Celebration of the Elements

Monterey Bay, CA
Sept 20-25, 2024

Anything is possible!

Will you allow yourself to rise into your life, like never before?

And will you allow yourself to burn through any fears
or past ancestral wounding as you rise?

The answer is YES.

You will and you can.

Seeking a retreat to nourish your mind, body and soul?

Join us for five days of relaxation, inspiration and transformation!

This year’s retreat will be tailored to invoke the sense of play in each of us and have a strong focus on the creation of LIFE, LOVE, KNOWLEDGE and WISDOM as well as the frequencies of the planet VENUS.

  • We will focus on what is ahead, not on what is behind us.

  • We will anchor HEALING and LOVE within ourselves and send it throughout the planet to counteract the world's current gut-wrenching devastation and loss.

  • Collectively, we will plant seeds for the new cycle ahead to grow love back into our world.

We will gather together each morning for the day’s activities, including:

  • Lunch and dinner served buffet-style lovingly prepared by our own private chef.

  • Spectacular sunsets over the Monterey Bay await us at sundown followed by an evening ceremony each day.

Relax during moments of free time if you want to enjoy some fun in the sun!

  • BEACH

  • HOT TUB WITH OUTDOOR SHOWER

  • BOCCE BALL COURT

  • TRAMPOLINE

  • ENJOY PLENTY OF SPACE INSIDE AND OUTSIDE

Anything is possible!

It will unfold magically for us as we harness the elements of Water, Fire, Air and Earth and the four planes of manifestation – Physical, Mental, Emotional and Spiritual. We might hike in the Redwood Forest, dance and sing around the fire pit or fly kites by the ocean. As we come back into balance, our world will begin to come back into balance. Together, we will leave the retreat inspired to act from a newly upgraded focus with a renewed spirit of adventure, making us hard workers for divine creation.
