the mood board

Join us for a multi-sensory Spring retreat designed to help you reset, reflect, and reconnect. Beginning with meditation and intention-setting, we’ll move into a cacao ceremony, guided journaling, and a deeply immersive sound journey. The evening closes with nourishing bites and meaningful connection, leaving you grounded, inspired, and aligned for the season ahead.
The Experience
A Journey in Five Phases
The Welcome
Shake off the last of the winter dust as we transition into a new season. We’ll begin by clearing stagnant energy, followed by a grounding meditation to plant your personal intentions for this Spring retreat. To settle into the space, we’ll use the gentle vibration of humming to soothe the nervous system and open the heart.A soft, intentional beginning to your seasonal renewal.
Cacao Reflections
We then welcome and sip a delicious cup Ceremonial Cacao infused with Rose and Saffron to open the heart, followed by a quiet session of journalling to anchor your personal intentions. We will then open up a sharing circle, offering a safe container to speak our truths and be heard.
Your journey begins
Immerse yourself in a sensory journey designed to quiet the mind and awaken the spirit. We will move through layers of meditative stillness, guided by the healing power of sound therapy of a multitude of instruments accompanied by Maria and Kim's voices and the subtle magic of aromatherapy. To integrate the experience, we’ll lift our collective vibration through sacred singing (1-2 songs) followed by a second round of journalling and sharing in pairs.
Bites & Connection
The journey continues in the lounge. Transition from the ceremonial space into one of connection and community. We’ll gather for some nourishing bites and mingles, providing the perfect relaxed atmosphere to share reflections and enjoy each other's company.
The Return
To conclude our time together, we’ll gather for a final closing of the space to ground our shared energy. As you depart, you’ll receive a curated goodie bag featuring hand-picked treats and reflective prompts to help you continue your journey at home.
