Details

The Journey of the Goddess is a devotional retreat — an intimate initiation into the living presence of the Divine Feminine, held in the heart of the Yucatan jungle. This is not a wellness retreat in the conventional sense. It is a sacred gathering of ten people ready to go beyond technique and theory, into genuine communion with the Goddess in Her three faces: the Maiden, the Mother, and the Wise One. This space welcomes all who feel called to the path of the Goddess — women, nonbinary, gender nonconforming, and trans individuals are warmly welcome. The call of the Goddess does not discriminate by body or identity. Each day follows a sacred rhythm of somatic morning practices, midday immersions in the natural and sacred sites of Yucatan, and evening ritual and ceremony. The land itself is part of the medicine — the jungle, the cenotes, the ancient Mayan earth that holds millennia of wisdom. This space is designed for those who have already begun their inner journey and are ready to go deeper. It is trauma-informed, inclusive, and held with over eight years of experience facilitating sacred work internationally.

Meals at Shambalanté are vegetarian, freshly prepared, and served communally three times a day with an additional snack.

Schedule

The retreat follows a daily rhythm of morning somatic practice, midday immersion, and evening ritual and ceremony. Mornings begin with embodied feminine practices to reconnect with the body and the energy of the Goddess we are working with that day. These include breathwork, movement, and jade egg practices — physical or energetic depending on each participant's comfort and experience. Midday sessions include teachings, embodied practices, and sacred excursions to cenotes and natural sites in Yucatan. These outings are woven into the program as living ceremonies rather than tourist activities. Evenings are devoted to ritual, Goddess invocation, sisterhood circles, and integration practices. Each evening deepens the devotional work of the day. The overall arc of the retreat follows the path of Inanna — moving through the three faces of the Goddess: the Maiden on Day 2, the Mother on Day 3, and the Wise One on Day 4. Day 1 is sacred opening and Day 4 closes with an integration and gratitude ceremony. Free time is woven throughout the retreat intentionally, allowing participants to rest, integrate, and connect with the land at their own pace.

Testimonials

info

Sasha is an amazing sacred practitioner, coach, and tarot reader. She is very profound in the depth of her work. She is deeply loving and caring and holds deep ancestral wisdom and magic. I truly recommend her to everyone!

Nadia Lune, Canada

Sasha is a true mystic. A medicine woman. I have sought Sasha’s guidance since 2018. Her Tarot journey readings as well as group tarot and when I need an encouraging voice to carry on my creative path. These have made an impact on my career. Her guidance has helped me in relationships, grief and career growth. I refer clients to her for her understanding of trauma, her techniques and understanding of greater systems without overwhelming the coachee. I only know a handful of coaches I would trust to be so patient and tuned in to clients without ego, and Sasha is at the top. There is also so much laughter and movement in sessions with her. She blends dark and light, grace and action soooo beautifully that I always take inspired action after a session with her. If you want something, really want something… It would be a mistake not to hire her. She has something that can not be taught, but you will experience in the first moments with her.

Gina Catherine, USA

Sasha holds herself with such love, patience, and clarity, and she has held me in the same way. Whether in tarot readings, ceremony, training, or groups, I always feel like I learn so much from her while still feeling encouraged to share what I know in mutual learning and exchange. Highly recommend working with her!
