A quest for deeper understanding of universal truth and spiritual perspectives is the energetic theme for 2023. Jumpstart your year with a retreat that will help you to masterfully seize the opportunity that lies ahead by preparing you with tools of self mastery. 

Venture to the lush tropical north shore of Maui for an intimate and expansive Mystical Alchemy experience at the Black Swan Temple, a safe space to rejuvenate your body, mind, and soul. Immerse yourself in a sacred space where you can commune with Nature, explore your deepest parts, let go of your limiting beliefs, and embrace the power and gifts you’ve always had within. 

This New Year’s retreat provides an opportunity for people to awaken, harness their innate gifts, and gain clarity about the path of their true north. Our intention is to help our guests deeply surrender to the small still voice within and acquire tools for self-mastery in order to connect more deeply with their highest calling and life’s mission.

This retreat is not just a simple vacation and quick escape from reality, rather we offer a powerful initiation that can quickly move you forward. Our program is curated to facilitate healing, transformation and empowerment through yoga, breath work, hammock yoga, sound healing, personal healing and coaching sessions, Earth altar rituals, and a delicious gourmet plant-based vegetarian diet.

Access Bars

The Bars is a healing modality that involves touching 32 energy points on the head. These points, also known as “bars”, store the electromagnetic component of all the thoughts, ideas, attitudes, and decisions that you have ever had about anything,  including your limiting beliefs, habits and ways of being. Your practitioner gently touches the points to release the stagnant energy so that you can recalibrate your thought patterns, and have the freedom that enables you to evolve into the greatest expression of your being. 

And Choose between:
