A retreat to align with your sacred feminine essence through the deep grounding volcanic presence of Mount Shasta.
|
Mount Shasta is known as one of the most sacred places on Earth and is called by many people the magical mountain. The mountain is located in the Cascade Range in northern California. It rises around the picturesque mountains in the Siskiyou County at an altitude of over 14,179 feet above sea level. It is also one of the largest dormant volcanoes.
It is a legendary and mystical place since known history. Locals believe that this mountain is truly magical and there are many stories that have baffled and delighted, not only the local Native American population, but also thousands of people who have visited this magical wonder of nature throughout the years. Natives have always considered this mountain as a sacred place and in recent decades, it has been connected to a mystical power that emanates peace and harmony. Some believe that Mount Shasta is closely related to mysterious flying objects, and some have ventured out and said that there are secret underground bases located inside this magical mountain. For this retreat, we will be gathering in sacred circle to delve into the offerings of the abundant natural landscape of this unique mountain to explore or inner world of mystery and magic through the teachings of archetypal goddesses that offer us the support we need to move through our lives with peace, harmony, and flourishing creations. There are several options for this retreat experience which may include 1 or 2 Aerial Yoga Teacher Trainings in the local town of Chico, California at Freebird Aerial Yoga or you may simply attend just the retreat without the Aerial Yoga Teacher Trainings. See below for more information. |
