01
Rest
The first day is recovery. Most people arrive depleted without realising. The schedule gives the nervous system time to drop.
Retreats
Rest. Release. Reconnect.
The retreat is the deepest version of the practice and the shortest distance to it.
The practice
What is a retreat with Natalia?
Four days. A property in Mudgee. Eight to twelve people.
Each day includes Rounding (a combination of Vedic meditation, gentle yoga stretches and breathwork). The format dissolves stress the body has been holding for months, sometimes years.
Outside the practice: freshly prepared Ayurvedic meals, massage, time in the sauna, jacuzzi and pool, knowledge talks by the fire, real stars at night.
What to expect
Three things, in order.
02
Release
Rounding dissolves the layers underneath. Stress the body has been compensating for, often for years. Most participants describe it as the first time their body and mind have been still at the same time.
03
Reconnect
What comes back is clarity. To yourself, to the people around you, to what actually matters. This part is hard to describe and easy to recognise once you have felt it.

What past participants say
I attended one of Natalia’s exclusive Rounding Retreats and it was incredible. The power of this technique just blows my mind, and Natalia’s facilitation and care of each of us was outstanding. This is a must do for anyone wanting real transformation with an amazing teacher. 10/10 for me. Will definitely be attending again.

Your host
Natalia.
Natalia is a certified Vedic Meditation teacher trained in the full tradition. Over the past three years she has co-facilitated multiple Rounding retreats and refined how she holds the space.
Her approach is precise without being clinical. Warm without being effusive. The result is a retreat that runs smoothly enough for you to forget the logistics and focus on the practice.
Frequently asked
Common questions.
Who can attend a retreat?
Anyone. If you have already learned Vedic Meditation, you will go deeper into Rounding. If you have not, you can learn the technique during the retreat itself.
Do I need yoga experience?
No. The asanas used in Rounding are gentle and accessible. Natalia guides every step.
What is Rounding?
A sequence that combines yoga postures, pranayama, and extended meditation. The effect is unlike anything you reach in solo sitting alone. Most participants describe it as the first time their body and mind have been still at the same time.
What if I feel overwhelmed during the retreat?
Some emotional release is normal as the nervous system unwinds. Natalia is trained to support you through it. The pace is always adjusted to the individual.
