Move in the Mystery ~ Live Music Latihan

This is a rare opportunity to get a glimpse of the magic we’ll be cultivating all weekend at Held in the Mystery: A Latihan Retreat.

We’ve invited incredible musicians Jade Fusco and Sam Bottner to weave a delicious live soundscape while we surrender into slowness, movement and the beauty of the mystery. This is our first live music Latihan EVER in Austin TX and we’d love to share it with you.

This event is for those who have some experience with the practice of Latihan.

We still have spaces for the full weekend retreat of luxury, nourishment and life and as Latihan. Get the details and register here.

Latihan is a blindfolded movement meditation in which we close our eyes and open to inner wisdom and the medicine of the mystery.

We wear blindfolds as a symbol of stepping into the unknown, though the truth is that every moment of our lives is an unfolding of the unknown.

We do this to practice:

✨ Embracing the mystery that is life

✨ S l o w i n g down + getting present

✨ Releasing attachment, aversion, + agenda

✨ Letting go of DOING in exchange for BEING

✨ Stepping outside of the identities that keep us stuck

✨ Exploring touch + learning to attune to others without the use of sight

✨ Noticing + communicating our boundaries

✨ Expressing our emotions

✨ Using ALL experiences (including triggers + uncomfortable moments) as material for expansion + self empowerment 

Latihan is sensual, embodied, contemplative and can actually be quite psychedelic (no substances necessary). We love how it offers a never ending and ever shifting kaleidoscope of lessons and exploration.

When you really GET this practice it supports you to ride the wild ride of life with more delight and less resistance. Yes please. 

While contact is not the point of Latihan, this experience can and does involve touch while blindfolded. Part of the exploration of Latihan is finding your YES and your NO, and taking full responsibility for communicating your boundaries at all times. Please know that this is an advanced level practice. 

If you have deep seated traumas, difficulty expressing boundaries, a tendency towards a freeze response, or an inability to down-regulate yourself please reach out to Julia at julia@moveinthemystery.com to discuss the details of the practice and if this is the right fit for you.
