Athletes and creatives when in their greatness are tuned into an optimal somatic flow state where all of their thoughts drop away and they’re completely present and focused on what they’re doing. 

In this state their unique life force energy has connected to something greater than themselves, unleashing an uninhibited expression of that energy where anything is possible and the beauty of what comes through is astounding. 

Accessing this state regularly helps to ignite your creative flow, express yourself authentically, feel more alive and connected to yourself, deepens your self trust, helps you trust your intuitive knowing, increase your awareness and focus, and feel more relaxed with life.

At this retreat you’ll experience an approach using the mediums of glass, clay, paint, sound, movement and food to help you explore your creativity, tune into your creative edges and access your optimal somatic flow state so that you can expand into new experiences of the authentic expression of your creative life force.

We use multiple mediums because you interact with each of them in different ways, challenging you to push your creative edges and giving you a deeper awareness of how your unique life force energy connects with THE greater life force energy, rippling into your entire life and your relationship with everything.

Your creation process through these mediums is a metaphor for life, giving you a deeper self awareness.
