Gather around for 4-days & 3-nights in the sacred Ojai Valley with Loren  & Katelyn and an intimate group.

With everything going on, there is nothing more important than learning how to tune in with your body—& devoting time to daily practices of healing connection to ourselves & connection with each other. This healing weekend retreat will offer you nourishing yoga, morning practices, sacred circles, meditations, & guided journeys with sound, cacao and community. Plus, a sacred fire pit & hot tub!

We'll gather for a long weekend of shared practice in the magical land of Ojai surrounded by an energy vortex and abundance of healing properties. Each day there will be free time to wander about and explore the magic of Ojai Valley. We encourage you to take walks, separate from our hikes, sit outside in the crisp sunshine and find relaxation in Ojai Valley's majestic scenery.

Loren Lotus & Katelyn Means will be your hosts for the weekend to share their knowledge and passion of Yoga & sacred practices.

Meet Loren Lotus

Your host Loren Lotus has hosted over 15 retreats around the world with Lotus Retreats! She's a passionate yogi, facilitator and event organizer who puts her entire heart and soul into curating spaces for community to gather. Loren will be sharing daily Yoga classes to get into our bodies, clear energy and make space for new wisdom to be shared. She is also an avid Kirtan singer and will be sharing the medicine of music, movement & meditation throughout the weekend. 

Meet Katelyn Means

Katelyn's classes are known for the medicine that they provide: Yoga Alchemy. A nervous system reset. An aligned, intentional flow with a side of dance medicine & inner child play. Here we detoxify & purify our minds, our spirit, our essence. Here we arrive fully in truth as ourselves... & that is far more than enough. With a Doctorate in Physical Therapy, Reiki Attunement & Yoga Certification, Katelyn carries an extensive knowledge of the physical, spiritual & energetic bodies.

Daily Yoga classes with dynamic movements, meditations and music will be offered to get our bodies grooving and flowing in a healthy manner. We'll use mornings for Vinyasa flows and evenings for Restorative Yin. Evenings will also be accompanied by sound healing & sacred Cacao ceremony. 

Soundhealing; 

Ancient sound healing has been used for many centuries through the creation of musical melodies that elevate and activate the chakra systems in the body. Similar to the sun, crystal singing bowls carry and emit a life force energy that sparks cellular change and light absorption of our DNA, on a molecular level. From this high vibrational space, true healing and expansion occur, allowing for personal awakening & elevation of the soul. Welcome to ultimate euphoria. High vibrational sounds from 7 chakra aligned, 99.9% pure quartz crystal bowls & other sound healing elements will be played allowing for a sacred, healing space.

Cacao Ceremony; 

We'll sip yummy, sacred Cacao, fresh from Lake Atitlan, cleanse our energies from whatever needs to be released and set strong, heartfelt intentions & prayers for the coming year ahead. When we gather in sacred ceremonies, we set a space for healing, prayer & expression through intention setting, devotional chanting, dancing & a safe container to love & share yourself. We will be using this sacred plant as a catalyst for tapping into creative expression through movement and mantra as a source of connection to ourselves, our community & spirit within.
