FAQ
Can I attend if I’ve never fasted before?
Yes. The Monk Fast is designed for first-timers and seasoned seekers alike. All retreats are fully guided and held gently.
What’s included in the price?
Full facilitation, campsite access, herbal and mineral support, daily practices, firewood, and a nourishing break-fast meal.
Do I need to bring food?
No. You’ll be supported with teas, minerals, and structured rest. You’ll share a break-fast meal together at the end of the retreat.
Do I need to bring gear?
Yes — this is a BYO tent or van retreat. A suggested packing list is sent upon registration. Limited gear hire available by request.
What’s the camping setup like?
Minimalist, wild luxury. No power. No reception. But firelight, fresh water, and sky.
Is there any indoor space or shelter?
Yes. At the centre of the retreat space stands our ceremonial bell tent — a shared space for breathwork, silence, and elemental ritual. It’s where we begin, return and remember.
Can I come early or stay after?
Yes — we offer early arrival and extended stay options by prior arrangement. Just ask in your EOI form or email us.
What if I have a medical condition or take medication?
Please note this in your application. Fasting is not suitable for everyone. We may refer you to speak with a health professional before confirming your place.
