      Special Features & Highlights

      Ancient Egyptians celebrated the cyclic seasons of the Earth, Moon, Sun and Stars in order to balance the internal polarities and illuminate the mind and body. Join Heather and Donny Regal on a sacred 15 day pilgrimage and experience the miracles and power of Ancient Egypt (Kemet) and deepen in the continuous expansion of your own spiritual journey.


      This year is an auspicious time to go on a path of self-discovery as the numerology for 2023 adds to a 7, signifying spiritual awakening and ascension. For Ancient Egyptians, 7 represents the collective consciousness of the divine netjer (divine power) Hathor (Het-Heru). The Hathors bring healing and pleasure to the world through love, beauty, sacred sound frequencies, music, dance, and nurturing.


      This 15-day journey to Ancient Egypt, the throat chakra of the planet, will include all of these experiences to support you in expanding into the fullness of your personal self-expression, gifts, and more.


      This year's October 26th to November 9th pilgrimage will also take place over the powerful October eclipse portal which signifies a call for balance, to become a whole, and to align our lives with that which we truly value. This is an auspicious time of renewal, cleansing, harmony, growth, and deep reflection of what truly serves your highest good and values.


      On the evening of the October 28th Lunar eclipse, participants will have the auspicious opportunity to partake in a private sound healing ceremony in the King’s Chamber of the Great Pyramid followed by a sharing circle and silent meditation time between the paws of the Sphinx.

      Known as the gateway to higher spiritual realms, receive divine transmissions as we experience the healing frequencies in the King’s Chamber of the Great Pyramid, meditate between the paws of the Sphinx, and sail from temple to temple for 9 days on the enchanting Nile river. Unravel the mysteries of Hathor’s Temple at Dendera, Osiris’s temple at Abydos, Sekhmet’s shrine in Karak, Luxor temple, and many more sacred sites. Throughout your trip, you will receive tools and interactive materials to support the empowerment of your spiritual unfoldment.


      If you feel called to connect with ancient Kemet in a sacred way then this intimate, luxurious and leisurely journey with a maximum of 12 participants may just be for you.  


      Reactivate your soul’s memory and use the Ancient teachings to navigate your Earthly mission.

      It was absolutely EPIC - ticked all the boxes I could have imagined and then some. Accommodation was amazing, the lovely garden that Heather & Donny live in is so wholesome, you feel like you are in your own little Oasis. Delicious breakfast served every morning, and YUM plant-based lunches. Honestly some of the recipes I still make at home (and definitely recommend Heather & Donny's recipe book for more). It really felt like I was coming home to family. The retreat itself was a wonderful experience. From the morning Yoga, Aerial Yoga and Sound Baths, to the evening Circles, Ceremonies and Sound Baths, it was an all-round incredible experience. I also have to point out that you won't experience a class like the ones with Heather & Donny anywhere else, as Donny plays live music while Heather teaches and guides you through the practice. An absolutely magical experience that makes each class as unique as the people within it. I also want to mention that there is plenty of free time to integrate the experiences and explore the island. During my entire stay with Heather & Donny I managed to get around Maui and see all the places I wanted (like Hana, Haleakala Volcano Crater, town, some beaches, etc.). I will definitely be back, and if you're thinking about heading there - I highly recommend it. If you're still reading this, make sure the thing you do after this is book your retreat (and tell me how it went!!). :)

      I had a great week with Heather and Donny. The meals were amazing, I actually purchased a cookbook at the end of the week so I can recreate some of my favorite meals and try some new ones at home! During my free time they offered a cold plunge, hot tub with clay and also had a sauna available. Free afternoons left me with time to explore the island a bit and Heather and Donny had plenty of recommendations! Would love to return one day.

      The retreat was beyond my expectations! I got from it more than I could expect. Infinite inspiration, lots of self-understanding and lots of love for me and my body. I already experience positive effects from it and will experience more in the next few months! I highly recommend it to everyone!
      By Nina K for 6 Days/5 Nights Dec. 11-16, 2023 YOGA & SOUND HEALING | Maui HI on Feb 16, 2024
      Thank you so much Nina for your beautiful testimonial. We are so happy that you received so much value out of our program and that two months later the transformation is still deepening for you! <3 xoxo

      This was a wonderful experience! Besides all the experiences an Egypt trip can offer, we had multiple private entrances to temples and the Great Pyramid along with meditations in sacred places that only this spiritual couple could offer. Mohammed is the best guide while also finding comfortable places for us to rest while sightseeing. The hotels are top notch, the boat was our floating oasis between activities and the food was great. I wish I could do this trip again!
      By Scot M for 15 Day Ancient Egypt Spiritual Pilgrimage on Feb 04, 2024
      We loved having you both on our pilgrimage! Thank you for bringing your sacred presence. Yes, come on another one! Please!
