This healing retreat is a calling to purify the wounded feminine patterns, we as women have been conditioned to collectively carry in our bodies. These patriarchal patterns can sometimes show up as issues with mother or mothering, excess striving to succeed, issues with body-image, internalized shame around pleasure & sexuality, blockages in the voice, and authentic communication.
We heal when:
-we allow ourselves to rest, and to live from our natural internal rhythms
-we practice trusting the flow of our lives in accordance with the divine forces in the universe, here to support us on our human journey
-we pause to remember our connection to the Divine Mother, who animates all living things, and resides in our hearts.
-we open to receive her unconditional, boundless love and allow it to purify our hearts, minds and bodies.
- we let go and purify the patterns of patriarchy held in our cellular structure, and return to our wildest expression as women to live more fully, from an embodied sense of freedom.
This is our sacred practice. ARE YOU READY TO:
- Immerse yourself in the most pristine natural environment to support your healing and restoration?
- Experience authentic shamanic healing rituals to support you in letting go of patterns that hold you back from living your most fully expressed, joy-filled life?

You'll be initiated by a community of women who hold a vision for your most wild, present, fully-expressed, and spiritually awakened version of yourself.
Fully immersed in nature, this purification of mind-body-spirit, will awaken and deepen your connection to Self, helping you to remember your conscious connection to the Pachamama within you.
Imagine waking up each morning, in the most luxurious bed, listening to the sounds of the birds and the river flowing down the mountain below. Slowly rising, you’ll enjoy a beautiful herbal tea, and then take a mindful walk down the tree lined path to the our sacred sanctuary, for our morning practice of somatic experiencing meditation and earth medicine rituals.
Our week will unfold in alignment with a nourishing rhythm of vital plant-based gourmet meals, shamanic healing ceremonies, wisdom circles, community ritual, free time for spa therapies, and rest and rejuvenation by the mineral pool and ozone hot tub. This experience is curated to be the most restorative balance of personal time, community time, and sacred time.
In this collective container, together we will practice the science and art of co-regulation, and divine feminine liberation. You'll be held, supported, and encouraged to express your most wild and true expression, to come home to yourself, and to return to the arms of the Pachamama.
