Living with purpose retreat Itinerary
October 8-13, 2026 | $2,900
Apply by August 28th for $300 offEvery element of this retreat has been thoughtfully designed.
The schedule, the pacing, the balance of structure and spaciousness, time in the group and time alone—each day builds upon the day one before. There is a natural rhythm to the week that allows insights to deepen, relationships to unfold, and your experience to integrate as you move through it.
This itinerary is more than a schedule. It's an invitation. An invitation to slow down enough to hear yourself. To reconnect with your body, your joy, your intuition, and your relationship with the greater forces outside yourself. To remember that purpose isn't something waiting for you in the future. It's already expressing itself through your life. Sometimes all that's needed is the space to recognize it.
The mountains offer a sacred invitation. The Earth calls us inward. The night sky calls us outward. Together, they create space to remember that we are both deeply rooted and infinitely connected. Purpose begins to feel less like a destination and more like a relationship with life itself.
Like any meaningful experience, this retreat has a life of its own. While the overall flow of the week remains the same, we honor what naturally unfolds within the group and allow space for the experience to breathe.
Activities marked with an asterisk (*) are optional.

THE LANGUAGE OF Returning to PURPOSE
Day TwoEvery life is shaped by the stories we believe.
Some stories expand us. Others quietly keep us small. Many were never consciously chosen—they were inherited, learned, or repeated until they felt true.
Today we begin paying closer attention to the language that has been shaping your life. The words you choose influence your identity, your decisions, your relationships, and what you believe is possible for you.
During our cacao ceremony and workshop, we'll explore the stories you’ve been living inside and the language you’re ready to change.
Then we’ll head into town for an afternoon at a state park with pine trees and meadow trails before we gaze upon a scenic overlook. There will be plenty of time to talk, wander, take in the view, and let the morning’s work settle. We’ll finish with a picnic and some time in town before returning to the retreat house.
By evening, you may find yourself speaking about your life—and what you want from it—differently.

Let the Land Remind You
Day ThreeThe Earth has been here long before us, and it has much to teach those who are willing to listen.
Today, we leave behind the need to analyze, solve, or figure anything out. The invitation is much simpler: slow down, become present, and receive.
There are things we can understand intellectually, and there are things that become clearer when we get out of our own heads.
Today is intentionally spacious.
We’ll make the drive to a historic hot spring and spend time surrounded by forest, mountain air, and naturally heated mineral water.
There is nothing you need to accomplish here.
Soak. Talk. Be quiet. Wander. Journal. Laugh. Sit alone.
This day gives you room to notice what becomes clearer when you stop trying so hard to figure everything out.
By evening, we’ll gather again to explore what it means to Return to Purpose as something expressed through the way you choose, create, relate, and move through your life.

Day FourSURRENDER TO THE MYSTERY
This is what the week has been building toward.
The morning is slow and intentional. We begin with mindfulness, a light breakfast, and space to arrive fully in the body before the day deepens.
From there, we gather for a preparation workshop to clarify your intention, soften the places that feel guarded, and honor the journey ahead. The sound bath creates a bridge between preparation and ceremony, giving the body space to settle and the mind space to quiet.
Each person will also meet privately with Krishina before the ceremony begins. This gives you time to ask final questions, share what’s present, and determine your desired experience together.
There is no rushing this day. Every element is part of the preparation.
The ceremony begins around 5:00 PM. You’ll be fully supported from start to finish.

Day FiveIntegrating Cosmic Insights
After the the ceremony, the pace becomes gentle again.
We begin with breakfast, conversation, and an integration workshop where you’ll have space to talk through what happened, what stood out, and what you want to carry forward.
Then we’ll head to another beautiful hot springs.
The warm mineral pools, forest, and slower pace give you somewhere to simply be while the experience continues to settle.
There may be things you understand immediately. Other pieces may take days, weeks, or longer to unfold.
Today is about beginning to connect what you experienced in ceremony with the life you are actually going home to.
Your relationships. Your choices. Your work. Your creativity. Your boundaries. What matters to you now.
By evening, we gather for our closing ceremony and begin preparing for the return home.

Day SixTHE return
As the retreat ends, the practice begins.
The conversations continue over breakfast, but something has changed. The questions that brought you here have softened. New ones may have emerged. Others may no longer need answers.
As you pack your bags, you're not leaving this experience behind. You're carrying it into your relationships, your work, your choices, and the way you move through the world.
Purpose isn't something that lives on a mountaintop or in the desert. It lives in ordinary moments. In the conversations you have. The boundaries you set. The courage to follow your joy. The way you love, create, serve, and show up each day.
This retreat is simply the beginning.
