A retreat for you to tend to your inner light.
August 28-30, 2026 in McCall, ID
Your radiance is energy. It surfaces when you clear the noise, set down the shoulds, and come back into alignment with your body and your own deepest knowing.
There is a quiet voice in you that already knows. It often speaks at night when the house finally goes still. It knows there is a different way to move through your days, your work, your body, your relationships. And most of the time you talk yourself out of it, because the life you planned is reasonable, responsible, and approved of by everyone around you.
This weekend, you get to listen instead.
We are gathering ten women at a private home on Blackhawk Lake near McCall for three days of yoga, meditation, ceremony, reflection, and real connection. You will eat beautiful food you didn't cook. You will rest. You will move energy that has been stuck for longer than you knew. And you will leave reconnected to the woman you have been quietly becoming all along.
In yoga we call this svastha — abiding in the self. Your natural state of wholeness, waiting underneath everything you carry.
You have a daily practice, or the beginnings of one. You read the books. You understand the connection between energy, belief, and the life you live.
And you are tired of being the responsible one. Tired of holding it all together for everyone else while your own desires wait their turn. You feel the pull toward something more alive, and you want a few days to actually follow it.
If you recognized yourself in any of that, come. This weekend is for you.
The Heart of the Weekend: The Divine Flow
Everything we practice together moves through one idea, the Divine Flow — the dance between creation and surrender.
Most women live at one extreme or the other. Some grip their vision so tightly they strangle it. Others let the vision go completely and call the collapse "surrender." The Divine Flow is both at once…holding a desire clearly while releasing control on how and when it arrives.
Over three days you will feel both currents in your own body. You will name a desire and give it fire. You will learn to let go of the outcome without abandoning the dream.
Three teachings we’ll explore…
-
Kriya
Kriya means action. These are precise sequences of breath, movement, mantra, and mudra that move stuck energy and shift your frequency. Think of them as formulas: do the practice, feel the state change. We will explore what Kriya is, the effect it has on your nervous system, and how a few minutes a day can change the energy you bring to your whole life.
-
Shiva & Shakti
Shiva is consciousness, the still witness, the grounding current that brings spirit into form. Shakti is energy, the creative spark, the rising current that longs for freedom. Their dance creates everything. We will work with both inside your own body and feel how creation and surrender belong to each other.
-
Bhakti
The path of devotion. When you let your heart lead instead of your effort, you stop gripping and start flowing. This is love as practice, and the doorway back to yourself. At the retreat, we’ll work with it together through mantra, movement, and rituals that will allow you to release control and receive the moment.
