About this trip
MenoMagick Retreat - Understanding Menopause, Identity, and Spirituality through Yoga and Transformational Inner Work
Please join me at my MenoMagick Yoga Retreat in the beautiful mountains of Topanga, CA!
This very special long weekend is designed to empower women who are navigating the complexities and opportunities of perimenopause and menopause.
Menopause can be a wildly transformative phase in a woman’s life, often characterized by a range of physical, mental, and emotional changes. Despite its universality, stigma, societal constructs, and internalized shame often force us to face these challenges in silence and isolation.
It’s time for a change!
Let’s normalize the menopause experience, get educated, do our deep inner work to transform limiting beliefs, and step boldly into the wisdom and empowerment that age and experience bring.
This intimate and soulful retreat is designed to support and empower you through every stage of menopause, from perimenopause to postmenopause. Discover how this transitional period can be a catalyst for self-discovery, radical self-acceptance, and spiritual growth.
During our time, we will use embodied practices to reconnect and embrace our changing bodies and reflect on themes such as identity, age, and attachments and how menopause can be a powerful process for introspection and growth. This period of reflection allows us to confront and release outdated beliefs and societal constructs, opening the door to a deeper understanding of who we truly are, who we are evolving to be, and the roles we want to play going forward in our one precious life.
MenoMagick is not just about managing menopause—it's about transforming your experience into something magickal and spiritually transcendent!
Through specially designed ceremonies, we will transform the experience of aging into a sacred, empowering initiation, opening us to the Mystery and connecting us with Spirit in a way that only age and experience can.
Let’s embrace this significant life transition with strength, humor, resilience, and inner peace. Whether you’re just beginning perimenopause or have transitioned into postmenopause, my MenoMagick yoga retreat will support you in navigating this journey with greater understanding, agency, acceptance, and joy.
Retreat Highlights
- Yoga and Mindfulness: Experience rejuvenating yoga sessions, calming meditations, and mindfulness practices to reduce stress and enhance emotional balance.
- Nutritional Delights: Savor delicious, balanced meals rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and plant-based proteins to support hormonal health and overall well-being.
- Lifestyle Inspirations: Learn practical lifestyle changes, including regular exercise, stress reduction techniques, and sleep strategies to manage menopause effectively.
- Self-Care Rituals: To nurture your physical, emotional, and spiritual self, indulge in luxurious self-care activities such as massage, hikes in nature, acupuncture, hot tub, dry sauna, cold plunge, shopping in local artisan stores, swimming in the Pacific Ocean, or find a cozy spot to sit and journal.
- Inner Reflection: Engage in deep emotional inner work to foster understanding, healing, acceptance, and empowerment.
- Spiritual Awakening: Deepen your connection with the Divine, trust your inner guidance, and explore personal development and purpose.
- Community Connection: Connect with a supportive community of peers, share experiences, and participate in empowering workshops and events.
There are also many places for quiet time, like the sun patios or cozy up to the large living room fireplace in the 1920s Spanish Mission-style house.
The highlight of this week will be a special ritual practice at my yoga yurt, which overlooks the Pacific Ocean and offers views of Los Angeles.
This place is so spectacular and utterly sacred to me and my family's hearts. It is our joy to share this space with you and create an opportunity to experience Southern California in such a treasured and special way.
Join me for this unique opportunity to connect with your body, mind, and spirit. Transform your menopause experience into a powerful journey of self-discovery and empowerment in the beautiful mountains of Topanga, CA!

Things to know
📍 Address to the property will be given the week before the retreat starts.
👉 Substance-free retreat
A substance-free environment is one in which all guests agree to keep their space free from substances at all times. Substances are defined to include alcohol, cigarettes, other smoking materials, and illicit and illegal drugs.
👉 Like adult summer camp - We're all in it together!
This is not a retreat center. The property is a private house on 9 acres with "glamping" style cabins and rooms throughout the property. Every room on the property will have shared bathrooms. Meals will be "family style," where we serve ourselves and assist the chef with rinsing our dishes and preparing them for sanitizing after meals.
👉 Close shared spaces
This is a very communal retreat with shared bedrooms and shared bathrooms. Some beds may only be 3 feet apart from each other. If, for any reason, you do not feel safe being in such close quarters with other guests due to concerns about Covid-19, it's best not to join this trip and wait until a time that feels best for you.
Cancellation Policy
Due to the exclusive offering of this retreat to Seane's mail list and the lead time to fill your spot. It makes it difficult for us to react to last-minute cancellations after the eblast has been sent out.
Because of this, we must enforce a FIRM cancellation policy.
Terms:
👉 If you need to cancel more than 30 days before the start of the retreat, there will be a $500 processing fee (your deposit), and the remaining balance will be refunded to your card.
👉 If you need to cancel 15-30 days before the start of the retreat, you will receive a 50% refund of the full cost of your spot.
👉 If you need to cancel 0-14 days before the start of the retreat, you will receive no refunds.
In addition, in the event of fires in Topanga or COVID-19, we may need to reschedule this retreat. If so, we will refund you for your full amount minus any losses we may incur due to unforeseen circumstances that are out of our control. It is in our best interest to refund you in this type of situation. We cannot be responsible for any losses with airfare, transportation, or any other additional costs incurred during the planning of your trip.
🚨Travel insurance is STRONGLY advised to cover you for any unexpected circumstances.
🚨There are no exceptions with our cancellation policy due to the contractual commitments
we have with our vendors. Unfortunately, we are not able to credit towards future offerings or transfer amounts towards online classes.
🤎 We appreciate your understanding of our cancellation policies 🤎
Getting to Topanga
Getting to the property…
The address is released the week before the retreat starts.
LAX Airport is approximately 25 miles from the property
Burbank Airport is about 27 miles from the property.
The drive from each airport can take about 45min depending on traffic conditions. It is Los Angeles, where traffic can be at any time of the day. So please plan accordingly.
A car can be convenient while in Topanga for the week but unnecessary. There always seems to be the right number of people with vehicles willing to arrange for groups to go into town or on hikes. Many people arrange to carpool to and from the airport via our FB group. This is how a lot of friendships are made!
If you prefer more freedom and/or solitude while traveling, get a car. There will be lots of parking available on the property.
Cabs, Lyft, and Uber will all take you to the property.
We ask that guests do not arrive any earlier than 3pm. This is a request from the property manager.
There are many things to do in Topanga if you need to kill some time, and the property is a 10-minute drive from the main town. Once you register, you will receive a digital packet of things to do in the area.
Email jessica@seanecorn.com if you have questions about arranging your travel plans.
On your way home…
Going from the property to the airport can take longer, and we suggest giving yourself at least 1 hour - 1.5 hours for drive time to be safe. If you have a rental car, give yourself some extra time.
If you’re booking a pick-up, please schedule the car beforehand since a lot of car services do not pick up in that area.
The last class ends at 11am, and brunch is at 11:30am on Sunday. Check-out is at 12pm.
