You are invited to surrender into the embrace of your own heart through the expansion of self-love. Sacred Self-Love is a daylight journey of opening your heart with Cacao Ceremony, Reiki Healing, Hot Springs, Self-Inquiry, Group Support, Mantra, and more.
This intimate daytime retreat will be held on a private desert mineral springs oasis. We will be incorporating the mineral hot springs and a cool mineral water lake as part of the experience. This land is truly special and holds a very sacred energy, full of wildlife, canopies of old-growth trees, and vibrating with love.
Sacred Self-Love is held as a ceremonial container, where we invite in the highest level of healing to your heart in sacred space. This retreat is full of heart-opening medicine of the highest vibration. You will be invited to learn how to truly love yourself, supported by Cacao medicine, supported by the sacred land, and supported by each other.
Cacao Medicine is a powerful facilitator for opening the heart and accessing your truth from a place of gentleness and compassion. Cacao Spirit helps us learn how to love ourselves more by inviting us to see what hides in our hearts that is in need of our attention and love. Cacao helps us to bring wholeness to our hearts, which strengthens our foundation of self-love and empowers us to walk in the world with purpose and authenticity guided by our radiant loving hearts.
We will begin our time together with Cacao Ceremony, inviting the spirit of Cacao to open our hearts and guide the journey into expansive healing throughout the day. Each participant will receive individual Reiki Healing, and in addition to group sharing and heart opening practices, you will have opportunity to privately connect with the land and all that dwells there.
This sacred retreat will help you open into the truth of your heart and learn how to love all aspects of who you are with unconditional love and compassion. In this safe space, you will be invited to acknowledge what you are needing to release to bring healing and expansion into your life and provide you with the tools to do so. You will be invited to set your intention for your path moving forward with a wide-open heart.
By working together with intention in sacred circle, great levels of heart expansion and healing are made possible. The power of our individual healing work becomes magnified and strengthened in a group container, making great transformation possible.
This immersion into the heart is for you if you are ready to take your healing journey to the next level, and expand into your most authentic radiant self.
