Details
What you WILL RECEIVE INTERNALLY: Daily Movement & Rest Practices Gentle yoga, restorative sequences, and embodied movement designed to soothe the nervous system—not override it. Transformational Breathwork + Sound Breath practices that quiet mental noise, release stored tension, and reconnect you to the present moment. Some sessions may feel emotional. Some peaceful. Some are quietly profound. All are supported. Meditation & Yoga Nidra Deep rest that goes beyond sleep—allowing your system to reset and integrate. Nature & Integration Time Hiking, journaling, spacious afternoons, and moments of silence to let insights land. Cacao & Fire Ceremony A closing ritual to honor what’s ready to be released—and what wants to rise next. We work with ceremonial cacao, paired with intentional fire ritual to metabolize old stories and anchor new ones. Optional 1:1 Sessions Private healing, bodywork, or integration sessions available at an additional cost. Nourishment That Feels Like Care All meals are chef-prepared (ayurvedic trained chef), seasonal, and deeply nourishing—designed to support digestion, energy, and emotional balance. Food here isn’t restrictive or performative. It’s grounding. Beautiful. Satisfying. Your Stay • Beautiful double-occupancy accommodations (2 per room) • Pool, infrared sauna, and hot tub • Quiet desert setting designed for nervous system repair • Small group (max 10 guests) for intimacy and personalized care This is not a crowded retreat. It’s a carefully held experience. What You’ll Leave With Not a “new version” of yourself. But a truer one. • More internal spaciousness • A softer relationship with your body • Tools to regulate instead of override • Clearer emotional boundaries • A lived sense of worth—not a concept Self-love stops being something you try to practice. It becomes something you live from. An Invitation If something in you softened while reading this… That’s not a coincidence. It’s recognition. You don’t have to earn rest. You don’t have to wait to be worthy. You don’t have to do this alone. Your spot is intentionally limited. When the group is complete, registration closes. Reserve your place and give yourself something real to come home to.
