ORIGINAL FACE
January 31 to February 8, 2026
The recognition of our original face is the fruit of a devoted search for our true nature. This seven-day retreat of meditation and self-inquiry takes place amid natural beauty, quiet contemplation, and authentic community. It offers an intensive process of loosening identification with egoic personality patterns—an emotional and energetic clearing that reawakens vitality, lightness, heartfelt joy, and a deep intimacy with the Self.
OUR PLACE
We are located in southern Chile, surrounded by native forests, pure water, and starry skies. Between mountains and lakes, in an area of lush biodiversity and profound cultural value, shaped by the living presence of Indigenous traditions and ancestral knowledge.
Inspired by the Hogan roofs of the Navajo people and Japanese Zen aesthetics, we designed an open space that blends with the forest. Guided by sacred geometry, a reciprocal roof stands self-supported with no interior columns, and a central skylight opens the sky above the meditation hall. It is a green roof that hosts plant biodiversity—an elevated living garden shaped like a large flower. The windows frame the landscape and sustain an atmosphere of silence, presence, and emotional transformation, surrounded by the beauty of southern Chile’s native forest.
OUR APPROACH
We offer an integrative approach to psychological and spiritual work. Guided by professional clinical psychologists
with over 15 years of experience and grounded in knowledge of diverse spiritual traditions, we combine psychotherapy tools, somatic work, and principles supported by current science. Our work seeks to explore the patterns, roles, and habits that shape our personality, recognizing them as constructs that, when understood and integrated, can be dissolved to reveal our true nature.
PROJECTS
Our work takes shape through experiential gatherings for psycho-spiritual integration and Satori Sports, a conscious sports space for athletes seeking inner transformation.
We’re also developing the Bosque Satori Foundation as a future project to support vulnerable children and adolescents through sports, meditation, and community care.
We nurture community life with gardens, hands-on gardening, collaborative building, and shared learning.

GOFUNDME
Bosque Satori is already a center that brings together meditation, self-inquiry, and somatic work in a caring, well-held environment. We’re in the final stretch to complete construction and keep opening doors for those seeking a deep shift in their lives.
We’ve launched this GoFundMe to make that final push. If this resonates with you, your contribution is a seed that soon becomes a real, lived experience for many people.
STORIES AT THE ZENDOG
Discover the unexpected teachings of Satori, a Great Dane who is the abbot of a temple lost in the forest. These stories emerge from his encounters with his disciples: humans, animals, young people, old people… All of them carry questions. Satori doesn't always answer with words: sometimes he remains silent, sometimes he bites a shoe. But he always points out the same thing: what you are looking for is not far away.
Read calmly. You might not understand everything. You might laugh. Maybe something in you will awaken.
FACILITATORS
Bosque Satori is guided by a team with professional training, spiritual practice, and experience in profound human processes. We are united by a common vision: to offer spaces of healing, awareness, and transformation that integrate body, mind, and soul.

TESTIMONIALS
Valentina Figueroa
Medical Surgeon
Sharing with a group of people with open hearts, willing to listen and support each other, to be vulnerable and navigate their own fears. Then there's nature: a magical forest, with mountains and the wind playing through the trees. It's an environment that invites you to stop, to breathe, to simply be, to feel that everything makes sense in the present. In Bosque Satori, I discovered the peace and love that arise when I pause in the here and now. I began to get to know myself, to look inward, and to open my heart to the present.

At Bosque Satori, I realized that I am much more than the limits I thought defined who I am, that I am much bigger than that. The feeling of wholeness, freedom, and connection with so many aspects of myself that I didn't believe were mine is something I struggle to put into words, but I can only describe it as the moment I began to feel more like myself, more alive.

Returning there was like returning to myself. It was a return to calm, to silence, to my essence. The Satori Forest is a gift. Because it's not just a place, but a perfect ecosystem for this process. From intimate conversation to meditation, shared reading, and group work, everything is designed to invite you to that reunion with yourself. To be. To feel. To live from the essence.
