What would shift if you saw everything - your body, your story, your relationships, your becoming - through the lens of love?
Not the love that requires perfection. Not the love that comes with conditions. But the deep, unwavering love that sees you whole.
That is the invitation of this retreat.
For the fifth year, Sacred Woman Collective journeys into the high desert for a weekend of healing, awakening, and sisterhood. Set against the ancient beauty of Morongo Valley - where the sky stretches endlessly and the land holds centuries of wisdom - we gather to slow down, turn inward, and remember who we are beneath the noise.
This year, we are so thrilled to welcome a new special guest cohost: Lavinia Errico, co-founder of Equinox Fitness Clubs and the visionary founder of JoyLift.
WHAT AWAITS YOU
Nestled within a serene 5-acre ranch bordering hundreds of acres of untouched California preserve, Morongo Valley Ranch is more than a venue - it is a living sanctuary. Home to rescued horses, mini donkeys, chickens, dogs, and cats, this land holds a tender, healing energy that you feel the moment you arrive.
Over two transformative days, you will experience:
✦ JoyLift Movement - Lavinia Errico's signature methodology that ignites your life force, awakens the body, and leaves you feeling vibrantly, joyfully alive
✦ Releasing Tension & Stress from the Body - gentle, guided practices to help you let go of what you've been carrying
✦ Guided Horse Healing Meditation - a profound and deeply moving experience in the presence of the ranch's magnificent horses
✦ Sacred Circles - the heartbeat of Sacred Woman Collective; a space to be witnessed, heard, and held
✦ Sound Healing - let the vibration move through you, releasing what words cannot reach
✦ Transformative Breathwork - this practice has the power to open doors within you that you didn't know were closed
✦ Nourishing Meals - lovingly prepared, enjoyed in community and in nature
✦ Gifts & More - curated with intention, just for you
