Explore Expanded Consciousness

In this retreat, we invite you to slow down and join us for a remarkable week of expanded states of awareness with Holotropic Breathwork®, shamanic journeys, and guided sound meditations, balanced with timeless naturopathic wisdom and mindful time in nature.

Holotropic Breathwork® or “moving toward wholeness” allows for self-exploration and healing through a deep inner process to uncover unconscious material. With the eyes closed and lying on a mat, each person uses their own breath and the music in the room to enter an expanded state of consciousness. This state activates the natural inner healing potential of the breather, or inner healer, which guides the experience. We will create a safe space and our team are all highly trained and experienced Holotropic Breathwork® facilitators.

We will also explore core naturopathic principles: the healing power of nature and how the body can heal itself when the root cause of health symptoms is treated and not suppressed. Dr. Tom will curate naturopathic talks and group discussions based on his holistic practice using an intuitive and functional approach to whole body care. He will share important strategies and solutions for a healthy microbiome; nutrition and diet trends; neuroplasticity and brain health; adrenal stress; and pain and inflammation.

In this retreat, you will experience:

• Four Holotropic Breathwork® sessions (two as a breather and two as a sitter)
• Naturopathic teachings and group health discussions
• Guided sound meditations and Shamanic journeys  
• Mindfulness and nature-based practices
• Movie yoga  
• Embodied movement and dance celebration

You will leave with valuable tools and naturopathic pearls to take charge of your health and live a happy and integrated life.
