rhythm of Awakening
Each day unfolds as a sacred offering, attuned to the rhythm of the soul and the promise of true presence. This retreat is not about doing more but becoming more you.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
JULY 16 — Arrival
We ask that you arrive and settle in by 5:00 PM on the 16th.
At 5:30 PM, we will gather for our opening orientation that gently ushers us into the retreat space. This shared beginning sets the tone for the journey ahead, aligning our energies and intentions as we step into presence together.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Morning
At 7:00 AM, we begin with a gentle entry into the day through neurofeedback and meditation. These sessions will start short and gradually deepen into continuous, immersive experiences, designed to rewire patterns and awaken presence. We will be there, guiding and holding the space energetically, helping you drop beneath surface noise into a direct experience of peace.
After a nourishing breakfast, we dive into a potent morning lecture from a carefully chosen teacher whose wisdom mirrors the day's theme. These teachings serve as gentle signposts—reminders that your awakening is not only possible but already unfolding.
At 11:00 AM, we step onto the mat for Hridaya Hatha Yoga, a meditative movement practice that opens the body and quiets the mind. We will move with you, demonstrating how we embody stillness in motion. The yoga flows effortlessly into a silent meditation, where your inner stillness deepens further.
Midday
Lunch at 1:00 PM is followed by time to rest, walk in nature, journal, or simply integrate. This retreat values integration as much as insight.
Afternoon
By 4:00 PM, we return to meditation and neurofeedback, refining awareness and gently illuminating what was once hidden. These sessions are designed to help you experience the depth of your consciousness, not as a concept, but as a living truth.
Evening
Dinner at 7:00 PM is followed by our evening spiritual discourse and Q&A, a treasured part of our day. Each night, we will offer a heart-centered talk, weaving ancient wisdom and modern insight into the themes that most stir your soul. This is a time to ask, to share, and to receive. It’s in these circles that we break through.
We close each evening with a guided meditation at 8:30 PM, entering sleep in peace, connected to the most profound truth within.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
JULY 27 — Departure
On our final morning, we say goodbye to each other and to the version of ourselves we no longer need. Checkout is available late at night on the 27th or in the morning of the 28th.

We've designed this space for seekers like you, and we will walk alongside you, guiding, supporting, listening, and witnessing.

Retreat Leaders
Sitara Van Block M.A. L.M.T
I have practiced as a transpersonal psychologist, yoga teacher, and educator with over 30 years of experience guiding individuals through transformative experiences. My journey has been shaped by my upbringing in a Sufi community and two years spent in a Sivananda ashram diving deeply into the paths of the mystics and honoring enlightened beings of all paths.
My work blends transpersonal psychology, somatic therapy, meditation, and energy healing, drawing from my training with spiritual teachers and indigenous healers from around the globe. As the founder of various educational and healing initiatives, including a Waldorf-inspired charter school and international transpersonal psychology programs, I am committed to fostering conscious communication and deep healing.
I've had the privilege of teaching at universities and leading retreats worldwide, where I've developed innovative models for sustainable community development and human potential. My true passion lies in merging ancient wisdom with modern therapeutic practices, empowering individuals to release limiting beliefs and align with their highest selves.
It has been an honor to make a meaningful impact on diverse communities, helping people awaken to their fullest potential and embrace their unique journeys.
LoriGrace Kochevar M.S. L.P.C.
Welcome! I enjoy exploring all things spiritual, immersing myself in mystical experiences that have shaped my understanding of life. My passion for quantum physics has enticed me to delve into the intersections of science and spirituality, revealing how they beautifully intertwine to lead us to each other.
Early in my career as a therapist/transitional specialist, I realized I only wanted to offer transformative experiences with long-lasting results.
My path deepened when I adopted my two children, sparking my interest in family systems and how they interact with larger networks. This experience informed my understanding of trauma and attachment, as well as how different people learn.
Mama bear energy led me to dig deep to discover fast, safe ways to produce long-lasting change for myself, my family, and my clients. We found that quality of life changes occurred by calming the nervous system & creating cohesive connectivity in the brain/body.
This journey has brought me to peak moments that athletes call "The Zone" and spiritual seekers call the "Still Point," a place of unfolding and embracing life. I am thrilled to invite you to my newest venture, Dragonfly Ranch, to explore the mysteries of life with me.

Join Us On a Deep Spiritual Dive
Step away from the noise of daily life and immerse yourself in the transformative beauty of Colorado’s wild landscapes. Our 10-day, nature-based silent retreat with neurofeedback offers a sanctuary for your mind, body, and spirit, designed to help you reconnect with your true self and the natural world around you, while also providing a neurological reset for home with you.
Imagine a Journey Where...
Amidst the silence of ancient mountains and the wisdom of whispering pines, you are guided into the sacred space of deep inner restoration. For ten days, you are held in a container woven with the golden threads of science and mysticism, where each breath, each moment, draws you closer to your original wholeness.
Neurofeedback, a luminous bridge between the seen and unseen, calibrates your mind’s hidden frequencies, gently dissolving the imprints of anxiety, depression, and restless nights. Your mind sharpens, your emotions soften, and your soul finds peace.
In the profound silence, you encounter the vast temple of your core being. Silent retreat practices quiet the endless noise, allowing your true essence to rise like mist from a sacred spring. Stress melts away. Clarity dawns. Emotional wounds begin to knit themselves whole.
As you move through each day, yoga and breathwork awaken your body’s ancient wisdom. Flexibility returns not only to your limbs but to your spirit. Through movement and stillness, you reclaim your natural rhythm, your vitality, your joy.
Guided talks on the mystics—sages who walked between worlds — ignite your heart with the flame of timeless wisdom. Their stories become mirrors, reflecting the divine spark within you and awakening a deep remembrance of who you truly are.
Every Element of This Retreat is Designed To:
Regulate your nervous system for profound relaxation and improved rejuvenation
Expand your cognitive clarity, focus, and emotional resilience
Heal emotional wounds and release layers of accumulated stress
Awaken your spiritual connection and renew your sense of purpose
Empower you with tools and practices for lasting transformation beyond these sacred ten days

NEUROFEEDBACK RESULTS
"I am a stronger, wiser, calmer, and more peaceful person, which significantly positively affects my business and personal relationships and productivity. I wholeheartedly recommend this process for any family/team who want to take their relationships and performance up a notch.”
"I am deeply aware of my feelings and my levels of consciousness throughout the day, and I know that I have never been as positive or “high” as I am now. Peace is coming from a deep place within. I return quickly to equanimity from any disturbances.”
“I am enjoying a new sense of groundedness and calmness. I experienced a profound sense of stillness towards the end of the program that lasted. I know the training continues to impact my state of being positive.”

We are expecting a full house with this retreat and have limited parking so it is very important that we coordinate carpooling or alternative places to pick you up.
For people coming from out of town, we can make this very easy for you: from Denver International Airport, take the AB bus to BOULDER downtown station. Then, it is a gorgeous bus ride up the canyon to NEDERLAND. We will meet you in Nederland at designated times to pick you up.

How will this upgrade my neurobiology?
Neurofeedback is a non-invasive brain training method that helps the brain self-correct by providing real-time feedback on its activity, prompting it to reorganize and return to a more balanced, efficient state.This gentle process supports the brain’s natural ability to reset, often resulting in improved emotional regulation, mental clarity, and resilience.
