On this retreat, we will explore the critical elements of connection: Self, Source, and Safety.
Connection is a universal need within all of us, and alchemy is the seemingly magical process of transformation, creation, or combination.
Ubud, Bali • Aug 30 – Sept 6, 2023
Alchemy of Connection: Self - Source - Safety
Self: Being able to connect to our bodies, breath, values, spirit and beliefs.
Source: Be it God, Buddha, Allah, Jesus, Mother Nature, Universe, or Divine Connection and Energy. Source is about being able to connect to a power greater than ourselves to ground the energy of living. Cultivating the sacred space within us that allows a clear connection to the Source to find universal meaning and divinity.
Safety: This is the connection to all things that allows us to face life on life’s terms. To rise above, transcend, evolve, and show up authentically in all areas of our lives. The result of connection to Self and Source is Safety.
How We Do It:
The deepest connection we can have with ourselves is in our breath. You will be guided into your body, deeper into self inquiry to allow you to get in touch with your center, your truth. During the work, you will receive energetic healing and body work to allow yourself to shift and move so that you may find internal stillness. We will drop into our bodies, we will play, we will laugh, we will process emotions – we will take up space – and we will be supported by each other, and learn to resource and support ourselves in a whole new way.
We will use these techniques to shift into a state that allows us to challenge the way we think and perceive our selves and others. Reframing the old limiting beliefs and fears that have held our minds and hearts hostage.
Bali is on just about everyone’s bucket list destination. We will hike, bike ride, and explore the jungle. We will jump into waterfalls. Take sound bath healing sessions in ancient temples and sink into a deeper state of awareness. Adventure gives us the unique practice of courage, self reliance, and curiosity.
You will sit in ancient temples, you will meditate with your ancestors: and come to hold the stories and the pain they carried, and you will surrender deeply to the transformation that ends generations of trauma.
Meditation is when we listen to Source, Prayer is when we talk to Source.
Integrated practices make our connection to Source more real and tangible. We will not prescribe any particular method- we will share our prayers- we will listen to yours- and we will pray together in a variety of ways including: chanting, prayers from various religions, song, dance, and ritual.
While there are techniques backed by science, the breathwork and the personal development tools you will receive on this retreat – will only work if you work them. You will have the opportunity to integrate your practices and develop your rituals daily before you head home so that you can bring new tools that provide freedom into your daily life.
We are biologically wired for connection. We need it! The past several years have challenged our community, globally. Social isolation has significantly impacted us as a whole. Purpose and meaning come from our ability to connect to ourselves, each other and something greater. Here we tap into the magic of authentic expression and vulnerable connection. Pulling off the masks that have kept you from the very thing you are yearning for.
You will be one of 15 women on this journey, in a jungle in Bali. There is a divine calling to the very specific humans that end up here together. And we can not wait to support you on your healing journey.
