Join us for a special journey where we’ll uncover the truth of our identity and embrace our own unique power. The Journey of the Gift Seeds will reveal our true inheritance - gifts received at birth as well as those passed down from generation to generation by our families, ancestors, and culture. As we are guided through this journey, we’ll see the natural emergence of our life purpose and the yearnings of our hearts.

Our inheritance is like a lost treasure waiting to be discovered. Recognizing this inner power opens new vistas, allowing us to see things we never saw before, ignite hope, and unlock new potential in our lives.

This ceremonial retreat will help you understand who you are uniquely here to Be and what you are uniquely here to Do.

Through guided visualizations, meditations, music, time in nature and contemplations in the labyrinth, you will be led through various embodiment activities within sacred spaces to help you connect with your unique gifts. During our time timing together, you will open these Doorways:

  • Discover the Gift Seeds of your true nature

  • Experience a new and embodied view of your unique potential

  • Learn how to activate your core capacities

  • Acquire practices to help you cultivate those seeds deep inside yourself and to use them in your daily life

What’s included:

  • A one day guided experience in the beauty of nature

  • Snacks, beverages and lunch
