Nexus Essentia: A Heartfelt Thank You from Tarun

Nexus Essentia: A Journey into the Heart of Being


Dear Friends of Transcending Matters,


Namaste. Words seem inadequate to express the profound gratitude I feel for each and every one of you who joined us for the inaugural Nexus Essentia retreat at Studio Wayne McGregor on October 27th. It was a day of transformation, connection, and deep inner exploration, a journey into the heart of what it means to be truly alive. The energy within the sold-out venue was electric, a testament to the collective intention we set to unlock our hidden potential and embrace the power of our true essence.


Returning to London to share this powerful experience with you all, especially on the auspicious day of Ekadashi, filled me with a deep sense of purpose and joy. Witnessing the room brimming with eager faces, ready to embark on this inner journey, was truly inspiring.


The Dawn of Intentional Living: Cultivating Joy as a Way of Being

We began our day by delving into the transformative power of intentional thinking. We explored how our thoughts, like seeds, have the potential to blossom into the reality we experience. By consciously choosing to focus on positivity, gratitude, and love, we cultivate the fertile ground for joy to flourish. We discussed the science behind positive psychology, highlighting the profound impact of a joyful mindset on our physical health, emotional well-being, and resilience in the face of life's inevitable challenges. The air crackled with insightful conversations as we shared personal experiences and explored practical strategies for cultivating joy as a way of being.


Embodied Awakening: Kemetic Yoga and the Flow of Qi

From the realm of the mind, we transitioned into the wisdom of the body with the graceful practice of Kemetic Yoga. This ancient Egyptian tradition, steeped in history and wisdom, guided us through a series of controlled postures and deep breathing exercises. With each mindful movement, we connected more deeply with the innate intelligence of our physical form, cultivating a sense of presence, alignment, and inner peace. The flowing sequences and rhythmic breathwork prepared us for the subtle yet powerful practice of Qi Gong.


Qi Gong, the ancient Chinese art of cultivating vital energy, invited us to explore the energetic dimension of our being. Through gentle movements, focused intention, and deep breathing, we awakened the flow of Qi within, releasing stagnant energy, improving circulation, and enhancing our overall vitality. The combined practices of Kemetic Yoga and Qi Gong created a powerful synergy, preparing us for the deeper inner work that lay ahead.


Sacred Sustenance: Honouring Ekadashi with a Fasting Feast

Recognizing the significance of Ekadashi, a sacred day of fasting, we provided a specially prepared meal designed to nourish and detoxify the body. This traditional Ayurvedic feast, rich in sattvic qualities, was a testament to the power of food as medicine. The vibrant colours, fragrant aromas, and delicate flavours delighted the senses, while the balanced nutrients provided deep nourishment on both physical and energetic levels. Sharing this meal together fostered a sense of community and deepened our connection to the sacredness of the day, aligning our systems for optimal efficiency in the days to come.


Navigating the Inner Landscape: The NLP Workshop and the Map of Consciousness

The afternoon session delved into the transformative potential of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP). We explored the "Map of Consciousness," a powerful model that illuminates the spectrum of human experience, from the depths of misery to the heights of enlightenment. We focused specifically on the energy of misery, examining its relationship to negative thought patterns, limiting beliefs, and self-sabotaging behaviours. We discussed how "evil thinking," characterized by judgment, criticism, blame, and resentment, can trap us in a cycle of negativity and suffering. Through interactive exercises and insightful discussions, we learned practical tools and techniques to identify and reprogram these negative patterns, empowering ourselves to shift our consciousness towards greater positivity, empowerment, and joy.


A Cosmic Symphony: The 38" Subtonic Gong Bath and Tibetan Sound Bowl Healing

As dusk settled, we gathered for the culminating experience of the day: a combined 38" subtonic gong bath and Tibetan sound bowl healing session. Amplified through the in-house PA system, the resonant vibrations of the gong and bowls filled the space, creating a truly otherworldly experience. The sound waves washed over us, dissolving the boundaries of the room and transporting us to a realm of pure loving and healing vibrations. It was as if the very air shimmered with transformative energy, facilitating a profound shift in consciousness. The room seemed to dissolve, replaced by an expansive sense of interconnectedness, as if our individual souls traversed the bridge between the physical and the conscious realms, merging into the universal harmony. We were bathed in a cosmic symphony of sound, a sonic tapestry woven with ancient wisdom and healing frequencies. Many participants described this experience as deeply moving and transformative, leaving them feeling profoundly relaxed, renewed, and connected to their core essence.



Looking Ahead: Expanding the Nexus Essentia Experience

The overwhelming success of this inaugural Nexus Essentia retreat, coupled with the heartfelt feedback we've received, has inspired us to expand the event in the future. We envision transforming Nexus Essentia into a two-day weekend immersion, providing even more time for deep exploration, integration, and connection. This expanded format will offer opportunities for extended practices, individual reflection, group sharing, and connection with nature. We are excited about the potential of this evolution and look forward to sharing more details soon.


Stay Connected: Future Dates and Booking Information

As we continue to evolve and expand our offerings, we encourage you to stay connected with us through our website and social media channels. We will be announcing future Nexus Essentia retreat dates and other Transcending Matters events soon. Given the high demand and the rapid sell-out of this inaugural event, we recommend booking early to secure your place.

Thank you again, from the depths of my heart, for being a part of this transformative journey. It is an honour and a privilege to walk alongside you on this path of self-discovery and empowerment.


With deepest gratitude,

Tarun Hari Das Founder, Transcending Matters
