Tse Dup Retreat 2026
ANCIENT TIBETAN LONGEVITY SECRETS
5 ELEMENT HEALING
Join us as Cosmic Connections’ main classroom is transformed into a sacred Tibetan temple space for a powerful 3-day retreat experience. Held from July 17 to 19 in Nashville, TN, this retreat allows you to engage and connect with your inner world.
THIS IS AN INVITATION TO SOMETHING RARE.
Rooted in the ancient Bon tradition of Tibet, these longevity practices were once reserved for high-level practitioners and initiates; methods designed to restore, replenish, and extend the vitality of the body, mind, and soul. Now, you are being welcomed into this living lineage.
Whether you attend all three days or feel called to specific sessions, this retreat is designed as a deeply nourishing journey, one that meets you exactly where you are while gently expanding what is possible for your energy, your health, and your spiritual path.
Together, we will enter a field of:
✨ sacred mantra and vibrational healing
✨ guided meditations and inner journeys
✨ energy practices to restore and strengthen the life force
✨ ritual and transmission rooted in authentic Tibetan lineage
This is more than a retreat, it is a recalibration of your entire being.
A return to balance.
A remembrance of your innate vitality.
A reconnection to the timeless wisdom encoded within you.
Step into the stillness…and allow your body, mind, and spirit to receive.
Reserve your spot today and gift yourself a weekend of personal empowerment. Below is the daily schedule of events. You may register for the whole 3 day event or individual events. For any questions or concerns please email the retreat manager Katherine King at katherine@yourcosmicconnections.com. All registrations will receive a confirmation email from Cosmic Connections with the full itinerary and retreat information.
***Please note this is not a traditional residential retreat. If you are visiting from out of Nashville we will provide you with a list of accommodation and restaurant suggestions in the area once registered. Participants will be responsible for their own travel, accommodation & dining.
Tania Smith is an authorized Tibetan Lopon & Drup Shen (Teacher & Healer) and has been given all lineage transmissions and empowerments in order to pass on these mantras according to the Tibetan Bon tradition. She was given the spiritual name Lumo Woekar by Chongtul Rinpoche and is the first non-Tibetan teacher in the United States to teach this healing practice from the Zhang Zhung Bön tradition according to his vision. She received the transmission and empowerment from His Holiness the 33rd Menri Trizin, spiritual head of the global Bön tradition, prior to his passing and one of the five principal spiritual lineage holders recognized within the Tibetan tradition alongside His Holiness the Dalai Lama.
Lopon is a Tibetan title which means teacher and is a spiritual degree in the Tibetan Bon tradition equivalent to an M.A. in Tibetan Spirituality. In 2026 she will begin her 9th, 3-year Tse Dup program after teaching it for 12 years.
"To study Tse Dup is to study the heart of compassion." ~Chongtul Rinpoche

Healing from WithinDiscovering The Power of Tse Dup Tibetan Soul Healing Saturday, July 18th. 1pm to 5pm. Cost: $150 Known as a longevity practice, Tse Dup Yang Bod is an ancient Tibetan Bon healing system dating back to the 7th century. This refined yet accessible practice works with five essential elemental energies within the body – energies that support your vitality, emotional balance, and overall wellbeing. When these energies are aligned, you naturally feel more clear, grounded, and energized. Within this retreat, you will be gently guided through a foundational meditation and Long Life Mantra, offering a direct and supported way to reconnect with your life force and restore balance within your system. As you deepen into the practice, many experience greater mental clarity, emotional stability, and a renewed sense of inner strength—along with a more radiant, harmonious energy field. This is a rare opportunity to experience a sacred Tibetan longevity practice in a way that is both approachable and deeply transformative. Choose In-Person Registration or Zoom Registration |

Special Tse Dup Healing CeremonyRestoring Balance & Harmony With The Five Elements Saturday, July 18. 7pm to 8:30pm. Cost: $35 This beautiful healing ritual known as Tibetan Soul Healing connects through ancient mantras to the crystal healing light of Earth, Wind, Fire, Water & Space, to release blockages, provide healing and strengthen our life force through energetic blessing. The healing ceremony is performed by candlelight in the traditional Tibetan way, through the healing sound of drumming, mantras, invocations to the 5 elements and energetic blessing. As part of the ceremony, you’ll be invited to write down a personal struggle or challenge —something you wish to release. These notes, kept entirely anonymous, will be placed in a singing bowl at the heart of the shrine. There, they’ll receive the healing energy of a ritual invocation to Yeshe Walmo, the radiant Tibetan goddess of wisdom, protection, and transformation. In these times of rapid change and uncertainty, many of us are navigating unseen struggles. This ceremony is a sacred space to release, to receive, and to reconnect with your inner strength. Come with an open heart. Leave with renewed clarity. Choose In-Person Registration OR Zoom Registration.

Awakening The Heart Sunday, July 19. 1pm to 5pm. Cost: $150 These sacred Tibetan Heart Mantras are known as the vibrational essence of enlightenment – living frequencies that carry the awakened state within their sound. Subtle yet profoundly powerful, they work to open the heart, calm the mind, and gently dissolve layers of stress, emotional density, and energetic obstacles. For those seeking a deeper sense of peace and inner alignment, these mantras offer a direct pathway inward – beyond the thinking mind and into a more spacious, luminous awareness. You’ll be guided in how to chant and work with these mantras, entering a state where their healing resonance can be fully received and a return to a more centered state. Choose In-Person Registration OR Zoom Registration.
