"In our process of living, we can get caught up in our own self-centeredness and lose touch with who we are. This special weekend allowed me to access, appreciate, and grow my self-love and make decisions from my heart. My ability to love is much greater than I imagined, and I am grateful it's never too late to love. Everyone who attended, including the facilitators, contributed sincerely from their heart. Everything happens for a reason, and I can now feel and develop the love I seek within myself and with a romantic partner."

LEARN MORE ABOUT THE RETREAT IN THIS INTERVIEW
We talk about our single retreats and conscious dating and share our stories.
We all deserve to find our beloved, which starts with honoring ourselves. This video will also give you a sense of who we are together.
This experience may provide more blessings than you realize.
Love is all about spacious, deep connections. Conscious, loving relationships are about being fully present with another person while attuning to and honoring ourselves.
Unfortunately, our modern lifestyle often does little to support this. The daily grind of most people’s lives can be so full of pressure and stress that they try to ‘squeeze in’ quality connection time with Spirit, themselves, and others. The breakdown of our society and relationships is mirroring this to us daily. You deserve more than that!
Technology can leave many of us more disconnected from one another. Our lifestyles can often become focused on devices and modern conveniences that have created a chasm between us and our heart—and the healing presence of nature. (Let’s go back to our roots!)
Consciously creating time for genuine connection is more important than ever.
- Connection to Self
- Connection to other kindred Souls
- Connection to nature
This powerful combination of heartfelt nourishment not only brings beauty and meaning back into our lives, it is also what ultimately heals our world.
