Unicorns For Good and Social Innovation Park co-hosted a Cross-Year Transformative Mindful Leadership Retreat, at a peaceful zen sanctuary near the sacred Jingshan Temple — a 1,200-year-old temple and the birthplace of zen matcha tea.
Set amidst the stillness of ancient mountains and the richness of Chinese heritage, the retreat brought together global participants seeking more than external success:
They came in search of inner alignment, clarity, and transformation.
A Week of Intentional Reawakening
Far beyond a typical leadership offsite, the retreat offered a rare synthesis of holistic wellness, mindfulness practices, and creative self-mastery. Over the course of a week, participants were guided by renowned thought leaders and masters across diverse disciplines to explore the foundations of inner power — and to emerge renewed in mind, body, and spirit.
Highlights from the Retreat
Guided by Ancient Wisdom Under the guidance of Mindful Leadership Master Penny Low and Elisabetta Jiang, participants were led through meditative practices, energy elevation, reflective exercises, and deep inner work rooted in timeless wisdom.
Creative Rebirth Through Sound Fernando Garibay, Grammy-winning creative music producer behind Lady Gaga, Bruno Mars, and Shakira, led immersive frequency healing, self-discovery and life re-authorship sessions, with Ramiro Padilla, helping participants reconnect with their creative essence and rewrite their personal narratives, creating new stories that inspire and empower self-realization, and to live out their best lives yet.
Traditional Chinese Medicine & Longevity Practices Master of Traditional Chinese Medicine shared profound insights on holistic health and the science of how meditation enhances longevity. We also offered participants immune-boosting herbal remedies to elevate life force Qi energy and vitality.
Embodied Energy Activation The 28th Generation Yijin Jing National Master led participants through powerful energy-boosting movement practices, unlocking physical health and enhancing mental focus—essential for high-performance leadership in a fast-changing world.
A Soundtrack of the Soul Perhaps the most moving moment of the retreat was the creation of personalized song for each participant. These bespoke songs — crafted live — captured the essence of each individual’s internal journey, purpose and higher self. A true “musical DNA,” they served as sonic mirrors to the transformations taking place within, and a personal “mantra” for resonance and re-alignment in a busy and noisy world.
Not an Escape — A Rebirth
This was not a retreat for retreating. It was a profound rebirth.
By bridging ancient tradition with modern science and creativity, the experience offered more than rejuvenation — it created a safe yet powerful space for leaders to rediscover who they are, what they stand for, and how they want to lead in the world.
