The Light Has Come

A Course in Miracles Winter Solstice Retreat

“Today we celebrate the happy ending to your long dream of disaster.
There are no dark dreams now. The light has come.” - A Course in Miracles

December 18 - 22, 2026 — Benitachell, Spain

“I’ve been studying A Course in Miracles for so long, but something happened during your sessions that I never experienced before. It was like something went quantum and there was immediate healing. I don’t understand what happened. I have been studying so long, but now I feel it, my heart has opened, I’m in the real experience of it!”

— Ewa

“Forgiveness is the key, but who can use a key when he has lost the door for which the key was made, and where alone it fits?”- A Course in Miracles

Perhaps you've been studying A Course in Miracles for years. You understand the metaphysics. You know forgiveness is the key to happiness. You know that nothing real can be threatened, and nothing unreal exists.

And yet...

There is still fear, resentment, guilt, and subconscious blockages that keep you from fully forgiving yourself and others.

It is not because you don't understand the teachings. It is because there are still hidden places within the subconscious mind that are almost impossible to reach with our thinking mind.

A Course in Miracles says that:

"Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all of the barriers within yourself that you have built against it."

This retreat is devoted entirely to that.

Not by talking about forgiveness. Not by analyzing it or intellectualising the Course’s teachings —but by actually experiencing it.

This is not a Course in Miracles retreat where you'll spend days listening to lectures.

This is a retreat where we will move from the head to the heart, and shine light on all of the barriers that we’ve built against the Love we truly are.

Through extended morning and evening forgiveness sessions, Voice Liberation, intuitive movement, music, sound healing, and partner- and writing exercises, we will go on a journey without distance, to the Love you’ve never left.

Whether you are new to A Course in Miracles, or a devoted student for many years, if you are ready to wake up from the dream of suffering and experience the liberating power of True Forgiveness, this retreat is for you!

“On my long healing journey, I have hardly experienced anything more beautiful than the retreat with Neda. It was a bit like a Phoenix rising for me, because for the first time in my life I was able to reach the deepest layers of shame that were responsible for my feelings of smallness and helplessness. Since then, I really feel liberated, and - for the first time in my life - I feel connected to the Divine and I have a sense of who I am meant to be.”

— Anna

What to Expect

  • Extended guided forgiveness sessions to uncover and release old grievances, guilt, fear, and limiting beliefs.

  • Voice Liberation sessions that bypass the thinking mind and help you access and release emotions and subconscious barriers that words alone cannot reach. (No singing experience is needed! Voice Liberation is NOT a singing class, it is a powerful tool to release subconscious blockages by using music and expression of our voice)

  • Morning and evening silence, allowing you to begin and end each day in stillness, reflection, and inner listening.

  • Evening integration sessions, combining gentle practices, Course in Miracles mantras, integrative yin yoga, sound healing, and meditation to help you fully integrate what came up for you during the day.

  • Spirit-led exercises, all intuitively guided according to what is most helpful for the group in each moment.

  • A beautiful balance of depth and joy. While the forgiveness sessions require courage and willingness, there will also be much room for laughter, music, playfulness, and profound joy as we allow our grievances to be replaced by miracles.

  • Time in nature, surrounded by the peaceful mountains of rural Spain, with space to go on walks, rest, and reflect.

  • A Winter Solstice celebration on our final evening together, where we gather in Course in Miracles inspired music, celebration, and gratitude to welcome back the Light that never truly left.

  • A space where you feel truly safe and supported to go from illusions to Truth, with mighty companions from all over the world.

I want to join!

“I have done so many retreats, so many workshops, therapy, truly, I’ve been around. But I’ve never experienced anything as transformative as I have during this retreat. You really have no idea!” 

— Jacky

Meet Neda Boin

When I was twenty years old, I walked into a library with one purpose: to get
A Course in Miracles. As I took the book from the shelf I hugged it tightly against my chest. As I did, I heard a voice from within saying:

"This is going to change your life forever."

And it did.

A Course in Miracles has turned my life into a miraculous playground of remembering the Love I truly am. It has given me the gift of True Forgiveness —the most powerful tool to go from fear to Love.

One of the deepest healings for me has been forgiving the belief that God had left me—and forgiving myself for believing that separation from Love was ever even possible.

At the exact same time that A Course in Miracles found me, I also found Voice Liberation —a method to use your own voice for healing.

Where A Course in Miracles is guiding us to release our inner blockages and release our resistance to Love, Voice Liberation turned out to be the perfect companion to do just that.

