Embrace Your Light

A Day of Release and Rediscovery

October 8, 2022

Coal Creek Canyon, Colorado

Immerse Yourself…

As autumn encroaches, and the light dims as winter approaches, we look to the light within. It’s time to embrace your own light, to find gratitude in what you have gained from your inner harvest, release the energies that no longer serve you, and rediscover the love for yourself.

Join us for an immersive experience and retreat to Embrace Your Light on Saturday, October 8th, 2022.

A soft check in begins at 8:00 AM. We’ll begin our empowering journey together with a morning gratitude meditation by the fire, complete with all inclusive nourishing meals/snacks, engaging deep down with nature, dynamic mindful workshops, a captivating sound bath, plenty of time to reflect and mingle, and a fireside drum circle accompanied by a full moon release ceremony and delicious Wassail (homemade mulled non-alcoholic apple cider) to warm your soul.

We are so excited to explore, support, and engage with each one of you. Holding sacred space for 15 adult participants to allow for an intimate and powerful experience. Early bird registration opens now with a waitlist opportunity. A rustic experience on forested private property near beautiful Golden Gate Canyon State Park, in Coal Creek Canyon, Golden, Colorado with use of private modern facilities, including workshop space, included.

Immerse yourself and relax as you are gently cared for and empowered. Listen to the wind in the pines and watch the yellow and orange aspen leaves drift to the ground. Nourish yourself with time to reflect in a hammock or journal by the fire. As the sun begins to set feel the ambience of fairy lights and the warmth of the fire circle as you gather with other like-hearted souls rediscovering your love for yourself. Leave with new perspectives and tools to continue to embrace your light in your daily life.

Small groups of 2-3 are encouraged to join this experience together. We will see you soon!

Hosted by Kristy Riveland with Soul Water Studio, Jamie Everton with Sacred Symmetry and Melissa DeRenzo with Blossoming Lotus Sound.

    Reiki is a holistic Japanese technique for stress reduction, relaxation, and spiritual healing. This non-invasive approach requires the placement of the practitioner’s hands over the body or in some cases resting gently on the body. Reiki originates from the root words Rei, meaning higher knowledge or spiritual consciousness, and Ki meaning life energy. Reiki, as a whole, is spiritually guided life energy. It is no secret that we are all made of energy along with everything that surrounds us. Our bodies are susceptible to illness, disease, and inflammation when there is a restriction in the flow of energy. Not only does this cause physical ailments but it also causes emotional turmoil and stress.

    Reiki seeks to restore the flow and provide balance through immediate stress reduction, relaxation, reduce anxiety, pain management, and activating your body’s own natural ability to heal itself promoting overall well-being.

    Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) is an alternative treatment for physical pain and emotional distress. It’s also referred to as tapping and is similar to acupressure. EFT is helpful in treating those with anxiety, phobias, and PTSD. EFT focuses on the meridian points — or energy hot spots — to restore balance to your body’s energy. It’s believed that restoring this energy balance can relieve symptoms a negative experience or emotion may have caused. By tapping on these meridians while expressing a positive affirmation designed to restore the flow of energy, the physical as well as mental pain and anguish can be greatly diminished or eliminated. It has been an authorized treatment for war veterans with PTSD, and it has demonstrated some benefits as a treatment for anxiety, depression, physical pain, and insomnia.
