Not About Learning Something New, But Feeling the Old
This retreat isnāt about learning more concepts. Concepts keep you in the mind. I will help you go beneath the conscious mind to feel what is old. To feel what has been stuck there. The repressed emotions, memories, trauma, attachmentsā¦when you fully feel theseā¦they pass through and your brain no longer has a reason to create the symptoms.
What You Can Expect
AT THE RETREAT
Explore the Root Causes
Michael will guide you through guided meditations, silent sits, and emotional discovery practices to help you illuminate the deep subconscious matter that can create chronic symptoms.

Each day, we will get in some health movement via a flowing yoga class. As a Certified Yoga Instructor, Michael will craft unique and potent sessions built for balance and harmony.
Meditations + Breathwork
Go deeper than ever before with guided meditations and breathwork practices. Calm the nervous system, go into the subconscious mind, and release habit patterns of the mind.
Root Cause Release Sessions

Itās So Crazy, You Donāt Have to Do Anythingā¦
A few months ago I did a 5 day solo, silent meditation retreat. My conditioned mind DEFINITELY did not want to do it. It likes to stay busy. To think, to plan, to fantasize about the future. A few days in, I felt tremendous energy releases that are difficult to describe, and was experiencing larger and larger gaps of no-thought. The biggest takeaway was so clear. You donāt have to do anything, and it all happens.
When you STOP the doing, and lean into beingāthereās the magic. This is what Iāve seen happen to attendees of my retreats too. The fixing, figuring out, trying to heal is so much work, gosh thatās so much resistance. If you finally let the dust settle, you can hear the message your body has been trying to tell you. Many people just scrape the surface with 15 minute meditations or journalingā¦but when you stop everything for two days, with nowhere to go, nothing to do, it becomes revealed and can be felt.
Some people are not willing to do this, they would rather stay on the hamster wheel of the mind trying to fix it. The thoughts and repetitive patterns ARE THE PROBLEM. You have to stop engaging in them to feel the subconscious patterns from the past that have been running the show beneath the surface. This is your invitation to let go and free yourself. See you soon!
