SOHLARA presents · an intimate immersion with Elitom El-Amin

PRANA & FASTING RETREAT

24–27 September 2026Southern TenerifeSohlara Caves

Three nights inside volcanic rock. Three days to explore fasting, breath, consciousness and energy with Elitom El-Amin.

The invitation

What if you could experience your body differently?

Step outside your everyday rhythm and into three days of observation, simplicity and deep exploration.

Fasting has been used across many traditions as a practice of discipline, attention and reflection. This retreat explores the relationship between food, hunger, habit, breath and awareness in an intimate, experiential setting.

Across the retreat, the focus is not on forcing an outcome, but on noticing what changes when everyday routines become quieter: how you experience hunger, energy, attention, breath and your own internal patterns.

Elitom El-Amin

Fasting · Prana · Consciousness

Elitom El-Amin is an author, teacher and long-time practitioner whose public work centres on fasting, pranic nourishment, meditation, energy cultivation and what he calls “human photosynthesis.”

Rather than presenting a single technique, his work spans books, courses, retreats, festival talks and long-form conversations about discipline, awareness, the relationship with food and the possibilities he associates with energy-based living.

More about Elitom

More than a retreat facilitator.

His public body of work stretches across books, training programmes, international gatherings and years of teaching within the pranic and fasting community.

On his official website, Elitom currently lists several books and programmes, including Fasting and Beyond, Fasting and Longevity, It's OK to be Healthy, Human Photosynthesis 101 and a Holistic Planner. His Human Photosynthesis course is presented as a 10-module, 20-hour programme that includes guided meditation, visualization, breath work and mind-mastery practices.

Festival organizers in Romania have described him as a holistic practitioner, researcher and author who spent more than a decade studying light synthesis and atmospheric changes in nature. At those events, his announced themes have included Energy Cultivation, Solar Power, Chi Kung, Breatharian Evolution and living off-grid.
