Three days of immersive practices, deep meditation and authentic transformation. An experience to stop running and start living.
In everyday life it is easy to get lost. Between commitments, expectations and the noise of the world, contact with who we really are fades, almost without realizing it. This retreat was created to give you the time and space to find it again.
Over three days immersed in nature and practice, guided by Daniel Lumera, you will explore the 4 Talents of the Golden Thread: an authentic journey toward greater awareness of you, your life, and what you truly desire to create.
A journey to the heart of who you are, to bring a deeper sense of peace, wholeness and fulfillment into everyday life.
Every talent you explore in these three days is a door. Not to something external, but to a part of you just waiting to be recognized. That’s what you’ll take home with you.
You will learn to be with yourself without running away. Through meditation you will develop the ability to go through difficult emotions such as anxiety, fear and agitation without being overwhelmed by them, finding a stable and lasting inner calm.
What has caused us to suffer often becomes the boundary within which we live. With transcendental talent you will overcome those boundaries: old pains, blocks and traumas will give way to a broader and freer perspective on yourself and your life.
You will learn to trust life. Devotional talent invites you to open your heart, let go of control and discover that welcoming what happens, with trust, is the highest form of inner strength.
It is the deepest experience of the retreat: a state of pure awareness of being in which you are no longer looking for who you are, but experiencing it. A moment of clarity that, once touched, changes the way you look at everything else.
Villa Fiorita stands in the Venetian countryside between Treviso and Venice, in an atmosphere of quiet and natural beauty that itself becomes part of the experience. Spacious spaces, harmonious architecture and precious silence: the ideal setting to go deep.
During the retreat, meals will be curated by Paola Castellani, a Golden Thread researcher and food consultant specializing in natural and plant-based cooking. Each menu is designed to nourish the body in harmony with the inner work you are doing.

Today after practicing Bioenergetic Activations© I did meditation and walk on the beach..I contemplated the sea, but especially the sound of the waves on the beach as never before, giving me deep serenity and beauty. Thank you."
"I practiced them the other day at high altitude in the mountains and felt the difference in oxygenation (I was a little dizzy). It took away the fatigue and tiredness of the climb very quickly. Instead in the daily routine they are giving me a lot of energy and centering...I am much more serene and open to life and a lot of good things are happening to me. I continue with great joy in the practice. Thank you again."
"Thank you from the bottom of my heart Daniel. I am deeply grateful for this gift you make available to all of us. Your meditation is rich, wonderful and possesses incredible transformative power. Thank you thank you thank you!"
"Although I was skeptical at first, I must say that it is changing my life. And if practiced every day, already after two weeks you can feel the benefits. Since I have been meditating I have realized that I have a very important tool which is my breath and which I use in every eventuality to gain clarity, calm myself, center myself, dissolve anxiety."
"I haven't told you how much I have already changed since following you. I am more serene and am beginning to look at everything from the perspective of the sun. This affects the people around me. There is more harmony and optimism. Thank you again."
"But thank you thank you thank you!!! Daniel you never cease to amaze me!!! This sequence of exercises is very powerful, I found again techniques I know, but so all together with a clear intention, it was like living in the body, very intensely, the practices you propose. Really enthusiastic!!! I commit myself to practice if not every day, as much as I can!!!"
"Il Filo d’Oro is the experience that has enriched the recent years of my life more than any other. In meditation, I found a path that does not lead to escaping the world, but rather to immersing oneself in it in a more harmonious and conscious way, with the strength of the values and tools that the path transmits."
“The most surprising and wonderful journey a person can undertake, and at the same time absolutely urgent and necessary.”
“It is like finding the thread that unites heaven and earth, matter and spirit, my heart to the whole—and in that whole, I can breathe freely. I have come home. But not to just any place. I have returned to feeling, to true presence. I walk lighter, more whole, more aware. And every time I take a deep breath, I feel my soul smile.”
“When I stopped asking and started giving—my time, my care, my attention, my love, my being... I started to feel alive, to give meaning to life, to recognize what I receive as a gift, a sign of love and not as something 'owed', to be grateful to life. True wealth is in how I feel when I give all this with purity of heart. Thanks to the journey of Il Filo d'Oro which made me re-discover myself, which brought me back to me.”
“Il Filo d’Oro is a path of life. My Master for the deepest knowledge of myself and of life. A family with whom I share the same values and can be exactly who I am. An incredible journey inside myself. A choice for brave hearts. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”
“Il Filo d’Oro is the most authentic and profound choice. The choice to love and become a gift. The choice to be of service. The choice to remember who I am. Pure consciousness of being. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”
“For me, Il Filo d’Oro is that strength, courage, and determination that led me to a condition of happiness from which to launch new and authentic beginnings.”
“For me, Il Filo d’Oro is a door of awareness that opens to infinite possibilities, a commitment of pure love, the path that, when traveled, leads beyond every limit and clears the way for the infinite and the infinite love that we are and that is within each of us.”
“The encounter with you is one without time and space... that fills every time and every space. I spent a lifetime seeking to feed, satisfy, and quench a deep lack of love and for the first time, after the Il Filo d’Oro intensive, only 7 days, I feel satisfied, complete, full... nothing disturbs me, nothing is missing.”
“Il Filo d'oro was the gateway to myself; it allowed me to explore the vastness of my soul, to disidentify with what I believed I was, and to Be what I am. Pure essence. And a deep gratitude...”
“This path had always been waiting for me, but I didn't know it. For me, Il Filo d’Oro only goes inward, into the heart, into the essence; it shakes you and restores you, frees you and elevates you, it changes your eyes—you can finally see Beyond. The people I meet on this journey are all for me. Thank you Daniel for having wanted and believed in this path, thank you for your life dedicated to others. You inspire the Ancient of my Days.”
“I found pure devotion for Life, the deep love that needs no words. Il Filo d'Oro is the memory of who we are, a gentle memory that caresses us every day.”
“It wasn't me who found Il Filo d’Oro, it was it that found me, when I had already stopped looking... It appeared in the darkest moment, when everything inside me seemed broken and I had even lost the memory of who I was. I thought it was only desperation guiding me, but beneath that silent pain, I discovered an ancient love, held back for so long it had become almost invisible...”
This retreat does not begin the day you arrive. It is a journey that you prepare for, experience, and continue to unfold within you long after it ends.
Before you even cross the threshold of the retreat, you will be welcomed and prepared by an online mentoring meeting with the Golden Thread Expert Tutors. An accompaniment designed to help you arrive already open, present and ready to receive the most from the experience.
From Friday, September 11 at 3 p.m. until Sunday, September 13 at 1 p.m., you will immerse yourself in a guided, profound and transformative experience. Three days in which every practice, every moment of silence and every encounter is designed to bring you closer to yourself.

"I have been doing the activations assiduously for a while and the effects are amazing. I haven't done them for a few days now, and I find that what I lack is precisely calmness, in that I get caught up in a situation that I cannot solve. A moment ago I responded to the academy vignette with the choice of the calm bottle. The cure. Immediately resume Bioenergetic Activations© on a regular basis. Pure truth."
