That’s a completely valid concern — and one we take very seriously.

At our retreats, your safety, boundaries, and autonomy are our highest priority. We understand exploring intimacy can bring up many emotions, especially for those who are new to this kind of work or have past experiences that make vulnerability feel challenging.

All of our facilitators are trauma-informed and trained to support participants with deep sensitivity and care. We emphasize personal agency and embodied consent in all of our practices and agreements, which means you are always encouraged to stay connected to your body and to honor your own authentic yes and no. No practice is every required, and listening to yourself is not only welcomed — it's both required and celebrated.

Our retreats are about connection, not pressure, or performance. They are designed to help you feel more at home in your body, in your boundaries, in your truth, and in your love, pleasure, and relationship.

Just as every relationship and individual is unique in their needs and history, no two retreats are the same, but most are We are here to be loving mirrors and strong mentors, helping co-create an environment that helps each of you invite in and master the most expanded versions of yourselves and your relationship. We have a myriad of practices, games, and exercises, from the cerebral, to somatic, to deeply spiritual, and everything in-between, you’ll be invited to use movement, sound, ceremony, touch, communication, emotional intimacy, pleasure, and even supplements if you desire, to help you move energy that’s blocking your intimacy and passion, allowing you to feel deeper, give and receive more fully, and connect in ways you never imagined. We are here to support whatever shifts you want in your life and relationship, and this will be a journey we build together. You can expect to laugh, cry, and feel deeper than you have in a long time, and we recommend a few days of softness following your retreat to rest, journal, and fully integrate your experience with us. Together, we will create a container in for your highest good and unfolding.

First and foremost, we NEVER want money to prevent anyone from participating in the programs and services we offer. We extend a sliding scale to improve accessibility, and we are fortunate to have a beautiful partnership with a local nonprofit that assists us in providing these healing modalities to families with extremely limited means. We ask everyone with an interest in this work to focus on their needs and wants, to offer and contribute what they can, and to trust us with the rest. Because we provide such a wide range of services, the investment for our programs ranges substantially, starting at just $200/day for larger group work, and increasing to over $2,000/day for private work involving complex, or substantial supplementation, facilitation, or guidance. If you enjoy the privilege of abundance, or you have the capacity to give more, I assure you every dollar goes to a good cause/every dollar you contribute subsidises applications with limited means, and we have a link for anonymous donations. If you currently fall on the other side of the spectrum, we understand the potential heaviness around receiving assistance, and the complexity of feelings that can come up around financial decision-making, and we hope you’re still willing to engage with by applying for a discovery call.

This is a question we get a lot. Ultimately, we are committed to this work because of how we’ve seen it impact the world. We partner with a few nonprofit organizations who can help with partial scholarships, but ultimately, if the need is there, we have alignment of values and energy, and your desire and capacity are strong, we will find a way to step into service. Until further notice, we are committed to not turning anyone away for financial reasons.

Our retreats take place in a peaceful, private natural setting designed to nourish your body, mind, and heart. The land itself is part of the experience—surrounded by evergreens, fresh mountain air, and flowing water, it offers a sense of serenity and grounding from the moment you arrive.

Lodging options range from a private yurt, cottage, or guest room in our home to camping, depending on your comfort needs and budget.

Retreats are hosted at our rustic home, an established permaculture farm, where guests enjoy farm-fresh organic meals and tranquil spaces for reflection, bodywork, and connection. The environment is both comfortable and invigorating, blending the beauty of nature with the comfort of curated care. Every detail, from nutrition to setting, is intentionally chosen to support deep rest, emotional openness, and the transformation you’re here to experience.

It's really your choice. We regularly host half-day, full-day, and multi-day retreats. We are told our techniques are incredibly effective and many report even a single day with us creates lasting transformation in relationship.

Most patterns of thought, behavior, and communication have been established and reinforced over many years, and entrenched patterns can take time to permanently replace. Our yield is often proportionate to our investment, and we encourage folks to tend to their relationship like they would any living thing they care about…with regular maintenance, care, and nourishment.

Your privacy is deeply important to us, and we honor the vulnerability it takes to even consider doing this kind of work.

All participants and facilitators at our retreats agree to uphold strict confidentiality. What’s shared in the space stays in the space. We create a strong container of trust and safety where everyone is respected — and no one is ever pressured to share more than they feel ready to.

