Where do I begin.... Flying down, I was under the impression that this was going to be a yoga based "retreat"...by the end, I was pleasantly surprised on how much more it offered me on multiple levels, and I left yearning for more. This trip, this initiation, was a life changing experience and altered my path moving forward.

The vegan food was amazing, best I've ever had. The Thea retreat venue was beautiful, calming, and tranquil. We lucked out with great weather and had epic sunsets every night.

Charlotte and Jeff are a thoughtful teaching dynamic duo whose respective knowledge & skill sets complement each other more than I think they realize.

I came to the initiation on the brink of giving up on my current path, which by the end, I realized was more of a "loop" that was so overdue to be broken and more importantly let go of. I arrived with many questions and problems to share, along with asking for emotional help for the 1st time in my adult life. I was so grateful to leave with honest feedback, answers, and solutions to put into practice.

For those of you considering to take this journey and accept the initiation opportunity, consider this;

Look at this as an investment in yourself and your well being, from an emotional, mental, and physical perspective. What you will learn and gain from Charlotte & Jeff is invaluable in your circle of life moving forward.

Constructive questions will be asked. Propositions will be made. Deeply rooted emotions & feelings will be uncorked. Productive feedback and learnings will be derived via the connection "experiments" in the daily workshops. Genuine, raw, true love will be shared with each other.... Tribe will be forged and you will leave with unbreakable human connections that you can lean on for support along your new path.

2 quotes to share that ring so true in hindsight;

• “Community (Tribe) is so important. Isolation is perhaps the singular root of all disease. It is impossible to start on a healing mission alone.”
  

• “A goal without a plan, is just a dream”

Awaken Thy Soul… Oh what a journey. What a ride!

How can I sum it up?! I’m not really sure…

But I do know one thing, and it is that my life has changed completely.

This week was so much harder than I could’ve expected. But I realized that change hurts (maybe because Charlotte kept screaming “CHANGE HURTS!” - in the kindest voice and with the most sincere smile - whenever someone wanted to give up on themselves).

This week I felt things I didn’t even know existed within me.

I made deep emotional connections with people who were complete strangers to me a few days before. I feel so much love for my tribe and I received sooo much love from them.

My heart melted.

I feel exposed.

I’ve stretched my boundaries while finding my center and rooting my core.

I feel expanded.

There are new things bubbling inside. Things that were numb and now are entering my awareness.

I feel truly awakened in my body, mind and soul.

Jeff, Charlotte, thank you so much for sharing your wisdom, showing me your hearts, and giving me actual and practical tools to continue on this path of learning, expanding, and awakening my soul!

It is hard to sum up into words the unique, transformative experience that took place.

Yes, I knew going in that we were going to practice a lot of breath work, and actively try to awaken our emotions, but what this week turned out to be was a life changing experience, a start of a deep emotional healing process.

Already after the first day, I looked at myself in the mirror in the morning, and something was different. I was very excited for what the week ahead had for me, and it was beyond all expectations.

A real tribe was formed, as we all supported each other in the processes that arose.

My body received a much needed cleansing with the 2.5 days of delicious juice diet, as well as the amazing raw and vegan foods prepared by the superchef Lisa.

The workshops, breath-work, and yoga, led by Jeff and Charlotte, who I am so lucky and proud to have had the chance to learn from in this lifetime, gave me the tools to keep the flames of feelings and emotions alive after this week. What a transformation this has been.

I hope Jeff and Charlotte will continue to spread this knowledge and I hope that this important work reaches many people. I will certainly do my part in passing forward the lessons I have learned.

The heart is wide open!
