Light Within: A Spring Renewal Retreat
Awaken clarity and new beginnings in the heart of nature
- Mohanji Centre of Benevolence, Walpole WA
- 10th - 12th October 2025
Awaken the Season of Renewal
There are times in life when change calls gently — when we feel the need to shed old layers and step into fresh beginnings.
Spring is such a season: nature blossoms, light lengthens, and energy shifts toward growth. This retreat harnesses that natural rhythm to help you release what no longer serves and awaken the clarity already within.
Join us for Light Within, a spring weekend retreat immersed in meditation, conscious practices, and the sacred stillness of the Mohanji Centre of Benevolence in Walpole. Surrounded by forests and wetlands, you are invited to pause, reset, and step into the light of your own renewal.
What Will I Experience?
Across the weekend, you’ll be gently led through practices that balance reflection with renewal. Each experience is designed to leave you feeling lighter, clearer, and reconnected.
You can expect:
Morning Yoga & Breathwork
gentle traditional yoga and conscious breathing to awaken energy and release tension
Guided Meditations & Silent Reflection
practices that bring stillness and clarity, with spacious time for journaling or walking in silence
Conscious Dancing
A joyful movement practice to shake off heaviness and awaken the freshness of spring within.
Sacred Fire Ceremony (Havan)
an evening ritual of release, where you write down and symbolically offer what you wish to let go of into the flames
Nature Immersion
conscious walking through Walpole’s forests and wetlands, connecting with the rhythms of spring
Community & Nourishment
shared vegan meals, conversations around the table, and quiet evenings under the stars
This is not a retreat filled with lectures or tasks. It is an immersive space where you can breathe deeply, let go of what weighs you down, and step into the season of renewal with lightness.
Who Is This For?
This retreat welcomes people from all paths of life. You may find yourself drawn here if you:
- Feel stressed, restless, or mentally overloaded and need a reset
- Are at a crossroads or moving through transition and seek clarity
- Long for genuine stillness without dogma or complexity
- Wish to reconnect with your own breath and body in a gentle way
- Are seeking to release emotional weight and start afresh

No previous retreat or spiritual experience is needed. The space is designed to be accessible, supportive, and inclusive for beginners as well as seasoned practitioners.

The Space
The Mohanji Centre of Benevolence, Walpole, is not just a venue — it is a living sanctuary. Nestled between vast forests and wetlands, it carries a vibration of stillness and sacredness that is felt immediately on arrival.
Created under Mohanji’s guidance, the Centre is intentionally energised to support deep inner transformation. The environment itself becomes a silent teacher: the quiet rustle of trees, the call of birds, the unhurried rhythm of nature.
Here, you are not only held by the program, but by the land itself — a land that restores, nurtures, and reminds you of your own inner silence.
Your Stay
At MCB, simplicity is sacred.
- Eco Chalets – You’ll stay in warm, shared chalets nestled among the trees, simple yet cared for with intention. Each room offers comfort, rest, and the stillness needed to truly unplug.
- Wholesome Vegan Meals – Freshly prepared meals are served daily, nourishing both body and spirit. Herbal teas and quiet nooks are available throughout the day for reflection or rest.
- Living Companions – Cows, dogs, chickens, guinea fowls, peacocks, sheep, and kangaroos freely share this land. Their presence brings an added depth to the experience — reminding us of harmony beyond words.
