Rediscover yourself in the heart of Tuscany with daily Tantric yoga and meditation. Surrounded by wildflowers and olive groves, deepen your connection with relaxation, prāṇāyāma, and mantra — attuning to nature's harmonies.

​

Find sanctuary in our restored farmhouse, delight in local cuisine, and let the land rise up to greet you. Reconnect with your soul, appreciate beauty like a true Tuscan, and savor the quiet, vibrant stillness of il dolce far niente — the sweetness of doing nothing.

Rooted in the wisdom of the sages as anchored in Vishoka Meditation, the Śrī Sūkta, and Tantric Haṭha Yoga — The Journey Home is more than a pilgrimage to ancient sacred sites, it is a reclaiming of your innermost Self.

​

Pamela Meriwether and Natalie Backman are your guides for The Journey Home, a pilgrimage and immersive experience of sādhanā, self-inquiry and the rich atmosphere of the Tradition’s seat of śakti — the Śrī Vidyā Shrine.

'I wanted freedom, open air, and adventure. I found it on the sea.' 

​

Sognare il Mare — 'to dream of the sea' — the force that encourages us to embrace our fear of uncertainty. We dance with nature — acquiescing to her lead. This surrender brings a special freedom — to play, to discover, to remember what it is to be alive.

 

Sognare il Mare blends luxury, exploration, relaxation, cultural immersion, and spectacular cuisine! Join us for an unforgettable adventure on one of many seas...

There is something about wine in Tuscany that captures my imagination and makes my soul sing. It is a love affair with nature and the relationship between soil, water, sun, vine, berry, human, and time.

 

Add centuries of history, breathtaking landscapes, perfect culinary pairings, and taste the extraordinary.