Most Course in Miracles events I’ve been to are all very much focused on discussing and analyzing the text. But, as The Course says, “Words are but symbols of symbols, twice removed from reality.” Music and our own voice have the power to move us beyond words, straight into the heart, giving us an experience rather than an intellectual understanding.

For nearly a decade now I have been travelling all around the world guiding thousands of people from fear to Love with my workshops, retreats, and Course in Miracles inspired music.

I’ve experienced from the start that the more I step back and let Spirit lead the way, the more miraculously the sessions unfold.

And so although I am introducing myself here as the main guide of this retreat, what I really want you to know is that the real guide of this retreat is always the Holy Spirit.

Every session is channeled and therefore perfectly attuned to the group. This is why every retreat is different and why many people keep coming back for more.

If you are done suffering and are ready to truly get to the core of whatever is blocking you to let true forgiveness show you that The Light Has Come, you are so welcome to join this retreat.

Love, Neda

Guest facilitator Allan Carolina

I am so excited to have my partner, Allan, support me during this retreat. When I met Allan, the first question I asked him was: “If you could invite five people to have dinner with, dead or alive, who would you pick?” Without blinking he said: Jesus, Mary Magdalene, and Buddha.

Since then I’ve witnessed Allan’s intimate relationship with Jesus, and how Christ Consciousness can be felt in all that he does. He has been the greatest teammate for awakening I could ask for, and from the first workshop we gave together, we both felt a deep remembrance that we’ve been working together for many lifetimes.

Allan is a holistic physical therapist, Yin Yoga teacher, Reiki Master, and Kundalini facilitator. His childhood was marked by trauma, yet even at a very young age, he carried the profound awareness that his parents’ actions came from their own unresolved pain.

As he grew older, this awareness deepened into a strong curiosity to explore the depth of his own mind. As a teenager he would spend hours in meditation on his native island of Curaçao, often surrounded by eagles, contemplating life, healing, and truth.

Although he understood on an intellectual level that his parents were innocent and did the best that they could, his body still held the weight of unprocessed trauma he tried to outrun for many years.

It wasn’t until he came to a point in life where he seemingly had everything he thought he wanted, yet still felt a deep emptiness within, that he realized he could no longer escape his past.

What followed was a profound inner journey of healing and forgiveness — one that brought him to his knees in complete surrender to God, and to accepting his role as a miracle worker.

During our retreat, Allan is available in the afternoon for private bodywork healing sessions. In the evening he will support us with integrative Yin Yoga — a very gentle yoga practice that focuses on melting away any resistance the mind may have for all the healing work we do.

Allan is an amazing space-holder and will provide us with his steady presence to help us let go more, and let Love in deeper.

I Am Ready!

“Neda’s voice liberation workshops are powerful beyond measure. They are a way to transcend the thinking mind into a direct experience of unity and freedom. Neda is not only a gifted singer and songwriter, she is one of the most dynamic teachers of A Course in Miracles that I know.”

— Corinne Zupko, – bestselling and award-winning author of From Anxiety To Love

What are our methods and why do they work?

Voice Liberation

Neda Boin has been sharing her transformational Voice Liberation sessions for nearly a decade all around the world, including in maximum security prisons. The combination of A Course in Miracles teachings combined with music and vocal expression, makes it that we can easily bypass the thinking mind, and go straight into the core of what wants to be released.

We all knew about the healing power of our own voice when we were little, but most people have forgotten about it and have gone quiet. No singing experience is needed for this whatsoever, and Voice Liberation is in no way a ‘singing class’.

What does a session look like?

Every session is intuitively channeled and perfectly attuned to the groups need, so no two sessions are the same. What they do have in common, is that there will often be exercises done in pairs, with one person facilitating as the space holder, while the other person does the exercise.

Exercises can come in the form of, for example, forgiving ourselves, forgiving our past, forgiving our parents, releasing anger/shame/guilt/fear, reconnecting with our Higher Power and Inner Voice, letting go of limiting beliefs, healing the inner masculine and feminine energies, healing our inner child, and breaking through unhealthy patterns.

This process often involves an expression in words at first, followed by an expression in sound alone. Sometimes there can also be somatic movement involved.
When we let go of words —which still keeps us on the level of the thinking mind— and allow ourselves to express in sound and movement, we unlock a part of our mind where suppressed emotions, unhealed wounds, and stuck patterns can come up to the surface and be released in a way that our cognitive brain cannot accomplish.

