THIS RETREAT IS NOT
It is not communication skills, and it is not confirmation of your story.
It is not for the person who wants the partner changed, the past rewritten, or the medicine to soothe a defence. It is not for the one who still needs to be the wounded one. Childhood protection is honoured. Adult defence is not.
If your honesty has a locked room — shame, guilt, the act you have decided is too dangerous to name — do not book. We will not work around it, and we will not chase you.
THE AGREEMENT
A conscious relationship is a mirror. What you cannot bear in the other is what you have not yet owned in yourself. What you swear you do not want still occupies the mind, and the mind creates from what it holds.
We ask for absolute honesty. Not the polished version. Not the account already given to a therapist. Lana and Ivan do not stand outside this. They mirror what you bring, take in what you cannot yet hold, and tell the truth from inside the work. It costs the body. It is not pointing from a safe distance.
Those who become truthful and accountable leave different. Those who keep one room locked leave heavier than they arrived. There is no other door.
BEFORE YOU WRITE
Early in the retreat you will describe the partner you want. Write only what you want, in the positive. Then look again and mark every quality that is not present in you. The list is a self-portrait. The partner you desire is the reflection. The partner you refuse is the picture you have been rehearsing. We do not refine the complaint. We ask you to own it.
The Lie That Asks for Healing
People arrive asking to be healed while still holding the very thing that prevents it.
They want the pain to stop. They say they are ready. Then the work begins, and it becomes obvious that readiness was only a feeling. What they are not ready to do is let the lie die.
The lie is rarely theatrical. It is the sentence repeated so long it feels like fact: I was the victim. They did this to me. If the whole of it were known I would be abandoned. I am protecting someone. This is simply who I am. That sentence is not memory. It is the ego’s last contract. The child needed it. The adult uses it to stay small, to keep shame and guilt unexamined, to keep consciousness in the dark.
In a relationship this contract has a second life. Whatever you will not own, you hand to the other. The coldness you condemn, the control you fear, the absence you cannot bear — these are not reports about a partner. They are reports about the room you have locked. Speak long enough about what you do not want, and the mind builds a life in that shape. The unwanted image occupies consciousness, and consciousness creates from what it holds.
At Intronaut we do not treat symptoms, and we do not negotiate with the story. We ask for absolute honesty — not courtesy, not the version already given, not the partial confession that still leaves one room locked. Everything hidden must come into the light. If it remains hidden, it continues to feed the structure that hurts.
Fear of vulnerability is not caution. It is the defence that once kept a child alive, now keeping an adult contracted. Secrets strengthen the ego. The ego, established for protection, no longer serves. It only hinders awareness.
Lana and I do not stand outside this. We mirror what you bring. We take it into our own system, process it, digest what you cannot yet hold, guide, teach, and heal. We are the example of the honesty we ask. We are truth-tellers. That is why the work costs the body. It is not pointing from a safe distance. It is metabolizing what has been living in the dark.
Those willing to be truthful, accountable, and undefended heal. Not because we possess a special power, but because the lie no longer has a host. Surrender is the only posture in which the Middle Point can be seen.
Those who resist — who still need to be the wounded one, who want the result without the exposure — intensify their own pain. The story tightens. Nothing changes except the volume of the complaint.
We will not chase. We will not work around the secret you have decided is still too precious or too dangerous. Courage is the doorway. Honesty is the key. There is no other.
We learned this the only way it can be learned. Those who tell the truth walk out different. Those who will not remain exactly who they were.
That is the agreement. Healing begins after the lie is allowed to die.
Our Story: A Journey of Love and Wholeness
“It’s all because of love.”
For nearly 34 years, we, Ivan Rados and Lana, have walked the path of marriage, embracing both its radiant highs and challenging lows. We’ve made mistakes—some small, others profound—loved fiercely, and at times hurt each other deeply. Yet, through it all, we remained open, learning from each misstep to grow as individuals and as a couple. Today, it is our greatest passion and honor to share our hard-earned wisdom, guiding others toward conscious, soulful relationships that mirror the infinite wholeness of existence.
Our work weaves together extensive knowledge in psychology, early childhood development, trauma, and attachment styles with the experiential insights of our own journey. With full transparency, honesty, creativity, and humor, we offer ourselves authentically, sharing personal stories to illuminate the path from chaos and immaturity to a deeply intimate, harmonious, and evolved partnership. We reveal what worked, what didn’t, and how we cultivated a relationship rooted in raw honesty, accountability, emotional and sexual intimacy, and boundless joy.
Our retreats blend lectures, individual and couple guidance, group exercises, and post-ceremony integration of Spirit Plant Medicine, all interwoven with our story of conscious love. We believe people learn best through real, vulnerable narratives, so we share our journey to inspire hope, motivation, and a deeper understanding of self and other. Our teachings explore what constitutes a Conscious Relationship, equipping you with practical tools to accelerate personal and relational growth. These tools, drawn from our proven model, empower you to navigate everyday challenges and fully embrace the gifts of Spirit Plant Medicine, which amplify your awareness and integration of sacred wisdom.
Our unique exercises, refined over decades, are profoundly effective, especially when paired with the loving illumination of psychedelic medicine. This sacred ally reveals the beauty in even your most broken parts, inviting you to face them with courage, release them with authenticity, and embrace your true essence. In this process, you learn a powerful truth: when you courageously reveal your raw, vulnerable self to your partner—free of agendas or defenses—your deepest fears of being unlovable dissolve. Instead, your partner sees your celestial beauty, falling in love with you even more deeply.
This is the heart of a soulmate relationship: the courage to stand naked in vulnerability, trusting that love will reflect your truest self. Our retreats create a sacred space for you to cultivate this trust, heal old wounds, and awaken the infinite potential of your union, offering your unique gift to Existence.
Join us to transform your relationship into a vibrant, conscious dance of love, where every step brings you closer to wholeness—within yourself, with your partner, and with the universe.
Compassionate relationship
The relationship with another is a mirror of the self. What you say about your partner is about you. What you swear you do not want is the image the mind has been rehearsing. The retreat does not refine the complaint. It asks you to own it, then to sit with what the body already knows.
Three-day retreats are held in Vancouver. Six- and nine-day immersions are held in Costa Rica or the Canadian Rockies, limited to five couples.
