The Emerging Self:
An Immersion into the Soul
A transformative long weekend retreat on the sacred Etruscan lands of Mount Cimino during the Autumn Harvest.
Hosted by Timothy Harper (temenoshealing.org)
& Amber Green (hutriver.org)
Friday 23rd October 2026 – Monday 26th October 2026
Soriano nel Cimino (VT), Italy
The Convergence
This is a contemplative immersion where you will be guided into spaces of introspection so that the stories of your Soul can emerge and be heard. Together, with loving compassion, we will weave the stories of our Souls to form a tapestry of meaning that will further enrich our life’s purpose. This is a fluid dance that contains a wisdom and intelligence of its own, which Amber and Tim will gently mediate. As the spiral deepens, so too does the revelation of the conjunction of our meeting. Veils will be lifted and that which no longer serves us will be released, leaving us clearer to our essential Being. Here we will rejoice in our collective discovery, and cherish that which has been revealed, honouring and giving thanks to the Spirit that has graced us.
The Sanctuary
This convergence will be contained within our Ancestral Home. Nestled on Mount Cimino, the Villa is elevated with expansive views of the fertile Tuscia valley below, the spine of the Apennine Mountains beyond, and the expanse of the skies above. It is a living and breathing vessel, anchored by the sacred land upon which it stands. This sanctuary offers support and safety to all who rest within its embrace.
The Therapeutic Approach
Jungian Psychology
Tim and Amber guide the group beyond surface narratives to perceive the subtle architecture of the psyche. As the circle work deepens, we decode symbols and invite the hidden, rejected parts of the Self into the light, mapping the psychological terrain for the archetypal energies seeking to emerge. This clarity ensures our healing journey targets the root causes of our blockages rather than merely treating the symptoms.
Intuitive Energy Healing
Following the circle work, the group gathers for a dedicated meditation where the energetic work truly begins. Here, Tim and Amber act as conduits for cosmic intelligence, aligning the collective field with universal frequency to dissolve the specific knots revealed in the collective group psyche. As the system harmonizes, resistance falls away, triggering a profound awakening of dormant potential and guiding participants toward expanded awareness and transformation.
Sound Healing & Cacao
Deep sonic immersion becomes the vessel for restoration as Amber and Tim facilitate the opening of the throat chakra through toning and the resonant vibration of crystal singing bowls. Moving beyond simple relaxation, this practice uses the power of sound to dissolve energetic stagnation and realign your inner rhythm with the natural flow of the universe. To deepen the experience, we will incorporate sacred cacao, a traditional medicine known for its ability to open the heart chakra, creating a harmonious balance between the voice and the heart.
Grounding in Nature
Nurture your transformation with time spent in the enchanting gardens of the home, and guided walks through the ancient UNESCO Beech Forest atop the mountain. These moments offer a chance to reconnect with the living wisdom of the Earth, allowing the insights of the inner work to settle into the body and the landscape.
