Radical Silence is different…

Customized to Your Needs

We will customize the retreat to match your specific dietary restrictions, injuries, and pre-existing conditions. We take into account everyone’s meditation and yoga experience to match the instruction to your needs. If you’ve been nervous to try a meditation retreat (or failed out of Vipassana) this customized experience may be what you’ve been looking for.

No Dogma & No Gurus

We welcome people of all beliefs and non-believers too. There is no dogma taught and no gurus to follow here.

Transformation with a Trans Woman

This retreat centers the Feminine and is taught by Queer Women. Humans of all genders and sexualities are welcome to attend.

3 Days of Silent Reflection

Meditation with Mylee

Mylee Blake will lead 30-minute and 50-minute meditations. You can expect guided meditations and breath work that support transformation, embodiment, and energetic release.   

Supported Silence

After you’ve had an evening to settle in, you will stop talking to give your inner Self a chance to be heard. You will also give up your screens for three days of unplugged recharging. Reading & journaling ARE allowed.

Detoxifying Meals

Many of our vegetables and herbs have detoxifying effects to complement the release of the retreat. Each day includes vegetable broth, mung bean dal, roasted veggies, superfood salads, and fruit. Tea and coffee are served.

On the days when we are not silent, we will be enjoying the best restaurants in Crete.

Yoga with Jazmin

Jazmin Hupp will guide two movement classes each silent day. In the morning, you’ll experience a short Kundalini Yoga set to energize you for meditation. In the afternoon, you will practice relaxing into long stretches with two hours of Yin Yoga. We can adapt these yoga classes to prior injuries and conditions.

Accommodations

We have booked a villa on the west side of Crete with 8 bedrooms.

Travel to Crete

We’ll share flight booking details soon.

We will provide airport transportation on the arrival and departure day of the retreat.

 

Meet Your Meditation Guide Mylee Blake

Mylee started meditating as a teenager, as a way to move through the energy of being trans. After high school, she was named the youngest VP at Dave & Buster’s (still as a teenager) and then quit after burning out.

Mylee’s love of transformative experiences led her to an undergraduate and graduate degree in film from Columbia. She has produced over a $1 billion dollars in feature films and commercials. Mylee also has created immersive participatory audience experiences for the past 2 decades.

Today, Mylee inspires trans women and their allies at TransSiren.com. You can follow her journey on Instagram @MyleeBlake.

The Radical Silence retreat hosted by Jazmin & Mylee was the medicine I needed for my Soul. The accommodation felt homey, I was welcomed by a symphony of birds, felt peace settling in by morning. The cook/magician Jazmin nourished us all with fresh plant-based ingredients…beyond expectations.

Mylee gifted us breath work that was just the right balance for experienced and novice levels. The cloud of aimless thoughts produced by this mind were consumed by the fire with gusto.

I arrived with a giant rock carrying on my shoulders and left carrying a feather.
