Sisterhood. When it’s true — has been one of the greatest pathways of liberation for me personally. 

Our 8th, and last retreat is approaching! 🥹🥰🤗

September 26 - October 2 on the Southern Coast of France 🇫🇷🌊🪩

Women have gathered in circle and danced together to release and remember for centuries. 

They didn’t call it healing. 

They were honoring their natural expression and way of being in their bodies, together. 

You don’t need another tool, journaling prompt, or meditation. 

I’ve learned and observed that our souls ache to be with each other as women. It’s a vital nutrient. 

Come remember with us. 

8 spaces remaining 🌹

Comment SISTERHOOD for all the info. 

~~ I loved putting this reel together from most of our previous retreats on what sisterhood means to me. I’d love to hear what it means to you! Drop your additions below 👏🏼 ~~

As someone who has struggled to take time for myself, especially while being in partnership, taking myself to Portugal for five days, was incredibly enriching. 

I had an opportunity to feel and see where I had been operating from old frames and identities, and simultaneously got to reconnect to the freedom of being exactly as I wanted to be in each moment. 

There’s more I could say, but, I’ll stick with… 

Woman, whisk yourself away. 

It is always deeply life-giving and it supports all other aspects of our lives when our cups runneth over 🌊👏🏼. 

For those of you that feel the pulse of aliveness awaken in your body as you read this…

Come meet me on another beautiful coast in Europe for our last women’s retreat in the South of France from Sept 26-Oct 2. We have 8 spaces remaining 🌹

Satisfy your soul.
Soften your body.
Revive your clarity.
Claim even more of your desires. 
Yum🔥

PS. Our villa is right on the ocean….💦

Unlimited skinny dips await you just steps from your room, endless bouts of laughter with other amazing women, sisterhood that feels like a balm to your soul, and so much more 🌊🧜🏼‍♀️🐬 

Comment OCEAN for all the info

I finally worked up the courage. I really didn’t think this was going to be as intense it was 🫠😂

@victoria__benitez you make this look so effortless and sexy

Raw garlic + local raw honey combo = a big boost to the immune system. It’s anti microbial, antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral. 

I can definitely feel the medicinal effects, so I will be repeating this, might just need a day to integrate 🤭

PSA - I recommend starting with less than a whole clove for your first time if you give this a go.

POV: You get the soul nudge to take yourself on retreat on Thursday, book the ticket on Friday, fly out on Sunday, and by Monday you are soaking up the sun, bathing in the ocean, and letting tension melt from your tissues without even trying. 

Your soul knows what your body needs. Trust the nudge. 

YOUR TURN 😉🌊💃🏻

Come join us for our upcoming Heart Of The Rose Retreat on the coast of Bordeaux, France from Sept 26-Oct 2nd, where you’ll wake up to ocean and forest views, step outside your room, onto the grass, down the stairs and float right into the waves of the bay, whilst being with an incredible community of women. 

Comment RETREAT if you’re ready to follow your own nudge too and we’ll send you all the info! ✈️✨🌹

The Spirit of Guardianship 

@mariamacsay and @mknbrd lead an incredible team of leaders and land stewards from @42acresretreat through a 3 night / 4 day leadership initiation on the land. Silent vigil, fasting, medicine ceremonies, breath, attunement workshops, singing to the trees and the sky and the great mother. 

Thank you to the foxes, hares, deer, boar, goshawks, moths, butterflies, slugs, snails, ticks, horseflies and the wild little bird who let Maria pet his head. Thank you to the ancient oaks, silver birches, nettles, yarrow, roses and brambles. This world is an incredible gift and we feel charged with life force, passion and remembrance. 

What an absolutely epic experience with a top-notch team of humans. Big gratitude everyone. 🙏🏼🌿🧬🔥 taken in 42 Acres by @mariamacsay

Bare feet.
Wild hair. 
Talking to trees. 
Dieting plants. 
Resting back. 
Observing nature’s beauty. 
Feeling (even more) deeply. 
Restoring safety in sensitivity. 
Channeling songs and poems. 
Communing with beautiful humans. 
Praying, thanking, praying, thanking. 
Surrendering into God’s timing.
Receiving and reveling in miracles. 
Loving deeper, opening to bigger love. 
Delighting in the pleasures of the senses. 
Embracing the abundance that is our birthright. 
Sharing in it all with community that feels like family. 

May we all continue to get wilder.
The wilder we are, the more honest we are.
And the more honest we are, 
the more free our souls are to emanate 
what they really are ⚡️🌹✨♥️

1. Honor your hunger cues 🌀
2. Honor when your body needs to use the bathroom (I know some of you are practiced in holding your wee, let it go 😊)
3. Listen to your body when it wants to move. Create space to move in a way that feels good, not one that is about achieving some goal or aesthetic. ⚡️
4. Get into nature. Feel the cycles of the day, of the seasons, and let yourself be filled with the beauty around you. For women, begin to tune into your cycle and learn what’s most supportive to your body in each phase. 🌹

This is the baseline. 

When the temple is not tended, the muse doesn’t come. 

When all parts of us are tended to and honored, creativity and intuition come naturally. We are all natural born creators. 

We’re weaving this into The Circle — body, mind, and soul coming into coherence so that our channel is clear and connected. 

