About this trip

In this third offering, WISDOM, we will look inward to reclaim the Source of our beingness and the mysterious and infinite thread that binds each of us to the other in grace. 


“Who looks outside, dreams. Who looks inside, awakens.” Carl Jung


Join me for a weekend where we will explore our relationship with the Divine and experience the holy sense of being within ourselves, each other, and nature. Here we will cultivate spiritual wisdom that comes when we transcend the pull of the ego and are open to spiritual perspective, which is infinite and limitless. 


Through yoga, meditation, pranayama, journal writing, reflection, walks in nature, and restorative yoga we will ground, center, expand our heart’s capacity for truth and love, and open ourselves to the Divine within as the compass that leads us into purpose.  


Together we will:  

  • See a bigger spiritual picture to why things happen as they have
  • Trust inner guidance and intuitive knowing
  • Take accountability for choices and actions 
  • Expand your spiritual perspective
  • Explore your purpose to being
  • Surrender to the power of your own unique relationship to God 
  • Understand the interdependence between all souls and the necessity for action to create lasting change  

Wisdom is the whisper from God, ignited in our soul, activated through our body, and made manifest through choice. Choose well, this one life. Live your truth and act through love, and your wisdom will be known through the peace it creates. 

COVID-19

We can barely wait to welcome you back for community, delicious vegan food, hiking, and – of course – Class!  We’ve cut our attendance by six people for each retreat to allow more space in the yoga room.


The health and safety of our guests, staff, and performers are paramount in these (still) uncertain times. To attend any retreat, we require that all guests provide proof of full vaccination against COVID-19. Our staff and performers will also follow this protocol, and we encourage you to get vaccinated if possible.


We must hold to our policy for the safety of all people vaccinated and unvaccinated that we require vaccination to attend. Until we know more and the variants have slowed down, we have to stick to this, but it does not mean that this will always be our policy in the future. We're taking things day by day right now.


We will not require that guests wear masks indoors (in bedrooms and yoga room), but we honor and respect each individual's need to feel safe while on the property. If you have any hesitation to join us for this retreat, we recommend you wait until one of our future retreats in 2023. 


Most beds in shared bedrooms have 3 feet between each bed. Yoga mats might be only 1-2 feet spaced out. We will keep windows and doors open during class to allow for proper circulation. Meals will be served outdoors.


We appreciate your cooperation and your support. Looking forward to celebrating our next chapter together safely! 💫

Freshly Prepared 100% Vegan Meals Daily

Ali Lafayette will be our private chef for the weekend, preparing delicious vegan and organic meals with fresh ingredients. 


Ali is currently working as a private chef and health-based retreat chef, specializing in simple, nutritious, and delicious food designed to nurture and energize clients undergoing trainings and other forms of self-optimization. 


Her specialties are accommodating and adapting for a multitude of dietary restrictions, allergies, and health concerns, including but not limited to; vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, sugar-free, celiac, low-acid, clean eating, whole-30, ketogenic, and Ayurvedic. 


Ali’s passion for food as a health and nutrition tool has led her to become a certified nutritionist, and she has several years of experience developing meal prep programs for clients suffering from auto-immune disorders and other food-related health issues. 


Ali’s personal food philosophy focuses on the idea that food is fuel and medicine for the body, but that healthy food can also be decadent and delicious. 


“Food should be Delicious: Good food can be an incredible sensory experience! Just because it's good for your body doesn't mean it has to be boring and bland. 


Food Should be Simple: Real ingredients, and not too many of them. Local and Seasonal; humane and organic. All things you can pronounce and recognize. 


Food Should be Healthy: Food is fuel and medicine for our body, it keeps us running at the top of our potential. Low to zero sugars, simple carbohydrates, and no processed chemical ingredients.”

Things to know

📍 Address to the property will be given the week before the retreat starts.


👉  Substance-free retreat

A substance-free environment is one in which all guests agree to keep their space free from substances at all times. Substances are defined to include alcohol, cigarettes, other smoking materials, and illicit and illegal drugs.


👉  Close shared spaces

This is a very communal retreat with shared bedrooms and shared bathrooms. Some beds may only be 3 feet apart from each other. If for any reason, you do not feel safe being in such close quarters with other guests due to concerns about Covid-19,  it's best not to join this trip and wait until a time that feels best for you. We will be doing many more of these next year. 

Activities

On one of the afternoons, we will hike to a beautiful labyrinth overlooking the pacific ocean, where we will do an intention-setting meditation and ritual blessing.


There will be plenty of time between sessions to relax and connect with yourself, each other, and the land. Perched on 10 acres, atop a remote valley with beautiful views of the Santa Monica mountains, you can find yourself chilling in the jacuzzi or cedar sauna, swimming in the lap pool, or dunking in the cold plunge. There are also many places for quiet time like the sun patios or cozy up to the large living room fireplace in the 1920s Spanish Mission-style house. 


If you feel like an adventure on your own, there are gorgeous hiking trails nearby, and the Pacific Ocean is only 20 minutes away. Or take a drive into town where you can visit all the local shops and artisans as well as wellness services like acupuncture, massage, and facials. 

Cancellation Policy

Reviews

Practicing with Seane at her retreat was such a gift and felt so nourishing for my body, mind, heart and soul. This was my second retreat in Topanga and it was simply the best, as always. I’ve practiced for many years and with many teachers but there’s something really special that happens with Seane. She is so nurturing, loving, caring and real which creates an experience that feels so safe and grounding. It is the ultimate release and reset…I feel renewed! Thank you Seane and Jess!

Seanne's Chakra Immersion Retreat is a wonderful yoga retreat. As a teacher, Seanne is unparalleled; she tells stories and lectures with wit and wry humor, making the lessons seem both mystical and approachable at the same time. In leading class, her queueing is like a mother's embrace: protective, supportive, and always full of care. Jessica, Seanne's right-hand-woman, is on hand for any and all things, large and small, and makes the retreat a true escape from the mundanities of the world. The space is wonderful, with great amenities; in the heat, I especially recommend the sauna and cold plunge (counter-intuitive, but it works). Our group was wonderful, supportive and open; they taught me a lot. I was not surprised to learn that many of our group choose to come back time and time again. Finally, the food is delicious, always fresh, tasty, filling and nourishing. All in all, it's a week of of true cleansing; both spiritual and physical; I cannot recommend it highly enough.
