If you don’t know where you are going, how can you get there?

It’s time to create your future and step into your purposeful life @ this immersive day retreat with Kundalini yoga, art therapy and breathing to align with your soul’s true purpose. This retreat is perfect for anyone navigating life transitions, seeking clarity, or ready to bring their dreams to life. Guided by Esther Kalaba, a seasoned art/somatic psychotherapist and Kundalini yoga teacher, you’ll leave feeling aligned, inspired, and equipped to manifest your future with purpose.

Let’s dream BIG—together.

The two Equinoxes are powerful times of year where our meditations and prayers are amplified and increased. This is the most powerful time to meditate or engage in any spiritual/self reflective practice, as well as create the roadmap for the season ahead. In many cultures the ‘new years” are actually in the spring or autumn. 

This retreat will help you:

• Connect to who you really are.
• Access your deep intuition and your soul’s purpose.
• Create the visal road map of your life for the next 3 months, 6 months, & one year ahead. (Remember that your mind thinks in pictures!)
• Name the actionable steps so you can manifest your visions in the 3_D.
• Learn art therapy and yogic tools and techniques that break through creative blocks and get your juices flowing!
• Be held in a supportive community and have fun in the process: all seeds need good soil to grow 🙂 
• Have two times a year to reset, get clear, and focused. Equinox retreats happen twice a year. These are some of the most powerful times to re-align to your true self and purpose.

What it looks like?

Through the powerful practice of Kundalini yoga, breathwork, quiet reflection and active art making, you will learn how to deeply listen to your inner wisdom, manifest your visions through art, and embody your goals all with the support of a nurturing community encouraging you along. 

We will draw, we will talk, we will make art, we will meditate, we will move. Together, we’ll process the past and set powerful intentions for the next season.

What Awaits You:

• Deep Listening: Harness the power of Kundalini Yoga and breathwork to calm your mind, tune into your body, and connect with your inner wisdom and your soul’s deepest longings.
• Creative Manifestation: Through art therapy, translate your inner visions into tangible form. Through the power of images, colour, movement and shape give form to your dreams and begin shaping the world you wish to create.
• Embodied Visioning: Visioning is a full body experience. Charge your intentions with ancient somatic practices so that you can feel your reality shifting. This is amplified by the energy of the Equinox, a potent time for prayer and meditation.
• Be Witnessed: We cannot do these things on our own. Experience the power of being held in a nurturing community that wants you to succeed and holds you in love.
• Be Supported: At the SEED Lodge you have the chance to unwind and be taken care of. Upgrade your experience by staying on the Friday and Saturday evening to experience home cooked meals, comforting herbal teas, quiet, clean air and beautiful skies to expand your vision while you engage in the creative process.

• Those experiencing life transitions and seeking clarity on what’s next.
• Individuals navigating major life changes and feeling like their old life no longer fits but feel uncertain about what’s next.