We begin on Sunday ✨

What other some other simple practices that support you in getting in touch with your creative and intuitive channel? 👇🏼 by @mariamacsay

When women gather 😍

We remember our radiance is the source of our joy. 
Not what we do, not how much money we make, not what others think of us, not what we have. 

The joy comes from living in the freedom of being our true selves in the witness of others. 

I continue to see sisterhood metabolize shame, clear sadness, and awaken aliveness when women come together. In our togetherness, we are the medicine of remembrance, co-creating a space of unapologetic expression. 

These are just a few of the stunning photos @natalieocchino captured from the Worthy Retreat in April. Thank you for the way you see and capture life!

For those of you who are holding the prayer to be with amazing women who live from the heart and you’re feeling a resonance with this sentiment, here are the two final two circles I’ll be holding this year: 

⭕️ The Circle — A women’s mentorship collective for creatives and entrepreneurs. We begin this Sunday, June 14th — on a new moon, new beginning.

Women with wild souls and tender hearts, this is for you! 

We bring you the Heart of The Rose Retreat in the South of France this September. 

There are some experiences that ask to be explained, and then there are the ones you feel in your body before you ever have words for them.

Take a moment to feel this with us....

Morning light through the windows.
Ocean views from your room. 
Beautiful, colorful, chef-made meals. 
Sea air on your skin. 
Private beach at the foot of our villa. 
Conversations that last a lifetime. 
Shaking ass on the full moon. 
Bare feet. Laughter. Connection. 
A nervous system that fully exhales.

Heart of The Rose is a feminine embodiment & somatic retreat of inner revelation, revealing what’s true, bringing us into remembrance. 

Here we come back to the power that lives within the simplicity of being true to who we are when we are resting in the throne of our heart.

The Villa itself is a breath of fresh air — right on the water, resting on the Arcachon Bay with a forest just behind it, that immediately changes your pace. The kind of place that invites you to savor. To breathe deeper. To let beauty work on you.

This all-inclusive luxurious feminine retreat designed to hold you in beauty, embodiment, pleasure, and care from the moment you arrive.

Your experience includes:
• A luxury stay in Villa Sur Mer in the south of France
• Arrival transportation / pickup from the airport
• Exceptional chef-curated meals throughout the retreat
• Embodiment & somatic experiences designed to support your reveal
• Intimate time with an incredible circle of women
• Horseback riding on the beach
• Sand dunes adventure
• Tour of the local town
• Sauna in-house 
• Spacious moments for rest, connection, beauty, and integration
….and a few unforgettable surprises that only those who come will get to discover!

We have 8 spaces remaining. 

All of you is welcome here.

Our time in Ojai this year was deeply alive and woven with such glorious abundance. From hawks, hummingbird guides, dueling mountain lions and the birthing of an entire generation of squirrels, to a kingdom of cloud, bright and clear constellations of the night, live oak power wands, fired clay acorns, bald eagle feathers from Lakota masters, spirit poems, medicine songs and a richness of community I couldn’t have possibly dreamt up from the best of me. 

I witnessed the trees unmask their sacred forms in new dimensions. I witnessed the land open its soul and reveal its holding patterns, wounding and suffering—asking to be seen by loving eyes and a grounded heart. I witnessed a rhythmic pulse between the bioweb, the human spirit and the structure of the altar, inviting an ancient harmony to return and be known. The old way is waking up in a beautiful way indeed. 

Human beings are extraordinary creatures. Eager. Brilliant. Complexly individual and yet so indistinguishable. Through the heart, we are one body, one soul, one mind. We are the medicine for one another. May we not turn away from being seen and known and felt, hiding behind false veils of mastery, shame and individualism. 

My firey water soul fiancé @mariamacsay wove her medicine with the tobacco altar in full force during this MTD. She brought her 15 years of healing the emotional body and its connection to physical health during our morning sessions. Primal Body Mapping is officially a modality we embrace in this community. And what a gift from beyond to walk alongside my soulmate, honoring the flame of the soul in practice. 

After 4 years, Sacred Tree Keepers fully birthed in these two weeks. The spirits of the Northern Hemisphere master trees are waking up for the first time in centuries, after wave upon wave of imperial hatred for the peoples of the Earth sent the forests into deeper meditation, awaiting the moment when there would be those who might listen again and sing of the flame which knowns neither beginning nor end. The white lion is awakening and behind it a phoenix rising into source.

Thank you @thegregmoran @mateoshumate333 & @grantneubek for your devoted guardianship and love. taken in Ojai, California by @mariamacsay

Our next Master Tree Diets will be in England this August and we’re thrilled to team up with @42acresretreat to go deep with the beautiful lands of Somerset. 

42 Acres centers around a consciously restored 15th century Hermitage. The land is lush and wildly alive with native trees, creatures and waters. We are very much looking forward to the privilege of working with the heartbeat of the land there.

English Oak, Silver Birch or Metasequoia will be available as primary Teacher Trees, alongside Tobacco. All trees will be locally harvested in Somerset, England. 

Our rooms are almost sold out and canvas bell tents with beds are available. This is our only Master Tree Diets in Europe this year, so if the magnetism to pray in the old way with the @sacredtreekeepers community is alive in your heart, come and take your place by the fire. 

With love and gratitude 🙏🏼 🌈 taken in 42 Acres by @mariamacsay
