Mastery Retreat 2025: The Magic of the Group Container
Uncover the magic of the group container with Back to the Body™
October 8 - 15, 2025
Open to only 8 women, Mastery: The Magic of the Group Container is a chance to dive even deeper into the power of the group container, at a gorgeous location in the Southern California high desert. By Invitation Only, once you say yes to Mastery you will immerse yourself in the deepest of experiences with our team and the sisterhood that gathers.
Mastery will be held at our home in the high desert, a place where magic whispers through the rugged desert landscape, intertwining with transformative possibility. Its iconic Joshua trees stand like sentinels, their twisted branches reaching towards a sky painted with hues of orange and pink during the sunset, or glittering with a tapestry of stars on clear desert nights. Amidst the sun-drenched and ancient rocks, there's a palpable sense of serenity and rejuvenation. The quietude of the desert encourages deep introspection and personal growth, while the vibrant bursts of life – blooming cacti, wildflowers after rainstorms, owls amidst the scene of surreal beauty – inspire a profound connection to nature and oneself. This sanctuary amidst nature's raw beauty offers a space for healing and renewal, and is known as a haven for artists, adventurers, and seekers of harmony. It's a place where you can recharge your spirits, nourish your bodies with wholesome cuisine, and forge meaningful connections with like-minded souls in a setting that feels timeless, mystical, and transformative.
