**Un Viaggio di 3 Notti verso la Presenza, la Chiarezza e la Connessione Interiore.** Questo ritiro è un invito a rallentare, respirare e tornare a te stesso. Svolto in un ambiente tranquillo immerso nella natura vicio a Roma, questo ritiro di evoluzione interiore di 3 notti offre uno spazio sicuro e accogliente per l’esplorazione interiore, l’integrazione emotiva e una riconnessione significativa. È pensato per chi sente il bisogno di fermarsi, ascoltare dentro di sé e riallinearsi con ciò che conta davvero. Il nostro lavoro si basa sul Metodo di EVOLUZIONE INTERIORE — un processo gentile ma profondo che combina consapevolezza emotiva, pratiche incarnate, auto-indagine, presenza relazionale e integrazione guidata. Sono disponibili strumenti ancestrale opzionali, ma non sono mai al centro. Il cuore del ritiro è lo spazio che creiamo insieme, dove chiarezza e comprensione possono emergere in modo naturale. Invece di cercare risposte all’esterno, questo ritiro ti accompagna a riconnetterti con la tua intelligenza interiore, permettendo che comprensione, liberazione e direzione nascano da dentro. Questa esperienza è per chiunque si senta chiamato a uscire dal rumore della vita quotidiana e a immergersi in pochi giorni di semplicità, onestà e contatto autentico — con sé stesso, con gli altri e con la natura. **La prenotazione include:** • Alloggio e pensione completa, con opzione vegana o vegetariana. • La partecipazione ai laboratori di approfondimento con i nostri facilitatori, che servono anche come preparazione prima della sessione notturna. • Le integrazioni di gruppo del mattino per condividere l’esperienza o ampliare la comprensione di ciò che sta accadendo nel tuo processo. • Una sessione con strumenti ancestrali ogni notte di ritiro (se vuoi farne più di una durante il giorno di ritiro, si considera come una sessione aggiuntiva) con l’accompagnamento della nostra equipe di facilitatori. • Appoggio prima, durante e dopo il ritiro • Sessione integrativa online post ritiro. **Informazioni in breve:** Per info sull’evento per favore contattaci direttamente ai riferimenti qui sotto 🙏 * **Data dell’evento:** 26 - 29 marzo 2026 📞 **Contatti:** +39 327 540 8329 (WhatsApp)

The event is scheduled for **6:30 PM local Italian time**. The platform does not allow us to change the time zone, so we can only create events with the GMT time, thus you will see the invitation for 7:30 PM, but you definitely want to come earlier. It's a relaxed evening at The O'Connell Irish Pub, and run by Volodymyr. We have been running for 3.5 years in London and we are excited to now run our monthly events in Milan as well, welcoming new folks to the community. Whether you're a tech founder, an enthusiast, a budding entrepreneur, or simply curious about the tech scene, you'll fit right in. This isn't about panels or pitching, just good old-fashioned networking with like-minded people over a drink on a Thursday evening. Important information about the location and time. **It is in the ZTL zone**, so please do not come by car. Please use public transport or walk. **House Rules:** * Find Volodymyr to introduce yourself so we can welcome you properly. The pub knows we are coming, so you should be able to find us easily. * No hard selling or heavy pitching. This is a chill, friendly after-work get-together. * Not drinking? No worries! You're more than welcome to come hang out and enjoy the conversation. Mark your calendar and come down for some fun tech talk. See you there!
