Take a look at our comprehensive and rich meditation programs available on our website.

Have you ever wondered about the true meaning of success and happiness? Have you ever felt that your life isn’t giving you the highest fulfillment, yet you don’t know what to do? Life is so short yet we are so caught up in circumstances of daily living and many are losing control of it. We are capable of great things. You may have a picture of yourself in your eyes: a vision of making your dreams a reality, of achieving the success you know could be yours. But why don’t you try giving yourself time to have fun, relax and unplug from daily stress. Why don’t you do both things at the same time? It’s time to push yourself outside of your comfort zone and go on a trip to an unknown world with creativity, confidence and peace. Taking time to replenish your mind and spirit is paramount to sustaining mental well-being and becoming the best version of yourself that will attract positive things to your journey.
The application is not available to apply for at the moment.

Who is it for?

Do you believe that a happy life and an individual highest achievement can go together? Well, this opportunity can be for YOU. We will show you how to break free from any stereotypes with these 4D’s objectives: - Discover yourself and become a better version of it that is confident, enjoyable and content. - Detox and empower the mind to continue the journey joyfully and in a balanced manner regardless of whatever obstacles you are facing and reach your highest goal. - Develop a mindful lifestyle that will become a personal reminder to pick up positive emotions over negative ones. - Design a peaceful environment and live with a Peace In Peace Out (PIPO) principle that contributes to sustainable development. This International Peace Training for Young Adults will take place in Thailand where participants will enjoy meditating in a serene and peaceful environment, as well as practicing mindfulness through different activities. To many, it is a celestial hideaway on Earth!
