Details

Set amidst the breathtaking landscapes of Northern California, Mt. Shasta stands as a luminous symbol of spiritual awakening and sacred connection. ​ Revered as one of the Earth’s most powerful energy centers, this majestic mountain has long been a place where the divine meets the earthly. Our women’s retreat harnesses Mt. Shasta's profound mystical qualities to awaken the radiant power of the divine feminine within. In this sacred space, where ancient forests whisper their secrets and crystal-clear streams mirror the sky, we will gather as a circle of women to honor the sacred feminine. Through transformative rituals, deep connection, and heart-centered practices, we’ll nurture our inner light and celebrate the creative, intuitive, and nurturing energies that define us. This retreat is an invitation to align with the wisdom of the divine feminine and the cosmic energies of Mt. Shasta, creating a powerful experience of renewal, sisterhood, and spiritual empowerment.

At our retreat, every meal is a celebration of the season’s bounty. Imagine: vibrant garden salads with sprouted seeds, comforting homemade soups, and rustic dishes like cilantro lime chicken tacos on handmade cassava tortillas. Our menus embrace locally sourced, organic ingredients, offering both meat and vegetarian options. Think: herbed lamb patties, quinoa pilaf, and dal, all infused with fresh herbs and seasonal produce. Sweet treats like Maple Rose Cardamom Cookies and Peach Crisp with fresh whipped cream are crafted to delight the senses. Every meal is designed to ground, uplift, and support your journey of transformation, nourishing you from the inside out.

Schedule

During the retreat, we begin each day with a guided transformational practice, such as breathwork, kundalini yoga, or a somatic dance experience—awakening your body and spirit to the day’s energies. We serve nourishing, organic meals daily to ground you and prepare you for the day’s journey. Each day, we venture out to one or two powerful sacred sites, where we’ll tune in to the wisdom and energy of the land, receiving teachings and transmissions that support your path. Engage in personal rituals and guided inquiries daily to deepen your connection and expand your awareness, attuning to the magic of the place and the transformational field we’re creating together. Lunch follows, picnic-style. In the evening, we return to the Anna House for a relaxing dinner, followed by gentle integration practices—ceremonies, sharing circles, or guided meditations—to weave the day’s experiences into your being. After a day's worth of activities, settle into the stillness of the evening, preparing to dream and integrate as the cycle continues.

Testimonials

“I came to the retreat seeking adventure travel with a deeper experience. Boy did Alana deliver! I considered myself to someone that is not spiritual or religious - or at least I've been seeking to understand the difference between spirituality and how it's different than religion. I learned SO MUCH and especially how to remove those labels. My eyes were opened to a category of people that are doing deeper energy work and what that means. I feel I listen to my intuition more consciously. Alana is an absolute badass! She is an incredibly special soul and you know it the moment you meet her. She leads with huge amounts of Joy, deep knowledge and beautiful grace. She sees and includes everyone. Alana has an ability to connect to you instantly. She has a warm guiding style and presence that feels safe. Alana also brings the fun! The spontaneous dance parties and kick ass playlists were a blast! The conversation was approachable and lively. I felt that I could experience in my own style and everyone is welcome.

"I would say that my life before the Galactic Goddess retreat was a little stuck and "lost in commute" ... Going through the daily motions of caretaking without thinking too much of it. After the retreat, I feel more relaxed and present in my day to day. I am observing myself and patterns through a new scope and it's transformative. I think the biggest lesson I gained from this experience is allowing others to be "in process" or in pain... and not having to swoop in and "save" them. I am learning to allow for the discomfort without having to "fix". I also feel more IN MY POWER and in touch with my needs.

Mackenzie Miller, USA

"The Galactic Goddess retreat is a testament to meticulous craftsmanship, with every element painstakingly tailored to create a seamless and enchanting experience. From the selection of awe-inspiring venues and sacred temples to the multifaceted activations, delectable culinary delights, and the incredible companions who've shared this transformative journey, every thread of this tapestry is delicately woven to form an intricate whole. In this nurturing environment, I've found it impossible to dissect any single aspect of the retreat, for they are all interlinked by an enchanting, invisible, golden thread. This journey has been a voyage of profound intention, where each ceremony serves as a vital stepping stone along the path to reclaiming my inner strength and unlocking the innate gifts that reside within me. Each moment, imbued with love and grace, has allowed me to delve into the depths of my own capabilities, revealing boundless potential now within my grasp."

Guest requirements

  • This retreat welcomes women from ages 21 to 70 who are ready to embrace transformation, adventure, and connection with nature. A moderate level of fitness is required for the hiking and exploration we’ll do, so please ensure you’re comfortable with physical movement and being on your feet in nature. Please note that while I am a trained psychotherapist, this is not a therapy retreat. We will be engaging in deep personal practices, and it’s important that you’re in a stable emotional and mental state and able to self-regulate if challenging emotions arise. If you currently have a mental health diagnosis or feel emotionally unstable, this retreat may not be the right fit at this time.
