FEATURED JOURNEYS & ACTIVATIONS

WELCOME CEREMONY: RELEASE & RENEW JOURNEY
Embark on this sacred journey by joining your fellow travelers in a reverent ceremony, invoking the blessings of the elements and setting intentions for your transformative retreat experience. Shed the weight of limiting beliefs, ancestral patterns, and stories that no longer serve your highest good. With each guided breath, you are supported on your path to release, making way for a luminous transformation.

CULTIVATING SELF-LOVE JOURNEY: INITIATING THE LOVE OF YOUR SPIRIT GUIDES
A serene experience where soothing celestial melodies guide your heart through a journey of healing and rediscovery. Embrace the soft opening of your heart, unlock deep-seated emotions, and allow yourself to receive the gifts that lie within you.

Awaken the potential that lies dormant within you and step into your true essence. With each harmonious vibration, embrace the profound connection that your spirit has with the universe, and manifest your dreams with unwavering intention.

THE FUTURE IS PERFECT JOURNEY: DOORWAYS TO A FUTURE YOU
In our daily lives, we often find ourselves confronted with a myriad of uncertainties, giving rise to feelings of anxiety, anger, depression, and a palpable disconnection from our higher selves. Under AJA’s expert guidance, participants are gently ushered into a hypnotic state, where they have the opportunity to envision, create, and establish a profound connection with their future selves.

SPIRIT GUIDES JOURNEY: MEET YOUR SPIRIT GUIDES
Open your heart and spirit to the wisdom that flows from the realms beyond. Allow your spirit guides to share their divine insights and nurture your soul with purpose and direction.

MESSAGES FROM THE OTHER SIDE JOURNEY
Have you ever wondered why the answer to a question that you’ve been agonizing over for weeks will suddenly pop into your head? Do you ever get a feeling when meeting someone for the very first time? These feelings and epiphanies stem from intuition and the gentle psychic nudges of spirit guides who are always with you. During this transformative workshop, AJA will equip attendees with essential tools to harness their intuition and amplify their psychic capabilities, opening newfound strength and boosted confidence.

CLOSING CEREMONY
Join together once more for a final moment of gratitude and intention setting that will move beyond the retreat and ground you back into your daily life.