We offer both group and private experiences, and both have their unique benefits:

• Group work can be incredibly powerful. It offers opportunities for shared learning, witnessing, and the realization that you’re not alone in your experiences. Many participants find deep healing in being seen and held in a supportive, non-judgmental community.
  

• Private work provides a more intimate, personalized container where you can explore at your own pace with focused attention and care.

Our methods and practices are fully adaptable to either setting. Whether you feel most comfortable working one-on-one, in small groups, or in a larger circle, your experience will be customized to your needs, boundaries, and comfort level.

You’ll never be asked to do anything that doesn’t feel right for you. You’ll be supported every step of the way in honoring your authentic yes, your sacred no, and everything in between.

We take consent EXTREMELY seriously here, giving special attention to marginalization and power dynamics that influence voice. Anything that doesn’t feel like a “hell yes” for you, at any time, is a “hell no” for us. Our commitment is to help you listen to your body, your heart, and your spirit on deeper and deeper levels and support your agency. There is no expectation, requirement, or plan for any intimacy, be it emotional, physical, or spiritual, without your enthusiastic desire for it. We will be checking in regularly, and there is NEVER any expectation to engage in or complete ANY exercise or activity here unless you WANT TO. This retreat WILL invite you to become more comfortable with the discomfort of growth…to stretch your capacity, but only to the extent you desire, and we are here to offer care, support, feedback, and our hearts every step of the way. That said, ensuring comfort is absolutely NOT our goal. The habits you have now and are comfortable with have gotten you to where you are -- longing for more. Most new habits and practices, ESPECIALLY the vulnerable ones, feel at least somewhat uncomfortable. If you said, “I feel uncomfortable with any degree of emotional, physical, or spiritual intimacy,” I’d probably steer you toward one of our other programs.

We absolutely support and encourage all parties to reach out to us in advance so we can be aware of each of your specific concerns, challenges, goals, and desires. This work revolves around YOUR highest priorities, and we want you to be involved in the cocreation process.

Our retreats are rooted in the principles of Nonviolent Communication, Internal Family Systems, and Emotionally Focused Therapy, we guide clients into deeper self-awareness and relational intelligence. Our Heart 2 Heart Method™ draws on extensive training in both modern psychotherapeutic methods—including Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy—as well as body-based and experiential modalities like Somatic Therapy, Dance and Movement Therapy, Art Therapy, Ecotherapy, and Vibrational Sound Healing.

With a staff of practitioners skilled in Neo-Tantra, Reiki, Yoga, Biofeedback, Thermotherapy, Electrical Stimulation, Massage, and Transcendance, we weave ancient wisdom with cutting-edge science to support nervous system regulation and holistic healing. Our work also integrates Neuro-Linguistic Programming, Authentic Relating, Wheel of Consent, and Erotic Blueprinting, offering a safe and expansive space for individuals and couples to explore desire, boundaries, and connection with intention and reverence.

We’re so glad you’re thinking beyond the retreat — because the journey doesn’t end when the weekend is over. In fact, for many, that’s where it truly begins.

We offer a wide range of comprehensive and customizable post-retreat support to help you integrate what you've experienced and continue to deepen your path of embodied intimacy and conscious connection. Our ongoing offerings include:

• Private Coaching & Mentorship – Personalized one-on-one support to continue your exploration at your own pace, tailored to your unique intentions and challenges.
  

• Couples Work – For those in partnership, we offer guided sessions to help you and your partner grow together in intimacy, communication, attunement, divine union, and sacred relating.
  

• Health & Nutrition Support – We recognize that the body is the foundation of all intimacy. Our holistic wellness specialists can help you align your physical health with your emotional and energetic growth.
  

• Body Care & Massage – Trauma-informed bodywork, sensual massage, and somatic practices are available to help you stay grounded, present, and connected to your body.
  

• Continued Deepening – Once you’ve completed your foundational retreat or private sessions, you’ll have access to our advanced intimacy offerings, where we explore practices that go far beyond connection and into the realm of the transcendent — including sacred union work, energetic intimacy, deep attunement, and expanded states of heart-body consciousness.
  

Every step of this journey is optional, personalized, and held in deep respect for your pace, your boundaries, and your evolution.

Whether you're seeking integration, expansion, healing, or the sacred, we’re here to walk beside you with care and intention.
