THE SACRED REBEL COLLECTIVE RETREATS

Intimate, immersive experiences to help you radically shift from self-abandonment to embodied, authentic self-expression.

At Our Retreats You’ll…

  • Ignite the freedom of living with E.A.S.E , Embodied Authentic Self-Expression

  • Be invited into a safe, trauma-informed group experience

  • Have a safe environment to practice being your authentic self with others

  • Experience and practice being held, witnessed and accepted by others

  • Practice being present with big emotions and learn to self-regulate and ground to create inner safety

  • Explore your boundaries, learning how to truly embody your “sacred yes” and “sacred no”

  • Re-write narratives of past emotional pain

  • Deepen your connection to yourself and your soul’s inner desires

At our retreats, we want to create a space for you to feel…

  • Held.

  • Safe in sisterhood.

  • Nourished.

  • Safe to release.

  • Witnessed in your play.

  • Celebrated in your authentic expression.

Our retreat experiences create radical change because you…

  • Avoid wasting time in healing modalities that don’t work!

    • Save time on your healing journey by experiencing a condensed version of healing modalities and expertise that have been proven to work through individual and group work with thousands of others.

  • Learn how to create a sense of safety in your body using trauma-informed approaches

    • Without utilizing trauma-informed modalities and creating safety with your body in a way that is supportive, you can create more distress and trauma for your system

  • Experience (in real time) the healing power of community, which is necessary for healing relational wounds (emotional pain and traumatic experiences that took place in relationship with another person or a group of people—think experiences with your parents/caregivers, siblings, partners, religious communities, coworkers, bosses, friends, etc)

  • Have an opportunity to express and explore embodying your authentic self in a safe space with others

    • Exploring your authentic self individually and healing in isolation can only go so far—expressing yourself in a community context is necessary to embody confidence in your authentic self-expression. Think of it like practicing being yourself in a safe space!

What Retreat Participants Are Saying…

  • I was very hesitant to come to this retreat—as someone who has never done group work, I worried about being in a group of strangers. I was concerned the timing of the retreat may not be the right time, or I wouldn’t arrive in the right headspace. I was fearful of how my own health and mental state would exist in this experience. I have no words to describe how unbelievable and life changing this was. I was supported and taken care of from the moment I expressed interest in the retreat - Dani got on the phone with me and helped me work through my hesitations, supportive of whichever way I decided. The retreat itself was perfect in every way thanks to Dani, Amelia, and Elena. I felt taken care of. I felt like I was on a 5 star vacation. I was seen, heard, witnessed, supported. The schedule flowed beautifully and flexibly from one experience to the next. I feel alive again. This experience was everything for me and I highly recommend any offerings provided by this group of powerful, knowledgable women.

  • An incredible experience. Very enlightening, educational, and soul soothing. The participants and the atmosphere made it a very memorable experience. And I feel as though I have made lifelong friends with everyone there. I already made plans to attend The Sacred Rebel Collective's next retreat, wherever it is. This was one of the most meaningful experiences I’ve ever had in my life. I learned the true definition of sisterhood and unconditional love and support. It was all the more meaningful because it came from women I’d never met before, but who were of a like mind.

    T.H.

  • Expansive, nurturing, gentle, safe, transformative, integrative. I have been to 3 week programs, week long intensives, day long retreats and none compare to this retreat. The nervous system regulation blew me open. I found myself gradually and gently sinking into my body, my self worth, my energy. There was no pressure to have a breakthrough. No pressure to any more than our bodies felt called to do and that permission alone felt incredibly expansive to my parts. My parts felt safe. I felt safe. I came home rooted in myself and the comfort of the support of the earth in a way I haven’t experienced before. Warm, gooey, soft, flow vibes.

    S.R.

  • What I loved most about going on retreat with Dani, Amelia, and Elena is how effortless it was to flow in and out of deep, soul filling sharing to playing and laughing to dancing to crying and everything in between. There’s truly space for it all and it’s incredible what started to happen as I learned to trust the space that they were holding. I started taking risks- I shared parts of myself I had been to afraid to share before. I let myself be louder than I normally am. I let myself cry and be witnessed. I let myself dance and be witnessed. I learned through countless moments; so much healing can happen when we are seen.

    B.B.

  • The retreat was an opportunity for me to show up, bring my whole self, and soak in a truly safe space. Not only that, but I was honored to be present with other women courageously showing up and bringing their full selves. I had the opportunity to practice giving and receiving love (as presence), and to practice embodiment within a community. I felt held, seen, and supported. As said before, this experience lives on in my body as a true game changer. I left with new neural pathways created through connection- inroads to a more whole and integrated self, healthier relationships, and fulfilling life joy.

    M.H.

  • Some of us came in not knowing each other but the facilitators did an excellent job at making us all feel at ease and comfortable by the end of the retreat we all left with a sisterhood bond that cannot be replaced. We were able to open up, play and work through any uncomfortable moments that rose up. One of the most fascinating parts of this retreat was the facilitators were there with us every step of the way, it wasn't just us putting in the "work" they did too. They cried with us, they held us, they challenged us. I left feeling a new sense of sisterhood and community that I had been longing for.

    K.E.

  • After leaving the retreat the happiest and most peaceful I had ever felt, I checked back in with myself a month later and can positively say the effects of this retreat are life changing. With the help of the wonderful facilitators I left so much of my old self in the desert and I am so grateful for that! The support and love I experienced was so beautiful. There was so much support from everyone involved that we felt safe to let go of things holding us back from life. The only bad part was leaving! Can’t wait for the next one!

    C.B.

It’s an honor to hold space for you.
