Destination Retreats
Asheville, North Carolina, October 18-20, 2024
Meet Your Spirit Guides Retreat
Ever wanted to conspire with a dragon, cavort with a fairy, or embody an eagle?
Would you like to know more about your spirit guides? Or perhaps you’d like to feel more support, trust and ease in your life in general.
Whether you’re completely new to working with spirit guides, or you have daily meetings with your “divine team,” this retreat will help you deepen your relationship with them. Collaborating with your guides can lead to a life that’s more rich, meaningful and powerful. Not to mention more easeful and supported!
This retreat invites you to explore and deepen connections with your guides, within yourself, the medicine, and with others. If you feel called to harvest more support and connection, this Fall Equinox retreat is for you.
Join me and two fellow Guides for a ceremonial weekend at Sky Temple, a gorgeous private property in the mystical Blue Ridge Mountains. This retreat provides a unique opportunity to dive into your consciousness, receive powerful insights, and potentially create lasting change in your life. With the guidance of our dedicated team and the companionship of like-minded participants, you will experience profound personal and communal growth. Will you join us on this adventure of growth and connection?
Benefits of Joining (Beginners Welcome!)
Group journeys are unique. When we go deep as a group, our field is more powerful than that of one individual, and we can personally accomplish emotional and spiritual evolution that wouldn’t be possible in a one-on-one journey. We also get the opportunity to heal and transform as a group, and to send that beautiful energy of transformation into the collective of Earth.
Profound connections with a beautiful group of fellow travelers. Many of us make lifelong friendships here!
Opportunities to give and receive help and nurturing from fellow travelers
Foster deeper, more enduring, and trusting relationships in your life
Bring more purpose to your life
Experience healing of your body, mind and soul
Take a break from your routine and technology, to support creating positive change in your life
Journey in a safe and supportive container
What’s Included:
A pre-retreat one-on-one preparation session with Shane to clarify and support your intentions for the journeys
A profound 3-day retreat set in an awe-inspiring mountain-top location in the magical Blue Ridge Mountains… Don’t be surprised if the deer and turkeys join us!
Two powerful medicine journeys - these are the heart and soul of the retreat. We’ll work with “heart medicine” the first day and “teacher medicine” the second. The first day’s journey eases us into our own personal themes and opens us to healing and transformation. The second day’s journey builds powerfully on what the first day revealed. If the weather cooperates, we’ll journey in a mystical sun circle on the mountain top

SUCCESS STORIES

“I found Shane a year and a half ago when I was experiencing profound loss and grief. Shane's holistic approach helped me change unhelpful behaviours and patterns, titrate off three psych meds, and showed me a path forward into healing and growth. Shane's intuitive sense of what has been needed at different points in my journey has been deeply insightful, offered with gentle care and concern. I find myself more grounded, confident and at ease than I would have thought possible in the time since I started working with him. He is a gifted healer and I am grateful to have found my way to him and the healing community he has created.”

“Shane’s group medicine journeys are truly incredible. The whole weekend retreat is a ceremony. We begin by calling in our guides and allies, and sharing our journey intentions with the group. Throughout the retreat, Shane leads solo and shared exercises designed to help us explore our edges, deepen our journeys, and create camaraderie between the journeyers. My experience was that these exercises directly and positively impacted what I experienced in my journeys. We also close the retreat with reflections and ceremony.”

“Shane has something “in his carpet bag of magic” for every moment. Time and time again, I am impressed with what he has to share with me and other dear friends that he also guides. I can’t imagine doing this deep healing work with anyone else – mind, body, spirit and emotional alignment. My healing, learning and growing has by far exceeded where I would have imagined I would be. Life with Shane in it is just that much more beautiful – he guides me to come back home to a more grounded, open, aware, present, powerful and conscious me. There are so many good things to say about Shane and to sum it up, I would say that Shane is Pure Magic.”
