These exercises will provide the opportunity to leave the retreat with a more expansive and liberated world view to bring more peace and joy into your life\, relationships and career. \nBreathwork – Explore the multidimensional nature of your being through breathwork led by a master facilitator. Breathwork practices provide an opportunity to release the aspects of ourselves we developed as coping and protection mechanisms or inherited in our ancestral lineage but no longer serve us in our present life. These powerful practices allow us to align to our authentic self and open to an expanded sense of being. \nMovement – Open and align the body with a variety of movement practices intelligently sequenced with the other modalities presented to move and amplify the energetic shifts created over the course of the weekend.

Optional river walks\, guided cold dips in wild and beautiful Kootenay Lake help us to reharmonize to our true nature. \nCommunity – Coming together in community with others of like mind and vibration is perhaps one of the most potent and powerful aspects of these retreats.
