About this Retreat

Details of this retreat

Deep inside the coils of your subconscious lurks some old gunk that you may have long forgotten about - layers of unresolved trauma, pain, fear, shame, chronic stress, do's and dont's, hidden desires, unfulfilled needs, chronic anxieties, generational trauma, cultural trauma, thoughts of not being good enough, self-judgement, conditioning and who knows what else has all been deposited on the inside of these old coils...

These old coatings want to be cleaned out, so that you can life to your fullest potential and become the happiest version of yourself.

It's pretty much impossible to do that without cleaning your coils.

Some people call it shadow work, some call it spiritual work, some call it trauma work, we call it transformational work.

This work helps you reduce your ballast, the things you have been carrying around for years and decades. The stuff that makes you sad and depressed, anxious or insecure, addicted and unhappy. The stuff that may have long been forgotten, but makes you react in ways that make you wonder about yourself.

Why am I choosing these partners? Why do I feel so empty and disconnected? Why do I have these nightmares? Why can I not be happy? Why can't I make decisions? Why can't I perceive my intuition? Why do I get stressed so easily? Why do I not know what to do? Why am I always tired? Why do people always take advantage of me? Why am I burned out? Why am I never satisfied? and so on...

There is a gatekeeper in your brain that protects you from all these memories and their emotional overwhelm, let's call it your "protector".

Technically it is called the Amygdala. The Amygdala is in charge of protecting you, making sure you don't get emotionally overwhelmed, hurt, damaged, etc...

In a difficult (traumatic) situation, your amygdala gets activated and the higher processing centers of the brain tune down, so if you are in the midst of an emotionally stressful situation, your brain can't sort your memories right.

This can lead to what we call emotional charges - fragments of strong emotions and memories / scenes of your life charged with emotional overwhelm that can trigger you / make you relieve the experience countless times without any resolve or lead to avoidant behavior, which can numb and dull your life...

Imagine how it would feel like to reduce some of the weight of these...

And to gain clarity on others?

Understand, witness and see your past, relive scenes that originally gave you pain but without the actual pain?

Our transformational sessions allow your amygdala to actually be tuned down while the higher processing centers are online. Your heart opens up and your whole being is filled with unconditional love.

This allows you to revisit your past, relive your experiences and see things from a perspective of love and empathy. Having love and compassion for ourself and others is all we really need to heal.

Permission to be and feel loved.

Without judgement, shame, anxiety, distraction, fear, pain, shock and trauma...

Just love and acceptance. For yourself and others.

From a feeling of unconditional love and being whole.

When you are whole and nothing can hurt you, even just for the duration of a session, you can see things differently and reconfigure your memories and life stories differently.

You don't have to be the victim anymore.

You do not have to be resentful and angry forever.

You can let go and forgive yourself and others, so that your nervous system can finally relax and come back down to a place of rest and relaxation.

You will come out of these sessions changed, grown, more confident and full of love.

Your life will change, your surroundings will change and you will change.

Not that there is no work to do on your behalf, but our transformational catalysts make it easy for you to see beyond the problem, see the big picture, see a universe steeped in love and how you fit into that picture. See yourself and your story from a new, lighter perspective and feel the relief of the burdens coming off...

(We offer discounts for groups of 2-4 people, with each participant receiving a 1:1 session, per availability, max. No of participants is 4 at the moment. Please inquire for special requests.

Beautiful Experience
I had a beautiful experience in my session. I was given helpful recommendations on how best to prepare in the days leading up to and day of the event. The environment was very spacious, well organized, and super clean. I was made to feel safe, relaxed, and calm. A lot of care was taken to make sure I had all my questions answered and that I did not feel alone. The background music was very nice - it fit well with the atmosphere and helped usher me into a deeply contemplative space. I’m already looking forward to returning soon for another visit. I highly recommend this caring and intuitive group of healers to guide you on your own beautiful experience.
