Detox Your Mind Adelaide Day Retreat - 27th Dec 2025 Free Event

About this event

Spirituality • Buddhism

We all know the caterpillar’s journey is one of becoming — yet we rarely pause to see how its story mirrors our own.

its journey is one of transformation, not conclusion. Yet so often, we see ourselves as fixed, limited, and unchanging. How many days pass believing that who we are now defines who we’ll always be? How many moments are spent carrying the weight of old thoughts, unaware that we, too, are meant to evolve — to emerge as the butterfly, light and free, untouched by the past?

From a single thought to the course of our lives, everything arises through conditions — constantly changing, dissolving, and taking new forms. The mind is no different. It can shed what no longer serves and open to a clearer, freer way of being.

So, will you stay cocooned, or will you open your wings?

Join us at this transformative day retreat where Buddhism and science meet. Step into an exploration of the mind — its illusions, its power, and its potential for freedom. Learn to purify, renew, and truly detox your mind.