Somatic Movement

Allan Carolina has been in the field of bodywork for over ten years. He is a holistic physical therapist, Yin Yoga teacher, and energy healer who uses somatic movement combined with intuitive and shamanic practices to facilitate deep healing.
Through embodied practices he guides people deep within the nervous system, where old blockages and limiting beliefs can be released. Allan works closely with Jeshua and Christ Consciousness and he truly has the gift to create a safe environment where healing can naturally occur, while feeling deeply held and supported.

I am ready for this!

“Neda’s voice liberation work is a process like no other. It helps to get to the core of your pain and suffering and releases you from it in a very powerful, moving, inspiring and fun way!”

— Maria Felipe, Author of Live Your Happy

Winter Solstice


For thousands of years, cultures around the world have gathered during the Winter Solstice on December 21st to welcome back the Light. In my Persian heritage, this sacred night is known as Yaldā. Families come together, candles are lit, poetry is shared, and the light is welcomed back in.

Winter solstice is regarded as an extra potent time to go inward and release whatever is no longer serving us.

Together we use this beautiful time of the year to join our mind and forgive all that we need to forgive to remember that the light we seek has never left us —we just had our eyes closed.

“Neda’s Voice Liberation sessions are very heart opening and mind clearing. They are a way of revealing and clearing unconscious beliefs and thoughts. I highly recommend Neda’s sessions for nurturing the forgiveness process and accelerating healing in mind for those who truly want to heal.”

— David Hoffmeister, Course in Miracles teacher and author

Sample Schedule

  • We are silent in the morning up until our first session. This is the time to connect with your intention and open up your mind and heart for our forgiveness session

  • We will enjoy a delicious and healthy farm-to-table breakfast. Breakfast will be in silence, and can serve as a beautiful opportunity to practice presence and mindful eating.

  • The forgiveness sessions can take different forms, and can vary from Voice Liberation exercises in pairs, group work, writing exercises, somatic movement, and whatever else Spirit has in store for us.

    The form will be different each time, but the purpose is always the same: Releasing the subconscious barriers we’ve built against Love’s Presence and welcoming back in the Light!

  • Enjoy a delicious and healthy lunch with local ingredients.

  • This is your time to rest and integrate.

    There are also two time slots available each day for private bodywork healing sessions with Allan.

  • Expect nurturing, vegetarian, and organic dishes that are prepared with love and care.

  • The evening sessions will be centred around integration and making sure we fully allow the healing to be accepted by our entire being.

    On the last night, which will be the Winter Solstice, we will have a celebratory evening with Course in Miracles music and an open mic for anyone who feels to share their heart!

  • Silence is an important way to allow all of the healing work to integrate. Take time to meditate, write, and invite your mind to rest and prepare for a new day full of miracles.

“Words can only point to the truth, but Neda’s Holy Relationship retreat allows you to actually experience it. Neda guides with a profound connection to Spirit. If you are willing to dive in and give yourself to the process, you won't just learn about freedom—you will remember what it feels like to be truly free. It’s a shift from observing to knowing. I am forever grateful.” 

— Hilmar

Who this retreat is NOT for:

Register for an intake call

Only sign the form if you are ready to commit to the retreat. We will be in touch with you shortly after to book a 20 min intake call.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • No you don’t. I’ve had people come to my retreats who have studied ACIM for forty years, as well as people who had never heard of it before.
    The only thing that is nonnegotiable is your willingness. It is very important that you have an open and willing mind to do the work. This retreat is not a relaxing spa, and the sessions will very likely take you outside of your comfort zone.

    If you are currently mentally unstable, you might benefit more from a one-on-one trajectory before feeling grounded and steady enough to participate. If there are any doubts about this, we can discuss it during the intake call.

  • Voice Liberation is not about singing beautifully. It is about using the voice as a mighty tool to reach subconscious layers of the mind and release whatever is blocking us from remembering the love we truly are. No singing skills are necessary whatsoever —all that is required is the willingness to go from darkness to Light.

  • The retreat starts on December 18 at 5.30 pm with a welcome dinner.

    It ends on the 22nd with a final lunch around 2pm.

  • Most Course in Miracles events I’ve been to incorporate a lot of lectures and question-and-answer sessions.

    Although I think that a strong metaphysical understanding of the Course is important, the focus on my retreat is on experience, rather than intellectual understanding.

    The sessions in my retreat are somatic, and will take you from the thinking mind straight into the heart, where real transformation can occur.
