  • Intention Setting. Intentions provide us the ability to activate our internal compass in the direction of our heart as we embark upon this journey. Setting an intention supports you in feeling agency for your life.  

  • Guided Meditation and Affirmations. Meditation calms your sympathetic nervous system, allowing you to rest, relax and activate the parasympathetic nervous system to begin the journey inward. Paired with affirmations, we activate and prime our brain’s reward centers by creating positive thoughts in present time and strengthening new neural pathways.

  • Breath Work Holotropic breathing technique involves controlling and quickening breathing patterns to influence your mental, emotional, and physical state and access altered states of consciousness. From the Greek words, "holos" (whole) and "trepein" (to move toward), the word "holotropic" translates to "moving toward wholeness." It’s super powerful!

  • Vocal Toning Breathwork taken to the next level with the sound of your voice.  Using your vocal cords, you will discover your own unique frequencies and come back into vibrational harmony. As we tone, we naturally slow down our heart rate, calm our nervous system and nourish our body in profound ways using the gift of our own internal instrument.

  • Sound Meditation. A sonic journey into your own inner landscape using rich overtone instruments like the gong and singing bowls to affect your brainwave cycles, neurochemistry, autonomic nervous system, heart-rate variability and subtle energy. The sound creates the stage for a deep, meditative altered state of consciousness.

  • Connection. Your healing is my healing is our collective healing. At the end of the journey after some spacious quiet time for reflection and journaling, we will gather in an integration circle.. time to share experiences, insights, musings, thoughts and feelings while sharing nourishing refreshments after the ceremony.

testimonials

  • "The journey was the most profound and cathartic experience of my life. I finally understand what it means to be in my body. 20+ years of talk therapy did not even begin to chip away at was I was able to release in one journey with Lisa. I did not even realize how much shame and trauma I was holding within. I am grateful beyond words and feel so much lighter, brighter and happier ."

    Phyllis Canter, San Francisco

  • "It's been three weeks since my group journey with Lisa, and I feel like a new person. For the first time in my life, I wake up with happiness, peace and clarity. My wife and children have shared with me I am much more present and enjoyable to be with. I am so grateful for how this journey has impacted my career and newfound life purpose. I still can't believe how grateful and energized I feel and am.”

    Jason Goldenberg, New York

  • "There really are no words describe how transformative a journey with Lisa is. Yet, because I hope everyone can have experience this, I will try. I've been to many healing events and weeklong retreats, and this 6 hour journey was remarkably different. What I was able to see, experience, release and welcome in was extraordinary. It's been over a year since my first journey. I've now also done 1:1 work and coaching with Lisa, and the shifts made in my life are miraculous. "
