What are the dates?
Deep Immersion Meditation and Inquiry Workshop
17th January - 23rd January 2026
This retreat will be a deep immersion into our practice. Unlike our workshops, there will be very little discussion of theory, and a lot of time spent experimenting, inquiring, meditating, and coming back into direct contact with the actual as opposed to the mental.
All times and activities are subject to change, but the schedule will be close to this (all times are in ET):
03:00-03:40 – Silent Sit for Europe (Guest Led)
09:00-09:40 Morning Sit (Lightly Guided)
10:00-11:00 Sofa Sit Talk About the Day’s Topic
11:30-12:30 Exercises and Moving Meditations/Inquiry
12:00-15:00 Lunch
14:00-14:40 – Silent Sit (Guest Led)
15:00-15:30 Breathwork and Sit
15:30-17:30 Story-Free Q&A
18:30-19:10 – Silent Sit (Guest Led)
20:00-21:00 Guided Meditation/Inquiry
Again, details are subject to change as we get closer because we like to keep things organic and alive, but the topics of the Sofa Sits, daily inquiries and meditations will likely be about the following:
Day 1 – Seeing Through the Self (Fetter 1)
Day 2 – Seeing Through Control and Agency (Fetter 1)
Day 3 – Dissolving Craving (Fetter 4)
Day 4 – Dissolving Aversion & Reactivity (Fetter 5)
Day 5 – Investigating Our Senses (Fetters 6/7)
Day 6 – Dismantling “Reality” (Fetters 6/7)
Day 7 – Anatta & Residing in Ambiguity (Fetters 8/9/10)
This should be a fun and transformative week for everyone involved! Of course it will be virtual, so you can interact as much or as little as you would like. But if you can, see if you can carve out a full week to immerse as deeply into your practice as possible. Take the time to prioritize this work.
Meditation and inquiry can have accumulating effects. This is why retreats can be so much more powerful than just a daily sitting practice. Every session and every day builds upon the last, integrating the insights, and deepening our concentration and relaxation. We are changing the way the system is functioning, at least for a week, but that change can have effects that ripple out in unexpected ways.
We are excited to share the time with you, and look forward to a period of deep exploration in a loving, supportive community.
See you there!
Note for our Neurodiverse Friends:
For those who have had difficulties meditating or participating in retreats in the past, we are fully open to you being you! If you need to stim or move during seated practice, it is absolutely okay!
This is about your practice and your experience. You are welcome to find and utilize whichever tools you need to employ to get the most out of it.
We are also here to help you discover what those tools are if you haven’t found them yet.
We are committed to making this is a safe and inclusive space for everyone!
Please reach out if you have any questions about this beforehand.

I am not past the Fetters,
can I still participate?
Absolutely! We will be discussing and working our way through all of the Fetters from the beginning.
No matter which Fetter you seem to be working with the most, you will likely discover that aspects of multiple, if not all the Fetters are in play at different times of different days.
Everyone is welcome, and hopefully everyone will discover new insights, regardless of how far along or how new to this work they feel they are.
We look forward to seeing you
Much love,
Todd & Pernille
See Through The Self Delusion Course
We are so happy that there is now a full course for you to see through the identification of the self!
This course is like a practical handbook of all of the different angles that you need to be aware of when you are investigating identification in your direct experience. We hope that it will be equally useful to people who are absolute beginners on this awakening path, as it will be to seasoned seekers who believe they have seen through the sense of self and are currently working with the higher fetters. We believe that everyone will find things in the course that will help them to deepen their insights regardless of whichever stage of awakening they feel they are in.
Take your time with this course! It is quite comprehensive. Through it we will be discussing many aspects of awakening, some of which tend to be overlooked by those on the path. We stress the importance of integrating awakening into our daily lives, so we spend a lot of time helping to bridge the gap between the spiritual world and the relative mundane one in which we all live.
In this course we will go into detail about meditation practices, discerning thought from “reality”, how to approach long-held trauma, how to investigate and manage our fear of death, practices to stimulate deep non-dual insights, and how to avoid many different pitfalls and egoic traps that you might encounter on the awakening path.
For those who are familiar with our The Awakening Curriculum and Unfettered Mindfulness YouTube channels, you might have already seen many of these videos. But they have been assembled in a practical sequence that allows progressive insights and practice, and they have been expanded with 50,000 words of written summaries, extrapolations, further inquiry and meditation practices, and more. It’s effectively like having a whole book integrated into the video material. Even if you have already watched the videos, we hope that these written lessons will help to deepen and expand your understanding of the material, and provide you new directions to take your practice.
To get the most out of this course, we recommend watching each video in sequence, and taking lots of time to actively do every inquiry at least once. It can help to do the same inquiry multiple times before moving on. It’s always recommended to rewatch lessons, if not immediately, then come back to them weeks or months later to see if you now hear something that you missed the first time, or that now makes sense to you in a way that you couldn’t access previously.
It should be emphasized, you might accumulate a lot of new concepts from this course, but that will be of comparatively little benefit next to the insights that you glean from putting everything you hear into practice.
You are likely here, doing this course, in order to experience some sort of transformation of experience. But concepts have limited ability to do this. At least not in terms of creating long-term transformation.
For that, you need to have an experiential understanding of what we are pointing to. So relax, settle in, take a deep breath, and allow the experience to unfold all on its own.
No one knows what will happen on the other side of any practice. So remain curious, open, and remember to have fun.
