Freeborn Retreat
you are born to be free
15–17 January 2027 · Chiang Dao, Thailand
Make 2027 the year you build what you really want
This is more than a spiritual retreat. It’s a bridge between your inner world and your outer world, for anyone who is ready for real change: entrepreneurs and founders, people who dream of being their own boss or becoming financially free, and anyone who wants to shift their mindset, move past old struggles and invest in their own growth.
Many of us carry big dreams, yet feel overwhelmed, unclear or quietly doubt we can get there. Over three days in the mountains of Chiang Dao, we’ll turn your purpose into a clear vision for 2027, concrete goals and a plan, plus practices you’ll actually follow. And we’ll have a good time doing it, in nature, with good people. So that at the end of 2027 you can look back and see what you’ve really achieved.

This is for you if you are…
- Ready to make a real change in your life and do something different
- An entrepreneur, founder, or dreaming of becoming your own boss
- Feeling stuck, overwhelmed or unsure where to focus next
- Wanting to change your mindset and overcome old struggles or doubts
- Ready to invest in your personal growth, and have a good time doing it
- Longing for freedom: financial, personal and creative
What we’ll do together
Purpose · Vision · Connection · Transformation · Friendship

Workshops
Practical sessions that take you from purpose to vision to concrete goals. Step by step, we turn what matters to you into a clear, doable plan for 2027.

Sound healing
Deeply relaxing journeys with handpan and singing bowls. Let the vibrations release tension, calm the nervous system and open space for something new.

Guided meditations
Quiet the mind and connect with your inner clarity. These meditations support subconscious reprogramming, so your vision can manifest faster.

Bonfire stories
Evenings around the fire, sharing honest stories and real connection. A small group, a warm circle, moments that stay with you. Meaningful. Priceless.

Nature & wellness
Sauna, steam and ice bath at The Elements Wellness Spa, plus a visit to the Chiang Dao Hot Springs. Time to rest, recharge and feel your body.

Ice bath
Cold plunge with a view of Doi Chiang Dao. Build resilience, reset body and mind and discover how much stronger you are than you think.

Right in the heart of Chiang Dao
We’ll stay at Nest 2 Resort, surrounded by forest at the foot of Doi Chiang Dao. Three days and two nights to step out of the daily rush, gain perspective and plan your year with a clear head.


Your guide
Hi, I’m Nick Freeborn, founder & CEO of Swees, a fast-growing plant-based food startup in Chiang Mai. As an entrepreneur I know the excitement of building something of your own, and the doubt, pressure and overwhelm that come with it.
What keeps me grounded is more than 15 years of meditation, Reiki and self-healing. I’m a certified holistic health coach (Academy of Naturopathy, Switzerland), completed a year-long Reiki training with Reiki master Ajahn Tom, with direct lineage to Mikao Usui, and have spent thousands of hours in meditation, including in person at Dr. Joe Dispenza’s retreats. I’m also a handpan player, musician and sound healer, have 150 hours of therapeutic Thai massage training, and trained in nonviolent and conscious communication.
This retreat brings both worlds together: the inner work that gives you clarity, and the practical tools to turn it into results. It’s my first in-person retreat of my own, and I’d love to share it with you.
