Simple Sophistication
EMPOWER YOUR HEALING | FIND YOUR LIGHT
May 16-19, 2024
We are all born from light, and the mission is to find our way back to that light.
On this retreat, we learn to peel back the layers that were put up for protection - layers that block us from our own light.
Come connect with other women on the same path as you learn ways to empower your healing so your light shines bright again.
Turning Pain into Power
find out how
As we process through our pain, we shed these layers -oh so many layers! But each layer shed alchemizes the wound and brings us closer back to our LIGHT, to PEACE and FREEDOM in our souls.

There are many modalities to healing and no one thing will "cure" you. This is not Western medicine where a pill will temporarily patch up the problem.
The combination of holistic healing modalities on this retreat aim to heal the deeper spiritual and emotional wounds that we carry...to release the energetics of them from the body, to alchemize the pain as we take time to dive within ourselves to receive powerful self-realizations and healing.
✦ GROUNDING - We start by grounding ourselves outdoors among the red rock canyons of Sedona so that we have a solid foundation to do the healing work over the next few days.
✦ AWARENESS - Next, we engage in a few activities that help build more awareness of ourselves. Here we learn the root causes of what is holding us back.
✦ RELEASE - When past wounds are not healed, they remain stuck in our body, in our energy field. It's important to know effective exercises to release stored trauma from the body. The key to seeing a change is your commitment to a consistent practice.
✦ NURTURE - Nurture your spirit as you heal. Inner child work, yoga nidra, self-regulation techniques for calming the nervous system, time in nature. As we heal, we also need to nurture ourselves.
✦ UPLIFTED - Feel uplifted by singing! Every human loves to sing. When we sing in circle, it doesn’t matter what your voice sound like. It is more a feeling; the vibrations of sound soothes our bodies, and we feel a sense of great connection and harmony with those in the circle. Leave with a big smile and full heart!
A medicine horse healing is an invitation into self-awareness. Experience how horses can teach us about our own innate nature.
We will learn more about who we are in the reflective mirror of the horse.
Sound vibrations can break up energetic blockages in the body to help release stored trauma and ease depression and tension. These stuck emotions can wreak havoc on us. Sound vibration is a way to start releasing these energies from our bodies.
The healing energy of Sedona is palpable, but especially here at the Peace Park. We will spend time feeling into the beautiful energy here as we walk the trails, practice yoga and meditate at the Peace Park. Time for reflection here is deeply healing.
Offers breathtaking views of the red rocks with a fire pit and hot tub for stargazing nights.

I participated in a weekend retreat with a small group of women and I was absolutely blown away by the level of support, preparation, intention, and love that was put into it. Lynn is an incredible facilitator who holds space so beautifully and makes it so easy for you to feel safe to open up from the heart. I felt extremely safe and nurtured in this loving space and I was able to really dig deep and feel held in an unconditionally loving container. It was an extremely empowering and healing experience and I would gladly do another one!
The things I feared most were not physical, but emotional. Fear of failure, rejection, and professional inadequacy controlled my life and I wanted to amke a change but didn't know how. I wanted to gain tools and perspective to attack and overcome my fears - and by attending, I gained all of that AND met some amazing women who in spite of their own reasons for attending gave me motivation, encouragement, and support!
The most important journey you'll ever make is the one inside yourself.
I believe we are born from light, and we are here to experience all of life: the beauty, the love, the shadows, the pain. Every single one of us experiences challenges throughout our lives.
Sometimes the trauma from these events are so severe, that we build up thick layers of protection. I sure did after enduring years of emotional and sexual abuse. The work and joy is to shed these layers, so that we come back to the light that resides in us.
I am an intuitive healer, medium, and yoga therapist specializing in trauma healing, and I would be honored to walk this path with you.
