Golden Essence Retreat: Awaken and Ground the Wisdom within.
Immerse yourself in your intrinsic nature, that indispensable quality of YOU that determines your true character - your ESSENCE. This retreat is designed for diving in, discovering, and exploring yourself; returning to life grounded in your golden essence. You’ll come away revitalized, nourished, and ready to walk your own wisdom path with confidence and full trust in yourself.
With 3 experienced facilitators and professional space-holders, you will feel revitalized, relaxed and held like never before on this weekend retreat. Come connect with the deepest parts of yourself and with other heart-centered souls in a gorgeous, luxurious home. Explore and forest-bathe in Virginia’s lush landscape, on a private property extending 70 acres with breathtaking views and private access to forest, hills, and the Potomac River. Replenish your beautiful energy by deeply grounding into natural beauty and accessing your own natural wisdom intelligence. The house is full of amenities for your full relaxation - hot tub, fire pits, back porch swing, wading in the river, hiking trails throughout the wooded property, outdoor dining and lots and lots of space in this 8000-square-foot home.
You will be supported with nourishing, delicious, locally-sourced meals created and provided by our soul-aligned chef Bailey McAvenia - an artist with food, experienced in catering wellness retreats, and a certified transformational energy coach - you will be nurtured mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
We gather in ceremony to laugh, play, dance, and sing by the fire. Our hostess Rhiannon, an experienced cacao ceremony facilitator and medicine musician, will have us activating our voices inside and out.
We heal, transform, and transmute through mindfulness practices like yoga, meditation, and earth medicines. Our hostess, Melissa, an experienced facilitator of plant medicine journeys will provide everything you need on your healing or transformational journey. This powerful experience will be held in a sacred ceremony and will be optional (all the tools will be provided to you so you can feel empowered with our in-person assistance or for yourself in the future). Information about microdosing will be provided along with the tools you’ll need to begin your journey. You may choose to microdose or join the circle for mild to medium psilo journey.
Integration is key and will be provided during the retreat and after. We continue to support you individually and through our group sharing.
