Method NHC
Silence with Molchanov
Theravada Vipassana + neurophysiology with a modern product approach
- 10 nights
- 7 levels of neuro-practices
- Komune Resort
- Single occupancy
- Taught in Russian
Led by NHC founders Sarasvati and Alex Gidirim, together with leading neurotrainers of the NHC Academy
A university that teaches you to manage attention and state
Not a one-off retreat but a university: levels of study from your first camp to advanced programmes, lectures, testing and certification, and its own academy of neurotrainers. Camps all over the world, from Bali and Cyprus to Mexico and Tibet.
How the 10 nights work
Not meditation, but neurosurgery of attention
Live it first. Then understand it. Then build it in.
Sitting, lying, standing and in motion — the practice is done in every natural human posture so it integrates into life as fully as possible.
Theravada Vipassana (Mahasi Sayadaw, the Thai Forest tradition) + neurophysiology. Every step is explained through how the brain and nervous system work.
Phones, dogma or substances. Outside of religion. Protocol, stages, feedback — every camp is more precise than the last.
A collaboration between the NHC Academy and Alexey Molchanov — Silence with Molchanov :)
Alexey usually dives into the depths of the water; this time he will dive into the depths of his subconscious together with the other participants!
Alexey joins the camp as a participant and goes through the Method NHC programme like everyone else. On the last day he will lead a breathwork set with immersion in the pool.
Taking part in the breathwork session is optional and depends on your health.
This camp is for you if…
My thoughts never stop
Thoughts keep spinning even at night. I just want silence — even for a few days.
I react before I have time to think
I flare up and regret it later. I want a choice to appear between the event and my reaction.
A big decision is ahead
A launch, a deal, a business pivot. I want to decide from calm, not from anxiety.
Life at a crossroads
The old no longer works and the new is not yet visible. I need a pause to hear myself.
I already practise — I want to go deeper
Meditation is part of my life, but I have hit a ceiling. I need a master, a protocol and full immersion.
I want to be among my own people
Strong people around me who walk the same path and ask themselves the same questions.

10 nights — five stages
A clear schedule, silence, practice with a master and a team. Every detail — from the daily routine to food and accommodation — works for the depth of the experience.
Inventory
Arrival, rules, handing in gadgets, opening ceremony, emotional detox. In the evening — the start of noble silence.
Activation
Core practice, lectures, the mentor’s first instructions.
Energisation
The intensity of practice grows; targeted dynamic practices that give an energy boost are added.
Integration
Bringing the practice into life and work, journalling, questions and answers.
Completion
NHC testing and certification, a breathwork set by Alexey Molchanov with immersion in the pool, celebration lunch.
Challenges — for those ready to go further. The decision is based on the intensity and quality of each participant’s practice.

Komune Resort — the east coast of Bali
Komune Resort, Bali
A resort on the east coast in Keramas — far from the tourist bustle of Kuta and less than an hour from Ngurah Rai airport. A black volcanic sand beach, 4.5 hectares of tropical garden and rice fields nearby.
The rules and why they matter
Noble silence
Talking takes a huge amount of energy. Silence gives it back and teaches you to speak mindfully.
Digital detox
No gadgets. No clocks or mirrors — the mind does not need to plan or watch its appearance.
Sensory pause
No eye contact, touch, pool, intimacy or strong scents. Attention does not leak outwards.
Men and women — separately
Couples included. This is important to know in advance.
Food — vegetarian detox menu
- Intermittent eating: solid food only at breakfast at 7:00 and lunch at 11:30
- Between meals — herbal teas, cacao, juices, smoothies, protein shakes
- Vegetarian menu with dairy and eggs
- You list restrictions and allergies in the participant form
Your safety — part of the programme
No special preparation is needed: the practice is open to anyone who can sit, lie down, move and breathe. Deep immersion is serious work for the nervous system, so you are supported throughout the camp.
Before the camp
You fill in the participant form. If you have any health considerations, we discuss them in advance and decide together how to make the practice safe.
At the camp
Each participant has a personal support map. It is updated by the on-site team, online coordinators and methodologists.
After the camp
Community and support help you return gently to everyday life and keep the result.
Please let us know in advance if:
- you have serious psychological conditions
- you are troubled by acute pain
- you take medication that affects the psyche
- you are under a specialist’s care — a doctor’s consent will be needed
- you are pregnant
The breathwork session with immersion on the last day is optional and depends on your health. The camp supports general well-being but does not replace medical treatment.
How to prepare and what to bring
Ease into the rhythm
This way your body adjusts to the camp rhythm in advance and the first days are easier.
- Gradually shift your sleep: go to bed and get up a little earlier
- Skip solid food in the evening: a smoothie, juice or herbal tea instead of dinner
- If possible, give up meat, alcohol and psychoactive substances
- Put away perfume and scented creams
Minimum of things
We provide the cushion, mat, timer and journal. You will not need books or notebooks.
- Passport and medical insurance
- 3 sets of comfortable white clothing covering shoulders, knees and stomach
- Slippers and comfortable walking shoes
- Light sportswear
- Unscented cosmetics
And one small request. A farewell food tour before the camp is not the best idea. You cannot eat and drink in advance for 10 nights anyway, and getting into the practice will be noticeably harder.
