About the Retreat

Learning the way of the heart and connecting to your heart consciousness to release separation, fear, false beliefs, and conditioning is the key to inner peace, health, and abundance. This is a whole new discovery of self and realization to the love and light that you are and the magic it brings to your life.

Guided mediation, sound healing, sacred ceremonies, energy work, and yoga will assist in the release of energies to feel unconditional love. Bringing forth the balance of divine feminine and divine masculine energies to unite within oneself is the way to unity consciousness. Participants will leave empowered open-hearted and filled with Faith Love and Trust for their Journey.
