Stephanie's knowledge, guidance, and support opened awareness that led to new levels of insight.

This is my thrid Retreat with Stephanie and not my last. Her guidance and teaching is always exeptional and most importantly embodied. It's so rare these days to find teachers who live their teaching, so in that way Stephanie is the REAL DEAL. May everyone find a mentor has encouraging and motherly has her. Until the next adventure.... thank you! xxx

This was my second time going and I had an amazing time each year. The mountains, Stephanie's teachings and guidance, plus Alex's support is the perfect blend. Plus, the community of other women on a similar path. I found both the backpacking and yogic teachings to be beginner-friendly. Stephanie is kind and nurturing. The itinerary is flexible and Stephanie adapts to the needs of the group. It's a wonderful pause on day-to-day life and I hope to be able to keep attending. Jai Ma!

This trip was amazing on all levels - the people, the scenery, the loving teaching of the goddess traditions and the nurturing guidance. I loved it and can't wait to do another! A lot of this was new to me - I am not an avid back packer or meditator but that was okay. I felt comfortable asking questions and for help when needed and Stephanie, Alex, and everyone were wonderful and open. I can't wait to do more and am excited about my practice. It was so lovely. Thank you! :)

I knew I needed to go on this yatra when I first read about it. The journey was everything I’d hoped for and more. Stephanie and Ganga Devi provided a gentle introduction to navigating the cultural waters of India, and their embodied Devi wisdom permeated every aspect of the trip, from dance to yoga, sightseeing and train travel. Despite the group speaking two different languages (English and Portuguese), love permeated all interactions and I’ll always cherish the connections made. The sites visited were fantastic; yogini temples were 🔥🔥🔥. All in all it was amazing. Thank you Mountain Shakti and Ganga ❤️❤️❤️!
