Nourish Your Heart: A Day Retreat for Renewal & Connection in Vancouver

This 1-day experience is a journey into the depths of your heart to explore the barriers keeping you from feeling safe to connect with the world as your beautiful, authentic, wild self.

If you are feeling burnt out, disconnected from yourself and others, distanced from your partner, or lacking direction on your life path, get ready for a day of energy healing, nervous system rewiring, movement, group reflection, and powerful manifestation.

Blending the power and magic of Tantric Practice, Somatic Healing, Attachment Science, Yoga, and Cacao Plant Medicine, this retreat will help you feel safe in your body and authenticity, heal your fears of vulnerability, embrace your sensuality, and ignite your relationships with more fire, excitement, and passion.

This is a return – a remembrance of the corners of your soul needing light.
