"Return to Self" Weekend Co-ed Spiritual Retreat

Welcome to the "Return to Self" Weekend Co-ed Spiritual Retreat! Join us for a transformative experience where you can reconnect with your inner self and find peace in a serene setting. This in-person event starts on Fri May 30 2025 at 4:30 PM PDT at 8088 High Rd. During this retreat, you'll have the opportunity to participate in various spiritual activities, workshops, and meditations designed to help you rediscover your true essence.

The "Return to Self Retreat" was created by psychiatrists, psychologists, physicians and spiritual healers with over 100 years of combined clinical experience, and is designed to assist those in search of a deeper understanding of the experiences in our lives, and how these experiences mold one's future self. Elevation through self-awareness requires the ability to extract the lessons in each experience through a daily practice which utilizes mind, body, and spirit.

Awareness of Self is the only way to stop the cycle of trauma in which one re-experiences the same "unlearned" lesson again and again, through subconsciously summoning ('auto-pilot mode') the same trauma through our templated responses to the same stimuli. The "Return to Self Retreat" imparts its participants with vital, yet simple tools to stay grounded in order to attain a life based on fearlessness, self-love, and gratitude. These are the key ingredients to manifesting your highest version of yourself.
