As It Is 2024
We were incredibly fortunate that the great Tibetan Yungdrung Bön teacher Drubdra Khenpo Tsultrim Tenzin came to As It Is 2024 to teach Dzogchen and how to apply it in daily life, along with several other practices.
RESIDENTIAL WELLBEING RETREATS
From a 1 day retreat, a weekend, to a 5 day immersion, retreats lead by King Yin / Jon are designed to create, open and hold a safe space for people to go deeper into themselves, to learn, share and grow.
The deep work with sound, meditation and music is inspired by Buddhist teachings and plant medicines, and is authorised and encouraged by senior Tibetan Buddhist masters and shamans.
Sessions include meditation, therapeutic sound and Dharma music as well as breathing, walking meditation, mantra singing circles, movement and creativity to generate insights and realisations and cultivate a sense of peace and deep relaxation.

TESTIMONIALS
Naomi
Sound & Meditation Retreat
“King Yin's course is a gift to us, to nurture the tired parts of ourselves, the stressed parts of ourselves, the vulnerable parts of ourselves. Like soaking in a hot fragrant bath. I'd like to do more healing thru sacred music...I loved the way King Yin drew on the Tibetan Buddhist teachings and dropped in pearls of wisdom from his Lama, touching on the deeper well of spiritual understanding that he has experienced.”
Elizabeth
Sound & Meditation Retreat
“The weekend Therapeutic Sound and Meditation Retreat I attended with King Yin has had a profound and I feel a lasting impact on me. I have been in a wonderful relationship for over 40 years but had developed some negative responses to my partner which I didn’t like and would leave me feeling annoyed or even angry.
Something shifted within me over the course of the weekend with the experiencing of sound, meditation and listening to King Yin talking about aspects of the Dharma. What hit home for me was that I was causing my own suffering by my negative responses and only I could change that. Somehow the weekend working with King Yin healed that aspect within me and I feel cleansed and at peace. I’m so grateful to King Yin for creating a healing environment which certainly caused a life changing shift within me.”
Claire
Sound & Meditation Retreat
“As a passionate, talkative and energetic person, I am often on the look out to find retreats to help me channel these characteristics in a positive way. The weekend King Yin provided ticked all of those boxes.
I felt free to be the true person that I am. (I understand that the 'drama queen' can sometimes be annoying, but here I felt totally accepted and encouraged to share my talents.)
The space King Yin created felt safe and loving, so we were able to explore therapeutic sound and meditation freely. The bonds the group made were strong and continue to grow, as Jon created good communication links for us all to stay in touch.
I am excited to continue on this journey of exploration and healing, using the gifts King Yin has given me. I have now incorporated sound therapy and meditation into my daily work and personal life and feel a lot better for it!”
