Spring Equinox Weekend Retreat

The Spring Equinox is a very special time that represents renewal, growth, possibility, and expansion as we move into the warmer months ahead.  It is a great time to plant seeds for the future, whether they be a special project, a new intention, a realignment of your health and well-being, or simply to recharge.  

The weekend will be a series of guided meditations and activations designed to support you in manifesting your intentions whether they be for inner peace, vibrant health, abundance, stronger relationships, World Peace, etc.    As we come together as a group, our intentions become a collective intention that can be a conduit to serve the greater good of humanity and the planet.   We will spend time in contemplation, intention setting, and inner exploration to create a powerful vortex filled with the greatest possibilities for all.   As we do this work together, we create a positive impact on the entire planet. 

We will be spending time in nature, with the trees, water, and land sharing indigenous teachings to create offerings for the Earth through sacred ceremonies known as ‘Pagamentos’.   

Doing this work in a group helps solidify and strengthen our collective intentions.   Come, create, play, and celebrate what you are being called to bring forth in the world.

This retreat is facilitated by Denise and Michael
