The Living Retreat

A Functional, Monthly Container.

Supported by your mentor, connected in community, rooted in the mystical, and integrated in daily life.

see the Two Ways in

Most spiritual people have more insight than integration.

You're probably one of them.

You’ve done the workshops, trainings and retreats. Read the books.

And still — you know you aren’t living the insight in the way you know you could.

Why?

What you’ve understood ≠ What you’re actually living

And unfortunately, we blame ourselves.

Actually, the model is broken, not you.
Spiritual practice is archaic and dysfunctional. THERE, I said it.

And I have the full picture to back this up. It’s not you.
Its a disjointed paradigm.

A collection of fragments handed to you from different teachers, traditions, modalities. Incoherent, and no chance that it will integrate and align with your unique functionality: your real life.

That’s not a personal failing. That’s a structural one.
Integration needs a container, not just more practices.

You need coherence:
Rhythm, support, community, and a teacher you can access.

A container that holds, inspires, regulated and deepens your life’s work.

 

Hello: The Living Retreat.

The Living Retreat

This is not a course to fit in.

This is something totally different, you might not even be able to believe it yet.

It's a container of support and guidance for you to get the most out of your healing, embodiment and meditation practice.

It's not a checklist of something you can fall behind in.

Its a slower, integrated platform,

where you can choose, explore, evaluate and accumulate the habits.

You know your desire: Embodiment, Spirituality and Alignment.

What if you could collapse your spiritual study, personal practice, therapy and professional development

— into one monthly rhythm?

Just one container, one purchase; consolidated and deepened.

Join a community of facilitators, parents, therapists, and longtime practitioners who are ready to leave a life of speediness and surface far, far behind...

Let me show you what's inside.

Is this rhythm right for you?

The Living Retreat is intimate, ongoing, and built for people who've already done meaningful work. Not another course to complete. Not another intensive to survive.

A rhythm that holds you — week by week, month by month — as the work becomes part of your actual life.

If something in you has been quietly nodding yes through this page, trust that.

FAQ

Who is holding this

Lead teacher

You already know me, so I won't give my résumé.

What's important is this:

I'm yearning to hold people in an integrated and transformational way. Over the last 5 years of running Therapeutic Embodiment trainings, I have seen our Monthly Live Retreats, Small integrated healing sessions and 1:1's become mind-bogglingly powerful.

And I want to make this intimately available to you. I've kept this small precisely so I can.

The Living Retreat is the thing I've been waiting to offer all along. The place where the work I'm known for finally meets your actual, ongoing life.

Let's watch your practice and life blossom together.

x Ava

One year. Two paths.

A year from now, you'll either be where you are now — with the same patterns, the same gap between insight and life — or you'll be living from a more aligned place. Heart open, your own coherent rhythm. Connected in your community and riding the upward spiral.

If you've been quietly nodding yes through this page, trust that.

The doors are open.

Love, Ava
