Advanced-Level Lightbringer Retreats

           Advanced-level lightbringer retreats are designed specially for the seasoned seeker. One who has come face to face with their shadow enough to know that it is nothing but the absence of light. A absence of faith. 

           An advanced-level lightbringer is a humble warrior. She knows that the brighter she shines, the greater the shadow. He knows that there are invisible forces, conceived of in his own consciousness, whose only job is to keep him distracted, and off his path until the day he dies. 

          Though, the advanced-level lightbringer knows that death is merely an illusion. Therefore, his every action is not dictated by it, but inspired by it. 

The advanced-level lightbringer is unafraid to feel, as they know that at the core of every emotion is a nugget of wisdom, which their soul is gently communicating to them. 

The advanced-level lightbringer makes no excuses. She takes her lightbringing seriously, and the maya lightly.  After all, he’s got gifts to deliver, and time is a tickin’.

Retreats for the advanced-level lightbringer are ‘iron-sharpens-iron’.  It is a safe place for hearts to soften, for barriers to come down, for relationships to heal, for full potential to be unleashed, for shadows to be illuminated, and for forgiveness to take center stage.

A lightbringer is only able to shine so brightly because they are willing to go to the depths of the darkness, knowing that the light they carry will always guide their way back home. 


What Is Shadow Work?

  • I Am on 'The Path', but it Feels Like I'm Hitting a Wall.

    So you've been on the path of spirituality/self-awareness for a while now, but you seem to have lost some momentum, and as much as you try doing spiritual things, it still feels like you're stuck in the mud. This is likely because it is time to address the shadow.

  • What is Shadow Work?

    In our childhood, we have been told that parts of ourselves are unacceptable. So we grow to feel disjointed, and unfulfilled. Shadow work is the practice of meeting the parts of ourself that we exiled, in order to remember, and embody our true wholeness. It is to hide nothing from ourself, and with that, accepting and loving ourselves fully.

  • What Are Benefits of Shadow Work?

    Shadow work deepens and heals relationships with family, friends, partners; it heals generational trauma, it offers the opportunity to gain control of your habits, and changes the way you treat yourself, and others.

  • I'm Already Spiritually-Oriented. Do I Need Shadow Work?

    If you: talk negatively about yourself or others, if you get triggered by others, if you think you are better/know more than others (superiority), if you feel inadequate around others (inferiority), if you experience stress, laziness, hide any part of what you do, overwork, have uncontrollable destructive habits, experience mental health difficulties like anxiety or depression, chronic fatigue, chronic pain, self-soothe with drugs or alcohol, or anything in this realm, shadow work can most definitely benefit you.

  • Is Shadow Work Dangerous?

    Not doing shadow work is more dangerous than doing it. Not doing shadow work, you risk passing generational traumas down to the next generation. Whatever is inside of you is already acting itself out. Looking at it gives it an opportunity to be seen and held in a safe space, so that it doesn't have to destroy your life, career and relationships in order to get the attention it needs to heal.

  • Will Shadow Work Work for me?

    If you are willing to see, the shadow has no choice but to be transformed. The real question is, 'will you work for it?'

FAQ

  • Why the coaching 5 weeks before and 2 weeks after?

    The 5 weeks of group coaching before the 3-day retreat serves to create a sacred space, and to cultivate intention, where all members of the pod feel safe to go deep, and feel held enough to face their shadow selves. The 2 weeks after are necessary to integrate the wisdom learned at the 3-day retreat into every day living, and to better innerstand the alchemical process that occurred in-person. This allows lasting change to take place, rather than just going to a retreat for a quick-fix, just to slip back into old patterns again.

  • What if I can't attend the zoom meetings beforehand?

    While the 5 weeks before the retreat are an excellent bonding & deepening opportunity, the meetings will be recorded, and it is possible to have a powerful experience at the 3 days on-site alone.

  • Do you offer refunds?

    If you cancel your trip, the organizers do not offer refunds for any reason. A portion of your payment may be used as credit for another retreat and must be taken within two years of your original retreat date. We will gladly transfer your credit to another guest. Depending on when you cancel, cancellation penalties may apply. Fees are determined by the following schedule: If you cancel more than 90 days before your retreat start date, 100% of your payment may be applied to another Retreat. If you cancel 60 – 89 days before your retreat start date, 75% of your payment may be applied to another Retreat. You will forfeit 25% of the price of your retreat. If you cancel 15 – 59 days before your retreat start date, 40% of your payment may be applied to another Retreat. You will forfeit 60% of the price of your retreat.
