Rising Sun Healing Retreat

Oct 12th-19th, 2024

Rangiroa, Tahiti

Xu Darocha Healing Art is thrilled to announce the first Rising Sun Healing Retreat in Rangiroa, Tahiti.

The exciting event will take place from October 12th-19th, 2024, and offer a week-long program of Chi Gong, Tai Chi, meditation, healing, and rejuvenation uniquely suited to the serene beauty of Rangiroa, Tahiti.

During your stay, you'll embark on a journey of self-discovery, rejuvenation, and holistic healing that will leave you feeling refreshed, renewed, and revitalized. Our program is designed to help you achieve optimal health and wellness physically, mentally, and spiritually. Come and unwind in the embrace of nature, feel inspired, and gain a new perspective on life.

Start each day with a revitalizing group Chi Gong session by the tranquil Tahitian morning sea.

Experience the transformative power of Chi Gong through carefully designed exercises and advanced teachings. You will learn how to cleanse toxins from your organs, strengthen your muscles, increase your range of motion, and calm your mind, all while integrating Chi Gong into your daily routine.

Throughout the week, the sessions and activities will help equip you with skills to safeguard your energy and shield yourself from negativity. You will release stagnant energy in your being, awaken your senses, and rewire your nervous system. You will also learn techniques to harness and channel your sexual energy for self-healing, creativity, and inner joy. 

Every day, you will have free time to explore the remote and beautiful island, surrounded by a pristine ocean and a gorgeous sky. You can experience Tahitian culture, savor fresh food sourced locally, swim with sea life, and much more.

A late afternoon session will introduce you to Taoism's history, cosmology, and philosophy, deepening your understanding of the healing work and aiding you on your transformational journey.

Every evening after group dinner, we will have a guided meditation and sharing session, during which we will come together to support and encourage each other on our journey toward personal growth. 

The retreat is designed to help you release old patterns and trauma, renew your sense of vitality, and enhance your overall well-being. Each participant will receive one to two private Chi Nei Tsang healing sessions from Xu and personal support throughout the program.

At the end of the week, you will have built a set of daily practices to apply to your life and provide a foundation for inner transformation and long-lasting habits you can incorporate at home.

Only ten individuals are invited to partake in this deeply enriching and intimate retreat experience.

Every bungalow has a clean bathroom and shower. The water source is filtered rainwater; no laundry service is available on-site. However, you can wash your basics as needed in the bathroom sink. 

Please note that no hot water is available for the shower, but it's not usually an issue for our guests since the island has a tropical climate.

Where is Rangiroa, and how do you get there?

Rangiroa is an island in Tahiti, a country in the South Pacific with a time difference of only three hours from Los Angeles. Getting to Rangiroa is easier than you may think. From Los Angeles, there is an 8-hour flight to the main island of Tahiti, followed by a short hour-long flight to Rangiroa.

Do I need a visa to go there?

If you are a citizen of the United States, you can enter Tahiti visa-free for stays of up to 90 days. However, you still need a valid passport to enter the country, so please ensure your passport is current. You may need a visa for your trip if you are not a US citizen. In such a case, please let us know, and we will provide you with the necessary paperwork to obtain a tourist visa.

Why Rangiroa?

One of the largest islands in the world, Rangiroa is unique for its abundant lagoon and big sky. It has an elliptical shape with a large lagoon at its center. The island formed millions of years ago by volcanic activity, and over time, the center sank into the sea. As a result, what remains today is a circular outer reef of coral surrounding a central shallow lagoon so vast that it's impossible to see the other side of the island. When standing on a long strip of land, you'll feel surrounded by the ocean from all sides. 

When we immerse ourselves in nature and its purity, we can feel the life force, or Chi,  in everything around us and within us. Rangiroa, in particular, is a place of untamed beauty, yet incredibly gentle and delicate, thanks to the nature of the lagoon. 

The vastness of nature has always been a source of inspiration for Xu, but it was in Rangiroa that she truly felt the tenderness and beauty of nature on a much bigger scale. By incorporating Chi Gong, Tai Chi, meditation, Chi Nei Tsang, and other somatic practices, Xu believes that she can assist her clients and students in receiving deeper healing and transmission in the serenity and gentleness of Rangiroa.  When our physical body feels embraced and secure, our mind becomes quiet, and our entire being opens up to release much deeper patterns, traumas, and burdens, allowing us to experience the fullness of life. 

What's the story behind the Rising Sun Healing retreat?

Xu has envisioned hosting healing retreats, teaching chi gong and tai chi, and conducting healing sessions at sacred sites for many years.

Xu discovered her love for Rangiroa on her first trip to Tahiti in 2017. The beauty and serenity of this pristine island profoundly impacted Xu and opened up new possibilities in her spiritual path. While spending time there, she received many visions, openings, and healings.  After her trip, Xu was inspired to help and support others on their healing journey, and she began to embrace her role as a healer and teacher.

She spent the next seven years perfecting her techniques and improving her visions as a healer and teacher. She is now sharing her knowledge by teaching weekly Chi Gong and Tai Chi classes, offering private healing sessions regularly, and helping people heal both emotionally and physically. 

In February 2024, she returned to the island and delved deeper into its landscapes and cultures. It was then that she realized the island's healing power could benefit many others, helping them to connect more deeply with nature and themselves. The vision of hosting the first Rising Sun Healing Retreat in Rangiroa was born. 

Embrace the opportunity to find inner peace and transformation in heavenly Rangiroa, Tahiti.
