A half-day retreat with Adwiti
Heart of
Stillness
A soulful afternoon of qigong, sound healing, and stillness.
Immerse yourself in a nourishing half-day retreat and gently move into the Heart of Stillness with qigong, meditation, and a deeply relaxing Himalayan sound bath.
Heart of Stillness is four hours to disconnect from the noise of everyday life and reconnect with what's underneath it — the part of you that already knows how to soften without collapsing, how to receive without earning, how to trust without guarantees.
You've been holding it all together for so long that you may not even realize how tired you are. Your jaw is tight. Your body is tense. You keep pushing because that's what you've always done.
And maybe this is your invitation to stop for a moment.
The cool, thirst-quenching well of silence exists in the heart of stillness within you. This is where you drink from, where you fill your cup, and where you nourish yourself.
We move through four gates
First gate
Softness
Qigong to release the bracing patterns
Gentle, guided movement to unwind the tension you've mistaken for strength — the tight jaw, the shallow breath, the body that's forgotten how to stand down.
From here, we begin to explore stillness itself: not as the absence of movement, but as a practice your body can learn to return to, long after the retreat ends.
Second gate
Receiving
Himalayan sound healing
The room fills with the resonance of Himalayan singing bowls, each frequency inviting your nervous system to soften without having to do anything at all. You don't have to earn this. You just have to let it reach you.
A quiet journaling space follows, giving whatever surfaced somewhere to land before we come back together.
Third gate
Trust
Silence & integration circle
The quiet after the last bowl fades. A simple circle where one witnessed word is enough — no performance, no polish required.
Fourth gate
The Body
Coming home to yourself
The final gate is you: holding it all, walking out different. Not fixed. Just felt.
No experience needed.
Just willingness to show up and stop performing.

Adwiti Subba Haffner
Adwiti was raised in the foothills of the Himalayas, in Darjeeling, where stillness was never a technique. It was just how the mountains taught you to live.
She carried that inheritance into hypnotherapy, sound healing, and somatic qigong, and built the Trillium System™ from a simple discovery: the way home isn't through more effort. It's through remembering what your body never forgot.
I can't wait to hold this space with you.
What to bring
Nothing to prepare, fix, or figure out. Just a few things to make the floor comfortable and the sound easy to receive.
- Journal or notebook, and a pen
- Yoga mat
- A washcloth or eye mask, for the sound healing portion
- A cushion or small pillow, if sitting on the floor isn't comfortable for you
- A blanket, if you'd like extra warmth or comfort during the sound healing
- Water bottle
- An open mind and an open heart
A few things you might be wondering
I've never done qigong or sound healing before. Is that okay?
Yes. No experience is needed for any part of this retreat, only willingness.
I have an injury or physical limitation. Can I still participate?
Yes. All movement is gentle and can be modified. If you have specific concerns, feel free to reach out before the retreat.
What if I need to leave early or step out during the retreat?
During most of the retreat you're welcome to step out if you need to. The one exception is the sound healing portion — once it begins, we ask everyone to stay in the room until it's complete, so the experience isn't disturbed for others.
Is this retreat religious or affiliated with a specific spiritual practice?
No. Heart of Stillness draws from qigong and Himalayan sound healing traditions, but it isn't tied to any religion. All are welcome.
There will be another
Heart of Stillness is held a few times a year, kept small each time. Be first to know when the next one opens.
