Example of what to expect:

Join us on the serene beachfront at 8:30 AM for a welcoming guided grounding meditation, setting the intention for a transformative journey ahead. As a group, we'll then transition to the second-floor sanctuary over-looking the water, where we'll settle in.

During this retreat, we will not only be exploring the intricate energy centers known as chakras and understanding how they affect our mind body and spirit but will be immersed in exploring, grow and shifting any stuck energy allowing release, regulation and reconnecting to all the parts of us anchoring ourselves back home to our embodied Self.

Through various practices, including sound healing, somatic exercises and movement including gentle yoga, utilizing the breath, essential oils, and energy work, we'll create a nurturing space for these vital aspects of our being.

This exploration extends to understanding how our experiences and traumas can influence our nervous system responses and trigger reactions. By gaining insight into the interplay between our chakras and nervous system, particularly the connection with the vagus nerve, we'll embark on a journey toward profound healing, improved relationship with all parts of who we are, the self and others and ultimately standing within inner peace.

Props will be provided for all participants, including yoga mats, blankets, two blocks, and a bolster. However, if you prefer to bring your own props, you're more than welcome to do so.

As a special gift, each participant will receive a welcome intention bag, filled with personalized tokens to accompany them on their unique path of self-discovery and growth throughout the retreat.
