SOUL RETRIEVAL to Debut at Philadelphia Fringe Festival
Philadelphia Inquirer favorite Paqo Tom blends indigenous healing practices with breath work and soundscapes.
This September, Paqo Tom will present "Soul Retrieval" (at 1518 Walnut Street, Philadelphia,) as part of the 2026 Philadelphia Fringe Festival. Running for a limited engagement September 9-10 & 24, 2026, this immersive event invites attendees into a deep, inward process designed to promote whole-person wellness and lasting transformation. Each date offers reservations for 5:30pm and 7:30pm.
'When We Are Whole, We Can Heal Wholly' In an era marked by persistent stress and emotional exhaustion, Paqo Tom is excited to bring 'Soul Retrieval' and its exploration of mental health by targeting a commonly shared pervasive sense of incompleteness. It operates on the principle that our emotional, physical, and mental well-being are all deeply interconnected.
Unlike conventional therapy models that focus primarily on reducing surface symptoms like anxiety, trauma, and burnout, Paqo Tom's work asks a fundamentally different question: What is the underlying imbalance that created those symptoms in the first place?
"Soul Retrieval" offers a grounded, heart-centered alternative to temporary relief, focusing instead on clearing the underlying source to create profound, lasting realignment across emotional, energetic, spiritual, and physical levels.
