Retreat Itinerary 

Join us  at our exclusive 5-days sacred ancestral medicine retreat 

• There has never been a more poignant or necessary time 

• To refresh the mind, body, and spirit, 

• To reunite with the time-honoured traditions of medicine ceremonies, or 

• To reconnect with the 4 elements of the natural world 

• So that you can be reborn with the insights of true self-discovery and renewed purpose. 

• The Four Elements of Earth, Air, Fire and Water are not only the building blocks of life on our planet; they also unlock the unique wisdom to balance and heal the body and the mind. Your 5-day / 4-night retreat will teach you how to harness the power of the elements to create lasting and meaningful change. Breathwork, daily movement and meditation classes, nature walks, sound baths, light therapy, fire circles, psychedelic integration groups, as well as, deep, guided shamanic medicine ceremonies come together to create an unforgettable experience. 

*Please note that our retreats are mixed - both women and men are invited to attend.
